Height: 5'7"

(2 hours total, 4.5 miles done)
I'm so psyched that I joined a challenge at the Y called "4th QUARTER CHALLENGE" where we'll compete on teams. (comparing mins of workouts done at the Y) It goes for the next 3 months (final quarter of 2012.) They'll highlight a different exercise class each week and any participant who takes that class gets to count their minutes for the week as double. Sounds fun and will definitely help keep us accountable. Neat way to try new classes too. My team is sooooo gonna win!
Mon-Sat I have been doing 2 hours on the elliptical. On 8 of Oct I weighed in at 221 and tonight I weighed in at 217.08oz Going to try stair climbing; which I got this idea from another member.

Congratulations on your weight loss! Isn't it wonderful to see the number go down but also know it is because you've been working hard to change your life
Whether you mean stair climbing as in actual flights of stairs, or the Stair Master, I have to agree with that other member that inspired you that it is an excellent workout. I take stairs whenever I can, and also use the Stair Master at my gym. I love the intensity and how I feel afterwards, but with any exercise, take care of yourself. The Stair Master can be hard on your knees and for me, my ankles tend to stiffen up a bit.
Happy Sunday all!
I ran/walked 11 miles in the morning
Walked 3 more miles before 1PM
today's workout was 14 miles.
I'm sure I'll go easier tomorrow but I'm very happy today!
