Yea Christy...I should go swimming. I just can't go to our local pool...My self-image problem..but there is a lake about 20 miles from here I really need to do that..I love to swim...Cindi
Moved furniture and shampooed living room and hallway carpet for one and a half hours today and gazelled for 20 min tonight. Nite all..I'm pooped! Cindi
A gentle 30+ minute walk in the miserable, soupy heat. Extra points for sweating like a pig? Also a fair amount of humping luggage back and forth to the airport, in the airport, back from the airport... (But I get to keep the $$$ voucher for volunteering to fly tomorrow - Tuesday - instead. Which suited me better any way.)
Vigorously cleaning house for my sister who is coming to visit. She hasn't been here in years...Gawd I HATE to dust...But I found time to gazelle for 30 min. So onward and upwards ladies! Cindi
I forgot to mention that I go to see my sister every year but she is 76 and doesn't travel much anymore even though she and her husband still live in their own home and maintain their own yard. I am going to pick her up in Missouri and bring her to Nebraska for a week or so and her husband is going to pick her up here. I can't wait. If you don't hear from me for a few days I will post when I can. Cindi
I spent about an hour yesterday lifting and carrying heavy PC equipment (white boxes, monitors, etc), did a couple loads of laundry, and straighted the house...oh, and did curls with my son (heehee ).
I have been doing some major DEEEEEEEEP cleaning of my house for company today.. (Even throwing stuff in boxes for a garage sale) For the last 8 hours actually so that, my friends, is my exercise for today. Now I am going to fall into my nice soft bed. Sore back and all....OUCH!!!! I lifted toooooo much. Bye for now. Cindi
I did at least 30 min walking. Wanted to rent a bike but was told that there are NO bikes for rent in all of Saint John! I haven't checked out the hotel gym yet, but the pool is out as it is tiny and on the other side of a huge window from a busy corridor full of people working at the same conference as me. I'm hoping for a rowing machine...
Road in my car for 5 hours today and it will be 8 hours tomorrow. When I get where I am going I will get caught up. I usually walk at the track in missouri. Hot and sticky but I'll get there early..Good job on exercising ladies. Bye for now..Cindi
A pretty slothful day - slept in, worked thru the afternoon, and then went to enjoy the 5 to 7pm appetizers thoughtfully provided by the hotel. It was not a pretty sight. Then watched two movies with a colleague, and finally to my room to play with the laptop, read, wash out the undies... So what's missing? You guessed it: I not only didn't exercise at all, I didn't even leave the hotel.
The good news (for me) is that my feet don't hurt too much, so I should be able to at least walk tomorrow. The gym has no rowing machine, but there is an elliptical which I've never tried.
I think for the duration of this trip I'll just try not to get too carried away with feeling bad about not doing what I should. What happens, happens, and once I'm home I can get right back on track
Where is everybody? Are we all running out of oomph? Cindy and Christy, are we three C's the only 30-minuters?
Today I walked a fair amount (actually because I was looking for a source of plain yoghurt near the hotel - no such animal) so I'm sure I got my 30 min in.
This week I've recommitted to this whole weight-loss trip, and I need you with me!
