Hello everyone Hope everyone had a great day, and got their walking in!

I did my one mile tape this morning. When I first started the tape, my legs, were so sore. It was from the muscles stretching. They were not used to moving so much lol. I love the WATP tapes though, because you are using many more muscles during the video than walking outdoors. I can REALLY feel the difference.

About 20 minutes ago I completed the 1 mile tape again. I honestly can't say when I may step up to the 2 mile tape. I think I may stick to the 1 mile for about a month. Hopefully I can continue to do it 1 - 2 times per day.

I feel great though, and I even got in almost all of my water today! My goal is 120 oz and today I got in 111 oz. So pretty darn close!

Well - I hope you are all doing well. Keep us posted on your goals!

Talk to ya tomorrow!

The thing I like about WATP tapes is that they are for everyone. Even though I am 30 lbs over weight but I have been exercising forever. I can't do high impact because of two knee surgeries so I am add weights to the tapes or make them bigger moves and they work for anyone.

Welcome CutieCourt and Kapinni

Way to go on setting your goals! I know you'll be able to make it!

I honestly didn't think the 1 mile workout would be too hard, but I sure got a work out, out of it! lol.

I will do another mile shortly

Hi,
I hope you don't mind me popping in here. I just saw the WATP in the title and had to join you all!. I have all of Leslie's walks and have used her workouts for going on two years. Of course I've fallen off the wagon many times but when I get motivated again I always reach for Leslie's workouts. I think the 40 mile April challenge is a good one. I like to do her 1 mile or sometimes her 2 mile before work and then another 1 or 2 in the evenings. On the weekends I have her 4 mile walk and I will do that on Saturday or Sunday. I've saved most of her walk plans from her old website and will use these every now and then especially after I've taken a break from working out. Leslie's workouts are the only ones that I've ever stuck with. All the others sit on a shelf. I have a Gazelle that I like too but I feel I get a better workout with Leslie. I hope you all don't mind if I join you!

Last night I did a 2 mile and this morning I did a 1 mile. So that looks like 37 more for me too!

Welcome ras8779 - We don't mind you popping in at all! So glad you decided to join in on the challenge!

I just started the WATP tapes yesterday and I love them already! Last night on the way home from work, all I could think about was getting home and doing my 1 mile tape again. (I was pretty excited) lol.

Last night when I was exercising to the 1 mile tape, there is a part where Leslie gets so excited about the weighted balls, and she says, "I love these, I LOVE these weighted balls!". And she says it in such a funny way that I just cannot help laughing! I thought it was so funny.

Well - off to walk a mile! Hope everyone has a great day!

Gah, fell off the wagon yesterday and didn't do my walking. Shame on me! Going to do two miles tonight to make up for it - two trips of the one mile, I think, so I can get a break for my poor self in between. Not quite used to it all yet.

Hey aphrodeia - Everyone "falls off the wagon" every now and again. I don't think you fell off, you're still hanging on. Your next step is to pull yourself back up, and keep up the good work!

You can do it! I know you can!

This morning I only completed a .25 mile of the 1 mile video because I had to leave, but I will finish the video tonigh, and *maybe* go through it again, so I can get 2 miles in. We'll see how I feel though.

How are the rest of you doing??

Did it! Got my two miles in. That rest in between was soooo necessary right now Hopefully next week I can graduate to the two mile tape!

Thanks for the encouragement, Kari! You're fabulous!

I'm the queen at falling off the wagon. I've done it so many times that now I just bounce. I usually break my two miles up too. One in the morning and one after work or if I'm really going strong I'll do two. After you do Leslie a while you want to do more of them. I swear she's addicting. So tonight it will be a one or a two mile. Good job everybody! Keep it up!

Well I got home from work a few hours ago and I just completed one full WATP mile. This mornig I only did .25 mile so that makes 1.25 miles so far.

Way to go aphrodeia on getting in your two miles today!!!

ras8779 - I agree, Leslies videos can be addicting! I'm already doing some reasearch on her other videos, so once I get past the 3 miles, I can be ready for whatever is next

Jennifer 3FC - way to go on getting in 12 miles so far!

I may walk another mile here in a little bit, we'll see though.

Happy Walking!
