Sisterhood HCP Week 2

I lost 60 pounds 2 years ago and one shoe size! I guess once all that fat isn't pushing on them they shrink with the rest of you. I thought it was weird too.

You lost a shoe size? I was thinking that it was a pregnancy thing but yeah, 60 extra pounds (which is what I have gained :grumble: ) might just be the culprit. Makes perfect sense...Maybe I'll be a size 8 again, shoe and pants

I'm a size 10 shoe and will probably never see a size 10 pant again...I'm jealous!

Hang in there Pepamint, it's only 30 minutes. Pick 8 of your favorite tunes and it'll be over before you know it!

its funny yesterday my mother decided to go outside for her walk (she usually walks outside but its been a weird ny winter with snow and ice) so i lent her my ipod (and which has made her decide to get one :bigsmile: ) and i put 64 walking songs on it....i used that when i walked and i did it 32 minutes i went to the park then the long way home but wasnt ready to go home ( i know shocked me too :huh: ) and just took the longest way possible home. unfortunetly i couldnt keep going because i got to get ready to go to school but i have never felt this way after a treadmill workout. dare i say i may do it again tomorrow morning and :noway: go earlier so i can try to go longer :huh: we shall see i promise to report (while i love the treamill with the tv to make the time go faster outside i was in fresh air and up and down hills it was actially a nice change :drinker:

Yay! I am glad you decided to take a walk outside. What time do you go to school or shall What time do you get up to take a walk? I love walking outside. I like it so much better than walking inside. When I am inside on a tredmil, I think to myself I can stop now I have done enough. When I am outside I am like you and could keep walking. We were in upstate NY before we moved here. The winters were horrible. I never walked outside in the winter.

I dont have a specific time i do excercise but i do relize that if i do it earlier in the day then there are no excuses (cause if its too late i will put it off or not do it usually im better lately like last wed i went on at 9 as a bonus day meaning my non excercise day) i need to be at the train no later then 2 and thats cutting it close its about a 45 minute ride to class which is at 3. so usually i try to go on the treadmill 11 it depends when i wake up and on school days im in class till about 9 straight so i like to take a little advantage and sleep late mon tues (the rest of the week i got to be at internship at 9 so thats why :bigsmile: ) i prefer the treadmill cause i have the tv and can pass the time watching a dvd and it flies but i do think the treadmill is broken despite my wonderful father trying his hardest to fix it (looks like my mother may get her wish for a new treadmill :laugh: ) So tomorrow i am making the commitment to go outside for my walk (cardio) and then :sick: weigh in . its strange i was in a lot of pain walking outside (lots of uphill and snow) but after a while it went away and i found myself not wanting to go home to just keep walking and see how much i could do...so unlike me :laugh: where are you living now? me i love nyc born and bred although tomorrow we are supposedly getting a blizzard so my walk/way home could be compromised but hopefully ill get up early enough for my walk wish me luck :drinker:

I played volleyball tonight... I had so much fun, but wasn't moving very well because I was so sore!!! Hopefully I'll be better tomorrow... I'm glad to be moving around enough to BE sore, but I was waddling like I haven't done since I was about 8 months pregnant... Great job pepamint on taking your walk!!! It makes it even easier to take your next one
