Sorry so late, I am still recovering from my trip to Orlando. Disney doesn't tell you anything you need to know, like you need 3 hours to get from a Disney Resort to the airport & the TSA wants you to have another 2 hours to get through security. I only had 2.5 hours, so I had to call a cab for a LOT of money. Also you need reservations at their restaurants even if you are a guest at the Resort. In conclusion, make sure you have extra time.

Also on my way out of Billy Mitchell (our airport) I always grab some of the Ziploc bags they have for you to use for your liquids, so I can just pack those at home & zip through the airport on my next trip.

WHEW! Ok then! Moving on. It is my goal this week to exercise on the weekend, not just power-clean my apt. Wish me luck!!

Monday: 10 min walk

Tuesday: 15 min walk

Hello Hello-


Well this week on exercise menu, just as last week I have been doing
15 min Elliptical
10-15 Bike
Then some free weights for the arms
And then some machines for thighs and legs
Then I finish her up with 50 crunches for the ab's....

I'll do this 3-4x this week.......

Good Luck everyone!!

Monday: 30 mins walk into town, 1 hour gym doing weights

Tuesday: 30 mins walk into town, 1 hour gym doing cardio

Wednesday: 30 mins walk into town and that'll probably be it - I've got an appointment after work and it'll be dark by the time I get home so...

Monday: 3 mile run; 40 minutes kickboxing
today: 6 mile run; 45 minutes elliptical

I've decided to do two workouts a few days a week, since I'm off for the summer and actually have the time. I'm hoping the extra exercise will help me get these last 11 pounds off so I can reach my goal!

Monday: rest day

Tuesday: Walked the dog, 30 minutes
The Firm Cardio Sculpt, 55 minutes

Wednesday: Going back to Boy Scout camp for dinner (pizza!). I am going to wear my pedometer to see how far I walk.

Well, I've done 25 minutes of weight training and I'm trying to talk myself into climbing onto my elliptical for the first time in 2 weeks (vacation - not lazy ) and see how it goes. However, it seems like I'm going to need a major kick in the pants to get it done!!!

45 min step aerobics class; 60 min bodysculpting class.

No running today!

I walked 5059 steps last night at camp!

That's a lot of steps, Nicki!!

I ran 3.1 miles in 31:45 on the treadmill today. I was supposed to do a cardio kickboxing class at the gym too, but my friend bailed on me and I didn't want to go alone. Also, my legs are really sore right now and I'm supposed to run 9 miles tomorrow. I really don't see it happening... but I figured I should rest them a little tonight!

Wow, Lisa! And you're always talking about how slow you run! Now I'm worried. I'm a SERIOUS plodder!

I ran 1.5 miles today with a 5 minute walk break in the middle (week 5 day 2 on C25K). I'm not going to tell my time! hehe

Hey all -- went back to the YMCA today and did about 35 minutes on the treadmill and 10 minutes on the bike.

I took yesterday off, and the day before I did 40 minutes on the treadmill and only 5 minutes on the elliptical.

This is only my first week of true exercising and I have a long way to go, but one step at a time (no pun intended!).

You know, I WISH I could be one of those types who were addicted to exercise and just couldn't get enough, you know?

Monday: kayaking around beautiful Orcas Island in Washington State
Tuesday: nothing--travel day
Wednesday: 40 min. run and almost 3 hours of kayaking
Thursday: 40 min. elliptical, 35 min. weight lifting, 25 min. stretching
Friday: 35 min. elliptical, 15 min. stationary bike, 30 min. weight lifting, 10 min. stretching
Saturday: 15 min. walk pushing my Dad in a wheelchair
Sunday: 35 min. run, bark dust shoveling

No no no! That was my "fast" run. Once a week I do 3.1 miles on a treadmill and I do intervals at speeds that I can't keep up for long...so I average out at a much faster pace than I normally do. When I do a normal run, it's MUCH slower!

Oh, and I forgot to add that I did 25 minutes of yoga today too! Lots of cool warrior pose stuff -- woohoo!

Okay! I'm inspired. I have been walking every night and interspersing some running with it. At first, I could not run a block, but I'm running farther and farther each night, and I'm running more often. (Still with the cheap shoes, though - I'm fat enough that I can wait to get better ones, right?) So tonight, I am going to the high school track and I WILL RUN 1/2 mile all in a row. It will be hard, but with the music pounding in my ears and my 11-year-old son making fun of me for running so much slower than he does, I will do it!
