Hey everyone!
My weight is 10 lbs higher than I'd like. I moved in with Tom in March and my exercise has basically been nonexistent (thus the weight gain, mainly and um.. some adult beverages). So today I went and bought a treadmill. I had an elliptical but it hurt my hips. I've always gravitated to the treadmill at the gym and would like to get to the endurance and stamina I was last year at this time.
Last weekend I went to Florida and met Tom there. He had some friends he went fishing with and I met a couple of girlfriends I haven't seen in ages. Went shopping and had a great time. The one girlfriend hadn't seen me in over a year and it made me feel good she said I looked good (from the back) and she calls it like she sees it. But, it doesn't make me want to stop from losing some of this weight.
I will be leaving again on Sunday for a week again but hopefully I'll be home until Tom and I leave again on the 23rd for Florida for 10 days. I'd LOVE to be at LEAST 5 lbs lighter, if not more. I need to get serious about exercise again. I know its a habit you need to get into and now I'd better do it because it is an expensive gym membership sitting in my garage!!
I hope everyone is doing great. Glad to see a lot of new folks on the board and a lot of the vets still here (and coming back).

I loved my Zumba classes, but moving 45 minutes outside of town, I just can't get into town now to do them. Same with the gym.
Congrats on your upcoming surgery! How exciting!! You are right with getting your core strong, don't forget your protein too, that will help you heal!

I'll be taking my workout clothes with me next week too when I travel. I've been such a slug while on the road.

We sure do miss you around here. I especially miss your shopping posts!!
Hope you enjoy your treadmill. I have found Zumba and love it. I also still walk/jog some. I think we have to stay more active the further out we get. You can do this. Mine will go up a few and I try to weigh everyday so I can nip it in the bud quickly. Hope I stay on top of it.
Do you like your new job? We are not far from the Florida line. What part of Florida are you going to?
Good luck and I look forward to see you more.

I have done some shopping, but it goes in spurts. Not nearly as much since I've been on the road, except for my vacation last weekend. My credit card took a BIG hit! LOL....
I like my job. Its challenging. Some days I would like to go back to being retired, but the money definitely is worth it.
We are going to the Keys first, Port Canaveral (for the cruise) and Daytona Beach after. Flying in and out of Jacksonville.

Jacksonville is about 4 hours from us. Maybe one day you will be closer!! Sounds like a great trip. Hope you enjoy it.
