    I am so sorry about my recent absence, there has been a lot going on here. Thank you for the nudge Alex!

    I have just spent a very enjoyable half an hour catching up with everyone's progress over the last week or so, you are all inspirational to me. I promise not to go missing without explanation again. xxx

    Good morning friends! I completed 4 miles this morning. I had to cut my walk short since my grandson was being dropped off earlier than usual today. Have a great day and walk,walk, walk.

    Hi I have been doing Leslie's dvds for a few years now, and I love them, every now and again I do something else, but I always come back to Leslie. At the moment I am doing 3 miles for 4 days and 4 miles one day, with a half an hour jog/walk in the afternoons, just to try and sift my holiday 4lb gain. I love her energy and all her walkers aren't super thin, just like us human :wink:

    Anyway I am glad more people are joining this group as it was quite for a while.:smile:

    AnnofB, you walked 17 days of 25 possible and made 53 miles, although you had a lot of commitments. That's terrific :happy:. In the end, showing up is what is important. If you show up, you will loose weight in the long run. That's inevitable.

    lidenalex,
    Thank you for the encouragement. :happy:

    today: 8 miles
    total to date: 180 miles

    3 more days with 0.6 miles per day and I've reached my goal. I am noticing that walking is slowly becoming a habit. Not the first mile, it is always difficult, but as soon as my legs fall into rhythm which happens after about 0.6 miles, they become self going , I just have to lean back and enjoy the ride :laugh:

    Alex, thank you for the encouragement. It sounds like your habit is slowly becoming embedded.

    PinkyPan1, the smell of summer rain always makes me smile and I don't care who sees me enjoying it. I'm happy to have found a soul sister. It is certainly not silly to hope for more, my vegetable patch needs it.

    Texasgardnr, thank you for your kind words, you are the most present and supportive moderator that I have come across.

    LouAnn, Wow, just wow. Your updates motivate and inspire, as soon as I am stronger I hope to emulate your consistency and love of walking.

    StarterGal, I haven't heard that song for years thank you, it's going around in my head now and making me happy. I must find it and put it on my ipod.

    zichab, I'm sure that you'll make the 60. Safe travelling and have a wonderful time with your new grand daughter. Oh, I looked further down and you zoomed past the 60, way to go!

    AnnofB, Thank you for the encouragement and for introducing me to Debbie Rocker, I'm on the lookout for a dvd of hers now. We do seem to be a determined bunch this month, the determination is infectious.

    Debrakhan, I agree, Leslie's videos are appealing to real women.


    I walked for 3.5 miles today in the glorious sunshine.



    Happy walking everyone :flowerforyou:

    90 in and more to mow tomorrow- Yeah!! See even chores become fun when we walk folks.

    I am determined to make the goal of 110 this month and like you Alex I have a plan of action.

    I feel as if everyone of you have been with me as I walk, or have nudged me when I didn't feel up to it.

    Let's keep it going the month is not over yet we are all in the home stretch.

    Good morning and Happy Friday everyone.:smile: I logged an additional 4.5 miles this morning. I just wanted to share that in the last week I have been thrilled to see 3 additional walkers in my neighborhood up and walking at 5:30. My NSV...One couple stopped and told me that they have sat and looked for me to go by each morning as they had their morning coffee and then decided that they too would start walking. This made my day.:happy:
