  1. RAFL wk 7: down 1.2 to 210 (total 35.6 since April 2003)

    I guess I am doing something right for a change. Maybe I am one of those that need the extra support
    that the meetings give me. I also stopped eating my Activity points since I went back to the
    meetings. Maybe that's what has help. Down 3.4 since I rejoined on 1/31/04 so I am back to 1+ lb a
    week like I was before.

    Topic discussed at the meeting this morning: the importance of a healthy breakfast and the need to
    vary your meals. Having the same breakfast or lunch each day can send a signal to your brain that
    you are on a diet which could trigger a plateau. So add some variety each day.

    THTP wk 4: 3 Curves plus 1 attempt at a "walking tape"

    Well my attempt at using the Prevention "Walk Til Slim" (or something like that) totally failed. It
    looks like a great tape but my arms and legs don't work together <g>. I won't do that tape again but
    will try and get over to Wal-Mart this week to get the LeslieS tapes. I need something very simple
    or I can't follow along and get very frustrated doing the tape. Walking or marching in place is more
    my liking. I truly have little or no hand-eye coordination.

  2. This is excellent news Laura. Something(s) sure clicked right for you this week.

    I'm the same way when it comes to aerobics. There can't be much health benefit to standing in front
    of the TV completely exasperated, not even knowing where/how to jump in. I did buy "Fat Burning for
    Dummies" aerobics video, which is supposed to be for beginners with basic moves. Harumph! It took me
    two weeks to learn the first two combinations. Now I alternate between that and my Leslie S walking
    videos. Do you have a favorite of hers? Currently I'm using the 2-mile Walk. I've wondered about the
    Prevention video you mentioned; thanks for the review.

  5. Thanks PR. When I was describing my experiance with the Prevention tape to a friend of mine she told
    me that she has the same problem with her feet and said that she like Leslie's tape because they
    only use a limited number of moves. She started with the 1-mile and is working her way up to the 3
    mile one. She said our local Walmart carries them so I will plan on making a trip there soon. The
    Prevention tape looks good for someone adept at these kinds of videos. Its just not for me.

  13. I know that acknowledgement is important to you but don't let it get in the way of just continuing
    on with the program anyway. You know what you have accomplished and that's the important thing

    This is excellent news Laura. Something(s) sure clicked right for you this week.

    I'm the same way when it comes to aerobics. There can't be much health benefit to standing in
    front of the TV completely exasperated, not even knowing where/how to jump in. I did buy "Fat
    Burning for Dummies" aerobics video, which is supposed to be for beginners with basic moves.
    Harumph! It took me two weeks to learn the first two combinations. Now I alternate between that
    and my Leslie S walking videos. Do you have a favorite of hers? Currently I'm using the 2-mile
    Walk. I've wondered about the Prevention video you mentioned; thanks for the review.
