It's a good evening as I find there is no one to yell at, looks like everyone is doing something to keep up their pledge to take care of themselves.
Sara - I'm going to try and catch up with your work out program starting Monday, our youngest son is going to be gone for about a month so I can dedicate myself to working out instead of helping him get ready to leave. I'm with you on the working out but not watching what I eat, I have a little bit but not like I should, and of course it shows. I use to love the stair stepper, did it everyday for 1/2 hour or more, now I agree, it's not my favorite, guess if I did it more I would be in better shape for it and therefore like it more.
Kaybo - Hope Kendie is doing good. I think perhaps you need to go in for an evaluation as I'm concerned about you thinking 5 a.m. is a good time to work out, I think it's a good time to sleep. Good luck with the plan, my not fitting into my clothes was a good motivator for me as well.
Pat - I'm not even going to try and catch up with you on your workouts. Bet you gave your wife an extra big hug for rescuing you!
Soundy - Your walk through the school sure makes for an interesting time and isn't that what it's all about when getting exercise, making it interesting.
Jan - You get the Gold Star for the week! I know what you mean about the weather making it hard to workout at the gym. I promised myself I wouldn't leave the gym tell April but I ended up walking the dogs 3 days this week because the weather was so nice.
Phy - Sorry to hear about the job loss, can't remember who said it but I agree with the idea that something better will come along. I sometimes wish I would get laid off so I could find something new, but also glad I don't because of the economy and my age of course. I love to talk to people and considering the medical issues I've thought about working with the home bound but I don't have the medical background. Glad you got to take some walks with the dogs, comfort food is good but so our walks with the ones you love.
Lori - Don't worry about not doing the in gym workout or the official I'm going on a walk deal, it's amazing how much exercise one gets just doing the daily things. When the little ones are older you will be able to join the ranks of the scheduled ones, until then, enjoy the kids.
Keri - How was the Marathon, remember, one marathon equals a weeks worth of workouts so your ok.
Cindy - Thanks Cindy, yes I'm feeling better, I can read the posts now. I've pretty much had a headache since my doctor visit and my dilated eye is still red and hurting more than it did, part my fault, stayed up to late last night. A few posts back you mentioned that those lurking around the thread should come join us and I totally agree.
Hi there fellow AN posters, please come join us in our quest to walk, run or something as Keri said when this thread started, tell us what you've done, what you would like to do, give us new ideas for making exercising fun, tell us how it has made things better or tell us how it created issues for you. Today is the first day of Spring so it's a good time to start something new that can blossom into something grand! Jill
