Thanks for the welcomes. Here is where the accountability hits the road:

Wednesday, I was on plan with a 20 minute cardio walk/jog and then about 45min weight training for total body. But last night was a bust.. I should have done my C25K run which is 25 minutes or about 2 miles for me. I had some afternoon appointments and because my schedule wasn't normal, I didn't go out :rollpin:. Here's the thing, this is my first week where I've set my goal to increase my exercise through more cardio and WT. I know that this is a set up for a lifetime and there will be scheduling conflicts, etc that I will need to work around. On one hand, I know that if I go right back on plan the next day - no harm, but if I pick up complacency along the way, that will be a recipe for trouble. I am very near my weight goal, so I'm spending a lot more focus on discipline of the exercise leg of weight management, so I'm taking this accountability more to heart than normal. Thanks for being there for me.

Tonight I will go do my C25K run for 25 minutes along with some walking for 15-20 minutes before and after. And then tomorrow will do some light cardio with WT. Sunday I will try for an active rest day and see if the family wants to go biking or something.

Does it use extra calories to type with a cat on your arm? He's a big cat.

Dear Susan Schlump,
Are you doing bicep curls with that cat on your lap? If so, it does count as exercise...
Sincerely,
Ilene :hug:

Good for you for biking Susan, I biked too... It was very humid here today ...

srmb60 08-19-2006 09:28 PM

Dear Ilene Go-getter,
No but he got in the way when I was doing tricep kickbacks. Tricep bop Max ??? Humid? Not here. It was a pretty nice day. Sprinkled a bit at lunch time.

I did 20 minutes of arms. I am out of practice!

Hi~
I love the idea of exercise accountability.
I'm currently trying to do the couch to 5K plan but I'm not in good enough shape so I'm doing my own week 0 of 30 min of 1 min jog, 1.5 min walk. So thats what I did today.
