    :flowerforyou: Hello peeps!:flowerforyou:

    I missed you guys last week. I see you all kept rocking out those workouts last week. I took a break last week. I still managed to work out 3 days and went to the gym 1 day for a total of 204 minutes. My calories off will be lower now because I reset my HRM to a much lower weight so I do not eat all my exercise calories.

    I have been struggling this month. Eating has been off the charts. But I am sort of maintaining. I am gearing up for April to be a better month weight wise.

    This week I am going for the 360 minutes and 3 days at they gym. With winter coming to an end, I am going to be shooting for 4 to 5 days at the gym M-F and Leslie Sansone DVD's for the weekends.

    Have a good week!!! :flowerforyou:

    Daily Inspiration for March 22, 2011
    Katie Jay, MSW

    Exercise.

    Perhaps you would prefer not to exercise. It takes time, it's hard, and you don't like to sweat. But even though you can think of a thousand excuses why you do not want to (or think you can't) exercise, you know in the long run it will make you feel better.

    At first, exercise can feel like torture, but if you stay vigilant you will find you become stronger and have more energy. Exercise also relieves stress. Working out your tensions with sweat helps to unburden your soul. And you just might find yourself feeling more cheerful. Prioritize exercise like you prioritize brushing your teeth, drinking water, or taking your medicine. For long-term weight loss success and maintenance, it is as essential.

    Action for the day: In your journal, make a list of activities you like to do that involve moving your body. These activities do not have to be formal exercise. Pick one activity and do it today.

    Mollie, the only activity I've done today is go to Sam's Club and take a nap...maybe, I consider it Yoga

    i am officially back!!! two weeks of nasty bacterial infection with upper respiratory that lead to a nasty cough that took forEVER to go away! anyway.

    technically, i could count all day as excercise; I taught elementary PE today and was on my feet for six hours. i won't count that though, heehee.

    so officially,

    Monday, 20 minutes biggest loser Kinect and 60 min run/walk intervals, 5 miles.
