Exit 12. Time to make it happen! (I'm not THIS bad! But still... LOL!)

I lost over 40 lbs last year but gained it back slowly when I went to care for my grandmother on her death bed. I was not able to do a lot for myself as I was doing everything I could for her. After that I never quite got back to my plan! But now it's time to do it! :)

Uh, if that makes any sense... ;)

I don't know if you noticed it but, I like how the creases actually look like an up arrow! :)

I was focused on the guys bearing the burden and, uh, what they were bearing. ;)

If I am in any way "ass"ociated with a bug butt then it's good! ;)

Bug butt?

OK, this is terrific! :-D

And she DOES remind me of Jabba... poor thing!

Nixie, you changed your hair again.

You see? I'm paying attention. ;-p

LOL

:)

LOL!

if it makes you feel better I myself could lose a pound or ten.... you don't feel better do you :(

LOL

Thinking of you lol

We have worked on our abs today at least.. well I have with laughter!! still giggling over 'ahoy' tho!!... you...your good you :) thx nix

HA! You have me laughing over that too! It's hard not to laugh when I think about it!

I don't know how true it is but they say a person can burn up to 40 calories for 15 minutes of laughing. So I think that counts as exercise! :D

I reckon we can smash 40 cals and get up to 100 plus you know!! told you im back now so we will have a giggle AGAIN! remember our stool memes OMG:)

Then you came back at the right time! There seems to be a sudden spike!

step right up step right up!!

Thanks! It was too easy to get fat and not notice because it wasn't like my clothes felt tight being stretchy as they were. Jeans will not stretch so it's maintain it or burst a seam! LOL!

I coincidentally am starting on eating better this week and getting more cardio in my life. lol It's gonna be a battle, but here's to sticking with it for both of us. :-)

Thanks! It seems that getting started is always the hardest part! Our home has up stairs, down stairs, and basement stairs. All of which I must take daily, I have a habit of running up the stairs anytime I have to go between levels. That has to count!

I am trying to get in better shape too so I can do what I have been wanting to for a while now. I felt I was about ready to try at the end of last year but I got sick quite badly around Christmas which put me back some. I know what it's like when one feels like quitting. But that is when you gotta keep pushing forward.

Stay strong Nixieknox, you can do it :D

Thanks for the encouragement! I have had a few times where I would be doing well then suffer an injury or something like that. Getting back up and trying again is mandatory for success! I hope you're back in good health and ready to tackle it!

1. Make a plan.
2. Do the plan.
3. Live the dream.

Plan underway! :)

I had trouble with an overactive thyroid, which you would think would have made weight loss easy. I guess I'm an outlier.

I was happy with my weight until my 40's, so I guess it's not the story of my life, only the past 10 years. I guess we can't be perfect.

Same! It's like we flip a switch when we get to this decade.
