Happy Thursday!!!
Well, I did my Leslie Sansone walk strong dvd, will do my Billy Blanks cardio tomorrow. My new exercise plan is : MWF-taebo cardio, and T,TH, Sa do more strenth training. Plus trying to keep my calories between 1300-1400, now. So, wish me luck! Want these last 15 pounds gone! So, gonna try this, shout out to Cindy for all her good advice!
Well, buddies, please pray for me to have more patience with my mom, her memory is so bad and she is getting very argumentative. I love her, but she is really trying my patience. She expects me to do alot of things for her, that she can do herself! Sorry for venting a little, but it is so hard, and I can’t be there for her 24/7. So, working thru that.
Ted and I are doing great, we admit we drive each other a little nuts but we laugh about it, he and I both say we want to be with each other and love each other alot. I think the last trip he took did us some good! That and the talks we have been having!
Well, I had better go, kinda rambling this morning, you all have a great day, and whip that fat into shape! Love ya! :mrgreen:

Great plan Kama! It is a tough position you are in with your Mom. I work with the elderly and for me I just tell myself to breathe and see the humor if that is possible. I like a little sarcasm that I usually do not vocalize…hehe It is tough. Tough for you and tough for them as they change. Good for you for insisting that she do as much as she can. It is motivating and good for their self esteem to see that they can still do many things.
Things are going well. Thanks for sharing your strength and plan
Good luck in dealing with mom Kama.
You have had a lot to deal with regarding your parents in the last while.
Its no wonder you are finding it trying.
You’ve done well though Kama, very very well.
As far as Ted goes - men were put on this planet to drive us nuts. Surely you know that.
lmao
but dang it what would we do without them?

Excellent plan Kama! This may be just the thing to get that last 15 pound OUTTA THERE!
I can understand the situation with your mom. I tend to want to lose patience sometimes with my dad, but try and stop and remember that she was there for you for a LOT of years, so now it’s your turn to repay the favor, and with gratitude in your heart. You see it that way, it won’t seem so bad after all.
Love and mucho huggggggggggs,

Its funny a friend just e-mailed me today about how annoyed she could get with her husband. She said “you can’t live without them, and you can’t shoot them” LOL!! I’ve never heard it put that way, but it made me smile
My heart goes out to you with your mom. My mother had Alzheimers and we cared for her for the last 8 years, it was tough. Just take one day at a time..step back and remember you are surrounded by buddies and love. I know how hard it is, our lives with our parents are somewhat alike and its so emotional some days. I wonder if I can make it through the day sometimes…but keep the faith!!! Were here for you!!
It is so hard caring for a loved one especially when they are having memory problems. She may be argumentative because she’s frustrated with her problems. You are there and it’s easy to take it out on you. Don’t take it personal. My grandmother who I took care of would have fits where she would argue with everything and she hallucinated and my aunt and I who cared for her could never get her to see reason. However, my uncles could calm her down in a heartbeat. IT’s hard. If you ever feel like venting or need to talk, feel free to vent to me. I will help in anyway that i can. Keep your head up!
Awesome I saw that new Billy Blanks set in a store at Franklin Mills Mall it;s a store that sells all the things you find on tv. I;m going to go buy it! I love my tae-bo!
