Bet you're right, Luise.  She'll be ready to rock 'n roll when she gets back, too.  : )

Believe I can guess which one I got.  I'll hand that one down to dd's...  Jane Fonda & I just had a good time though.  : )

Good for you!!  ;D ;D ;D My live Zumba class at Curves is called Zumba Gold and is for seniors but it really stretches me. Conversely, I have seen some Senior Zumba videos I could do and sleep through.

You're doing really, really well, Luise.  Once I've warmed up, it feels good to stretch, but with fibromyalgia, my muscles & tendons are tight.  It's about like limbering up jerky.  Sure feels good afterward though~  : )

Hi,

I do Yoga, Chi Gong and quite a lot of walking.
We dont have a car which enables us to enjoy walking our dog twice daily plus walk to the open market mornings for
fresh vegi and fruit and errands. There is also a fresh fish market everyday.

I lost 60 pounds between 2005 and 2009.
I had added some when I quit smoking and then more
with menopause, so it felt good to release those pounds!
Maintaining is not as easy as I thot it would be, but so far so good !

congratulations on all your weight losses and fitness efforts.

Awww...I missed you guys too!  We had the time of our lives and NO, I didn't behave one bit! Lol.  I weighed in this morning, and I gained 4 lbs! Seriously, I expected it after everything I ate and drank.  I actually figured it would be more.  I ate desserts, ice cream, bread, fried foods, you name it....I ate it!  We did walk bunches and bunches, but I can tell I didn't do my Zumba!

I don't think I ever consumed over 3 glasses a water a day and I would be willing to bet I ate enough sodium for 5 people!  I was awful!  But I had so much fun!  I loved Mexico and the Salsa tour was the bomb!  We really had a great time.

So time to get back on it!
