Everyone is doing great, fab to see so many people keeping up with this challenge now the 'February slump' has begun, or so people tell me! It's the most likely month to drop out of exercise plans, I'm still waiting for that to happen to some people in my town, as the classes at my gym are still so hard to get into! You can reserve a place from one week before the class, so I called this morning to book onto next Saturday's Pump class as I want to change the day from Sunday to Saturday so I have the same instructor twice a week instead of two different ones. Anyway I rang up today at 9am, an hour after booking opened, to be told I was already on the reserve list, crazy!

Last night I did hydrojog, today is a rest/workout at home day and tomorrow I have Pump.

I really need to do my gym induction so I can use the machines when I can't get into the classes!

Adding 45 minutes for yesterday's session, keep moving eveyrone!

Wow, love the new thread, so great to see so many new faces!
Well, I finished January with 31 hours. Have had the flu for the past week (lovely gift from hubby lol) so no exercise for February yet. I am feeling better today so I may do a light bike ride later, still feeling nauseous though so not sure yet.

Did yoga last night and BodyPump this morning.... My husband and I do those classes together. I asked hubby if it hurt his man pride that I can lift more in BodyPump than he can.... Nope, but he says it gives him extra motivation to keep trying harder.

Tomorrow is my scheduled day off as I work on Sundays.

I'm up to 2 hrs so far this month. I'm walking a 1/2 marathon tomorrow, so I've been taking it a little easy so I'm rested up. I'm nervous. We walked a 10k last year, but this is the 1st time for the 1/2.

Have a great weekend everyone. I'll update y'all with my results.

Way to go you all ! I got 15 minutes is today - that's it! LOL Not even going to count it. Sunday and Monday are my lazy days. I'll be burning them up with you starting tomorrow.

Got my new BodyMedia Fit Core today in the mail too. I have to put it through it's paces!

Lazy weekend:(

But -and I know this an excuse- I was soooo sore from my C25K training on Friday, just standing and walking was quite painful. My poor, underused muscles better get used to moving more often!

Sunday:
WATP: 15 minutes
Today:
Lunchtime walk: 35 minutes -gorgeous day!

That's the beauty of counting in minutes....every millisecond counts :D

You all are doing great! I got a nasty cold, so took it easy a couple days. Today I have to get back to it and feel better after a full night of sleep. Yay! My new bodymedia core is awesome and so far seems pretty darn accurate. Nice to see, even on my very, very lazy days that I had a calorie deficit - however slight. Means that I at least didn't move in the wrong direction!

Keep it up gals!

Hey all, just checking in. I got all of one hour so far in February, I was sick for the first week and all this week I've been in the hospital with my mom, she had a massive pulmonary embolism and nearly died. She is doing amazingly well now, may go home today. I am so glad that I got so much extra exercise in January!
