Blah

I got up at 6:30 this morning

and did a bellydance fitness tape....I can't believe I am up this early on Saturday morning

ellis · 05-31-2003, 07:48 AM

I can't believe you are either!!

That's supposed to be MY quiet time, and I slept in until 7:45 this morning!
Just think how good you'll feel all day... you've already exercised!!!

I walked again yesterday afternoon with Hershey - to the Bank and then around the Fairgrounds. Hershey actually ran! One of these days I'll run too. Right now I am too afraid of falling and breaking something else! Enough of the shoulder and wrist problems already!
(I hope I'm not turning into one of those frail old ladies who is afraid to fall in case she breaks a hip and has to go to a nursing home and pray for pneumonia to get away from the crappy food! Will you chicks come and visit me - and bring my dogs?)

First of all, you are NOT going to turn into one of those frail old ladies!! But yes, we WILL come and visit just in case you do. We will bring you whisky, dogs, and shrimp toast.

Got up a 6 am to do pilates - I am starting to feel my abs

Yay, Mauvais!!

Had a good workout at the Y this morning.

mauvaisroux · 06-04-2003, 10:45 AM

Did 1/2 hour of pilates this morning!

ellis · 06-04-2003, 10:53 AM

Good for you, Mauvais!!

I was tired this morning, but had a surprisingly good (well, better than I thought it would be) workout at the gym.

So far since I left for work I have done about 3,000 steps. Mostly from pacing in the aisle outside my cube.

squeaker · 06-05-2003, 06:47 AM

Up to 3600, and still at work. I am normally getting up for work now. At least I didn't come in until 7:30pm yesterday.

ellis · 06-05-2003, 07:39 AM

Squeak! That's wonderful!!

mauvaisroux · 06-05-2003, 08:06 AM

Yay-Squeaker

that is a great start!

I am actually thinking of picking up a pedometer this weekend -you girls are inspiring me!

Today I did my Tae Bo tape-boy can I feel it in my legs this morning!

ellis · 06-05-2003, 08:57 AM

Mauvais, you'll love it... I'm so glad that Lidian inspired me to buy one!
I find I'm MUCH more active than I used to be, simply because I'm aware of the number of steps I'm doing. I no longer try to "save steps" to conserve my energy. For instance, instead of leaving things at the bottom of the stairs to be carried up later, I'll take them up immediately so there's no accumulation of "junk" on the stairs.

Ruthxxx · 06-05-2003, 09:31 AM

Ok! OK! I'l find my frassing step counting thingie and get out the magnifying glass so I can figure out how to set the damned thing! My perfect sister does 10,000 per day. Maybe I can beat that. On the other hand, she lies sometimes!

squeaker · 06-05-2003, 10:00 AM

Well I am up to 4800 for today, and now I am home and going to bed.
