    keep up the great work everyone...one more week in october :)
  • This week has been dismal. Definitely not up to my goals last Sunday! Here goes:

    Monday: Walk 45
    Tuesday: Walk 35
    Wednesday: Walk 45
    Thursday: Walk 45
    Friday: Run 35, Walk 35
    Saturday: Walk 35
    Sunday: Run 47, Walk 25
    Total: 345

    Actually, not too bad. My gripe with how I did this week is that the vast majority of my "exercise" was walking. And I'm to the point now where walking is just not a challenge.

    So here's my game plan for this week: 360 minutes of exercise, which can include some easy stuff like walking. However, I'm laying down the law for at least 210 minutes of that to be moderate-intense. For me, this includes: hiking, jogging/running, 30DS, and NMTZ.

    So my tentative plan for the week starting 10/25 looks like this:
    Monday: 30DS for 25, Walk 25
    Tuesday: Run 25, Walk 25
    Wednesday: 30DS for 25, Walk 30
    Thursday: Walk 45
    Friday: Run 75, Walk 20
    Saturday: Hike 45
    Sunday: Run 50, Walk 20

    This plan should actually give me 245 minutes of moderate-intense exercise, so I'll go with it. We'll see how it goes!

    Hey all - I took last week off from just about everything. Just needed an "off" week... but I'm back now. (I did jog/walk a 5k last Saturday, though!) I'm having some hip pain, so I think I need to take it easy with the jogging, so I'm just going to set a goal of exercising 360 minutes this week. The house I'm house-sitting this week has a home gym that I was told I could use, so I may workout in there and do some walks around the neighborhood... we'll see.

    Tuesday- 30 min of Fire 30/310 calories

    Total:

    Really want to get some good numbers in this week. I'm trying so hard to get below 140 lbs by my birthday (11/25/10, Thanksgiving). I've got exactly 3 lbs to go to get there. Can I make it? I really hope so. So for the next few weeks I'm challenging myself to work a little harder than I have been doing. Also, gonna try to increase my veggies everyday and decrease my sugars. Wish me luck!

    Pushed it hard last night! Only worked out for 45 min but burned a ton of calories! Was considering to do more, but was short on time. That's ok though, shows that if you bust it out you can get a good calorie burn in a short amount of time.
