    I feel kind of guilty that I was too busy to workout yesterday :( but I did 20 minutes on the stairstepper today, 3 sets of leg lifts, 3 sets of crunches and 100 jumping jacks!
    Does anyone know how to record jumping jacks on the log...nothing turned up when I typed it in.
    Thanks and happy weekend!!

    I can't exercise every day but it would be good to join a group. I have plates in my ankle and can only exercise every other day otherwise I struggle to work. I love running and ran for 30 minutes today.

    My husband works for the church and my son is 20 months old so inbetween working and sorting everything out. I will endeavour to do something every other day even if I can't get to the gym

    So I had planned to take a rest today but I just couldn't do it!! LOL!! :tongue:

    I just finished up the Leslie Sansone brisk walk away the pounds video! Not nearly as intense as the tread mill or my step classes but I just felt the need to do something active! I still want to fit in the pilates video sometime today! Hopefully I can make that happen!

    Keep strong buddies & get movin! :drinker:

    That's awesome! You know you are doing something right when you can't NOT be active! I feel sooo tired today but I'm going to make myself get on the stairstepper right now, and log some jumping jacks/jumping rope...thanks for that!

    Good job everyone!! I didn't work out today, I needed a rest (or so I told myself!)
    I'll definitely be back at it tomorrow, and I just picked up a couple more good suggestions thanks to you all.
    Happy Monday!:laugh:

    ok, yesterday i did 20 minutes cardio ( including jumping jacks!!) and then did 50 stomach crunches and 50 pilates crunches ( really need to find out what those are called, lol) and im pretty proud. not much i know, to those of you who ROCK!! but im trying remember here, im like 100 lbs overweight! So that was pretty darn good I thought!
    Today Im fighting a UTI, ugh...... but Im going to try and get some exercise in. Maybe my body is trying to get rid of all the yuckies in it. that would be good.
    Love, Jaelle

    Ugh, those are no fun, I know. The best thing you can do is drink a TON of water. Not only will it help with the UTI but you should drink lots of water anyway, it will make you feel fuller and not have so many cravings.

    I tried the dancing around my house thing today and that was fun. Its -19 here so I really don't feel like getting out in the cold and going to class! I also did 100 jumping jacks and some crunches.
