  • Kayley -- good grief! you go girl, I'll watch from the sidelines!

    AliceEep -- you got it just right!

    Nancy -- So so right that convalescing from an illness or surgery is something we will probably all have to deal with. This is a challenge to you to learn how to come back from it. AND you can help US as well, by sharing your story of your ups and downs in the process!

    Misti -- no no! where's that shining attitude! You CANNOT fall under the spell of the scale! It is . YOU ARE DOING AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!

    Okay, as for me, only 25 min yesterday: walked the dogs and abs/back. I intended to do more but ended up spending many hours shopping for and cooking healthy food... such a struggle to keep the balance!

    Group total ~ 9331 + 25 = 9356 min!


    I want to see 10K before the weekend! What do you say?
  • I did 30 minutes on the elliptical yesterday. I felt like I could have done some more, but I didn't want to push myself too much. It was a good thing too because I was REALLY sore this morning. That brings my total to 135 minutes.

    Misti - That has to be water! Give it a few days and it should go as quickly as it came.

    The group total is now 9356 + 30 = 9386
  • Personal Goal : 770 of 840

    Group Total : 9386 + 30 = 9416
  • Well, good news... those nasty 3 pounds did go away again today! And LOL Heather... I TRY to have a good attitude, really I do; but every once in a while..... So here I am ... shine shine shine

    Hey I love your new avatar... you look smashing! Wow look at you skinny little thing!!!

    Nancy, LOL ya it could be all that water soaked in from the pool. I did water aerobics 4 days in a row. But not today.

    Today I got 62 minutes of aerobic walking
    1301 + 62 + 1363 July total
    2000 goal - 1363 = 637 still to go

    Yay I am going to make it easily!!!

    Group total 9416 + 62 = 9478
  • Nancy -- Yes, don't push too much!

    Ammi -- You're getting really regular exercise, huh? Woo hoo!!

    Misti -- TOLD YOU!! Glad the water went away and the scale is less now! It's okay to be down sometimes, I just didn't want you giving up!

    I got in 45 min today. Weights and a walk...

    Group total ~ 9478 + 45 = 9523 min!
