    Happy Birthday Arizona! How special to have a birthday on Valentine's Day!


    Welcome to Izzy! Go to www.tickerfactory.com and make your ticker. Then copy & paste the code that says for BBoard into your signature. There's another site too but I can't remember the name right now. You'll see it mentioned on some of the other's tickers.

    I'm taking the day off just because I want to! :laugh:

    I hope everyone has a wonderful Valentine's day!

    Happy belated birthday AZ! Hope you painted the town red in celebration of you! :flowerforyou:

    I did 4 miles yesterday with the 4 Fast and Firm Miles dvd. I was supposed to go to the gym yesterday to do a strength workout, but just couldn't get back out the door once I got home and ate dinner. I've got 3 miles to do at "lunch" today with the girls and then I'll try to sneak in a strength workout tonight - hopefully the workout gods will be on my side and I'll be able to get that done, plus some of the packing for my trip later this week! I love travelling, but the prep work to get there is a killer!

    Wooohooo! Beautiful day here today so I did my walking outside at lunch. I'm glad I left some walking shoes at work. I did about 2.5 miles around the neighborhood but I'm only counting 2 to be sure I don't overestimate. Maybe I'll get in another outside walk tomorrow!

    Hump day tomorrow everyone! I hope you have a good one! :flowerforyou:

    Happy Wednesday, everyone!

    I've been getting in 2 miles before work this week.

    I'll be getting some strength training today as a good-sized shipment of plants and shrubs should be there when I get to work.

    Have a great day!

    Only 14 miles to go to meet my February goal! I thought about upping it and may do that but since I started doing 30 Day Shred 2-3 times per week I may keep my goal at 14. We'll see...

    I did my first mile outside today at work. It was a beautiful day! At home I walked 3 more miles with Leslie. I really like the 5 Mile Tone and Shape Up Video. You can choose any combo of the miles to walk. The sidewalks in MN are still snowy and slushy. Streets are dry but I can't walk on the streets my whole outside route. Can't wait until Spring! Happy Walking! Night-Night:yawn:

    I have been 'out of the groove' the past 2 weeks. I really hope to get back on track!

    This morning I jogged 54 minutes, for my total of 3.72 miles.

    Happy Friday Everyone! :flowerforyou:

    I forgot to post last night but I did 2 miles yesterday at lunch. My legs are really feeling it right now. Outside walking apparently uses different muscles than the inside walking!

    Hope you all have a wonderful day!

    GOOD MORNING WALKERS!! :flowerforyou:



    Beautiful, Gorgeous Day today & I have to go into work soon UGH!!
    Well I just finished a moderate walk of 3 miles. I had to try and walk the pain out of my upper legs.

    Sandra ---- Your Right about walking outside uses different mucles then doing the walks inside.

    Happy Walking everyone!!

    I did almost 3 miles yesterday--I'm getting there but not gonna stress if I don't make my goal.

    The order that was supposed to be in on Wednesday never arrived. We finally tracked it down and they say it will be here today around 1 so I am going in for the afternoon instead of the morning.
    Another order was delivered to the wrong store so I have had a couple of REALLY boring days at work. I do think we have the cleanest outside garden center in the state, though! I spent a LOT of time sweeping!

    I have been working on my jewelry and hope to have enough for a craft fair or two this summer.

    Have a great day, everyone! And a wonderful weekend, too!

    I'm taking the day off from walking. I had my iron infusion today and I feel fine but thought I'd give it at least a day to settle in. That's one reason why I tried to walk every day at lunch this week just in case I didn't feel up it after the infusion. I don't think it's going to be an issue though.

    Kathy, I bet sweeping burns lots of calories too! I hate slow days at work because they just drag by. Mine was pretty slow last week but I'll be filling in for someone on vacation next week so mine should be much better.

    Alice & Teresa your both going strong! WTG!

    Everybody have a great weekend and I hope you all are going to have nice weather like we are here in Georgia.

    Good Afternoon Walkers ! :flowerforyou:

    I don't know how I did it, I hope the scale isn't broken But after pigging out 3 nights in a row and gaining 2 pounds and now 2 days back on track I'm back down 2 pounds. I'm crossing my fingers the scale is right this time :bigsmile:

    I just finished walking 7.42 miles in 2 hours 36 minutes. . I was so exhausted I begged my husband to bath me & feed me ( NO GO) Wasn't going to happen (LOL). He just layed there and looked dumb :wink:

    Have A GREAT WEEKEND EVERYONE!!!!!!

    Did 4 miles with Leslie this morning and then started a big cleaning project in the basement. Tired now so resting to finish the cleaning project tomorrow. A snow storm is headed to MN so the signs of spring coming soon are going to disappear.:cry:

    Happy Saturday Everyone,

    Haven't posted in over a week, wow. Sorry about that. Alot on my mind lately I guess. I have been walking most days though and keeping up with my food diary. Scale hasn't moved so I must be doing the maintenance thing right.

    I really hope the weather forcast is wrong for more snow our way. I got a taste of spring here in Wisconsin this past week. Even paged through some veg. garden cataloges so I could decide what I want to plant this year.

    I took the dog for a nice long walk today then made the mistake of letting him in the door right away. His belly and feet were full of mud so in the tub both of us went. Yea, I stand in the tub. Its back breaking! Then had to mop the kitchen and vaccume. I think I put giving him a bath as "wrestling" for exercise last time...lol.

    Enjoy your weekend guys!

    Marie, I'm next door in Minnesota. My dog is old and has doggie dementia coming on. He knows not to leave the yard, or use to, but now has started wandering. The neighbor two doors down brought him home today. His invisible fence collar doesn't do so well when the snow is deep. I just put it on since a lot has melted. We are waiting for the storm too. We planned crock pot recipes for tonight and tomorrow while we tackle our basement store room and clean/sort/throw. It's a good inside project when the weather isn't nice. I've been walking to my DVD's and doing 30 Day Shred. I look forward to my outside neighborhood walks and going to the regional park trails, hiking up north again, and biking.

    Stay warm,
    Jenny
