Oh my achin' bod. DH and I walked to the gym today. It's friggin' freezing out. Then we worked out. I did 25 minutes on the bike, 25 on the treadmill, and 10 on the eliptical. Burned 500 calories. Then we walked home, picking up groceries on the way. I am SO sore!!

Keep it up all you exercising girls!! You're doing great!!

Wow Ellis! You did absolutely awesome today! Keep up the good work! Bravo!

[ellis]

Thank you Kelly, you slim/trim babe, you!

[Sojourner]

You are all such an inspiration! Despite my dripping nose and hacking cough I went for a brisk 20 minute walk outside. Its like 44 degrees today... almost felt like spring. Unfortunately the little bit of snow we had is melting. I'm just happy I was able to exercise a little bit; I do feel much better.

Way to go chickies

Well I did my usual walk to work and walk back home but I did sneak in a little extra exercise by walking down the stairs twice today - that's 14 flights down x 2 I did feel a burn in my upper thighs and calves - now if only I could get myself to walk up the 14 flights

Go Girls!!!

Smaller workout today...

20 minutes on the bike

Ellis are you still doing weights too? Your cardio is awesome.
I usually only do about 20 min cardio becasue they say after that it really does not work a whole lot.
I did 10 on threadmill, 10 on rower
and 45 back/biceps workout
I often walk there and back so that is more cardio I do not list

[squeaker]

WOO HOO!

You exercising girls are amazing.

[ellis]

Thank you, Squeak.

Virginia, you're doing great!!
Uh huh... I WAS doing more weights, but I've decided I really just need to burn calories right now. I'm still building muscle by running and biking etc, so I'm just going to concentrate on that right now. I think I have a tendancy to bulk up instead of losing weight, which is all very well, but I'd like to see a SLIGHT drop on the scales after 4 months at the gym!!
I'm going to do 10 or 20 minutes of weights, too. I'm just REALLY sluggish right now, and I need to burn those calories and get a little energy back

hugs to all !

[Wanttolosealot]

Good for you Ellis! I am glad you are at least doing some weights still. You are really doing well. i hope you are feeling much better soon.
You are all doing so well, keep up the good work. you are inspiring me to get back at it.
Virginia

[mauvaisroux]

BLAH Where are you chicks getting all this energy from? I want some too!

Kat, Ellis and Virginia you are all doing great

I had my two daily walks today and then ran up and down four flights of stairs doing the laundry and also cleaned out my closet, does that count as exercise?

[rochemist]

Spent some me time at the gym.

47 min. on the treadmill (6 min. jogging!)
1 hr. weight lifting new challenge 10 reps. at 20 lb. free weights bicep curl

Everyone is doing great! Getting strong!
Miss Chris

[ellis]

Chris, you are amazing!! Doesn't it feel great to be able to jog?!

And Mauvais... OF COURSE stair climbing counts!! Are you kiddin'!?
You know it's strange. I can do an hour or more workout at the gym, but I'm out of breath climbing the two flights to our bedroom in the attic.
