Two legs to get you to where you want to go! On weekends me and my daughter will be going up to my father in laws house and will be walking to our camp down by the river. It's only a 2.5 mile walk to it!! Then we'll go swimming for a while then walk the 2.5m back to my inlaws. Shes so excited about it! Thats a sat & sunday exercise plan. We'll be walking the 3 miles around our neighborhood we always do at least 4 days a week.

So like I said, who needs a gym? Haha

That sounds like an awesome plan! Way to go! Enjoy your weekend!!

Nice! 5 miles of walking a day is actually a goal of mine.

We might walk the 3m I have around here twice/day. She wants to start running too. When we get to a better weight we can start that as well.

Exactly! Nobody needs to shell out money when we have these two bad boys to use. Sounds like you got a good plan going and like myself, you seem to give yourself one day off a week which is what I do also. Best of luck and I hope you and your daughter enjoy this bonding time. I would love to get my mum out walking with me but she thinks I walk too fast for her.

I've done this before. I know what it takes to get to where I want to be. The first few weeks are always hardest but once I adjust everything is so easy! I'm hoping my daughter will be up for all the challenges I've planned to get herself to a healthier weight and be happy with how she looks. I told her all she has to do is listen to me and stick to it and she'll lose like crazy! She's in size 18s, same as me, and says she only wants to work on getting back into her size 16s. But she'll be smaller than that. She just thinks it's going to be overwhelmingly HARD. She doesn't realize that little things add up! Like dancing, parking far from the store, cutting back on and or eliminating all sugar drinks. No matter what I'll be there to support and help her because she deserves to be happy with herself and feel as though she looks good. She's beautiful now but I'm sure everyone knows where she's coming from.
