Not so good Michelle, got 2 more in, think that makes me 13 for hte month? but i have a busy week with school so i am just locking myself in the house, and walking, studying, walking and writing papers. i must i must get back on track.
Heather I look at it this way, some exercise is better than none!! You are doing great!! Hopefully life slows down for you a little bit Keep it up girly!
Michelle
Michelle, I truly admire that you walk in the morning and then again in the afternoon. YOU GO GIRL! that is awesome!
I was wondering how long have you been walking twice a day? and if you have a bunch of Leslie Sansonne's walking tapes that you swap out for variety so that you don't get bored doing the same ole ones???
I think I have most of her tapes, but I believe she has some new ones coming out (or already out) that I haven't checked into you.
And have you lost 18 lbs since May 1??? just noticed your stats! that would be an awesome weight loss in a short period of time, but you are really exercising your buns off (literally). you are doing GREAT!!!!
Cathy I have been walking twice a day for about 2.5 weeks maybe a little less but I'm just feeling soo compelled to push myself. I actually have lost 18 lbs since April 8 lol I started on atkins then switched to south beach at my doctors request, but I also take weight loss meds I've been on them since the first of may the day I started sb and I lost 10lbs in one week and 11 lbs total. It is a prescription drug though and along with all my exercising and eating right I'm really starting to feel good again
I have leslies 1,2 and 3 mile dvd and I just mix and match to how I'm feeling like somedays if I feel tired or hurting I'll do the one mile twice, or the 2 mile and the one mile, and so on and so forth, its not so much the distance that matters but the time that you do it so even if its the easy mile I'm still burning approximately the same calories as I would doing a little bit faster walk. I don't know what it is lately though but I just want to do more and more I hope that this doesnt turn into some horrible obsession lol. Oh I forgot, when you have the dvd's it is so easy to just go back to the beginning and redo a segment with no time lost I love it. The WATP is the most versatile exercise program I have found with out making me feel like a fool for leaping all over the living room aerobics style lol I'm not a dancer never will be
MichelleR- I too lost 12 pounds on Atkins and I just felt so GREASY all the time! So you like South Beach better? Can you eat as many veggies as you want or what? I wonder what would happen if I keep doing Atkins but eat as many veggies as I want? I just might find out. I can't imagine it slowing down my weight loss. I mean they are veggies! Jeeze! lol
Well, I didn't get as much exercise in as I had planned on, but I got about a mile of walking in.
I woke late, and then cleaned and froze strawberries and rhubarb. Then I had some computer stuff to fix. Then I couldn't go to my church exercises because my son called and asked me to babysit while he went to a class. Then after babysitting I went shopping, so I had a busy day anyway, just no way to measure distance moved.
Sounds like you're all doing great. See ya tomorrow.
