Great job, Sotypical! There's always time for some walking, even when watching TV.
I ordered a HRM, we'll see what it says when I got it and walk with it...

Hello everyone! So nice to see new faces!!

I took Sat. off but did the 5 Really Big Miles in it's entirety on Sunday (first time I did it all). Wow! What a workout. I had to back off on some of the moves because of my knees and still they were a bit sore. I put ice on them last night and they are doing better.

I did 3 miles this morning with weight belt.


I've never worn a pedometer or counted steps. I go by the mileage on each DVD and feel okay with that.

I never used to. But I find I try harder when I am wearing it. I know exactly how many steps I have taken, and if its not 10,000 I try really hard to get 10,000. Get off the bus early, park father away, etc. Stuff I normally don't think about if I don't have a step goal and know my numbers.

The other day for example I was at 17 flights of stairs, so I ran up and down the stairs more times until I got to 25 just to get my 25 flights of stairs badge.

Another 5 mile session here. I followed Sotypical advice and yesterday was watching part of the Oscars while walking in place. I am sure I looked a bit weird

Were you doing the video and watching the oscars?

Happy Tuesday!! I did miles 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the 5 Mile Fat Burning Walk this morning. Really wanted to get in that 5th mile, but ran out of time.

When I was walking while watching TV I just made up my own thing following the moves from the videos. I defiantly didn't go as fast as when I do the actual video - my FitBit tells me this, haha.

I thought about sticking a DVD in my laptop and have it playing while watching TV at the same time but that just sounded too tricky and knowing my luck I would kick the laptop off the coffee table or something.

I didn't get a video in yesterday, but I did get in 10,000 steps anyway.

This morning I got up at 5 so I could fit in a video before work - I did the 4 Mile Super Challenge.

Did the five really big miles the last 2 days, 3 in the morning and 2 in the evening.

I was watching the Oscars and just walking in place, no video, I totally looked weird but who cares, more miles!
I haven't done the video today, no time (birthday dinner :P portion control was hard but done ) now I am trying to walk a little bit at home to go over 10k steps.
It sounds like you guys did a good job today!

hey gang

I did 2 miles this morning. I used the 5 Day Slim Down dvd.

My oldest son finished the turnaround he was working yesterday sooooooo I have 5 am back to myself.

hope everybody has a great day!

Hello! I didn't get good sleep last night so I did almost 2 miles this morning. I used miles 1 & 2 of the 5 mile Fat Burning Walk.

I know how that goes. Only did 2 miles today.

Hi everybody, when you guys say "only" I don't think it is only, it's a lot! it means you are committed no matter what, even if you only have a little bit of time or you didn't get a good sleep. Every step counts!

And in case anybody was wondering, I finally got my HRM and I did the 5 mile walk with it and I burned 583 calories (weighing 191 lb. and 5'7") I think it's a very good workout!

Keep it up, ladies!!!

I agree with unimar!!! there is no ONLY about it!!! it's really hard to get up and exercise after a sleepless nite or when we're not feeling good! y'all are doing great!!!

unimar that is awesome news on the 583 calories fort hat walk. I'm going to start up the March thread, so would you please post that info there too so that everyone will see it. thanks so much.

see y'all on the march thread gang
