We're now entering week 6.

I don't think that I'll have any time to workout this week. Currently getting over being sick and I move on Thr. But, the packing is activity, so I'm not losing out too much.

Good luck to everyone

Just got back from my morning walk. I went with my friend and she brought her new puppy. The puppy did great..followed us closely without the leash. Her legs are so short and we had to carry her a lot of the way, but for 9 weeks....she did fine.

Dogs are cute. I was visiting my dad once and we took his 3 dogs for a walk . . . it ended up with the dogs trotting and dragging me behind them.

Back from the gym. I actually legitimately ran for 15 minutes. I haven't done that in so long! The rest was speedwalking and a bit of the bike.

I didn't get to work out Friday as I was out of town w/ the family. Did get in 2.1 miles of walking around the little town of Staunton, Virginia on Saturday though.

The wife & I hit the park trails yesterday & put in 4.4 miles. Had a great walk. The weather was really great.

I'll be hitting the gym this afternoon for weights & cardio. I'll be weighing in again too.

Helped a friend move on Saturday. She is in a second floor apartment so I got a great workout. Just shoveled s@*& yesterday. Did some weights this morning and hoping to get some cardio in this afternoon.

Totally blew the diet on Sat though. Was worth it. My opa made some great ribs. Yummy!

Hi all!

Man, my run today was rough! Turned into more walking than running. The culprit: my stupid asthma. Grr argh. But at least I got some exercising in, even if it was only 30 minutes...oh well! Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day.

Same here, Persephone. Had a pretty decent asthma attack last night, so I just kept to walking today. Walked a mile. I figure it's better than nothing. Tomorrow I'm going to stay in and do my kickboxing DVD. Hopefully by Thursday I'll be back to my regular self.

Okay, hit the weights hard on Monday the 24th & did some light cardio. Weighed in at 248 lb so I have lost 6 lb since my last weigh in.

Did straight cardio last night. Burned over 500 calories between the cross trainer, treadmill & stationary bike.

I'll be in the gym again this afternoon.

Yesterday was my day off from working out and I was definitely feeling pretty antsy.

Finished my workout today. 45 minutes of cardio and now I need to go stretch and stuff.

Short walk today, probably only 1.5 miles. O well, still got one in at least. What has happened to our special little club? Our numbers seem to be dwindling. We need to get out there and start recruiting people!

I was just wondering where everyone was as well!

Last I was called to go out with friends, so I just did my pilates DVD. Now I'm hungover (bad Kelly!) but hopefully I can get in some sort of workout today.

Ummmm so this is working for me.
Hoodia to make me not want to eat and then duozymes to help me digest what I do eat.
Be forwarned however! Forget to take the hoodia to long and suddenly you'll have an uncontrollable urge to eat a double western bacon cheese burger with onion rings and a chocolate milkshake.

An I carried such a torch

I've taken Hoodia before. I think I might still have some lying around; I'd almost forgotten I had it.

Finished my walk for the day- 1.5 miles, not the best but at least it's something. Hope everyone else is doing well!!

OK, so I just decided to take the day off today. I was too dehydrated to do anything strenuous.

But I have good news! I just measured my waist, and I've lost an inch already! I'm very excited.

Think I might try some light stretching before bed. Not much of a workout, but at least it's something!

Yay! I just got back from the gym and did my standard 60 minutes of cardio. Running is getting easier--by next week I hope to be at a solid 20 minutes of running.

And more good news. 2 lbs lost!!!!!!

Which made me completely happy because right now I'm stressed out about the end of semester and trying to figure out what I'm doing this summer. I've limited it to 6 weeks in Madison and then 6-8 weeks in Hawaii working on an organic farm or in a hostel OR staying in Madison working a lot OR staying in Madison and not really working.

It seems lazy to not want to work, but I've been employed since the age of 14 and this is possibly my last chance at a free summer because next year I'm off to Vietnam!

It's good to see people are making progress

I just "finished" moving. Got the network set up, so the data is flowing again

IMO, what I had to do to run the wire and get the boxes up and running should be considered a workout. Especially since I am still recoving from my sicky time.

Next comes the unpacking... *sigh*

Managed to do some arm work and a few sets of squats/lunges which I haven't done in a long while (well, about a week I guess). Anyway, feeling much better than I have been so I'm planning on a getting in a decent walk later- we'll see.

I'm going to a few parks today to help my friend who is a photographer scout out some well-lit areas for a wedding she is shooting tomorrow. I think I'll put on my pedometer and see how many miles I walked from that.

Still very excited about losing an inch! Can't believe it left so quickly! Here is a very crappy photo of me that I took yesterday, but I thought you guys might enjoy it since I'm dressed as Dancing River from Safe.

Like I said, crappy pic, but now you kinda know what I look like after all this exercise. I have better pics if anyone wants to see, but none that really show a whole body shot.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

You look great! Love the outfit and congrats on losing that one inch! I know how important every inch is. By the way, where'd you get that sweater?

I just got a 2.5 mile walk in which is better than I've done in the past week so yay! My monthly weigh in is coming up in two days so I'm a bit nervous, o well.

Back from the gym . . . 30 on the elliptical and another 30 on the treadmill.

And most importantly, I jumped on the scale wearing my workout clothes, shoes, pullover pants, a sweatshirt, and with random crap in my pocket came out at last week's weight. Which means the number from yesterday wasn't a fluke! I'm finally dominating my crappy metabolism! YES!

Thanks everyone! Here's a couple pics of me when I'm not Riverfied, if you're interested: http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b160/hobbitseeker/newhairday3 .jpg and http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b160/hobbitseeker/punkhair .jpg

(copy and paste the link, then get rid of the space before the .jpg to view)

So our little photo shoot got cancelled due to nasty winds today. Instead I did some bicep and tricep work, some squats, some lunges, and some leg lifts. Tomorrow morning I have to get up early for a special Family Fun Day for the preschoolers, but after that I think I'll go for a jog.

Edit: Persephone, I got that sweater at some random site called directforsale.com. I had been searching far and wide on the internet for anything similar to what she wore. I wish it was a bit bigger, but I think it looks cute.

Where has everyone gone? I didn't manage to get a walk in- too much to do- but did manage to get a few lunges and squats in and a little bit of armwork and well I guess that's something.

I'm still here! And still exercising too

Just finished doing my kickboxing DVD. This is after a very busy morning at the Family Fun Day for the preschoolers in my district. So I had a good workout today!

Hope everyone else is doing well!

In general, I'm doing great.

But today . . . .let's just say it's involved way too much drinking since about 11 a.m., followed by Mexican food and a big ass margarita, followed by a brief stint at work, and then off to the bars again.

Now I pass out and write today off as a fun day.

To the gym tomorrow!

Still unpacking. With just about an hour more tomorrow, I'm almost done. But, with all the up the stairs, down the stairs, repeat rediculous amount of times. At any rate, I'm getting sore, So, I'd call it all a workout.

So, I'm still here in a way. I'll have to figure out a place/time to do a workout in my new environment. Won't be easy...

I didn't get to work out Friday since we were on our way to Baltimore for the weekend, but I did walk around the Inner Harbor & all the way down to Fort McHenry & back on Saturday. Pedometer says I put in 13.89 miles! Holy Special Hell Preacher! My legs were a tad sore that night, but I slept good & felt great the next day. Put in another 5.76 miles on Sunday.

Going to the gym today.
