    Christa, you are a gem and so appreciated. I do get motivation from reading here, but like Carole I don't feel I am being all that successful in maintaining my good intentions and actually time on the computer is one thing that limits activities that expend more calories. What I do do religiously is my exercise program, and I am very attentive to eating healthy. What negates my success is obviously not *eating less*. That is what it is going to take to get the more mature woman to lose extra pounds. I also recently discovered that a medication I take for high blood pressure and irregular heart beat has as a side effect *weight gain* and might be part of the problem. But my motto is *no excuses, just try harder*. Sometimes I wonder if I have that in me any more.

    Christa, congrats on 3000 posts!

    Carole - I'm glad to know I'm not alone but this hiccup has turned into a week long case for me.

    I did get back on track exercising today. I went to the gym today for the first time since Friday. It was hard but I did it. I have been walking in the evenings here in the neighborhood but it's been so hot that I haven't been doing my regular 1 1/2-2 miles. I'm trying though.

    Well . . . I'm getting ready to go to the gym . . . I am so tired! I just made a 2 hour trip, in the pouring rain, with a migraine. My head is better but my eyes are so tired and I really don't feel like going. I need to though.

    I think I'll go rest my eyes for awhile first . . .

    Sounds like you had a great day yesterday! Just what I like to hear!

    I DID get to the gym finally but was in a bit of a fog, thanks to a double dose of migraine meds that I had to take yesterday . . . I was glad that I went though because now I can hardly bend at the waist without feeling the tightness in my ABS! LOL . . . Good ab workout . . . and got in some cardio.

    Just wish I would have ate better yesterday . . . I was naughty at lunch, but I won't go into any detail . . . I did eat breakfast though & dinner was chicken & veggies baked in the oven. That was good.

    Now I'm off to the vet (with Josie - for her asthma shot) . . . then off to the grocery store . . . and maybe to the mall. I think I need to get a new pair of pants! Mine are falling off of me!!!

    We went to the gym today. I slept awful last night and I felt it working out. It was so hard. Then I came home and scrubbed down 5 litter boxes and the litter box room - whoa, that made the gym look like nothing, LOL!

    We are having a little rain storm right now (yay! we are so dry) but when it passes I plan to go swimming.
