    No walking for me today. I woke up feeling terrible and could barely get off the couch until about 1:00. I'll try tomorrow depending on how I feel. I'll make up for it on Saturday again.

    The sweetie and I went to Land Park and walked around. That park is HUGE! Three miles for me today! Yay! The only bad part - there was a lot of dog doo that we had to walk around and dodge. Man, people really need to learn how to clean up after their animals. UGH! That's disrespectful to other people. I wouldn't mind going back there as the ponds are beautiful and I love all the ducks and squirrels, but those dog piles just make me not want to go back.

    Can't believe I'm almost 1/3 of the way through my challenge! Woot! If I can get 5 miles in today, I will be one happy camper. Then, I can go over 10 miles for the remaining 20 days and go over my goal! Whoohoo!

    Okay. So, I wasn't able to get FIVE miles in, BUT I got four miles in. Pretty good, considering last month, I'd average 2 miles a day.

    Hello, A bad day for walking as it has poured with rain all day and been blowing gale force winds so not sure how far i've walked but it has not been far :grumble: so will not bother logging it today. On the positive side I bought a rain hat so can now tackle the downpours and not end up quite so soggy :laugh:

    Hahah I really love being on the treadmill while watching TV. It really helps the time go by so much faster and makes things more enjoyable. You're lucky you have a treadmill, hun! I really wish I could afford one. :D Great job on almost 30 miles already! You're so inspiring! :D

    The sweetie and I did laps around the mall today. I love looking at the window displays while getting my walk on! heheh All the stores are gearing up for Christmas so they have really pretty displays. :) And I love imagining what I would look like in some of the clothes I see on the mannequins. heheh Not that I'll ever be as small as a mannequin (most people shouldn't even aim to be that tiny). But all my life I've had no "style" to speak of because I've been big my entire life (and they just don't make very stylish clothes for people my size - not unless you want to pay an arm and a leg for them). I'm really looking forward to getting down to a "normal" size for the first time in my life and actually having the option of dressing to suit my personality, instead of just wearing what I can find that fits me. So checking out the cute fashions in the window displays gives me good ideas of the types of clothes that might fit my personality and that I would be comfortable in.

    Anyway - I did 3 miles doing laps at the mall and then came home and took a walk around my neighborhood for another mile. So 4 miles total for me today.

    I've already done 20 miles and I'm only 8 days into this! I'm so proud of myself! :D Not to shabby for a 322 lb woman! heheh! :D

    thanks for the compliment...i got another 5 miles in tonight doing running and walking on the treadmill...watched biggest loser...was actually yelling at the tv in the end....good thing i moved the treadmill to my bedroom upstairs so my hubby couldnt hear me lol....since i moved it upstairs in our room i have been using it soooo much more often...i definitely use it every tues night when i watch biggest loser after putting the kids to bed....and i try to jump on at least one other day during the week if possible...but with my 2 nights of running after work outside and my thurs night at the gym and my saturday am class at the gym i get all the workouts i need in....thank heavens for the schedule i have established and my family and work for helping me stick to it...i have been taking walks during my lunch break these last 2 weeks and i really think it has helped boost my losses and metabolism...it's keeping me motivated that is for sure...i love seeing great burns recorded especially now that i am addicted to my new HRM...had it just over a month and kick myself for not getting this amazing tool before now....if you can 7splurge and spend $100 on yourself i highly recommend the polar FT7.....
    keep on moving....

    Missed my miles yesterday. Work crises kept me on the computer most of the night. I'm going to try to pick up an extra one at lunch, but we'll see how it goes :)
