Hi! Welcome all newbies. I updated the list so please let me know if any of them are wrong. If I misspelled your name it was not on purpose as I was typing I was holding my VERY ACTIVE 6 mth. old. I'm off to an o.k. start with this challenge but there is still plenty of time to make it up.
Tonya- you might want to check ebay they seem to sell everything. Not sure which ones are good.
Everyone keep up the good work. TTYL
Good Morning Happy Walkers/riders. I'm right on target this week, however, I need to get a little ahead because I'll be out of town Tuesday and Wednesday of next week. I will be setting in meetings for two days not to mention the two and a half drive going then coming back. Does butt spreading sound appealing, NOT! Have a great day.
Hi everyone,
I am doing great I already have 10 mile under my belt. I just rented the Walk away pounds 3 mile from the library, so that has helped out since it has been raining the past couple days. This challenge has kept me working my but off, which is great.

Hi Everyone,
This is going to be a tough challenge for me. Been having problems with my foot that has really prevented me from doing any sort of long term exercise. I'm feeling quite frustrated at not being able to get my walking in and I will be travelling for the first 3 weeks in September which is going to make it even more difficult.
I will still plug away - better a little something than alot of nothing!
Put me down for a teensy 4 miles this week.... Can I swap my 30 mile pledge for 2000 ab crunches
Hope everyone had a good week, it sounds like a lot of exercising going on. My total for the week is 17 miles not as much as I would like, but I was away for the weekend soooooo the only exercise I did was raise my hand to my mouth, lots of food intake, LOL... oh well I am on holidays this week coming so there will be a lot of bike riding happening.....at least I got in a bit last week..
Well girls keep up the great work..... and have a good week....
Hey JessAmy, how do you like the Walk Away the Pounds Tapes. I've just started them. I did the three mile Sat and Sun and the two mile this morning. OMGoodness, I was very impressed.....I truly thought they would be too easy for me since I had been doing five miles on another machine. Add the weights and if that doesn't slide some pounds off I don't know what will. I have muscles that I never knew I had......
I'm out of town for the next two days so you gals keep up the great work.
Some of you have done more in a week then I have in a couple of weeks! Boy, y'all are inspirational!!!!!!!!! I'm happy to report I joined the YMCA today and have an appt. with a trainer tomorrow morning YIPEEE!! I'm using a trainer to set up a plan because they will push me more than I push myself. I also started doing WW (on my own to save $$) since Fri. and have been OP everyday. Even passed up pizza as my dh ate it because it was too many points. I feel like I finally have the push to do this and be successful! It has taken many years to get to this point. 3fc definetly helped me along with all the support you get here, THANK YOU! Everyone have a great week. I'll check in later!
My first day of holidays and I rode 14.5 miles, wow it was great, I hope the rest of the week will be as good.
Hey Jacksonmom, congrats on your new endevor, I have been doing ww from home for 3 years, I did not join I got all the books and forms and did well from home and have maintained it also. You will find it easy to do and you will loose the weight, it is a great program and you will be able to follow this for the rest of your life. It is a great way to go.... Good Luck

Yay Jacksonmom for taking that big step and joining the Y. They have lots of great programs to keep you interested and regular folks just plugging away like yourself. And a trainer too! It's such a worthwhile thing to do. They will show you form and technique and like you said push you harder than you will do yourself. Even tho I call my trainer Mr. Evil and grunt "does it LOOK like I can do 25 more reps???????" I really like our time together. I'm sweaty and ugly and wobbly when I stumble out once a week but I feel so darn GOOD. You'll love it! Congrats on passing up the pizza too. You're on your way!
Suzanne, 14.5 miles in one shot. That is wonderful... Nice posting for you too Stef and Debbie.
Semo, I too got the Walk Away the Pounds tapes and thought, this is a weenie workout. No way! I was pleasantly surprised. And the time passes quickly too.
Well, better get moving here. Can't count miles logged at the computer for anything. Have a great week everyone.
Hi everyone as of today I have 20 miles. I started taking a college cardio fitness class since I needed to take one more credit to be full time student. I am so glad I did, because we walked, cycled 4 miles today.
Yes I did like the Walk away Pounds tapes. But they could use faster music. I just turned down the tape and put my music on.
madtypist/jacksonmom.... What books can you get for the WW program. I heard someone was making spreadsheets. I would like to do it at home, any suggestions on how to start. I can use all the information you can provide. Thanks bunches!
Well have to read my health book, talk to everyone soon.
