good for you Barbara, joining the gym is a great idea!
what time are the classes, before, after or during work?
I'm anxious to ask the hotel next to the college about the pool use. There was an agreement between us for use of gym and pool, but that was many many years ago. Maybe I can beg and plead with them as I hobble on crutches, maybe I'll find a sympathetic ear? probably not
but its worth a try.
I decided to skip jiggy today, everyone went back to work, the house is quiet again! I had intentions once the plow guy got here to sneak to the mall and return a xmas gift (great exercise crutching around I tell ya), but when I opened the door there was a sheet of ice the length of my car (bf probably did it on purpose because he knew I'd try and go out
). Needless to say, I asked the neighbor to move my car when the plow guy got here, closed the door and watched a couple mindless judge shows on tv...
I do have a couple yoga and stretching shows on tivo and will get a little jiggy while doing the stretch show today.
congrats again on the gym membership Barb, a step in the right jiggy direction

I can't wait to see how it goes. We had about 5 more inches of snow yesterday and we never left the house. Our local newspaper said we have had 39.9 inches of snow for December alone. So I didn't go and get the milk I needed for my protein shakes and I intended to make some white bean soup and forgot to soak my beans overnight. What a poor planner I am! I can't wait till tomorrow to see how it is going for you - I am right behind you! Barb

Sometimes...well most times...I wish I was rich enough to just "order" my meals and someone would buy all the ingredients, prepare it, and put it in front of me to eat. How nice would that be?
I am on my 4th bottle of water which will be a little over 64 ounces so far and the bathroom and I are best friends? Why do we need a gym???!!!!
I am glad you are jiggy with it today! Stay focused! Barb

Barbara,
I started the 5 day pouch test today. I'll let you know how it goes.
Good for you for signing up for the classes and still being committed to walking
your 10,000 steps.
Have a great day, Rick

Good morning Barb,
Good for you! Sounds like a plan to me!
I am jiggy with it also today. I made my plan and am sticking to it. I think I might float away here soon though. LOL I've been through 50.7 ounces of water so far and a large coffee already.
Normally also I don't feel hungry but for some reason today I keep feeling little hunger twinges. Lunch is only a short time away so I should be ok.
I brought a salad with some grilled chicken.
Not sure if I'll make it to the gym tonight or not. I guess I shouldnt be indecisive, I should just say I'm doing it, but I just can't at this point. Not been feeling 100% and it's so dang cold out, I'll probably just want to get in the house and stay. LOL We shall see.
Have a good day.

I went downstairs this morning and joined the gym at work. Tuesdays and Thursdays I am planning on taking classes - on Tuesday the Step Classes and on Thursday the Aero-pump - a low impact class with hand held weights. I will alternate on Mon, Wed and/or Fri doing the machines. The classes are 45 minutes classes. I don't think I will go 5 days a week because sometimes you just have to do some things at lunch during the day, but I do plan at the very least on the 2 classes. I still want to try and get my 10,000 steps per day in also.
I didn't start the 5-day pouch test today - I didn't get my act together and get my stuff organized, but probably will start it next Monday.
Are you making any New Year's jiggy resolutions and what are you going to do?
Hugs to all...Barbara

Topic: RE: Dairy is becoming a BIG problem
this hasn't happened to me, but I get similar symptoms 1.5 hours after I eat foods that are too high in refined carbs (white pasta, rice, bread, chips, pretzles, shredded wheat, etc), it also happens to people who eat sugary foods, 1.5-2 hrs later their blood sugar drops. after finding a post on the grads board, I found it was called Reactive Hypoglycemia.
heres my post on the grads board if you wanted to compare symptoms
