GO ME!! :carrot:

and I feel GREAT!!!

hope everybody has a great :running: day!

Cathy

This morning I did:

1 mile easy walk
4 fast miles

cathyxxx,

I've been wanting to get the "5k With a Twist". How do you like it ? I'm not sure if I could handle it yet though, Just the "Walk This Way" one makes me sweat.

Yesterday was two miles.

Today, WATW (3 miles).

good morning gang :wave:

I did 2 miles this morning. I used The Big Burn 2 Miles of Intervals and I did all the jogging ;)

Hey - where is Kim?

hope everybody has a great :running: day!
hugs,
Cathy

Hey - has anyone ever wondered how many calories you burn doing Leslie's walk? I just noticed on her facebook page this question and this answer from Leslie.

"Does anyone know how many calories you burn with the 3 mile walk or where I can look it up at. Thanks:)"

Leslie said "you walk 100 calories per mile depending on your weight and intensity. If you boost your workout it is 125 per mile. In 3 miles you will burn between 300 and 375 calories. If you have any other fitness questions you can call us at 724 658 1400 and ask for Mona"

interesting stuff ;-)

WSChick - remember you can get the 5k with a twist for $5 - I think it is worth a shot. I had a US friend order me a copy, I can't wait to try it. I wanted to get that one your got too, but I didn't wanna cause my friend any more trouble lol.

This morning I did:
Walk Strong (2 miles)
2 mile brisk walk

At first I wasn't sure about the walk strong since I count steps (goal of 10k a day) but it was a good work out, I enjoyed it!

I have a lot of videos already but I think I need more. I want something that's a good work out but maybe a bit slower for those mornings I am feeling slow and tired - any suggestions?

As part of my exercise regimen, I do a three mile walk each day. I like walking and I find it very relaxing. With the unpredictable weather in Colorado, I was starting to worry that I may have to spend money to walk circles inside a building, or worse a treadmill. :barf: I was reading another post in a different thread and it mentioned "3 mile walk dvd". After some Googling and forum searches, I found this post and was thrilled to see a link with a coupon code. :dancer: So I went ahead and ordered the "5K With a Twist" video and am eagerly awaiting delivery. Thanks, again, for sharing.

P.S.
Today, I walked my usual three miles. This time I did it before dinner. I have been experimenting with various exercise times to see how it affects my blood glucose levels for the day. I feel like a human guinea pig sometimes. Especially when things go awry and I get all light headed. :dizzy:

Good Morning Gang :wave:

I did 3 miles this morning. I used the AHA Start Walking Now dvd and boy what a WALK that is! ;)

Anybody know where Kim is? she's usually in here every day???

Diabetic Z - WELCOME! we're so glad that you found us! You will love the 5K with a Twist when you get it!

WSchick - I'm sorry I'm just now noticing your question. I love the 5K with a Twist. I think you can watch a piece of it at Leslie's website and/or at collagevideo. But it's a great workout. I started out just doing regular walking why they were boosting, but now I do the jogging with them. if it is too much at first you can always keep walking while they boost. She has one of the gang do that so you can follow along. I would definitely get it.

hope everybody has an awesome :running: day!
hugs,
Cathy

Did 4 miles this morning using the express DVDs.

1 mile easy walk
3 mile challenge

I just bought the 5 mile walk kit at Target and for the past three days have been doing a different version of the 3 mile walk. I'm really enjoying it and being able to do it in my living room is beyond nice.

Hi everyone !

Well I didn't walk tonight or last night, I've been sick and just feeling pretty miserable, this cold/sinus infection is kicking my butt !

Cathy:
Thank you for letting me know how you like the 5K With a Twist. I'm totally looking forward to getting it. I also want to get a stretchie band too !

sotypical:
I plan on using the link and the code that you provided to buy that DVD as well, I'm just dead broke until next week. But will definitely be buying it ! Thank you.

Well I hope you all have a nice weekend and I will be back to walking tomorrow :)

hey gang

I cleaned house for 4 hours today and that is my exercise for the day. it all counts ;)

hope everybody has a great weekend!

Cathy: I sent you a PM. I hope you receive it! :)

:cheer: Keep up the great work ladies! :cheer:

I did the 1 mile easy walk twice today in between cleaning, and I took my dog for a 20 min walk. :)

wow courtnie - that is awesome! when I clean that is all I have the energy for! YOU ROCK!!!

Kim - I got it - thanks so much! I just wanted to be sure you were ok and I'm glad that you are ;)

Thanks Cathy, I have a goal of 10k steps a day and that really engources me to keep going.

I did 5 miles today, but keep it slower.

I did the hand weight mile from the advanced dvd, twice before lunch.
After lunch I did 1 mile get up and get started, and 2 mile high calorie burn.

Wow! It looks like a number of you use the Walk Away the Pounds DVD's. I will get mine back out and join you all.

Good Morning Gang :wave:

I did 3 miles this morning! I used the Walk Your Belly Flat dvd!

Welcome WoodleysGirl - it's be great to have you walking with us! I look forward to getting to know you.

So I would really like to try and do less exercise in the morning, and more through-out the day. I need more sleep.

This morning I did 3 fast miles.

I hope to go for a walk at lunch or after work, if the weather sucks I will do a video tonight.

4 mile super challenge

Friday I did the 2 mile, 30 min walk.

Saturday I did the 1 mile, get up and get started, twice.

Sunday I did the 1 mile get up and get started.

This morning I did two miles using the 5 mile advanced dvd.

:)

Yesterday I did the 5 mile advanced dvd.

This morning, I got up - put on my shoes and started a video, then turned it off. I ended up riding my exercise bike instead. I was 30ish pages from finishing the 3rd twilight book, so I wanted to finish that instead. hahaha

I love the bike, but it makes it hard to get in my 10k steps a day, cuz the pedometer doesn't count right for it. But it still counts! lol

Hi! I'm new to 3FC and this is my first post. I hope I post this correctly and in the right spot. I do walk away the pounds 5 times a week 4 miles each time. It's tough trying to keep up that schedule, but I've dropped 13.6 pounds since I started in mid June.

oh we girls I sure have skipped a few days of walking :(

I didn't get up early enough to do a Leslie dvd this morning, so I went and walked 35 minutes at the mall during lunch. I'm calling that 2 miles :)

Welcome Peace4Me - it's great to have you posting here! you are definitely in the right place. CONGRATS on the 13.6 lbs lost!

hope everybody has a great :running: day!
hugs,
cathy

Hello everyone! I thought that I would jump in. :) I have been doing outdoor walking for some time now and my weight loss has hit a serious plateau. Because of this, I started doing Leslie's tapes to get my energy back up. I have a tendency to walk slower than I should when I'm outside. :(

On Saturday, I did Walk and Kick.
On Sunday, I did the Two Mile Walk.
Today, I did the two segments and the warm up and cool down from the 5 Day Slim Down.

good morning gang :wave:

I got up a little late this morning and only had time for 1 mile so that's what I did. I used the 5 mile Fat Burning Walk. I'll do better tomorrow ;)

Paradoxx - it's great to have you jump in! Congrats on all the walking!

hope everybody has a great :running: day!
hugs,
Cathy

Okay, so I took like 9 days off :(

Got a few new WATP DVD's and I did the "4 Fast Miles!" today.
I wasn't able to do every set of 'boosted walking' though, but I feel great :)

I'm trying to find the motivation to get up and walk today. I did a biggest loser workout yesterday and I'm SO sore today:( I might have to do the 2 mile instead of the 4 mile walk...

Just finished a late night workout session: "2 Mile Fast Start"
Pedometer total for 1st and 2nd session = 12,279 :)

good morning gang :wave:

I did 3 miles this morning :cp: I used the 5 mile Fat Burning Mile.

WSChick - congrats on the walking

Peace4me - congrats on doing the biggest loser dvd.

hope everybody has a great :running: day!
hugs,
Cathy
