redwinelover's Journal, 18 October 2010

This is ridiculous. Okay, I'm sick. Guess there's no denying it. Still no workouts, although weight was down today - 127.6. ONE good thing... heavy sigh. I hate sounding so un-grateful! I am, I just really have a lot riding on being healthy. Like right now, today...

Side note - today is my one year anniversary of quitting smoking for the very last time! That time I smoked for about a year. I'd gone 4 years without, I think, and many years ago, I quit for 5 years. But this is the one that's going to stick. I'm so much more focused on health these days (yeah... ironic, isn't it? typing here from my sick bed!) Down almost 47 1/2 lbs from then, too...

So weird I wanted to comment on your journal today to tell you congrats 1 year yay! I did remember, before you said anything, you probably need the rest, but I know working out helps you deal with life, it’s like not having your best friend to talk to you after a hard day. Well I hope you get better, I need to hear your critique of your new video, and that can't happen until you get better so there is my selfish reason for wanting this cold, bug whatever to go away. Well hope you enjoy your one year, you are an inspiration.

Wow, hottagain, how cool of you to remember! I am resting, got the okay for Claritin... hope it helps. Oh, which new video? The Bob Harper one? I also bought Jillian's new one but haven't opened it, the one I need to get a kettlebell for... Hope you're fine, and thanks... an inspiration :D How sweet!

The Carb burner video, 10 minute solutions. I wanted to see what you thought, shred it is the jillian video with the kettlebell it got good reviews. You should blog about fitness videos they get such a bad reputation for either doing nothing or being too intense and never have any estimations on calories burned... I think you would be so good at something like that.

Hottagain... we'll call it Alzheimer's! I forgot I DID order it! lol... it just hasn't arrived yet. I'm so glad you reminded me- wow, that actually DID totally slip my mind! Blog about fitness videos... hey, you might be on to something there... could be fun. And as a benefit, I'd stay fit! Thanks for that...

Multiplicity - thanks! And thanks for the congrats and anniversary wishes, was well. I'm sure I'll feel better soon. I'm SO glad to hear your foot is finally doing better! Make sure you take it slow with the walks at first - listen to your body. If it hurts, then stop. You definitely don't want to go back to square one! Glad you're healing.

RWL, I am ordering that nasty bug to pack it's bags and get the heck outta Dodge!!! There, you will be better tomorrow....I just started a kettlebell workout. I like it, but man was I sore. I also have a 10 minute solutions video for Pilates, like it also. So now I am doing Slim in 6 Burn It Up, the kettle bell workout, the pilates solutions, and walking. Hubby told my sis last night I was addicted to exercise. lol I told him it wasn't the exercise I was addicted to, it was being able to take care of my old self, without having to rely on outside help! Get some rest tonight,and I sure hope that you feel better tomorrow. I am praying for you!! Oh, and one other little thing....you ARE AN INSPIRATION!!!

Happy one year non-smoking as that is a terrific accomplishment. I quit over 15 years ago and am happy I did. Yes, it is ironic about your cold as getting sick sucks! I do the same thing live in denial and sometimes the sickness blows over quickly but there are those times when our bodies need rest to get better. Hope you are feeling wonderful soon. TOWANDA!!!

Congratulations on your One Year Anniversary! And so sorry you're still suffering with the flu'. Fingers crossed this will stimulate your immune system to deal with all the other ailments winter will no doubt throw your way. _____________ Been catching up on your earlier posts and wow: that is one amazing pic'. You're gorgeous, and so young looking. As I scrolling down to the text, I assumed it was going to say "This is what I used to look like 20 years ago"! Forget 50 is the new 40: for you, it's 30!
