Glad to see you out there walking, flower1! Tabbycat, it looks like you're well on the way to your goal!
I'm pleased with my progress, but I want to get some more strength-training in again. I'm babying my left shoulder due to some pain, but there are other parts of my body that I can strengthen.

05: 20 walk (20/350 min; 1/10 days)
07: 20 walk (40/350 min; 2/10)

I like your weight loss program! But I would like to add breaks to classes on the horizontal bar and uneven bars (who can’t do it just hanging)! Because they relax your legs and strengthen other muscle groups!

flower1: Improved weather is definitely helping the frequency and lengths of my walks. We're having a brief cold spell, but things will get better tomorrow.
