How about yoga? You can get a beginner dvd pretty reasonable and all you'd need is a mat. I found one at Marshalls for $7. It's gentle exercise but will strengthen you, add flexibility so your aerobic and cardio won't hurt you so easily and it just makes you feel good. Then you could use the mat for crunches. Very good for toning and with all the stuff you're doing your new muscle mass will utilize more calories, hmmm?
Oh, and since you're working out...muscle weighs more than fat. You may already be succeeding more than you're giving yourself credit for.

Good morning mcfly, thanks for the tips.
I keep hoping that I am building more muscle, and since I'm probably not dehydrated anymore, that is why I do not see a weight loss.

Good Morning all!
Got half a temporary pen built yesterday, will polish off the rest today and reclaim my patio from poopie chickies. I'd love to turn it into an outdoor room, small tho' it is.

You'll get there, you're doing all sorts of excellent things--especially hydration. You're right about the scale too. Pick one any one and most importantly, weigh at the same time each day. I like to get up, weigh, THEN go about my day cause you just naturally fluctuate 5 pounds or so during a day. 16 oz of water weighs a pound, so don't be beating yourself up if weigh after a nice big glass.

Morning McFly. I'm still nursing coffee and reading the paper. Dh is ready to hit the ground running. Me not so much.

I haven't any coffee yet. I've been going up to son's to make it, and haven't made it up there yet.
Its just past 7am here.
See, I know all those things, about the scale, time of day etc, but it is good to hear it from some one else, cuz otherwise it feels like I am making up excuses. Like when I weighed at the dr office the other day, I said I had just drank a bottle of water, but you say it really does make a difference in the weighing.
And I'm pretty sure my thighs are getting stronger.
