I have had the My Michelle Bridges, work out DVD’s on in our caravan. I know most of us dream that taking a weight loss pill would be the ideal way to lose any excess weight but I am eager to have a bone density scan done next January and I hope, to be told, that my bones are denser, than the last time I had the scan done. I know that requires, strength training.

It is the workouts I am doing that will be helping me protect and even increase my bone density,  that to me is more important than just the weight loss effect of the exercise.

Travelling is not a reason to sit around, in and outside the caravan inactive and over consuming food and drink.  I love this life too much to join in the inactive senior crowd.  We become old before our time, if we become inactive, eat, and drink too much, we do not become overweight and inactive, because we get older. I cannot see myself as part of the happy hour set.

Who knows I may yet start a trend for seniors to want to start getting fit, lol. J

Reg and I put indigo into the Stawell kennels again today so we could spend all day in the Grampians National Park.  We plan to do the same again tomorrow.

We are thinking about doing the Boronia Peak, climb/walk.  This is a steep medium difficult climb walk to a lookout. Reg and I have done this walk before when we were much younger. It will be another mini milestone as i recall the rather scary for me, steep winding narrow rock scramble to the top.  To do this walk, Follow the track from the car park across Fyans Creek footbridge and begin the steady climb though tall Messmate forest and native pines, along the Western slope of the Mt William range. A scramble up the rocky summit rewards you with superb views towards Lake Fyans in the east and over the Fyans Valley.   I remember that the views were spectacular. Once again i will be packing our nuts for lunch and taking plenty of water with us and heading out early before the day gets hot, to do this strenuous walk.

If you’re interested, take a look at my artslim blog for images of me climbing Hollow Mountain and Mt Zero. With a 1,200 calorie work out like that and sticking to portion controlled healthy eating I am not needing phentermine reviews,

I am right on target to keep on losing my goal weight loss of 3 kilos every four week, which on average I am achieving and intend to maintain until I am at goal weight.

I should mention that I am only focusing on weight loss, because i have a trainer who understands my need to maintain and develop muscle and bone density and she encourages healthy eating, I do not do 'diets', or weight loss at any cost.  That reminds me to head to bed now for a great night sleep and be ready for another big day and to remember to take my calcium before bed. 

Hope your achieving your goals too. :-).  Wishing you all the best xxx.

This time last night, I was struggling with Reg, dyslexia J, lol and dementia combined trying to figure out how to set up our new Nintendo Wii console and Wii Balance board. 

Our first mistake was thinking we could set it up on an old TV set. The writing was, too blurred, for me to read and we ended up, kicking my husband out of his favourite lounge chair, stopping him from watching his favourite Australian Open tennis game and installing the Wii on to our only modern wide screen TV.   It worked perfectly. I set up the Biggest Loser Wii program and did an upper body work out, followed by a yoga, work out.

I can hardly wait until Reg has finished watching the tennis tonight so I can get back on the balance board and do a full body workout, I can see I am going to become a Wii addictJ.

While I wait for my turn to use the TV screen I have been writing in my other blogs and organizing the new fridge magnets I am adding to the range I sell from this web site and from our caravan and I have been doing a little web surfing looking for add ons for my current Wii bundle. I went into Amazon books and found a link to where I can order myWii Dumbbells with Adjustable Weights.

I am currently doing a four-week Wii challenge, as a great way to stay fit and active, working out in the evening after a day of more sedentary, creative work making these fridge magnet arts and writing.  I will make a set of adjustable Wii dumbbells my reward for when I have completed this initial four-week course.

I will be blogging in more detail, regularly about my Wii exercising in my gray-nomad blog. See sidebar link.
