Dcapulet!! Good to have you! I've added you to the list! Good luck!

T_Girl: Thank you for adding up your minutes! I'm still listing the separate ones because what would happen if you got only 680 minutes of strength training in? If I lumped it all together, you wouldn't get credit for all your cardio minutes! Of course, if you want only your overall minutes listed, I can easily edit it! Just let me know, chickie!!

Jazzy, it IS a great thread, isn't it?! This one and the weight loss one keep me inspired to do my best!

CMof4, I'm glad you're feeling better today! TOM is bad, but sometimes just waiting for him to get here already is worse!

Crystal, good idea to rest if you are sore. You'll be ready to go again on Sunday! Just remember you have a goal on the weight loss thread to stay accountable during the weekends, so don't take the day off food-wise!

Princess, good job on the Wii Active!

Bigknitter, how fun! You were in a parade! That really upped your minutes yesterday!

Mystical, you're welcome! Good job on the treadmill!

Hiya Lewis and Delphi! Lewis, good job on powering through! Delphi, I can see you.

[Late to the game]

Good morning, ladies. I just finished my upper body workout. Kind of difficult without a bench, but I am planning on getting one today. Yesterday I did 1 and a quarter miles on the treadmill. Not much, but I had done my lower body the day before, and my legs were sore. I think from now on, I'll do my cardio in the pool the day after my lower body workout. I have a real problem with patience. I can't stop thinking about what else I could be doing while on the treadmill. Does anyone else have this problem? Enjoy the 4th!

[Late to the game]

SCORE!!
I am now the proud owner a my very own weight bench! It was $119.00 (ouch), on sale for $79.00, AND I had a $10.00 coupon! I just love a good deal

[just_a_dreamy1]

Sweet!!

[Moralia]

So far, so good~ I've done my cardio 3 days out of the 4 so far, walking i've done (will have to see how many days) and bought a magazine today that has a toning routine in it... so i'm going to start that tonight!

[almostskinny]

I'm still too new to have my ticker in my signature, but I've run/jogged 5.6 miles so far this month. I have to say that actually writing my goal down and knowing that there are others that see it is really helping me stay motivated. So thanks to everyone who keeps posting in this group Sounds like everyone is doing so well too!

Thanks Jacqui, that's cool, I just didn't want to take up forty lines in the goals list, but I see it's just two lines so I'm sold! I hate to see next months goals, I wonder how more specific I can get, hmmmm. I have a whole month to figure it out.

Ladies, I'm so sorry!

I usually post in the July Weightloss Challenge thread. I couldn't figure out why a few of my posts seemed to have dissapeared. Then today, I realized that I had posted in this thread instead of that one

Oops!

[Jacqui_D]

Dreamy, most of us post in both anyway, so no worries! Believe me, you're not the only one who gets the threads mixed up!

[Jacqui_D]

Good morning Ladies!! I am just sitting here, trying to figure out if I am going to count July 1-5 (a Wednesday-Sunday) as my first "official" week of July, so that I can start the "second" week on a Monday, or if I will go ahead and count the actual July 1-7 (a Wednesday-Tuesday) as my first week. If I count only the first 5 days as the first week, that means I need to get strength training in today to meet my first week's goal. But if I include Monday and Tuesday as part of the first week (which it actually is), I could wait until tomorrow or the next day to do my strength training, and I could take today off, which I like to do on Sundays. My organized brain, however, likes starting the week on a Monday. It's nice and orderly that way, lol! I guess I'll see how I feel today! Right now, I am in a happy, motivated mood because I reached a new weight decade this morning!
