You should check it out :)

Thanks Squishy! I'll have to check it out when I'm ready to do the 4 mile walk!

I've got the one called the Walk Diet. It has a 1 mile and a 2 mile routine. I also have the Walk and Kick one but I've only done half of it once, still too much on my knee.

I'm up to 9 miles for the month! I just might try the treadmill tomorrow. It's ancient and takes alot of work to do very little so I may not get much done but I'm gonna try.

Has anybody tried the George Foreman walking dvds? I bought a set of 2 today at Borders for $25. (Individually they were !9.99) I did the Walk and Box one this afternoon and I really like it a lot. The other one is a circuit training one. It doesn't measure the miles like WATP, but I'm going to call it 3 miles because it was 45 minutes.

ambabs 11-07-2005 06:23 PM

I did try the george forman ones, got it from blockbuster.com, but I couldn't do it. Too much bob and weave. My knee just couldn't take it and I coped out after about 10 minutes.

Count me for 12 miles this month. Today was my official weighin day, 8 pound total loss!! Anyways the fear of the scale hit me last night and I ended up doing 3 miles yesterday and another this morning.

Dinahgirl 11-07-2005 07:05 PM

I meant to write that individually they were 19.99, not !9.99. That wouldn't have been much of a deal. lol I'll be careful with my knees, Ambabs, but I suppose you could do just the walking rather than the bobbing and weaving. I was looking for a little change, although I love Leslie, too.

Thank you for starting the thread. I couldn't find one for this month and was sad. I have been trying to walk three miles a day and so far doing great. I have walked 19 miles so far this month. Wow that is amazing to me.

Hi everyone! :wave: Hey Trixie! :welcome2: I've been MIA too. I kinda quit exercising when we moved in July. I'm trying to get back into it again cause I got a little lumpy again. :mad: All my fault. Ugh.

Anyways, I got in a quick 1/2 mile today at lunch. Hope to get in more throughout the week. I can't believe its still in the 80's here in Texas! :sunny: Ok I'm outta here. :moped:

Trixie14 11-09-2005 10:22 AM

Hello Everyone! Hello ShoeQueen! Welcome back as well! hehe I also moved in July and started to lag behind with the exercise then...I tried to get back into it before now but this time I really want to stick to it (I say that everytime lol)

I walked 45 minutes on monday (15 to the post office and back, 20 to the corner store to pick up a paper and 10 to my babysitting job and back) 2.3 miles

I walked about 25 minutes yesterday (post office, and closer corner store to pick up paper because my boyfriends hip hurt so I didnt want to make him walk too far) 1.3 miles

I am up to 12.1 miles for November!

I've also lost 2lbs since last monday - I was 224.5, monday I was 223.5, Tuesday I was 223, today I am 222.5. I know it is probably just water weight but seeing results makes me want to try harder!

As far as my eating, I was doing weight watchers and couldnt figure out why by 3 or 4 I would have around 10 or less points left..I calculated the calories of everything and realized I was just over 1000, so if I was on a 1500 calorie diet I would only have 500 calories to last me, now Ive been eating healthy things, so it isnt like Ive been eating chips and pop all day, but I figure I need to cut down on portions and try to eat foods that will fill me up but have less calories so I can eat more! It will take me a while to get it right but Im determined to do it!!! :)

I hope everyone else is doing good, I dont know how much walking I will get in the rest of the week their calling for rain all week..I'd like to joiin a gym but the only ones here are Curves - which I dont think I would like - and some new gym that costs almost $50/mth, I can't afford that unfortunatly. Oh well I will just stick to walking hopefully. I hope the winter isn't too harsh on me or I will have to drag myself for a walk lol

Happy Walking!

It's been soooooooooooooooooo(!!!) long since I last posted... um... August, maybe(?). I dunno. Lost some. Gained some back. You know how it goes.

DH, DD and I are leaving for Disneyland in 3 weeks and I'm really hoping to be a few pounds lighter. Lots of protein, healthy carbs, and exercise (an avg of 8mi per week). That's the plan, anyway. ;)

I don't time to catch up with everyone right now, but I'll post again tonight to do so. Hope you're all keeping happy and healthy! Best wishes!

macdeez 11-10-2005 04:16 PM

luflic 11-11-2005 01:40 PM

I am so excited I have been faithful to the walking I have been making my three miles daily so far 31 miles that still astounds me!

blues4miles 11-11-2005 02:18 PM

Just got my first WATP video yesterday. I did just the 1 mile to try it out, though it came with 2 and 3 mile as well. I think I'll aim for 20 miles by the end of November.
