I'm back

[Guest guest]

Thanks ,

I am feeling much better mentally from just posting and getting those

thoughts out! This afternoon I was home w/my son and his friend for a

playdate and I whipped up some of the pancakes ( " golden? " ) from EFL.

They were good w/ a couple of strawberries on the side. The boys

loved them too, but I did hide a couple for tomorrow. Yes we do have

to take care of ourselves.

I too prefer workouts first thing, but w/schedules, hubby travelling,

I can't usually get to the gym at that time, so it's usually 10 for me.

Dianne,

Thanks for the encouragement. I like to document too, although the

only weekly thing I did was a simple grid that had a little space for

each meal (6 meals x 6 days a week). I am definitely at the palm/fist

portion level, but may try Fitday to check myself soon. I loved to

see the spaces fill up as the week progressed w/healthy meals. I

usually kept it on the fridge. I'm doing that again, with the

addition of a few notes in the margin of quick meal ideas (ex. the

extra portion of Chick Parmasan I put in the freezer) so I won't be

tempted to eat something not so good, but convenient.

Maybe I'll start a similar goal oriented spreadsheet.

Candace

Great job Steph on the weight loss!

Do you have bronchitis or something like that?

Take care,

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

Don't feel bad, I had morning emergencies four days in a row, so

didn't get my workouts in. I started yesterday and woke up hungry

today so decided to eat something, so I haven't worked out yet, but I

will. I have to stop by my DD's place to pick up my first Get Ripped

DVD so I can do it tomorrow. You had a great workout.

<<,I sent this a couple of days ago, but don't know if it made it so I'm resending it. Today I did Namaste Exalted Warrior. I can sure feel how out of shape I am. I'll have to keep gently working back into my yoga so I can maybe get back into my old workouts again.>>>.

Welcome back, Kerry.

You are doing so well, managing to fit in workouts wioth yopur treatments. I am sure the yoga will help. Take care!

I am on rest after my surery but itching to get back toTaebo and Turbo Jam - I just ordered Taebo Elite from a local ( Aussie) seller. :--)

Take care, and I hope you have a speedy recovery now that your surgery is over.

Enjoy your Taebo Elite!

Don't worry about it Kassia,

It's hard to keep everything straight. Good to hear your Dad is taking walks, activity does help.

I'll have to see if the rest of my treatment causes hair loss. I hope so, I'd like to get rid of my nose and armpit hair for a while at least. LOL!

All is good here, thanks,

Kerry

Thanks Kerry - how are you feeling?

I did some of the Taebo Elite workouts these last few days - modified as I am still officially on"being careful" after surgery. :-)

Friday I did Mission Two - all toning, with a few things like squat thrusts and jumping jacks to keep your heart rate up. I can't do those right now, of course, but I did enjoy the workout. I used only the weights, not attached to the resistance bands, as I am still taking it easy. 45 minutes.

Saturday I did Mission One - this is an easier workout, I used the full weighted bands and feel this would be a good intro to Taebo tape for those new to Taebo. When I am totally back on my feet, I think I could triple wrap the bands and work on form and up the ante on this one.43 minutes.

I did the standin abs portion of Mission Three ( Rock Solid ASbs), as I haven't got the okay to do floorwork yet. I liked the use of the bands on this one and can't wait to do it in its entirety. I think Mission One and Mission Three together would make a nice fit for a workout - about 73 mintues if both done together.

Each workout has an 8 minute bonus segment - one is an instructional segment, the next is 8 minutes of weight training with dumbells and the last is 8 minutes of abs ( standing and floorwork).

Hi

Hope you had your computer backed up? I think BT have an automatic

back up for their users. Worth asking them if you lost anything in the

crash.

ie - BT is a telecommunications company and ISP in UK.

In Britain, you need a BT line to be able to use the net. You don't

have to be a BT customer, but it must be a BT line.

Thanks, but I am with Madasafish. I still have my old files as I

have a great computer repairer who kept those, but it's just the

WELCOME BACK honey!!! We're so glad you are back!!! I know what you mean about the hair issue, but it will grow back,, about half an inch a month is typical unless your hair grows faster like mine.. It took me nearly 3 years AFTER I finished tx before my sleep patterns returned, its only been really the last 6-8 months that I've not needed a sleeping pill.. I used melatonin for about 3-4 months in place of the Restoril when I stopped using that and it really worked well,, now I can fall asleep anywhere, anytime, its amazing, like it was before I even knew I had HCV... Ask your doc about the melatinin if you are interested in using it,, it worked a miracle for me.. but it takes several weeks before it really starts resetting your internal clock.. once again, IM THRILLED you are back sweetie! love you meSHARON CROSBY <csharonxoxo@...> wrote: Hi all, I'm back after a little break from the group. I'm 3 months out of treatment, not feeling totally better yet, but there is definite improvement. I'll feel sooo much better when I grow a head of hair. lol Our vanities come into play at the most unnecessary times!! Other than that, I don't sleep well, and do hope that improves. My stomach destresses have gone away completely and my skin is soft again. So, there's

hope for a normal return after tx, friends!! Sharon in NW WaAre we havin' fun yet? Jackie
