Hi Aphil, I've seen your name on the boards before but haven't had the chance to get to know you. So anyway glad that I have the opportunity now. Happy that you are joining us, sounds as if you really have a great workout routine.

Friday, March 7th

710 - 40 = 670

Well-I go tmy 45 minutes in for the day...
850-45+805 left for the month!
Thanks for the welcome SEMO, I have seen you around here as well...my workout schedule is pretty varied. I do this for a few reasons...I weight train my full body on Mondays and Fridays-to allow for the minimum 48 hours of rest needed between weight training all body parts-with the exception of the abs, which can be strenght trained daily. I do a session of Pilates on Wednesdays-which is giving extra work on my abs, as well as strengthening and stretching my back-it has done wonders for me, as I used to have chronic back pain. I have an hour bellydance class each week on Tuesdays, and I practice bellydancing at home on Thursdays-I count this towards my cardio exercise. I do yoga on Saturdays and Sundays, for relaxation, extra stretching and aligning of my back, and to get more flexibility, which helps in doing certain moves in Middle Eastern dance-so it helps in many ways. Sometimes I have an extra bit of dancing in on the weekend, if I just feel like doing it, or there is an open house or such at the dance collective-or a light wal outside if it is a nice day.
So-I exercise every day...but doing different things at different intensities-and I never get bored. The last few years I have truly made it a part of my life-which is the whole idea.
This thread is a good idea...all of those 15 minutes here and 30 minutes there really add up!

Well I did 10 minutes of ab work, and I have a dance class that starts in just a bit-it is an hour long, but I'll put it as 50 minutes-for when we are learning a new move or watching someone else do something. So-60 minutes today.

590-40=550

KitKat, I am seeing a difference, NO MORE SHOULDER PADS, and my abs are getting better, not greatyet but better than they were. I have to get serious about my eating tho, havn't lost a pound since I started. I did start a low carb diet on Monday so we'll see how it goes. Day 37 today.

I got 30 minutes of Pilates in today...
850 start/170 done/680 left
You know-this is a really great way of looking at our exercise. I always see my 30 minutes, or 1 hour as just that. It is great to see it from a weekly and monthly point of view-to see those minutes turn into hours and hours...:D
I am down another pound to 180-I am totally going to be doing a happy dance when I am in the 170's. I have been working hard, and the last couple pounds that have come off are really starting to reveal some definition in my shoulders and biceps.

Good Morning Ladies. The sun is out and we are having some warm temps for a change. Amazing what a little sunshine can do for the soul.:)

Aphil, congrats on the loss! :cp: You'll be in the 170's by next week. WooHoo.
