    I'd try starting on Week 4 and if that's extremely difficult, then back up to Week 3. I'm sure you can do W4 though! Glad you're restarting it.

    last week: with some crazy cleaning i ended up with 482 minutes/1997 calories

    this week:
    monday: 3.5 mile run/309
    tuesday: walk 30/113
    wednesday: 3.1 mile run 30/273, clean 110/273
    total so far: 208 minutes/968 calories


    so sorry i've been MIA lately...i have less time in the summer to catch up than i do when i am working during the school year...seems counter-intuitive, but its true :) always cheering you all on even if i don't get on as often to tell you!!! :)

    Wow Andrea you came back strong!! I have been so busy I missed your 482 last week!! Awesome!! And it looks like you are on another roll this week!! Awesome!

    thank you!!! the ONLY way i got even close was counting cleaning out our old apartment...i put in some serious time de-slobbing the place :) but i think it is going to pay off and we will get the majority of our security deposit back which is a miracle with a dog who chews things up when he panics :)

    Time to update my week:

    Monday - 156 minutes (C25K, walk, yardwork)
    Tuesday - 120 minutes (yardwork)
    Wednesday 300 minutes (C25K, walk, yardwork)
    Thursday - 150 minutes (walk, yardwork)

    My yardwork is excessive this week as we decided to install an above-ground pool by ourselves. This week has been shoveling and raking a crushed stone layer, and then a sand layer for the base of the pool. Lots of shoveling and raking. I figure it counts as both cardio and strength! I did manage to get my dog out 3 times so far this week, and she is very appreciative. Tomorrow is Week 6/Day 3 of C25K - 25 minutes!!

    great work!!! yardwork is a crazy burn and tons of work :)

    Week 4

    Monday (7/25) - 62 minutes walking - 443 calories burned
    Tuesday (7/26) -
    Wednesday (7/27) -
    Thursday - (7/28) -
    Friday (7/29) -
    Saturday (7/30) - 240 minutes moving rooms and installing ceiling fan
    Sunday (7/31) -

    Total minutes - 302
    Calories burned - 443 plus whatever I burn on Saturday

    I'm still here!!! :wink:

    Last Monday's walk was great, but the days after were unbearable!!!

    I have been moving around the house, running up and down the stairs doing laundry, cleaning and running around after kids - but I didn't log it.

    I have been busy this weekend - moving my foster children out of my daughter's room and into their new room. Who knew kids could have sooooo much STUFF?!?!? Today I will spend time putting some things in a place and throwing away some things.

    This is great for me because I will have my basement back for ME!!! I am so excited that I am actually giddy!!!

    I'm on my way out for a walk before it gets too hot. I'll check back in later with my numbers for today.

    Have a great Sunday!!!!

    Week of 7/25
    Monday = Rest
    Tuesday = 50 minutes = 513 calories.
    Wednesday = 55 minutes = 551 calories
    Thursday = nothing... worked and then band practice
    Friday = Rest
    Saturday = 55 minutes running = 564 calories + 180 minutes walking/shopping = 461 calories
    Sunday = 55 minutes running = 515 calories

    Not sure how basically the same run gave me such a different burn each time, but I'm glad I had the HRM for those. Didn't count all the walking we did yesterday, but we shopped for 10 hours, so I counted 3. Good enough!

    I may still take a walk or swim today and I'll count it if I do. If not, this week I've done 395 minutes and burned 2604 calories!

    Thank the good Lord that the pool is now filling up! So thankful that it's done. Friday I messed up my foot as I switched shoes for my run and didn't insert my arch supports (I'm getting old). Taking tomorow off as it's still sore but hope to be back at it for Wednesday's run.
