Re: WELCOME TO THE SEPTEMBER EXERCISE THREAD

 @Laura14  I too applaud your organization skills and having items bought ahead of time. I don't have a big family to buy for- I could do similar.. I am going to talk to a couple of friends to stop giving gifts to me for my birthday and vice versa. I am sure we'll all agree. 

   I had a nice walk in nature yesterday - on a branch with no leaves was a huge Blue Heron- I watched him for awhile. Impressive!

  @DrKelli  and other football fans- Another failure by the Broncos to secure a win..It wasn't a pretty game to watch. I wanted to see improvement in this team moving forward and so far- 2 games in- have not seen that.  Overall it was an odd football week of games- so many so close. @bopper  sorry about the Lions loss and @JudyL  sorry about the 49ers loss.. Maybe it's gonna be one of those years we can't predict who will rise to the top. 

 

  Plan to clean and bike today.. My exercise for the day.

Tomorrow I have a consulation with my old dentist. Think I mentioned I went to the new one and he made a list a mile long of all  the things I needed to get done with my teeth. And $$$! I want my old  dentist to go over with me  what HE thinks I need and then I will decide- look at cost and prioritize . I think he will be honest with me. Gathering as much info as I can!

 

 Also agree @Laura14  for myself I need to look at my eating habits and clean them up as well. I do well for bfast and lunch- but dinner.. not so much.. With summer crops at farmstands waning- I want to go into fall  / winter making better choices for me!

 

 Have a good Monday!

Re: WELCOME TO THE SEPTEMBER EXERCISE THREAD

@violet runner Good Luck with the dentist. I understand about wanting to know who's telling the truth. I have one at my place who likes to make a buck and I've said no to her over a few things that I know I don't need yet. I trust the guy to be more honest with me especially since I don't have insurance to help me out.

 

I am going hiking today after work. This is the day I can usually sneak out early and get it done.

 

My Eagles are playing tonight so hopefully we get win #2. I thought my college team would have a good season but my LSU Tigers stink even though we managed a great comeback this weekend. I am so excited football is back!

 

And Red October for my Phillies is up next too. I think we have 6 games to clinch another NL East pennant. I would really love to win something else this year like the World Series itself. We've been bridesmaids long enough! 

 

Have a great day all!

Re: WELCOME TO THE SEPTEMBER EXERCISE THREAD

Happy Monday!  This morning I started on the Vibration plate for lower body, 15 minutes, then that prepared me for my spinning workout which was 30 minutes.  Today I cycled through Portugal, I will never get there so might as well do it virtually.   

 

It's up to 90 now here.   And I am not complaining because I don't want winter!  There I said it!!  I won't complain haha ( but tomorrow's a new day)

 

I as you know loathe the dentist.  I'm starting to get nervous over the next extraction in October.  The tooth doesn't hurt at all because it's had a root canal but it is decayed.   Then 5 days later I have the mammogram.  I hope this tooth heals better than my last one!!   And I know next month we have a trip to CO.   Then I have Logan and his heart issues and not knowing what to do when we leave for CO.  My son won't stay here, don't know why, says he doesn't want to.  Logan needs to go out in the night while on the diuretic, but that's another story because I have said I don't like strangers staying in my home.

 

Okay my weirdness is coming out haha

 

Have a good one!

Happy Tuesday,

 

Add me to the football list of losers. Smiley Sad

 

I did a short yoga routine this morning and my 50 tricep dips before work. My intention is to do some sort of class when I get home tonight too.

 

Have a good day!

Re: WELCOME TO THE SEPTEMBER EXERCISE THREAD

Hey All, today was 40 minutes on the rebounder, and a short Pilates routine.   It got to 88 today so no walk outside, and I didn't even use the walking pad today.

 

Lots of upsets in the football!

 

I'm watching baseball right now.  

 

Have a good night

Re: WELCOME TO THE SEPTEMBER EXERCISE THREAD

 Long story short- looks like my old dentist will be retiring in the not so far future- so I am going with the new dentist with restrictions.. Put the brakes on him so to speak..  I haven't made an appt yet.. but will soon.. hope it all works out for me!  @bopper  we can do this!!

  I took an extra long walk yesterday  after working out at the rec center..  And today weather permitting, I want to  try an old hike or a longer bike ride.  Haven't decided yet. I do know there is no cleaning in my plans for the day!! HA!

 

 Enjoy your day everyone.

Re: WELCOME TO THE SEPTEMBER EXERCISE THREAD

Hi all!

 

@violet runner I was super upset when my dentist retired--he's the same age as me!! A young woman took over his practice and basically, all the 'support' staff quit, so that was hard on me too--I have very sensitive teeth and when the previous hygienist quit, I was not very nice to the new one.  I like her well enough now since she is the ony one left from the original staff.  The dentist is okay too, but she can't keep a front desk person for some reason. I can only assume it is her. And that isn't fair because she's always nice to me.

 

My shoulder is still messed up.  I had a dry needling session on Monday and that helped a bit, but it is back to the same pain level now.  I did get an appt with the orthopedic shoulder guy, but it isn't until October 10--that was the first one I could get.  I am also going to start with regular massage again, but the earliest appointment I could get was next Thursday. . . 

 

Have my dance lesson tonight. Have been getting on the aeroski for 10-15 minutes when I work from home.  We've been told that we are going to 3 days in the office after the first of the year and NONE of us are happy about that.

 

I hope you are all doing well!

Re: WELCOME TO THE SEPTEMBER EXERCISE THREAD

Hello everyone, it's another warm day here.   Not humid though so that's a plus.

 

This morning was 30 minutes lower body on the Vibration plate, and a good stretch afterwards.

 

I need to get my Detroit Tigers to the playoffs!  They are playing really good now.

 

I looked at the TSV but the lids don't appear to fit right.

 

Not much else here, have a good day!

Re: WELCOME TO THE SEPTEMBER EXERCISE THREAD

 @DrKelli Thanks for the update on your dentist and office..  Guess I'll be making an appt tomorrow with my new one- and see where it takes me!

  I rode my bike- to another town on a path. Glorious ride today, but a little windy on the way back..  

   Continue to have a good day everyone!

Re: WELCOME TO THE SEPTEMBER EXERCISE THREAD

Hey all, well it looks like our hummingbirds have flown South.   I haven't seen any the last 2 days.

 

This morning I did the Vibration plate, the walking pad, and some body weight workout.

 

I just walked Logan, it's very warm again.  Chances of severe thunderstorms coming I guess.

 

Hope you all have a great day!
