Post for the week

Hi Everyone Hope you all had a great week. Of course my goal for last week was to get my treadmill back into my house & get moving. Did I you ask well no... .....but I did do some massive housework on Sunday & I did walk a mile today. Boy it felt good to get out there too. So this weeks goals....walk at least 1 mile 2 to 3 more days this week & cut back on carbs.... My weight.......not good I know that I had been holding around 184...& yup I have gained 10 lbs... This morning 194........ I refuse to go up any further. Will be back below 190 by this time next week... Hope you're all doing well. Take care Tammy

Hey Tammy! Thanks for posting! I haven't gotten my butt out there walking yet either! But it's always there on my mind! I have been having some serious shoulder/neck pain for about 3 months now. Had an MRI last month and they found 4 bulging disks in my neck. Been on pain killers and going to the chiro weekly. Gets better and then I am back to hurting again. I have to go see a neck/spine specialist to see if they want to do surgery or give me injections. Of course I don't want either of them! My chiro thinks he can make it better without surgery or injections. Seems to be helping but with the way my desk is arranged at work, it feels like I take two steps forward and one back. I have a work order in for the maintenance dept to come fix things. Hopefully the change in positioning will help. We shall see! But my goal is to check into the local gym here this next week. I found out today that it's only around $20 a month just to go in and use the treadmill etc. I think that is a pretty good deal. I don't need much more than that! And with the icky weather we have been having here, it seems like a good fit. I don't have a working scale at home but I think I have dropped a couple of lbs since my weigh in with the surgeon's office. So I feel good about that. How is everyone else doing? Miss you guys!

Hi Tammy, My goal for January is to get a treadmill so that I can force myself to walk while I'm in front of the boobtube instead of sitting on my duff! I just have to find one that won't fall apart or be so loud as to make it impossible to hear the TV for under $300! Dawn
