Good Morning Everyone,
The Snow Angels new van the "Get Down...Turn Around Van" has pulled into to town looking for stray and new Angels.
To hop a ride just have a goal in mind for how much reasonable weight you would like to lose before April 30th and set a goal for exercising. For example I am working on losing 15 lbs and doing 4000 minutes of exercise before April 30th!!
That is my goal and sticking to it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Angels on Board the Get Down... Turn Around Van was Created by Blondee aka Bren .........
So come on over and see what is happening in the Snow Angels camp!!
Spring is going to be here before you know it!! Swim suits not far behind!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love and hugs,
Lizzie

OH LIZZIE what fun!
I'm coming on board with some re-run baggage but also new stuff in my bag! New....determination and desire to be fit and healthy. We ALL get window seats and will take turns driving!
I have what I need to succeed and am gonna USE it! I have a bag of tricks and tools of the trade!
My personal goals are:
1) to reach 200 by April 30 for a loss of 20.5 pounds (w/re-runs)
2) to get 4000 minutes of exercise accumilated.
3) to build back up to my 3 miles a day walking routine
Come on board....lets boogy!:dn

Hey Lizzie,
Save me a seat, I'm still ridin'! I'm concentrating on 5#/month, which would put me at a 15# loss between now and April. And I'm shooting for the 4000 minutes of exercise with you! :)
Hope we fill up this van! :)

New Gal signing in! I want in on this trip!
I haven't been keeping track of my minutes. That's a new one.
4000 minutes, wow! That's a bunch. I'll give it a try.
I wanna be 185 by April 30. That's 15 pounds. I can do that!!!!
I bought an inexpensive pedometer. I wanna keep track of my steps also. So, don't mind me if I "run along 'side" the van awhile!
More power to all!!

Hi Vanessa,
Welcome and glad to have you join us. Always looking for new folks to join in and have fun. We have a thread to keep track of our minutes of exercise. I am working toward those 4000 minutes. Little bit everyday!!
Jump over on the Snow Angels trek to April and say hello. That is where our virtual van is parked. Getting packed and ready to roll.
Welcome our new Snow Angel Vanessa!!!!!!!!!:snow: :lily: :snow:
Love and hugs,

Welcome aboard Vanessa! Nope.....don't mind a bit if ya stoll along side the van awhile! In fact, would ya mind pushing us from time to time! Haha! Hey.....it was cheap! LOL! Actually....we can all push awhile 'till we find cheaper gas!
I have a pedometer too....but really want one that does the steps....mine measures off miles......perhaps I'll put the one I WANT on my "rewards" list for a certain goal attained! I haven't filled any of that yet....just the goals side.
Have fun on this journey and thanks for joining us!

Hooray!!!!
I lost a pound!!!! Didn't yall hear the singing and the hoopla this morning about 5:30 eastern time????????
Finally, after two weeks of busting my carcass (delete appropriate letters) I'm seeing a loss. Now I'm just gonna watch the rest melt away! (I just got back from a two mile walk and I'm still delirious!!!) No joke, I'm thrilled to have lost that pound. One more and I can go back to the hundreds.
Yesterday my pedometer said I hit 4205 steps for 2 miles. I forgot to check a minute ago. I'll let yall know where I stood (or stepped ha ha) today later.
I know all about that high gas. Three fill up's ago it was 1.17 here. Day before yesterday I paid 1.49. The scary thing is we're usually a little cheaper in this part of the world than other places in the states.
Everybody ready for Valentines day??? I'm going to go to a couples dinner at church. Yes, I opted for the chicken and passed on the steak. No big deal. My loss is my eventual gain!!!! I tell you what, I'm so siked about being small again. I WILL put on a size 12 jeans again. Oh to see a size 10. Even if I couldn't leave the house in them, it'd be nice to see a 10 zipped.
I'll pray for you guys, you remember me too.
Tootles!
