SWWC Week 12 Laura (LJ)
I've been to Curves the past 2 Saturdays (I only joined 2 weeks ago). I go
around 8:30am before the rest of the family is up. By the time I am back home they are up. I'm a morning person so this works out good for me. I also pass by the Curves place on my way home from work so it was a no-brainer concerning joining the program. I did decide to stop going to the WW meetings so that I would have enough money to pay for Curves. Today when I told my step daughter that I had joined Curves, DH chimed in that some of "them" were coming back. Nice NSV for a man who says very little. What level exercise do you count the Curves session? I've been counting it as Moderate to Heavy and giving myself 4 points. Does this sound correct? My heartrate is usually around 19-20 by the end of round 1. -- Laura "Kristin" wrote in message ... Great loss, Laura, and congrats on making your SWWC goal! Wonderful! I love Curves too and go after work during the week. ONE time I did the Saturday morning deal and I may do it again after my work schedule on Saturday changes. And awesome NSVs on the smaller clothes, that ALWAYS feels great! Keep it up, girl! -- ~Kristin O~ 272/239.2/172 Here's our FAQ: http://www.didian.com/asdww/ and welcome notice: http://www.geocities.com/welcomenotice/index.html "Laura" wrote in message ... Sorry I have not been online much this week. Way too many posts to reply to so congrats to everyone for doing a good job this week. Keep up the good work. And for those that have little gains this week, hang in there. They'll soon come off too. Now the good news. I'm down 1.5lb to 223. Made my SWWC goal by 2. I've made it to Curves 4 days this week too. I even made it there Saturday morning at 8am before the rest of the family woke up. I'm really enjoying stopping there on my way home from work each day. I'm finding that I am much more relaxed at home in the evenings. I guess exercise is a good way to relieve stress. I'm starting to notice that some of my smaller sized cloths are fitting again. I pulled out a pair of pants for work today and discovered they were size Large and they fit. That explains why the new pair of 1X pants were too big. Hopefully they will shrink in the wash this weekend so they won't be so baggy the next time I wear them. Have a good week everyone. -- ~~Laura (LJ)~~ 246/223/221 10% 237/223/225 SWWC started WW 4/21/03 |

SWWC Week 12 Laura (LJ)
Hi Laura... I go around twice and count it as 3 points. My HR is usually
between 21 and 23 (sometimes higher if the count is after 'Big Bertha' aka the squat monster). I'm usually out of breath sometimes so I think that counts as 3 for me. I plugged it into the exercise calculator on WW and it said that 3 pts is about right for 30 minutes, and 40 minutes would be 4 points. -- ~Kristin O~ 272/239.2/172 Here's our FAQ: http://www.didian.com/asdww/ and welcome notice: http://www.geocities.com/welcomenotice/index.html "Laura" wrote in message ...

'Big Bertha', LOL! I love that name. Hate that machine too. How come you
only go around twice? We are doing 3 rounds at our place. "Kristin" wrote in message ... Hi Laura... I go around twice and count it as 3 points.

That makes sense, we're getting another new machine too, as soon as about 40
more people join. I guess they're pretty expensive. Maybe next week I'll go around more than twice just for fun... lol -- ~Kristin O~ 272/237.4/172 Here's our FAQ: http://www.didian.com/asdww/ and welcome notice: http://www.geocities.com/welcomenotice/index.html "Laura" wrote in message ...
