Wednesday's Gym--Day 12

Happy Hump Day Everyone Hope you all had a great day yesterday. I didn't get out & ride my bike this morning because it's raining like heck out there. Doesn't look like it's gonna let up any time soon by the look of the radar. OK, MOTHER NATURE....NY DOES NOT NEED ANY MORE RAIN RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hmmmm, think she's listening???? Anyway, if it stops, I'll try to get out there this afternoon or later. I have to lead the support group tonight plus get 2 hrs of overtime in today soooo I'll be cutting it short....trying to remember "30 Minutes for Me"..... Anyway, the scale is gonna stay at 185.5 for now I guess. That's ok July 2 189.5 July 3 189.5 July 4 188.5 July 5 186.5 (2.5lbs from 100lbs since surgery) July 6 186.5 July 7 187 July 8 186 yeah July 9 185 July 10 184 July 11 185.5 July 12 185.5 Have a wonderful day everyone Love you all Tammy

Good morning!! Wish we would get a little rain! It's been hot here in so. cal!! Went to see my sister yesterday. She's in alot of pain but was able to stand for a while. I cant beleive they want ya up and movin so soon after surgry! They say the more ya move the sooner you'll heal! Thats true I gess. Came home from work yestrday and in the evening rode my bike for about an hour. Then took a 20 min walk afterwards. Not to bad!! Although the scale has not moved!!! But I am noticeing that my clothes are alot looser!!!! Gess I'm adjusting? Anyways I'm happy with that! Hope the rain stops Tam!! Everyone have a great day!! ((((((((HUGS))))))) sheree 285/193(still!!!)/140ish!!!

Yes, it's surprising how quickly they get you up after major surgery. It's a good thing, don't want to get pneumonia. Keep up the great work, I'm sure the scale will catch up sooner or later. Tammy

Hiya! I didn't get my walk in like I planned yesterday. I went home with a damn migraine! I slept for about 4 hours when I got home. I haven't been sleeping well and I think that is why I got the migraine. I probably won't get more than a mile in today. I will walk to my tanning appt instead of driving if it doesn't rain. It has been sprinkling off and on all morning. But we NEED the rain here! It's been nice and sunny and hot for about the last 3 weeks straight. Our lawns are all brown! I will walk alot this weekend. My daughter has a basketball tournament over in Spokane. It's about a 6 hour drive. But the plus side is our hotel is about 1.5 miles from where the games are being played so I am hoping to convince someone to walk with me! I might be on my own but thats ok too. I am a big girl (not so big anymore!!) and can do it alone! She has 3 games on Saturday so that would be 9 miles?? Maybe I will just walk to one or two! My weight is stable again at 170 and I am NOT complaining. It was nice to see the 160's for a minute and I know I will get back there again. Especially if I walk 9 miles this weekend.... But hey, I am wearing a pair of size 8 Levi's today! Sure, they are stretch, and Levi's run big but still, a size 8 and I can even breath and didn't have to lay down to zip them up!!! In case you are wondering.... they are Levis 515 Nouveau Stretch Bootcut. Take care and have a GREAT day! Lori

Hey, Size 8 WOW..... yes, I am interested in what type of jeans you have. Always looking for comfortable fit & hey, if you can fit in a smaller size & still have the comfort...........WOOO HOOOOO.... What store did you find them at? I'm guessing you will be in the 160's after the weekend. Good for you .... Sounds like a busy one for you, but exciting. I hope your daughters team does well. Sorry to hear about the migraine. I know how they can drag you down. Hope you are feeling better. ((((HUGS)))) & Tammy

Hey Tam! I actually buy MOST of my jeans off of Ebay for cheap! The average cost for a pair of Levi's in the store is about 35-40 dollars. I get mine off of Ebay for anywhere from 10-20 dollars. I know Walmart sells the Levi's Signature Series but not the Nouveau style. JC Penney carries Levi's too. Thanks for the luck this weekend. They are gonna need it! Good teams are going to be there. Last year was tough. The migraine is still hanging around. Four days now... ugh! But it IS tolerable at the moment. See ya! and hugs! Lori

Hi Lori - when it comes to shopping- I always forget to check on EBay first.. which vendor do you use for the jeans? I work in ecommerce and technology- and dont really like paypal- but I would use a vendor that someone else recommended. I did buy a halloween costume from ebay last year- it was a custom made can can outfit and I became very friendly with the vendor. Turns out her mom had WLS surgery and lost 150lbs- so we became friendly and have stayed in touch. So if you want a sexy halloween costume- I know who you can talk to! Hugs, Donna

I buy from various vendors on Ebay. I don't always use the same one. I have only had one single issue over the last 6 years I have been on there and she eventually sent my stuff after almost 2 years! I will definitely have to check with you around Halloween! I LOVE dressing up! Lots of love, Lori

Hiya!! It's HUMP DAY!! So get that HUMP moving! LOL! My son has been working weird hours at Home Depot- one day 6am-3,9-6, 2-11, etc so yesterday I headed home thinking I must workout.. and my son had begun a BBQ. And since I complain I am indoors all day, I enjoyed having dinner outside instead of having dinner OUT. ( we eat out sev times a week), plus Im solo a lot- and today we have leftovers.. and when that was all done- it was 9pm.. I got caught up on all my Tivo shows (has anyone been watching Last Comic Standing? Its hilarious) SO I did NOT get to gym yesterday..today is my "dance night" out - haven't gone in like 3wks..and I'm def planning to start dancing Friday night. I am thinking of getting in some aerobic activity beforehand..but once I hit the gym..I like it too much to leave. LOL One of the many things Im happy about- is my cardio & ability to dance. I have always been a great dancer, & I probably will get thirsty before I get tired, and for many years it was the other way around. It's HUMP DAY! Get up offa that thing & dance till ya feel better!

Dancing ....sounds fun....... You are doing awesome. It's a great feeling to succeed isn't it??? Sounds like you had a nice dinner with your son. Good for you that you have a such a great relationship with him. That's certainly hard to find these days. Have a great day Tammy
