Healthy Chat: Exercise Basics - June 10, 2003

21:00:30 [Esmerelda] Hello, BetsyAnn-The queen of Curves :-)

21:00:37 [LimeGreenC] Hello girlies

21:00:46 [Esmerelda] Good evening, Cheri. Are you over your slump yet?

21:01:09 [BetsyAnn] Hey everyone! -- It is way to early to excerise at 7 am! lol

21:01:25 [LimeGreenC] which slump? the sleep or "it" LOL

21:01:36 [BetsyAnn] brb

21:01:38 [Esmerelda] LOL-do you prefer to exercise at night?

21:02:08 [Esmerelda] the losing weight slump. I never had a chance to post my reply to your message-crazy wacky lst two days

21:02:23 [LimeGreenC] Esmerelda, I'm still really sleep deprived so you may have to poke me to wake me up

21:03:06 [Esmerelda] If you start to fall asleep I will tell jokes. And none of them will be good ones :-(

21:03:10 [LimeGreenC] I've vowed to be more diligent with my journalig starting tomorrow and exercise like I did when I started

21:03:24 [Esmerelda] but the big question is, did you stay awake for your whole shift?

21:03:40 [LimeGreenC] I didn't weigh in this week, because of my night shift, but I will next week

21:03:45 [Esmerelda] I have totally neglected my journaling :-(

21:04:06 [LimeGreenC] I had no choice but to stay awake, I was busier than you know what!

21:04:25 [Esmerelda] Are you able to get any sleep during the day?

21:04:54 [LimeGreenC] at one point my friend said, "it's disney money , it's disney money" ( I usually chant this while I work) but I then said... $%&@ Disney LOL

21:05:11 [LimeGreenC] I only slept 4 hours, and just got up from a 2 hour nap

21:05:11 [Esmerelda] you really WERE tired!

21:05:23 [Esmerelda] will you have to do it again?

21:06:00 [LimeGreenC] yep on the 23rd and july 7

21:06:13 [LimeGreenC] it's good money, I just have to keep reminding myself of that

21:06:35 [LimeGreenC] do you have questions to ask tonight or should I?

21:06:43 [Esmerelda] lol. but cursing disney? that is sinful!

21:07:10 [LimeGreenC] I know! it's bad if you curse disney LOL

21:07:18 [Esmerelda] you are better asking questions than me. I was hoping to hear what different people did to exercise and also what they do to keep from getting bored

21:07:43 [LimeGreenC] that's what I was hoping to hear,

21:07:48 [LimeGreenC] I'll ask and you greet

21:07:53 [LimeGreenC] that is if anybody comes

21:08:03 [Esmerelda] sounds good to me. I hope some peole join us!

21:08:18 [Esmerelda] maybe they are too tired by nighttime to think about exercise, lol

21:08:29 [LimeGreenC] Did you know I got to meet MargaretJ on Friday?

21:08:34 [LimeGreenC] lol

21:09:00 [LimeGreenC] I heard all about you! ;)

21:09:14 [Esmerelda] uh oh! I hope she had something good to say!

21:09:17 [Esmerelda] where do you live?

21:09:28 [Esmerelda] I was VERY well behaved at the meet, I promise!

21:09:48 [LimeGreenC] She talked about how sweet you are and what a beautiful person you are!

21:09:58 [Esmerelda] lol. she lied then

21:10:06 [LimeGreenC] I live about 30 minutes north of Atlanta

21:10:34 [Esmerelda] oh really? we need to have an atlanta/chattanooga/alabama meet

21:10:34 [LimeGreenC] I'm gonna slap you! LOL, you are a beautiful person both in and out and don't you believe one single thing different!

21:11:06 [LimeGreenC] that would be great. My only problem is I work every weekend

21:11:22 [Esmerelda] believe me, I wasn't even pretty as a baby, and that is pretty bad! But it is ok-I've dealt with it. MargaretJ was so cool-she has a GREAT sense of humor

21:11:35 [LimeGreenC] where in Alabama do you live?

21:12:08 [LimeGreenC] yes she does and I just about peed my pants about the "airbags" roflol

21:12:12 [Esmerelda] just south of Birmingham

21:12:32 [Esmerelda] LOL-I was wondering if she told you that one. I was being SO good by not asking!

21:12:41 [LimeGreenC] so only about a couple of hours from Atlanta

21:13:00 [Esmerelda] maybe we could meet one weekday-late afternoon/early evening

21:13:10 [Esmerelda] do you ever get a weekend off? I feel sorry for you!

21:13:11 [LimeGreenC] we just hee hawed! and then when I saw Ursalinda;s pictures, I hee hawed again. LOL

21:13:43 [LimeGreenC] I only get weekends off when I ask for them and they are hard to come by, but it is so good for childcare that I can't complain

21:13:45 [Esmerelda] Uh oh-did Ursalinda post pictures somewhere????

21:14:08 [LimeGreenC] plus, there is no administration there, I do my job and have a great time

21:14:34 [LimeGreenC] if you pm her, she'll invite you to see her pictures on snapfish. you have to have an account with them or sign up, it's free

21:14:57 [Esmerelda] Yes-it is a good schedule for childcare. If you have someone to help on the weekend! I'm sunk no matter what hours I work

21:15:13 [LimeGreenC] a weekday late afternoon would work great for me, just let me know. I'm working a good bit of overtime, but I'm sure we could work something out

21:15:13 [Esmerelda] uh oh-were there some of me? :-(

21:15:56 [LimeGreenC] a couple, but you weren't "posing" or anything and you look great. blonde hair and all!

21:16:33 [Esmerelda] I am such a baby-despise getting my picture taken

21:16:36 [LimeGreenC] my hubby and parents help out with the kids, it works out great

21:16:41 [Esmerelda] uh oh-here's linda!

21:16:51 [Esmerelda] she will certainly tell you how wierd I am!

21:16:53 [LimeGreenC] Hi urulinda, were you're ears burning? we were talking about you!

21:17:06 [Esmerelda] Hi there!

21:17:14 [ursulinda] oh! i'm in!

21:17:22 [Esmerelda] But Cheri, when do you ever get a break from the kids then?

21:17:42 [LimeGreenC] Yes, you're in! Welcome, we're just chatting, since no one is here for the exercise chat

21:18:16 [LimeGreenC] Esmerelda, I go to work to get away from my kids LOL

21:18:17 [Esmerelda] I've been trying with no success to talk Linda into exercising for MONTHS!!!!!! Good luck, Cheri :-)

21:18:23 [ursulinda] we're not?

21:18:25 [LimeGreenC] can you see us Linda?

21:18:37 [Esmerelda] But she's still my favorite person in the whole world(well, her and Elayna are tied)

21:18:42 [ursulinda] yes

21:19:03 [ursulinda] you look lime green, cherie

21:19:09 [Esmerelda] But when do you get FUN time away from your kids?

21:19:37 [Esmerelda] lol

21:19:44 [LimeGreenC] linda, Betsyann calls it puke lime green, I call it rot lime green lol

21:20:03 [LimeGreenC] my mom gets my kids almost every Friday night so hubby and I can have date night

21:20:10 [Esmerelda] YUCK!

21:20:30 [ursulinda] what do you do on date night?

21:20:33 [Esmerelda] Wow-that is great.

21:20:41 [LimeGreenC] Linda, what is Esmerelda trying to convince you to do in the way of exercise?

21:21:39 [LimeGreenC] date night for us, usually consists of dinner, window shopping, and coming home and watching a movie. We don't stay out too late because i have to be to work at 6:30 am on Saturdays

21:21:40 [ursulinda] I have fibromyalgia - Essie and my husband think i would hurt less if i would move more.

21:22:23 [Esmerelda] It's still nice to go out to eat though-with no kids. I do it occasionally

21:22:41 [LimeGreenC] have you thought about water aerobics Linda? That would probably be great for fibromyalgia

21:22:44 [Esmerelda] but I HATE to window shop. I would rather stay home!

21:23:15 [ursulinda] it might. i certainly enjoy being in the water.

21:23:22 [LimeGreenC] and we are going to WDW in July withOUT the kids :)

21:23:41 [Esmerelda] Good for you, Cheri!!!! It will be a totally new experience

21:23:58 [Esmerelda] Linda and I have gone a couple of times without Elayna. It is SO different

21:24:06 [Esmerelda] WOOHOO!!!!!!! Pixie has arrived!

21:24:08 [LimeGreenC] I've done a couple of water aerobics classes, they are so easy on my knees (I've got terrible knees)

21:24:12 [LimeGreenC] hi pixie

21:24:32 [Esmerelda] If anyone can convince Linda to exercise, Pixie can. She has the "magic" touch

21:24:43 [pixie] Sorry I'm late again, I had to get my sneakers on!!

21:24:47 [LimeGreenC] Esmerelda, we went 2 years ago without the kids. we spent our honeymoon at WDW so this is our anniversary trip

21:25:11 [LimeGreenC] lol pixie,

21:25:18 [Esmerelda] it was lots of fun, wasn't it, Cheri?

21:25:43 [LimeGreenC] it was lots of fun

21:25:56 [Esmerelda] Pixie, want me to send you my Walk away the miles-4 mile tape? I promise, it has never been opened, lol

21:26:44 [ursulinda] Happpy anniversary, Cheri! hope you have a romantic one.

21:26:45 [LimeGreenC] our YMcA has a water class for arthritis folks, and I went to it. Very good workout and not too strenous

21:26:48 [pixie] I got it and I will start it on Thursday! I need to keep pace with you young gals!

21:26:50 [Esmerelda] Cheri, you do those tapes too, don't you?

21:27:07 [LimeGreenC] Thankyou Linda! It'll be 12 years

21:27:09 [Esmerelda] Pixie-you are WAY ahead of us!

21:27:34 [LimeGreenC] I love the walk away the pounds tapes and the 3 mile one, ooh de law!

21:27:39 [pixie] Congrats Cheri good for you! Lucky guy too

21:27:59 [Esmerelda] I havent dared try the three mile one yet.....

21:28:05 [LimeGreenC] aww shucks, you girls are making me blush ;)

21:28:28 [LimeGreenC] not only does the tape last longer, the pace is much quicker

21:28:30 [pixie] Are you kidding Esmerelda you will kick my large butt!

21:28:51 [pixie] I like the three mile better than the 2 mile.

21:28:55 [LimeGreenC] don't you think so pixie? Mine is the walk away the lbs for abs. I know there are several

21:29:24 [Esmerelda] LOL, Pixie. Just last night when I took elayna swimming she said "Mama, why is your bottom so big, is it because you eat too much?"

21:29:27 [pixie] I can't find my abs! LOL

21:29:43 [LimeGreenC] Linda, the 1 mile tape is not too strenous and it may be a good place for you to start

21:29:59 [pixie] You gotta love kids!

21:30:04 [Esmerelda] ROFLMAO, Pixie. I remember when my personal trainer kept telling me to tighten my abs-I kept telling her I AM!!!

21:30:19 [LimeGreenC] LOL me either pixie. I keep saying I'm gonna get my belly button pierced when it comes out from between the two rolls of fat. LOL

21:31:03 [pixie] Linda you should try the 1 mile, it's not bad

21:31:20 [ursulinda] compared to what it was before susan, you are svelte, and miss elayna better watch out because her bottom is almost as big as her mouth!

21:31:24 [LimeGreenC] do you girls think things like mowing the lawn with the push mower qualify as exercise?

21:31:27 [Esmerelda] lol-I just checked my belly button and it has the same hiding place :-(

21:31:32 [pixie] I'm looking, I think I have a belly button!!

21:31:50 [LimeGreenC] LOL you girls are too much

21:31:53 [Esmerelda] Mowing the lawn is GREAT exercise!

21:32:23 [Esmerelda] yeah-it is funny how Elayna has no clue that she is overweight herself!

21:32:24 [pixie] The PE teacher counted yard work as minutes in the exercise club

21:32:34 [ursulinda] i think mowing and weeding and gardening are all exercise - unfortunately no one agrees with me!

21:32:37 [Esmerelda] We can already share some shirts now.

21:32:38 [LimeGreenC] I know this much, my heart was pounding and I was sweating like a pig after pushing that thing for 45 mintues today, and then I felt bad because I didn't exercise

21:32:56 [Esmerelda] Gardening is great exercise. I believe you

21:32:57 [LimeGreenC] then i thought "wait, I did exercise and the grass is cut" lol

21:33:16 [Esmerelda] you should be PROUD, Cheri. Not only did you exercise, but you were productive

21:33:19 [LimeGreenC] I'm agreeing with you Linda! ;)

21:33:26 [ursulinda] isn't pushing the lawnmower the same as walking, with weights?

21:33:33 [pixie] 45 minutes pushing a mower is great exercise.

21:34:10 [Esmerelda] Yes, Cheri-you did double duty exercise. weight lifting and aerobic exercise

21:34:10 [LimeGreenC] I guess I was just thinking because you aren't moving at the same pace as brisk walking that it might not count

21:34:23 [LimeGreenC] but I guess anything that gets your heart rate up counts

21:35:21 [Esmerelda] I used to be very out of shape-my heart would be pounding if I went up a flight of stairsa

21:35:40 [LimeGreenC] Hi

21:35:43 [LimeGreenC] hnalira

21:35:43 [Ahnalira] Evening, all :)

21:35:54 [Esmerelda] Welcome, Ahnalira :-)

21:35:55 [Ahnalira] Health chat!!!!

21:35:55 [LimeGreenC] oops, hit the button too soon

21:35:56 [pixie] Hi Ahnalira, I thought you got caught in the booth!! LOL

21:36:01 [ursulinda] Essie is living proof of the power of diet and exercise

21:36:24 [Ahnalira] I did, Pixie. Still learning how to use this newfangled internet

21:36:44 [ursulinda] Hi Ahna.

21:36:45 [pixie] I was going to rescue you!!

21:36:54 [Esmerelda] Ahnalira, I always love to hear of how you cope so well with your diabetes

21:37:07 [LimeGreenC] yes she is Linda!

21:37:20 [Ahnalira] Thanks, Esmerelda, it sure has been an adventure learning to be grateful; &gt ;)

21:37:44 [pixie] We're looking for our abs, have you seen them?

21:37:45 [LimeGreenC] Ahnalira, do you exercise along with your food management?

21:37:49 [Ahnalira] LOL, Pixie.. Thanks! I need all the help I can get

21:38:07 [Esmerelda] I have some champagne chocolate truffles from Germany right in front of me-sugar free :-)

21:38:21 [LimeGreenC] I think we all should make a packt.

21:38:38 [ursulinda] a packt of chocolate truffles?

21:38:42 [Ahnalira] I do, Cheri. I couldn't for a few years due to heart and liver complications, but I am very happy to say that now I ride my bike 8 - 10 miles several times a week :) :) :)

21:38:43 [LimeGreenC] when we all reach our goal weights, we ALL need to get our belly buttons pierced!

21:38:46 [Esmerelda] oh Pixie, you mean I'm supposed to find my abs too? I thought I was just hunting for the belly button!

21:39:03 [LimeGreenC] that is great Ahnalira!

21:39:17 [Ahnalira] OH YUM! Sugar free is so different than treat free, n'est-ce pas?

21:39:24 [Esmerelda] Well, actually it is now an empty box of champagne truffles :-(

21:39:33 [Ahnalira] Ouch, Cheri!

21:39:53 [pixie] LOL Cheri, that's an owie!!!

21:39:57 [Esmerelda] I don't even have pierced ears...I don't know about the belly button thing!

21:39:59 [ursulinda] Oye. needles

21:40:11 [Ahnalira] I started taking Guggul a few months ago and it has really helped my metabolism and bloodsugars... y'all ever heard of it?

21:40:26 [LimeGreenC] lol Ahnalira, if I get a tummy like Britany Spears, I'm gonna do it. I dont care how old I am (insert stomping foot here )lol

21:40:38 [Ahnalira] Exactily, ursu; &gt ;)

21:40:46 [LimeGreenC] no ahnalira, please share

21:40:58 [Esmerelda] nope, what is Guggul?

21:41:02 [Ahnalira] You go, girlfriend. I'll cheer you on and take your picture, how about?

21:41:03 [ursulinda] Cherie, if you manage to attain that kind of tummy you deserve 6 rings!

21:41:29 [Esmerelda] My tummy will never be like Britany Spears without surgery :-(

21:41:40 [LimeGreenC] sure Pictures of Cheri's tummy for everybody roflol

21:41:48 [Ahnalira] It's an ayurvedic herb that stimulates the thyroid and keeps cholesterol levels down (documented)

21:42:00 [Esmerelda] oh-we have lots of photographers here-I can just imagine how many pictures we could take!

21:42:01 [Francine] Hi!

21:42:02 [LimeGreenC] mine either Esmerelda, that's why I'm not concerned

21:42:06 [LimeGreenC] Hi Francine!

21:42:09 [Ahnalira] Evening, Francine :)

21:42:20 [Esmerelda] where can you purchase it Ahnalira? And how do you know how much to take?

21:42:28 [Esmerelda] Welcome, Francine!

21:42:28 [LimeGreenC] and do you get this at the health food store Ahnalira?

21:42:33 [Ahnalira] My insulin amount has gone down 30% since I started using it

21:42:34 [pixie] Hi Francine, we're in search of our abs and belly buttons. Have you seen them?

21:43:14 [Francine] Sorry, I haven't seen any abs here.

21:43:17 [LimeGreenC] that is great Ahnalira, are there any side effects you've noticed? like palpitations?

21:43:25 [Esmerelda] That is very impressive, Ahnalira. Is it very expensive?

21:43:26 [LimeGreenC] Hi Betsyann, wb

21:43:32 [Francine] I do have a belly button, but I dunno if you want it...

21:43:33 [Ahnalira] I get it online, Esmerelda... here is the link: http://www.nutripro.com/osb/showitem.cfm/Category/55 I take two three times a day

21:43:33 [BetsyAnn] Hi again!

21:43:46 [Francine] Hi BetsyAnn

21:43:50 [LimeGreenC] don't worry Francine, we've not see our either lol :)

21:43:53 [pixie] Hi BetsyAnn!

21:44:00 [Ahnalira] Not very. about $15 a bottle which is about a month's supply

21:44:33 [ursulinda] you know, i'm kinda scared to take any of those herbal suppliments after this last one hit the news.

21:44:58 [Francine] What one is that ursulinda?

21:45:09 [Ahnalira] Cheri, Idon't have ANY side effects.... except that I have to keep lowering my insulin dosage so I don't have insulin reactions

21:45:25 [Francine] Lower insulin is a good side affect.

21:45:39 [Ahnalira] yuh, Francine :)

21:45:47 [LimeGreenC] well, that's good Ahnalira, so are you on a sliding scale based on your sugars?

21:45:48 [Ahnalira] which one was that, ursulinda?

21:45:49 [Francine] Tim and I take MSM every day to help our immune systems.

21:46:11 [Francine] methylsufinalmethane is the full name of it.

21:46:19 [Ahnalira] Yeppers, Cheri... four injections a day. I test my bloodsugar before each meal and take insulin accordingly

21:46:23 [ursulinda] looking for it - just got banned in NYS

21:47:04 [Esmerelda] That's pretty cool-Ahnalira. I just saved it to my favorites so I could check it out more later. I am bad-I don't take any vitamins, herbs or supplements. Probably my missing link

21:47:07 [ursulinda] ephedra

21:47:16 [Francine] You do have to be careful with herbs and such. Always intorduce only one new thing at a time to your system, so you will know what is working and what is not.

21:47:20 [LimeGreenC] I'm just not good about taking any medicine except reflux medicine which I take religiously or pay. but since I've been on this diet and exercising, that is improved also

21:47:46 [Ahnalira] I telly you what - it's true that the less insulin the body uses, the less fat the body stores. All the "stores" on my body seem to be melting away as I reduce insulin levels

21:47:49 [Esmerelda] I was so incredibly scared of needles, I had great motivation to lose weight and exercise. I'm a total wimp

21:47:49 [Francine] MSM would help your reflux immensely, Cheri.

21:47:52 [ursulinda] what diet are you on, Cherie?

21:47:55 [LimeGreenC] Ahnalira, I wish my patients were as good as you when it came to managing their diabetes

21:48:19 [LimeGreenC] I need to look into that Francine

21:48:27 [Ahnalira] Ooh, I don't like that one at all, ursulinda... I tried it once in a weight loss blend about a year ago. Not a happy experience for me

21:48:54 [Francine] I am looking for a link about it, Cheri.

21:48:55 [LimeGreenC] I'm on weight watchers, but as I said today in a post. I've not got my head in the game as much as I did a couple of weeks ago.

21:49:25 [Ahnalira] Thanks, Cheri.. it only took one diabetic coma (hehhhhh) to inspire me to be grateful for that little testing machine

21:49:33 [LimeGreenC] Ephedra, made me feel like I was going to die! My heart almost beat out of my chest

21:49:44 [pixie] You'll get right back into the game, Cheri

21:49:48 [Esmerelda] Cheri, don't be too hard on yourself. I've been on my diet for almost 9 months-and had three periods of about two weeks where I just lost it. But in the long run, it doesn't matter.

21:50:07 [LimeGreenC] I have to get back in the game, it is not an option. I have to do it.

21:50:21 [Esmerelda] Ahnalira, do you ever have scary "moments" now?

21:50:34 [BetsyAnn] or someone is going to pay you a visit, LGCheri! lol

21:50:46 [Ahnalira] Right, Cheri! It's the choice to live and the quality of Life you'll live, n'est-ce pas?

21:50:54 [LimeGreenC] bring it on Betsyann ;)

21:51:20 [LimeGreenC] you are so right Ahnalira

21:51:22 [pixie] Come on Cheri admit it, we're having fun!

21:51:38 [LimeGreenC] and I am so grateful for folks like you all to kick me in the butt!

21:51:44 [Esmerelda] Francine, I'm glad to hear you are actually enjoying exercising!

21:52:14 [ursulinda] Enjoy . . . exercise? I feel faint!

21:52:21 [LimeGreenC] yes we are pixie and I need to remember the "highs" of being succesful to get my head back in the game!

21:52:30 [Francine] I am loving it, sort of. I love how I feel after and while I am doing it. I just wish I didn't feel so lazy when I wake up. It is the get going part that is tough for me.

21:52:34 [Esmerelda] Pixie, you deserve the award for the most upbeat and encouraging Healthinator

21:52:36 [Ahnalira] A couple of years ago I did, Esmerelda.... with my heart, but all is well now. The doctor has a difficult time believing I did it, but he can't argue with the tests, and I just LOVE proving those negative diagnosis wrong.. teehee

21:52:40 [LimeGreenC] lol Linda

21:52:53 [Francine] I have to keep in mind how good it makes me feel.

21:52:54 [LimeGreenC] Francine, if you find that link, will you pm it to me?

21:53:05 [Esmerelda] Same here Francine, I have to force myself to go to the gym, but after I do, I feel better all day

21:53:15 [pixie] If I say it enough I actually believe it!

21:53:38 [Francine] I am looking for it, and don't know why I can't put my hands right on it. I will get it to you hon.

21:53:48 [Ahnalira] Exactily, Francine. After awhile, you'll wake wanting to exercise I promise! Your body will make your mind want to

21:53:56 [Esmerelda] Well, the doctor's had me convinced my life was basically over, but I quit going to them, quit taking all my meds, and starting exercising and losing weight and I've never felt better

21:54:07 [Francine] Rolling ovber and going back to sleep always seems easier, but if I do that I feel guilty after.

21:54:15 [Esmerelda] I still go for quarterly appointments and they are totally amazed

21:54:23 [LimeGreenC] I read one study that said that people in exercise and weight loss management actually did better when they "saw" themselves as healthier beings

21:54:27 [ursulinda] i want to believe it enough so that i could do it, but i don't

21:54:29 [Francine] Checking in here and OLP keeps me honest.

21:54:42 [Esmerelda] Luckily, I hjave to get up-to get Elayna to school, so if I'm up I might as well exercise

21:54:59 [pixie] Join us Linda, you will!

21:55:02 [Ahnalira] Exactily, Esmerelda! We have to give technology it's due (it's certainly saved my Life on more than one occasion) but we also have to remember that doctors are in the "business" of treating illness, n'est-ce pas?

21:55:14 [Esmerelda] and after I drop her off my choices are go to work or go to the gym. The gym is MUCH less stressful

21:55:41 [Ahnalira] I agree with that totally, Cheri. Energy follows focus, and we are what we believe

21:55:48 [Esmerelda] Agree, totally Ahnalira. They just wanted to control my pain(lupus) and really didn't care to get to the root of what was causing the pain

21:55:58 [BetsyAnn] If I can get moving then I believe anyone can -- so come and join usursulinda

21:56:06 [Esmerelda] My favorite t-shirt is "Energy creates Energy"

21:56:37 [Francine] You know I used to have the attitude that I wasn't going to let my asthma win. I fought it. What I found is that the energy I was using to try to beat it was wasted. I did better when I embraced it as a part of who I am.

21:56:39 [Ahnalira] Ooh, I like that t-shirt!

21:56:59 [LimeGreenC] I just love when the girl on the walk away the pounds video says " you are strong, don't ever be afraid of the word strong" that has soooo many meanings for me

21:57:11 [ursulinda] well, i get up at five work at 6:15 work till 3:30, come home and do house/yard work get dinner, work on my business after that until nine and fall into bed. i don't have any energy for more.

21:57:16 [LimeGreenC] Betsyann, you have done great at Curves, I'm so proud of you@

21:57:20 [LimeGreenC] Hi Pam

21:57:23 [Ahnalira] Evening, DisneyPam :)

21:57:29 [pixie] Hi Pam!

21:57:29 [Esmerelda] Yes, Francine. I can see your point. It's just that the meds for treating my lupus caused more pain instead of diminishing the pain

21:57:54 [ursulinda] hi pam!

21:58:24 [Esmerelda] Welcome, Pammy! You just saved Linda from a lecture

21:58:30 [BetsyAnn] And dragged this big ole body out of bed to be at the gym at 7 am - it is possible for anyone to do anything

21:58:39 [DisneyPam] hey kids...still officially chatting, huh?

21:58:57 [Ahnalira] There's that very subtle balance... Of course, I'll keep taking insulin AND I'll continue to believe in the possibility of my pancreas regenerating the insulin producing cells and seeing myself filled with vitality....

21:58:59 [LimeGreenC] I have been so motivated by all you girls!

21:59:12 [pixie] My DD gave me Yoga for Dummies

21:59:12 [LimeGreenC] I think that our time is about up.

21:59:25 [Francine] Hi Pammy!

21:59:26 [LimeGreenC] Thankyou so much for coming and for the health "huddle"

21:59:29 [Esmerelda] We are glad to have you join us, Pammy! I think of you as the energizer bunny-you never seem to get tired

21:59:47 [LimeGreenC] feel free to stay and chat, but me, I'm going back to bed. This night shift kicked my booty LOL

21:59:53 [Ahnalira] This has been very inspiring and uplifting for me! Thanks for having it :)

21:59:54 [Esmerelda] LOL, Pixie. I have that one too

22:00:02 [Francine] It was fun, and I am glad I could make it. I will find that MSM link now and post it.

22:00:07 [ursulinda] good night, Cherie

22:00:12 [pixie] Did you try it? I haven't yet

22:00:14 [LimeGreenC] You are welcome Ahnalira

22:00:20 [DisneyPam] yeah...I still don't know where that comes from Esmerelda...

22:00:20 [LimeGreenC] good night

22:00:27 [Francine] Bye everyone

22:00:42 [Ahnalira] I LOVED singing and dancing through Epcot with Pammy. The girl's got SPIRIT!

22:00:56 [Esmerelda] I haven't tried it yet, Pixie. I was waiting for you to be the leader :-)

22:01:21 [Esmerelda] Pammy has lots of Spirit. Ms. Vitality I should call her

22:01:30 [pixie] Last day of school tomorrow and the i am going to train for whatever

22:01:54 [Ahnalira] Time for me to cruise, too. Sweetie Dreamies, y'all

22:02:08 [Esmerelda] Pixie, I am going on my first long run Sunday-I am very nervous

22:02:19 [pixie] Night ahnalira

22:02:20 [DisneyPam] * DisneyPam thinks everyone has her confused with someone else...

22:02:29 [ursulinda] how far ar you going to run?

22:02:45 [Esmerelda] I found a babysitter for Elayna-I don't know whether that is a good thing or not

22:03:09 [Esmerelda] No confusion here-Pammy. We are all in agreement

22:03:55 [ursulinda] you are pammyK are you not??

22:04:01 [Esmerelda] The run is six miles-I know I won't be able to run the whole thing, not sure if I will be able to run/walk it either. I have quit focusing on distance and have been working on speed

22:04:33 [ursulinda] well, the way you work out you sure aren't going to quit half way through - i know you

22:04:41 [DisneyPam] yes, but I'm so NOT an Energizer bunny type...

22:04:45 [pixie] Wow, Esmerelda that's great. You go girl!!!

22:04:51 [DisneyPam] You'll do great, Susan.

22:05:14 [Esmerelda] We will see if I survive. I may be biting off more than I can handle

22:05:55 [pixie] You CAN do it!

22:05:56 [Esmerelda] Pammy, isn't it interesting how different people's perceptions are? I have always seen you as having unlimited energy

22:06:03 [ursulinda] you'll survive. that's all you need do, this time. As badly off as i am, even I can walk six miles. It would just take me three hours to do it.

22:07:07 [Esmerelda] I hope I will survive. It starts at 7:00 AM and I plan to be at church by 9:30, in a dress and after a shower!

22:07:20 [Esmerelda] Pixie, you are the world's best motivator :-)

22:07:29 [ursulinda] OYE

22:07:51 [pixie] No Esmerelda i really believe in you

22:07:57 [DisneyPam] you'll do it, Susan. :)

22:08:34 [Esmerelda] I'm so lucky-sooner or later, your belief in me will be sure to rub off to me! Thanks everyone for the votes of confidence

22:08:52 [ursulinda] yes, you will do it. nothing like imposing serious boundary conditions though

22:09:34 [BetsyAnn] Sorry I am so unfocused -- Everyone is doing a great job

22:09:46 [Esmerelda] Well, I am going to prove I am NOT an energizer bunny. I am off to bed

22:10:11 [Esmerelda] See everyone later! It was great to chat :-)

22:10:21 [DisneyPam] goodnight sistah-friend

22:10:35 [pixie] Bed for me too. night

22:10:36 [BetsyAnn] Have a great night and see you all later

22:10:40 [Esmerelda] goodnight everyone {{{{HUGS}}}}
