Okay Okay
 
Well, I got my motivation back.. I finally dropped below 260.. Maybe I'll get down to 250 this month after all... I walked home from work last night, and this morning I am starting my running, in addition to my walking home from work at least 3 times a week. And my neighbor wants to start going to the base gym with me, YAY! So maybe I'm back on track.

Heres' yesterdays:

Days walked: 5/9
Miles: 2

WooHoo
 
So... this couch to 5k thing is either going to kill me, or really get me running to the point where I can start my marathon training in a few months. I've decided not to run the marathon til march, as I know I won't be ready by November. But OUCH. I just ran/walked a mile, and I feel great and ouchy all at once. I guess I'll be getting more miles in again now.

Had another good walking day. I've managed to stay above 10000 steps since last Thursday. Food was my problem yesterday. We had an appointment with our financial advisor last night at 5:30. As a result, we ate supper out when it ended. DD chose Olive Garden and I chose the chicken alfredo (uh-oh). I only ate half of it, but when I tracked the calories--YIKES! Won't be eating the leftovers--someone else in the family can have them!

Hope everyone has a great day!

Had a good day yesterday. It turned out to be a nice day instead of having rain. :) It's supposed to be nice out today too. I'm not sure how much walking I'll get in. I need to get some cleaning done. Have a great day all.

Well, I busted my pedometer, so looks like this will be my last update... At the rate we're going ya'll may make it to Misti's before I can get a new one!

5/7: 1.15 miles
5/8: 1.10 miles

Total so far: 67.82 miles

Ummm... okay, scratch that whole first paragraph! My brilliant and oh-so-lovable hubby just read my post over my shoulder, grabbed my dead pedometer off of my desk, pried it open and fixed it. I love my geek!

So! 5/9: 1.08 miles

Adjusted total: 68.90 miles total

:D

What's not to love about our "geek" husbands! I wouldn't trade mine in for the world. Plus he's sexy... but that's besides the point.. tee hee
I didn;t get to walk today, took a day off due to ALOT of pain in my shins (sp)... But I will walk tomorrow!

I walked around my girlfriend property so I just estimated. She has three houses on the back side of her property and it was such a beautiful evening yesterday she gave me the grand tour. It is nice to have someone to chat with. Doesn't make the walking seem like exercise.

Good Morning Ladies
 
Day: 5/11
Miles: .5

Well, I convinced a friend here on base to go to the base gym with me yesterday, she's been complaining about gaining some weight and needing to tone up (she's a whopping 105lbs, lol). She'd never been in a gym before, and was scared to do a lot, especially because she was very conscious of the hot guys working out, but I got a great workout, hence the low miles today, I'M SORE!

Hope you guys have a great day.....

A bit of a slower day yesterday. Didn't need to be. I had planned on doing a second mile last night, but by the time I got back from taking the kids to church group and going to the grocery store (and running into a parent who wanted a conference right THERE!), it was 7:00. I decided to watch one of my favorite shows-Alias. Then, it was LOST. Then it was bedtime! So, not the best choices, but sometimes you gotta RELAX! LOL

I'll do 2-3 miles tonight while everyone is gone (Scouts and dance night).

Have a nice Thursday!

Michele :wave:

Misti in Seattle 05-11-2006 08:07 AM

Hope everyone has a great day! All this walking is wonderful and HAS to be doing good things for us! Someone in another thread even commented to me (from seeing my ticker) how far we have come!!! When we get to Seattle, are we going to head down the Left Coast? :) Anyone here live in the Portland, western WA or OR, or California coast areas whom we could come and "visit" next? :) Personally I don't want this to stop when I get home! :)

Lydia, I like your new avatar!!! And Dee, good to see those feet moving again LOL

Our new total is 1682.94!!! Yayyyyyyyy We still have a couple hundred miles to go before we make Rapid City... let's hit it by weekend, okay? :) Everyone keep moving!!! :kickcan:

At this rate, I should reach 100 miles by Sunday! :D I was going to walk more last night, but after I got done watching AI and UNAN1MOUS and talking to my boyfriend, I was too laid-back to get myself up. Ah well, today's another day!

BlynC 05-11-2006 01:59 PM

Congratulations Jayde! That's something to be proud of.

I don't have any new stats to report. I've been pretty under the weather :tired: the last couple of days, probably due to a new medication I have been on (hopefully this will pass!) I may try and do a little walking tonight if I'm feeling up to it.

I hope all of you are having a nice Thursday and are ready for Friday! And the weekend!!!

Had a great day yesterday as far as exercise is concerned! I hit about 14000 steps, including 3 fitness miles! Food is still a problem lately. My calories have been WAAAY out of whack. Oh, well.....I'll keep working at it and it will come.

Happy Friday!

Michele :wave:

Misti in Seattle 05-12-2006 08:22 AM

Great job, everybody!!! Michele way to go on all the steps!!! Christina hope you are better soon!

Hey Jayde... LOL your message with all the question marks has really messed up the thread with the sideways scroll stuff... maybe you could edit it and put in some spaces??? :)

Happy Friday! Oh and I did email Chris but have received no response. I hope she is okay... I don't mind keeping score but I am concerned about her. Besides, starting May 21 I won't be able to do it for a week since I will be on my cruise. Any volunteers to keep track of it for that time? If no one wants to, I can add it all up when I get back and you can surprise me with how far you go in that week. LOL I plan to be hauling butt too and hope to have some good miles to add when I get back!! :)

crk05 05-12-2006 10:19 AM

TGIF everyone! I am feeling a lot better today, and I'm so happy that the weekend is coming up. And tomorrow I'm going clothes shopping which is never a bad thing! I was able to get in a three-mile walk yesterday so I finally get to add to my total again!

Date: 5/11

Had an OK day. It's been cold and rainy here most of the week, which makes everything SOO gloomy. I'm home alone this morning (DD spent the night at a friend's house and DH and DS went geocaching), so I'm going to do a longer workout before they come home. Then DD and I need to do some shopping so she has everything she needs when softball starts on Monday. Tomorrow is going to be quiet and I'm going to ENJOY it!

Have a nice Saturday!
