a) what happened to your arm?

b) did you make it home for the emmy's?

That's it

Nebb

1) Im not sure, its just been killing me ALL DAY, its the entire arm too from my shoulder down into my wrist. I think its the weather, unfortunately.

2) emmy's are next weekend, but my aunt emailed me back and OK'd coming earlier so I can leave earlier. So I am HOPING I will be ok.

That's weird about your arm...I get pain in my right upper arm sometimes but never for a whole day.

And I am a loser for not knowing what day the Emmy's are...fail train...but I am happy it is going to work out for you though!

Nebb

Im a nut, I always watch them. I love this time of year because there is the emmy's, golden globes and oscars coming up. ive had it on my calendar for weeks now!

Im not really sure why it happens to my arm but it seems more frequent (once every 2 months or so?) than it used to. bodies have a tendancy of sucking.

yeah well, I just ate more of the cake from my shower...I have decided that if I really want to lose weight I have to closet myself up in our condo and never leave because socializing is brutal on the waist line...so my body sucks now too...

Are you going to the gym at all? I thought maybe if we wanted to I could get us goodlife passes for our GTG in October...that way we can earn our pints (or 6oz glass or red wine in my case!)...

Nebb

No I havnt gone to the gym in a few weeks, im still pissed off with them for the financial issues ive had with them. I am trying to sell my training sessions to a friend of mine and she wont get back to me whether she can or not and im starting to get annoyed. I am almost to the point where im not as mad at my gym anymore and will possibly go back. I REALYL need to get back on track with my weightloss, so im not sure if quitting is a good idea anymore.

number55

oh...I was worried your knees still hurt...I can get us all passes then

Nebb

my knees seem to be hit or miss, i dontthink there is any rhyme or reason to it now. I will probbaly be way too out of shape to work out with you guys and embarass myself.

number55

oh please, you will put us all to shame...after no weights in St. Lucia for 28 days I had to drop my weights considerably. Last Tuesday I did my first leg workout and I LITERALLY couldn't walk for 4 days. I have never hurt that badly!

Nebb

I havnt done weights in nearly 3 weeks Im almost considering scaling back on weights either way and just upping my cardio. I havnt lost weight in 8 months and while I know weights are important I think im focusing TOO much on them. Isnt losing weight freaking frustrating?

number55

Oh yes, very very very frustrating...although for me it is mainly diet that sabotages me...

I think you should do some of the mixed cardio/weights workouts my trainer gave me...the weights aren't barbie weights but not crazy heavy either, with short bursts of cardio in between sets...you will get the benefits of both in one workout.

I do more weights than cardio because I am lazy and I hate cardio. I know that until I start doing cardio 4 times a week for 30 - 45 minutes, along with weights and watching what I eat, I won't see a massive change. Problem is that Graham gets his cardio at rugby so he never wants to do it at the gym and since I hate it I just do the weights!

I was organizing my closet when I got home from St. Lucia and I wanted to cry when I was folding my 'jeans from days of yore' pile...three pairs of size 6 jeans, two pairs of size 8 jeans, 4 pairs of size 10 jeans. And then there are the pairs I wear right now, two size 10s (that are stretched and no longer really 10s) and a size 12...I wish I could fit into my favourite pair of size 6s again (they were more like 8s really)...I love them so much. I hate feeling fat so much. Esp cause Graham isn't and it makes me feel so ugly! Oh, but how I love food...

Nebb

I love food too much too. Patio's have been my demise this summer
