**sigh**We are moving SLOW today. I wish everyone would get going here. I have a 10€ coupon on any textiles at a store.....

I did L1 today with as much gusto as I could muster...wasn't much but I did what I could!

Hi O-buddies!

I did my O last night, because I wanted to start the year off right, even though I've given myself permission to take Sundays off. We went to a party, where the strongest thing served was Coke...and there were lots of goodies. I just enjoyed everything I wanted to try, and didn't feel bad doing it. Today I'm back on track though.

Shelby, it's good to see your smiling face here this morning!

Maree, I hope you're soon feeling MUCH better!!! The stars on the calendar really do help. I know that for part of 2005, I just wasn't feeling well, so that accounts for some of the missed O workouts. I want to do better though!

Melissa, welcome back! Just pop in here daily, for all the support you need! Oxycise is life-changing! Good luck!

It's foggy here today, and frosty. It's kind of pretty, but really slick, too.

Have a great day!!!

Susanna

Good morning Shelby and Susanna! I had to do my O! in installments this morning, but I managed to get it all in. My water intake was horrible yesterday, but I'm back on track so far today.

Hi Melissa! It was good to see your post from yesterday...and yes, this is the right place to be for support and encouragement!!

It's warm and windy here today! boo hiss.

Hope to see lots more folks posting as the week progresses. I guess today is still sort of a holiday since many places are still closed.

Good morning everyone.

I just finished L2 for this morning. Susanna I get to put a star on my calendar. Since you had talked about it. I decided I would get a calendar just for O. I'm glad to know that it really helped you last year.

Shelby glad to see you back. I hope you get to use your sale coupon today.

Melissa welcome back aboard. I'm one of the newbies sorta. Started doing Oxycise in October of 2005. This is a really great place to get encouragement and sometimes a kick when I've needed it. Looking forward to getting to know you.

Kelly thanks for being our "Poster Girl". You are truly an inspiration.

Vicki glad to know you are still with us, I know Joey is out there, too. Vicki I'm glad to know that you had a great holiday season and were able to maintain. Way to go

My husband still has today off, so we are going to do things together which will be fun. Even if it's just having time to talk.

Sharon

Afternoon!

Just got back home. We went out to breakfast this morning. Was nice!

Right now it is raining really hard and very windy. Cool! We actually have the fireplace going! Love it. What a nice change!

This is a lazy day but I will get my O'ing in sometime. Everyone is watching the football game and veggin out.

Ok, just wanted to say hi. Talk to you soon!

Until next time...
Susie

This is my last lazy day before back to the hard working grind tomorrow morning. My boyfriend just left to go back to Ohio so now I guess I will just finish relaxing and maybe do some O to prepare myself for the start of a good 2006!

So Kelly, tell us what did your friend have to say about all your weight you lost. Did she even recognize you? We are all anxiously awaiting to hear her comments!

Happy New Year everyone! I am sure this site will start to be hustling and bustling in the next few days with everyone wanting to get back on track with their weight goals etc. This is one year at the beginning of the year I actually feel pretty good about myself instead of starting out the year being totally disgusted with myself!

See you all tomorrow.

Lin

Happy New Year!

Well, I am back once again. Did L1 this morning. Felt good! Also I've done 90 some extra breathes. I measured yesterday & weighed this morning.

Congratulations to those of you who lost during the Holidays.

Melissa-Welcome back!

Mary sorry you are sick. Hope you are feeling better.

Ellen

Hi everyone,

Just a quick note to let you know I did my O this morning.

DH & I have been on the go all day. Now, I need to get some laundry started and think about what to make for dinner.

See ya all back here tomorrow!

KOB!

Hello everyone:
I am doing better today, but not up to myself yet. I wasn't sure when I got up if i would be able to hardly stay up, but as the day went on I feel pretty good now.

Shelby It's good to see you post. Did you get shopping as you wanted?

Susanna, I want to keep up with you with O's and I have already fallen behind. I couldn't O yesterday and I dont think I'm up to it today.
I did get my decorations down and somewhat put away at least they are as far as the basement. I'm waiting for my son to come over and carry the tree down and put it away. It's so heavy I can't handle it.

Kelly - Your so good as usual. I've just got to learn from you and perhaps I can be at goal this time next year too. Dream Dream
Sharon I'm glad you can enjoy your time off together with your husband.

Susie - Nice to relax a day by the warm fireplace. We are not having bad temperatures here either.
Ruth - I would like to know how you are doing with the Holiday. Haven't heard from you for a while.

Hope you all have a good start of a new year.
Mary

Happy New Year everyone.

We returned from our camping trip early afternoon and my DH and I both weighed ourselves and we both gained a few pounds.
Alicia we went to Willow Lakes RV park in Titusville.
I'm glad Jennifer gave you the lds website. A lady in my office uses that site a lot and I'll ask her what other sites she uses.

Vicki Lynn welcome back. I thought about you often. I sent you a message but didn't hear back from you.

Susanna, I looked at the calendar with stars on it and I did my best in jan. feb. and oct. I hope I can have equally good months throughout the year. Tonight I will earn my first star of the year.

I'm off to do L3.

Thanks for making me feel so welcome! I am getting ready for the big start. For me, I have to be ready mentally too. My family all knows Wednesday starts a new way of eating, and for me back to the O! I am in hopes that one of my three children might join me. BTW, I Live in Oklahoma.

Happy NEW YEAR

Hi Melissa,

I just saw you were from OK. My son and DIL live near Catoosa. We visited OK in Sept. I hope you are not near where all of the fires have been breaking out. Stay safe and enjoy the beautiful sunsets that OK has.

Sharon

Hi, me again~

I just wanted to let you know I did do my "O" around 4op this afternoon. I also lifted some light weights after.

Don't want to do this because it's embarrasing but here are my measurments

weight- 169
rib cage- 38
waist- 38.5
lower tummy- 42
thighs- 22
As you can see I am a total "apple". Wonder if I will ever have a waist in the 20's

Ok, I'm embarrased so I'll close for now!
Until next time...
Susie
