  1. Healthier Living Support Thread: PART TWO!

    arciedee replied to SmilingBluEyes's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Tweety, thanks for your sympathy. My attitude has been frustrating me a lot lately. I mean, aren't girls supposed to dream of their wedding day from the time they're little? And here's me counting...

    arciedee replied to SmilingBluEyes's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Hi healthier living buds. Things are going pretty well here. Did some cooking last night, made chili, cornbread, and chocolate chip cookies. Okay, so not the healthiest meal in the world, but I...

    Jess, sorry to hear about your tests. I know how bummed you must be. But these are just the first tests. Try to talk to your profs or some students farther along, maybe they can give you some...

    Had a wellness fair at work today... numbers look good. BP 98/70, cholesterol 148, glucose 69 (hadn't eaten anything yet), BMI within acceptable range and body fat in the "fitness" range. Scale was...

    Okay, remembered to bring in the order of service from Sunday. Here are the words of their unison benediction, which I found inspirational for myself... "Go in peace, speak truth, give thanks each...

    Happy new week, healthy living buds! Report from here... scale up half a lb. this morning but will be back at the workout tonight (seemed to not be able to find the time to do one since Wednesday)....

    Sorry to hear about your grandmother. I'm sure she appreciated you coming up to care for her. Sounds like the nursing program was calling out to you! Keeping my fingers crossed that you get that...

    Hi there healthy living buds! Still doing well with the workout thing. Got one in last night. I can actually see some changes in my body and my muscles feel more alive, if that makes any sense....

    Best of luck! I was very happy to hear that they were starting a nursing program there (my hometown). Hope it works out for

    arciedee replied to SmilingBluEyes's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Sounds great, Tweety (minus the soy milk... I'll stick to cow's milk, personally). A good blender is going to go on our registry. Not much new in healthier living today... scale is holding steady...

    arciedee replied to SmilingBluEyes's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Sarah, I think it's only natural to kind of hit a slump after a while. The excitement gradually fades and now it just feels like WORK! But remember that going back to the old habits will only put...

    Michelle, sorry you dropped the CNA class. Though if you really want to work the ER, I guess it makes sense. And great that you could add the yoga class back in! Enforced exercise always helps (I...

    arciedee replied to SmilingBluEyes's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Hi everyone... wow, lots of posts to catch up on since Friday! Hit a bit of a workout slump for a couple days. Was planning to do a DVD on Saturday, but didn't. Then figured I'd do it Sunday, but...

    arciedee replied to SmilingBluEyes's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Hello healthier living buds! Scale has crept up a bit in the past few days :angryfire But on the up side, I did get another workout in yesterday, and I have to say that it felt good... This...

    Hiya Sarah! You're taking micro this semester, too, eh? I just faxed my registration to the school. Went online to see what textbook I need and the link for the online bookstore was gone! Which is...

    arciedee replied to SmilingBluEyes's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Princess74, mixed news, I guess. Great that you got into the CNA program, too bad you had to drop the yoga. Can you sign up for a yoga class outside of school? Or maybe pick up some videos/DVDs to...

    arciedee replied to SmilingBluEyes's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Checking back in... it's been a few days. Holding fairly stable here, but haven't been doing a whole heck of a lot. Did pop in a workout DVD last night and I'm sure feeling it. Reminds me exactly...

    Sarah, Sarah, Sarah... your scale is not broken, hon! And YOU were not "bad." You may have made a few bad choices, but sounds like overall you are doing quite well! I think the key to exercising is...

    Okay, I stepped on the scale this morning at it was down 3.5 lbs from yesterday. WTF?!?!? Not complaining, I suppose, but wicked bizahh (as we say up here). Probably water weight. Been good about...

    arciedee replied to SmilingBluEyes's topic in Health, Stress Management

    I agree, Jess and Suzy, veggies and fruits are sounding much more appealing now. The other day all I wanted for dinner was a big bowl of salad (got it, too!). Princess74, thank you! Mexican food,...

    Tweety, the menu plan sounds interesting. I find those sorts of things helpful at times. Though it is funny to think of you meticulously counting out 8 macadamia nuts! Hi Lori... I actually step on...

    Congrats on a new start, Suzy! :balloons: Have you done Weight Watchers before? I've heard that it works well for a lot of people, so I'm wishing you the best of luck. I rarely have good luck with...

    arciedee replied to SmilingBluEyes's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Thanks for all your well-wishes everyone. No details yet, but I'm sure I'll have plenty of updates as we go along. I was absolutely appalled upon stepping on the scale this morning. I don't know...

    arciedee replied to SmilingBluEyes's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Thanks! We haven't set a date yet, but we're thinking spring/summer (trying to work this around two pregnant friends). Plenty of time, really, but I'd like to get a bit more in shape before I even...
