Saturday after Weight Watchers 06-13-09

Good almost Afternoon Sister W.W.F.F., (Weight Watcher Friends Forever),
First off I want to welcome Angie and Annie to our daily e-mail group. Ladies, just jump in wherever you like. Some days we have lots of replies and there are days that no one talks. So just make yourselves at home.
I also want to congratulate our Christiane for reaching her 10% this week. Christiane, you are doing so great and you look wonderful. Keep up the great work.
Our Jennifer D. did her first marathon last week. That totally rocks, and even though she thought she had a horrid week food wise, the scale proved to still love her. Great job Jennifer.
It was so great to have Randy, Becky and our Lisa B. back, you all have been missed. I'm sure there were others on our e-mail list that may not have been with us today, and please forgive me for not giving you a shout out, but know you were missed.
Today's meeting notes:
Fifty ways to leave your lover OR 22 ways to lose...weight.
1. Walk....you can walk just about anywhere.
2.Cycle...indoors or out
3.Run...if you can
4.Play...its summer get out with the kids
5.Get with your best friend (call a friend and take a walk)
6.Step it up (do a little bit more)
7.Fitness DVD's (remember the DVD exchange for next week)
8.Skip...be a kid again
9.Dance....4 fast songs will result in 2 activity points.
10.Clean up.....cleaning you house from top to bottom each week, in one year will result in 50,000 calories burned.
now that is a really good reason to clean house.
11.Dig for Victory....work in your garden...get your hands dirty.
12.Isometric exercise....these are much more effective that people really give them credit.
13. Pilate's...harder than it looks, but great results.
14.From the kitchen....police your kitchen, clean out those pantries that are holding all that stuff that can get you in trouble.
15.#15, I can't make out what I wrote...sorry.
16. Yoga....very effective from what I have heard.
17.Simple stretching. I love this one, it does make you feel really great.
18.Make exercise your entertainment. If you have time to set at the computer, then you have time to get up and move.
19.Use local facilities.....we have so many places right here in the Louisville area.
20. Websites....google, you will be amazed at what you can find. Here are the two websites Toni gave us today....
healthierus.gov
simplefitnessgear.com
21. Work outs from the TV
22. Become an opportunist....park further away from the front door of stores. It's summer if you have access to a pool....use it.
Challenge:
Set a 6 weeks activity goal. Come up with some new ideas and new way to get more activity into your day.
Next Week: Breakfast ideas
Thought for the week:
Hiring a Personal trainer
Good
Going for a walk with a friend.
Free
Saving money while getting healthy
PRICELESS.
Wishing Everyone the best weekend possible.
Hugs to all,
Joan
