I have a Richard Simmons aerobic tape called Sweating to the Oldies. I didn’t do very well with it but I guess I’ll try some more.  I tried doing armlifts w/weights but I couldn’t find my 4 lb ones so had to use the 8 lb ones. They were a bit heavy for me. I think I did 2 lifts. I’m going to look for the 4 lb ones tomorrow.

An interesting thing occurred to me today. Since I started eating better I haven’t been drinking as much coke. I’m not consciously trying to drink less - I only drink diet so I wasn’t concerned about it. I’ve been drinking more water & at the most 1 coke a day, a couple of days I think I didn’t have one. This is good - I periodically wonder why I’m paying money to drink colored water, but it seems strange. . .
