Re: WELCOME TO THE DECEMBER EXERCISE THREAD

Happy New Year's Eve, it's a brutally cold day and nomless like you said this cold snap has lasted a long long time, we are also only going to be highs of 0 all next week, below zero at night.  The snow has stopped, so cleaning up today.  Hubby is still sleeping, I can't stay in bed that long.  Feeling frustrated actually, all the walking and fitbit stepping and bike and I'm at the weight I was in the middle of November, ( which is up from the beginning of December)  My husband gains 3 pounds over Christmas and already lost it.  I'll have my weight through July 4th, and I"m not kidding you.   Not trying to have a pity party for myself but dang when you just indulge a tiny tiny bit, ( It's Christmas) and you gain weight and can't lose it to save your soul.  Can you imagine if I didn't workout at all.

 

Ok rant done, I have many things to be thankful for and I am and leaving this year has its up and it's downs, and lets just be thankful for health, family, good friends, and remembering who comes first, who you worship, and begin our New Year on positive thoughts, positive energy, and the knowledge and wisdom that come with it!

 

God Bless everyone!

Bopper, I don't mean to minimize your concern about 3 pounds, but it could be just water retention from salty foods. I bet you'll drop it fairly quickly.

 

I'm tempted by the TSV because I would like something for cardio at home with a small footprint. This bike looks pretty good, but I'm concerned about why they're not letting us see the reviews from when it was offered previously. When you click on the other bike, it goes to a page of total gym products, not to the bike page. Why???? What don't they want us to see?

 

Also, the range of motion is pretty small, so I'm not sure it would provide good cardio. I'm thinking I could do just as well by walking in place while I watch TV.  .....

 

It's cold today, but at least it's sunny. I have no plans for tonight. Happy 2018 to all!

Happy New Year's Eve!

 

I've got a stomach bug... @bopper I'll give it to you and that 3 lbs will be gone!

 

Everything goes right through me....I am starving.  I just ate raw veggies and dip......let's see if it sticks.  It'll be cheese and crackers again tonight.  Husband will make a pizza....does not sound good.  Son is working until about 9pm.

 

No working out today.....the sofa is calling my name!
