Eek, I'm afraid I'm falling behind on my exercise minutes. When I get a chance I need to do some projections so that I don't have ALL my minutes due at the end of the month.

I worked out 42 minutes on my bike today. I could have done more, but woke up late again and needed to go to work!. Yesterday I was lazy and didn't do a thing. I am hoping this week will be a productive one! :-)

GROUP TOTAL 9541 + 42 = 9583

Got a couple of new dvds, and I did 20 minutes of the first one today...and boy am I feeling it!

9583+20=9603

I am trying to up my time on the elliptical every day, and today I made it to 12 minutes. Then I did 35 minutes on the treadmill, which brings my total to 888. OK - so I didn't hit my March goal today, but there is no way I won't make it tomorrow!

The new group total is 9603 + 47 = 9650

And I swear I didn't plan that - it just came out even on its own!

Nancy -- Way to go!!! Very exciting! I don't know if I'll make my goal, but I think I will go above the minutes for last month!

MariaLucia -- Yes, fitting it all in gets tricky! We just keep trying!

I got in 30 minutes today...

Group Total ~ 9650 + 30 = 9680 minutes!

After Curves this a.m. spent hours at the barn on my feet and even walked up the driveway (hill) beside a rider. I didn't even feel like sitting down like I would have a year ago, so I have to keep coming back to that little NSV. Anyway, I even did an extra 10 minutes on the treadmill tonight for a bonus heart rate elevator. Hey, every little bit helps! Besides, I don't know how to count the time at the barn.

10 + 9680 = 9690

Has anyone here bought a microwave apple baker from Richard Simmons?? I got one off ebay without instructions and Richard (or someone posing as him) emailed me that he could not find the instructions that it was a very old product. I was hoping someone here might have one from way back when and be able to tell me how to use it. The person I bought it from said it was an old QVC special item and they did not have the instructions either.

Thought it might be worth it to ask.


9690 + 65 = 9755

Didn't do well at all today. I was feeling really 'blah', which it seems everyone at school is feeling. Not sure why. It could be the heat, but there is also a 'tension' at that place that you could cut with a knife lately.

Anyway, I only did my 25 mins on the treadmill this morning. I was feeling so down this evening and have been tired during the day and didn't want to make myself ill again. So I decided to just take it easy. I haven't done that before without someone else telling me to, so it was kinda a milestone for me. I still feel REALLY guilty for not doing my second workout, but I'm hoping I'll feel better for it tomorrow.

Personal Goal... 360 - 25 = 335 mins to go of March's 1700 min goal.

Group Total... 9755 + 25 = 9780

Hope everyone else is having a better day.

Take care,

Zelma

Well, I did my regular bike routine - 50 minutes today. I calculated my minutes and I'm going to get to my goal, I have to work out 50 minutes each day of the week this week and next week, with the weekend off. I just looked at my workout log - I've worked out 13 out of 21 days this month. Not bad for someone who went to the gym once or twice a week before.

Group total: 9955 + 50 = 10,005

Cheers! :-)

45 minutes from me today. I can't believe it. We're over 10,000 minutes. Go head ladies.

10,005+45=10,050

Yes indeed we are over 10K in minute with 10 days to go! What's our record, something like 12K? (I should keep track!) Let's blow the roof off it!

Zelma -- I hope you feel better, I know it's unusual for you not to do both of your routines, but hopefully listening to your body will pay off!

I did some elliptical and treadmill (up to 12 min!) and weights for a total of 43 minutes.

Group total = 10,050 + 43 = 10,093 minutes!

I got two new dvd's the other day...one is called "10 minute solution: Kickbox bootcamp". It has 5 different 10 minute workouts: Basic training, ultimate buns & thighs, arm & shoulder sculptor, washboard abs, and fat burning blast. I did the buns & thighs today, and washboard abs (only for 5 minutes, though, as I was on a hard wood floor, and don't have a mat!).
I also got another crunch workout dvd called "Fat burning dance party", and I only did the warmup, which was 5 minutes. I'm just feeling so BLAH.
So 20 minutes for me today.

10,093+20=10,113

Zelma - Don't feel guilty! The important thing is to listen to your body.

I did 35 minutes on the treadmill tonight. Once again I had planned to come home and do some strength training tonight but I didn't feel up to it. This plan definitely won't work - I need to find another way to get it in during the week. My total is now 923, which means I have hit my March goal!

The new total is 10,113 + 35 = 10,148
