    Thanks everyone for the suggestions! I have a friend that loves the Walk to the hits... so I am going to get that plus I will check out the website! Great info!

    I stepped on the scale today to get an "official" weight... starting challenges on Thursday sooooo WOW that was not fun. I gained SO much weight over the holidays... now more determined than ever to make this the year I get my BMI into a normal range!

    I went to the park after dropping my grandson off at school. I managed 1.5 miles but honestly it was too cold to continue. I was not dressed for it and I rarely get cold.

    Good morning everyone!

    I am new to this group. I had an account a long time ago, fell off the wagon, fell into a very deep depression when my dad died unexpectedly, and comfort ate myself too much.

    I started walking with Leslie Sansone after Christmas since I am TERRIBLY out of shape. I am starting with one of her 1 mile videos until I can build myself up to her 2 mile ones. I ordered a couple of her DVD's to use when I buy a portable DVD player. I do her walks in the bedroom at home when I get home from work. My husband and I have also started walking outdoors a few times a week, when his back is up to it. He's a disable veteran with a very bad back after sustaining injuries in Iraq 10 years ago. Thank God he came home safely!

    Anyway...back to my January goals. :D

    I am setting myself a goal of 20 miles of Leslie Sansone walks.

    January 2nd: 1 mile Leslie Sansone walk :D

    January 4th: 1 mile Leslie Sansone walk

    2 miles down...18 to go!![/quote]

    Hi everyone, Had my ortho appt. today. I am waiting to have an mri scheduled. The r says I had a bakers cyst which is what the pop at Christmas was, and it drained into my torn meniscus, yup, got that too. Or so he thinks anyway. we will know more once the mri is done. I am allowed to still walk, no jogging or running and no more then 3 miles a day. So looks like I need to bring it down a bit. Not sure what my miles will be this month. Oh I also had my thyroid ultrasound done today, will hear the results in a few days.

    1/3-1/6

    12 miles with Leslie today
    20 Miles total with Leslie

    7 miles outside today
    11 miles total outside

    31 miles total- goal 125.

    Happy Walking!

    [Oh wow, what a pain I here, look on the bright side you can walk, it will be just a little slower for now and not as far. Maybe surgery and asll better for the nicer weather in a couple of months. Well wish to you.]

    I walked another mile on Wednesday. That puts me at three miles down, 17 to go. I didn't walk yesterday. I was exhausted when I came home from work. I ended up going to bed early and am going to walk tonight for sure.

    I know we are not supposed to let "life" take over our workouts but it has been brutal for me lately! Long days and not enough time. My workouts have been nonexistent and my eating has been terrible! Man some days it is easier to just give up. I am going to get my workout in before I do anything else! The housework and bills can wait! I have some fat to burn off!
