I am glad to see that we all did well last week! This challenge is really heating up!!

I didn't do so great for exercise today, but I did go on a walk with the family. I think though I will count today as a rest day!

Good luck this week ladies!! :happy:

    For those that run or walk for exercise, have you heard of the app RunKeeper? I love it!! It's a free app that keeps track of your distance, time, etc. I like it because it uses GPS to tell me how far I have walked.

    Check it out!

    Checking in. Yesterday I did 2.5 miles on the treadmill and 15 minutes of vigorous weight training. My arms and abs hurt this morning. :-)

    Will have to check out that app.

    Did 10 minutes of push-ups, crunches and knee lifts. Did 15 minutes on the elliptical. And another 20 minute walk at work. Not great, but it was at least something. Sigh!

    smsinger~ Something is always better then NOTHING! :)

    I am still sore from yesterday, but already today I went for a 1.5 mile walk with my kids. I plan to walk another 2 miles tonight as long as the weather permits. Tomorrow it's back to the workout videos... thinking of starting with the biggest loser.

    Took it easy today. I did walk over a mile during work today according to my new health tracker watch. Plus I lifted and moved medical equipment all day at work. So I decided to skip the formal workout tonight. I am worn out and get to do it all again for the next 4 days. We are issuing a whole hospital's worth of equipment in 5 days. Ugh!

    Yesterday was a rest day for me and today might be too, which would put me over for the week, but I am really sore! I wonder how do the biggest losers deal with the soreness? Have they ever said?

    Mind over matter, I pushed through being sore and walked a mile with my kids, then came home and did a workout video. Yay! ... I feel I am going to be VERY sore tomorrow.

    Great Job!!! I have always heard that you have to work through the sore feeling, Icy hot is my new best friend since I started running!

    Slacked again yesterday. But did end up walking a mile and half at work. Ugh! But today I leave for Boy Scout Adult Leader Outdoor training. So I will be camping, hiking, walking and etc. all weekend. So that should burn some serious calories. Good thing since weigh-in is on monday. :-) You ladies have a great weekend!! Will check in Sunday night or Monday morning.
