  • Oh man...just got done dancing for 30 mins...not to a dvd or anything, just to bouncy music...and it was even MORE high impact than my high impact dvd! LOL! I was jogging, and jumping around, and just looking like I was generally spazzing out! LOL!!!

    9610+30=9640
  • Wednesday - 30 minutes exercise ball, 20 minutes walking, 10 minutes stretching
    Thursday - 30 minutes exercise ball, 30 minutes walking, 10 minutes stretching, 10 minutes weights
    Friday (today) - 30 minutes walking

    So that makes it 9640+170 = 9810 minutes

    Whew! I got in another 60 minutes of exercise! Mom and I were going to take a walk down to the Industrial Park, and see about digging up some pretty rocks/stones to put in the garden...well, I decided I wanted to see if I could jog to the stop sign (about 2 city blocks, or about 1/6 of a mile, Mom believes)...well, I got halfway, jogging at a GOOD speed, and stopped...had to stretch for a minute, and then jogged the other half. I was SO proud of myself for making it...my lungs were burning, and I could FEEL it in my calves so much...sorry if it seems like I'm bragging, but I'm just so HAPPY for me...hehe. Then, we dug up rocks, which was a LOT of bending over, and I was out of breath a LOT...going up and down hills, and such. Then, we walked back.

    So, 9810+60=9870!!

    And I only have 185 minutes to make 800!!! Maybe, just MAYBE I'll make it! I've got the weekend still!! I CAN DO THIS! (maybe) lol
  • Adding another 20 minutes for exercise ball, 10 minutes stretching, and 10 minutes weights - for a total of 70 minutes today, and the group total of

    9870+40=9910 minutes
  • Went to the gym tonight for 30 minutes on the elliptical and 30 on the treadmill. I think I need some caffine now or something because it is only 8:30 and I am almost falling asleep! That brings my total to 1220.

    The group total is now 9910 + 60 = 9970
  • Woohoo -- I get to take us over 10K!!! Zelma, I agree that this is motivating, and hope others join us, but I have an idea I might institute next month for a tiny boost, maybe...

    kayley -- you're not far -- give it a shot!

    Went to the gym for weights and took the dogs on a nice walk for 40 min...

    Group total ~ 9970 + 40 = 10,010
  • Ooooh! What IS it, Wyllenn?!?!?!?!
  • Went to a gym with a day pass with Andrew this morning...I did 30 minutes on the treadmill, and I jogged for the last minute on it! Then, I decided to try the Elliptical...had never done one before, but I was able to do 10 minutes on it! I want one!!!
    10,010+40=10,050
  • Well, I must tell you, I am feeling super, super hyper from all the exercise I've had today.

    Did my morning bike ride - 60 min
    then a HARD dance class (did my FIRST EVER pliés- yes, as in more than one!!!) - 90 minutes

    Total workout today - 150 minutes

    I am sooooo jaazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzeddddddddddddddd.

    Group Total = 10,050 + 150 = 10,200

    Kayle - I totally want an elliptical too! :-)
  • I did 30 minutes exercise ball, 30 minutes walking, 10 minutes weights, and 10 minutes stretching again today.

    That leaves our total at 10,200+80 minutes = 10,280 minutes
  • Hiya Ladies..Well I went to my nutrition class again on friday..I am down some more lbs! whoohoo makes me happy. Tonight we went to my Aunts' house and I got 30 min of walking in! Friday my cousin got married and I swear I must have danced for hours! lol It was nice..I love dancing!

    My Goal 350 + 30 = 380

    Group total 10,200 + 30 = 10,230 minutes!
  • Sorry Ladies I meant to ask wyllen what is your new plan for us????I am so excitedabout May lol

  • Yesterday I had a more relaxed day and I did my yoga dvd, which is 30 minutes. That brings my total to 1250. I think I will make the time today to get 50 minutes in to bring my total to 1300 since that is what I have set for myself next month.

    The group total is now 10,230 + 30 = 10,260
  • Walked my dog 45 minutes this morning, putting me at 425 for the month, short of my 600 minute goal. That's OK. I'll do better in May!

    GROUP TOTAL 10,260 + 45 = 10,305
  • Need to post for Saturday AND Sunday, and they were both the same. 30 mins treadmill in mornings, and 20 mins home gym and 30 mins bike in afternoon. Making total for 2 days 160 mins.

    Personal Goal... 220 + 160 = 380 mins above April's goal of 1800

    SO... final amount for April is... 2180

    Group Total... 10,305 + 160 = 10,465

    I look forward to seeing the final amount seeing as we are down a few people lately. I think we are still doing VERY well.

    Take care,

    Zelma
