  • Me again I did the oliptical trainer for 30 min today hit 375 cals. I get to have ozzy in the morning so I better get to bed!!! he will really work me out!!
  • I'm back in !!
    Okay, I slacked off but I'm back!

    I spent five hours Monday digging up shurbs and moving them around the yard, planting, scrubbing the gazebo and furniture. Surely that counts for something!

    This morning is Richard Simmons work out tape. DH and I are trying to coordinate time and start the gym again. Hopefully at least twice this week.

    I've got to do this. Pushing shovels and bending yesterday just about killed me! Sure is a reminder of how out of shape I really am!

  • MammaJ

    you are doing great. What a accomplishment moving all those shrubs afound and the digging can sure use muscles that have not been seen in yeasr, especially mine!!!

    I did 20 min at about 3 mph on the tread mill went 1.3 mi, then did upper body workout, then for the finnale Ozzy made me do the oliptical for 15 min I almost died!!!! I did 190 cals in that 15 min. I did 6 min backwards. OMG
  • Sue,
    I am jumping in with you on the exercise. 30 minutes on the nordic track and about 15-20 minutes of stretches and tummy tucks. Looking forward to more tomorrow .

  • Wednesday today and got the exercise routine in already . Did 30 minutes on the nordic track (I love the nordic track - within 10 minutes I am sweating like there is no tomorrow!!!) and then did some leg lifts, tummy tucks and butt tucks. Ended the session with some stretches. Probably a total of about 45 minutes.

    How is everyone else doing with the big EEEEEE?

I tried to describe it with dignity, but Rich made me laugh so hard I almost wet my britches! Thanks for reminding me..I got some exercise from laughing this morning!
