Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy that's great, Michele! I am wondering how fast I can get to one million steps too! Since I started counting I am at 475,766!!! I will reach the halfway point this weekend!
The challenges really help me, too, Michelle! LOL I am in Beat the Bulge game and have had to start measuring because we get points for inches lost. I am working my butt off (literally LOL) and still not in first place! Wow that bunch is hard to keep up with! Game 2 is over this weekend and we start Game 3; and I am getting in better shape all the time LOL. But the neat part is we are ALL winners... or LOSERS depending on how you look at it!! \o/
Dee, I know what you mean about days off! I am getting to where I don't WANT them LOL! And can't wait to see the website!!

I reeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllly want that 25th pound to go this morning! It has been hanging on for dear life for over a week now! Yesterday it looked like it was struggling and almost ready to let go... but it just keeps on clinging! Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhh GO AWAY!!!
I am going to follow Lumi's idea and make myself a nice certificate for my wall for the 25 pounds... LOL it would be good if I could make it and put it up tomorrow!!!
I got in a little yoga, a trampoline warm-up and my regular mill workout. So I feel great.. During the workout I even stated running 3 times at 5.4 mph at a 7% incline.. ok.. not for long but it felt great. After the first two times I was determined to get 3 miles in under 1 hour. And I did.. barely.. just 11 seconds to spare.
Give yourselves a pat on the back, we have collectively walked 594.67 miles (with my 8 from yesterday and today), and we'll be at 600 miles in no time. It's 623 miles to Cleveland, OH so we are almost there.
Misti, way to go with logging those miles and getting rid of that 25th pound, all your hard work is paying off, and thanks so much for keeping the tally and location while I am away.
Michele, yes I meant steps, but still very impressive, LOL.
I am going to walk my butt off (if only...) while I am on vacation, I can't wait to log in Wednesday and report back.
Chat with you soon!

Well... I was bad and didn't walk home from work today. But at least I did my two miles this morning! You guys are all doing great! Good job on that 25th lb Misti! I'm trying to make it to 20lbs lost, but I keep going up and down a bit more drastically than I want. Maybe I can make it this week. Hope everyone had a great day!
Had an OK day, considering all the testing. Exercising got put off til later in the evening because hubby decided we'd go out for supper. We went to the local Chinese place, which I love, but I don't usually make the best choices. I had sesame chicken with steamed rice. But the kicker was 2 egg rolls. I love them and don't often get them because I KNOW how bad they must be for me. However, I didn't eat much of my chicken, so I didn't overindulge and will have leftovers for at least 2 meals. It's a new day.....I can't dwell on the past.
Congrats, Misti, on the 25 pounds! I'd be thrilled with 10! I keep gaining and losing the same 1-2 pounds and it keeps me from losing my 10th. Believe me, you'll know it when I finally lose 10 pounds!!
Everyone will be gone from 9-12 this morning, so I'm planning on either hitting the elliptical at the middle school or doing a longer 4-5 mile WATP. Haven't decided which yet.
Hope everyone has a great Saturday! It's finally looking like we might have some sunshine instead of clouds and rain. Of course, that means lawn-mowing will soon begin again.
Good morning, everyone! We are now over 600 miles wow. I am exhausted this morning so this may be a slow day for me, even though Saturday is usually my "big day" for walking! Hope you all have a great weekend.
