Friday's are my personal trainer day, so I off to the gym I went and my trainer asked me to do my warm-up on the ellipictical, so I made a face, as the ellipictical has never been my favorite workout tool, she says, it warms up all the muscle groups, just try it, so off I go ready to crap out in 5 minutes, well I did 7 and decided it wasn't so bad so bad after all, after our workout routine, I went back and did 31 minutes of cardio on the ellipictical. I felt awesome and while my legs were a little rubbery, but it was a great workout! Then I went shopping and found some clothing at JC Penny's, 3 pair of slacks and two tops in size XL and one pair of Gloria Vanderbilt slacks, a great sale day, $100 for all that and size 16P, though the Gloria's are too big and have to go back. Can you feel my smile, cause it's the size of Texas! Hugs, Laureen

My Mantra is that I do not determine my success by the number hanging in my closet, nor will I let the scale determine that success either. . . It is through trial and error I will continue to grow and succeed. . . Laureen

Yay Laureen! I can't wait, first of all to be excited about exercise, and second to fit in those sizes. Good for you, it's got to feel good.

Good for you. I wouldn't be able to do that on the elliptical, too hard on my back and knees, but good for you! And great about the sizes. You're doing so well!
