I am in awe of what you accomplished on that rowing team, too. Congratulations on having that achievement--getting onto the team and becoming so incredibly fit.<BR/><BR/>If there's one thing besides faith and the importance of character, that I want to leave as a legacy for my grandchildren, especially the girls, it's the image of a "strong woman"--healthy, her blood coursing through a strong body. That foundation of fitness helps us to live our lives to the fullest.Belindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09251920708783268740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2537277446014810487.post-491920538488152772008-02-11T01:37:00.000-05:002008-02-11T01:37:00.000-05:00On the subject of weight loss versus fitness, when...On the subject of weight loss versus fitness, when in university I tried out for the women's rowing team. I made the team and at the end of that incredibly gruelling novice year (4 hours working out per day, 6 days a week) I had a ramped up metabolism, I was down 2 sizes, and up 20 pounds.Shanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10704810407872873565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2537277446014810487.post-75359735441017465232008-02-10T23:01:00.000-05:002008-02-10T23:01:00.000-05:00Thanks Libby.

That is neat that your mother-in-law noticed, my experience with older persons is that they are quick to comment on weight gain, but rarely have they took notice when I have lost weight.... So her comments about working out, goes to tell you that it is especially noticable. You are looking great, and you have a nice glow on your face these days too..<BR/><BR/>MeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
