Sorry to hear about your knees.Losing weight will likely help alleviate some of that pain.
You're not just working out ONE DAY per week, are you?

I had to give my joints a chance to adjust...I was eating advil and drinking black coffee just to make it through each day. it was sad, I'd be balled up in a world of pain by nightfall. I think I have adjusted enough to start to work out again, I'm looking for gyms near work too

There's a gym everywhere Medford. Find one. Make IT your home away from home.

Medford will never make it. Just like I said on page 1. All I hear is excuses its been a long time since this thread started and no progress whatsoever. She should work on her inner self first.

I hoped she would have made it though.

I hate to say it, but I agree with L2H.

Nothing against Medford, but she has talked the talk since day one and not followed through. Medford, it's ok if you don't want to make this change, but it does bother me to see good people that really want to help you (Lori) get involved and look excited to help you, putting themselves out there to help you (especially when she's trying to get herself ready for her own shows) and you not truly make an attempt to better yourself/your health. You are wasting her time and her energy that should be focused on herself for her show.

We like you Medford, for you, not because you train or don't train.

So if you want to make that change (in your health/in your physique) then just do it and just do it for you.

Ya know I wanted to say things along the line with Laura Lee. Medford, I was the same way, something always came up. But on Saturday I got stamped on my 26 weeks on weight watchers at 100 llb loss. I used to bitch about the way I looked while eating onion rings with ranch dressing or chowing on some mickey d's. Now I'm not saying your like that just pointing out how I was. Noone is busier than anyone else. People say I;m nuts because Im at the gym at 5am, but if I wait till after work I wont go. By the time I get off work, pick up jackie, take her home, feed and bath her its 8pm and I dont want to go then. I hope you get on track. After all, you helped inspire me. I hope I didnt come off mean, but I will admit how proud of myself I am and no matter what, you should be too

Meddie , it's a tough thing to deal with and I know sometimes it seems like it takes too much to accomplish our goals .. if you do anything try to live differently than you have been .. even baby steps will move you forward

Eat better and drink lots of water , the black coffee is not good ... make yourself eat 4/5 small good healthy meals and don't get things that aren't good for you

You can control what goes in your body easier than people who have others to contend with .. if you consider how much effort and energy you spent trying to help Sally all this time , you will see that you need to do the same for yourself

Chin up Sue and carry on with tenacity .. walk , everywhere to begin with and take supplements for your joints not ibuprofen , try some SAM-e it will help you I think

Like Laura said "We like you for you" , but you can be a better you and feel happy with yourself .. I know you can

You ladies are ON FIRE lately.

I totally agree w8m8. We can control what goes in our body. As I am making things for my little ones bday party, I wanted to eat the chicken pasta salad myself, but I just kept veggies next to me and chewed on that. I had to change my lifestyle completly. I get weighed in today and should hit 104 llbs lost. Now I have no idea how much you want or need to loose, but I know if I can do it anyone can. I was the queen of eating junk and being super unhealthy. Now dont get me wrong, I still smoke ciggies, but I can do one thing at a time. Once I reach my goal weight (20 more llbs) then I will work on quitting smoking and yes I will have to go to weight watchers still, probably for a super long time. I realize I cant do it on my own, its helps me to stay accountable. I couldnt be prouder of myself, and I dont think I have ever said that in my life. Meddie, I know you can do it if you want it bad enough.

I'm a little concerned with the numbness in my arms. Now there's these lumps in the wrist that look like veins but they are not blue. wtf
