    Got 4 miles in today! (WATP Express 4 Mile Super Challenge) = 6 miles so far this week/14 miles so far this month

    I love this one Scoobees - my husband calls it 80's Leslie - LOL - I don't know, must be the hairdo.

    That was hilarious! :laugh: I have a fewer older ones that fit that bill also!

    3 miles today, I did Burn Body Fat & Sculpt Your Arms.
    July total = 17 miles

    Gotta do something different tomorrow though; I could feel myself losing a little enthusiasm tonight.
    Great job everyone!!!
  • I'm glad I found this group!! I just started the Leslie Sansone Walk away the Pounds Ultimate Collection. It was $9 at Target this week. I've done 10 miles already this week, so hopefully I can log 40 miles this month. I do my walking after work. I wish I could do a few miles in the morning before work but my mattress holds me hostage.

    Good luck all!!!

    Hey all, 3 miles done yesterday = 15 miles so far.

    Thanks for all knee advice. It's a bit better. I realised it coincided with me running out of glucosamine supplements so I started them again yesterday. Haven't braved any jillian yet will stick to Leslie for now. Am going away to my parents for a week on Monday, am planning to introduce my mum & sister to Walking at Home too. There may be some new recruits next week :) x

    I've been feeling a bit yucky :sick: the last couple days and missed my workouts...today I managed to at least get in 30 min on the elliptical.

    Have a great weekend everyone!! :flowerforyou:

    I started walking with Leslie in April of this year and MFP very recently. I would love to join in the challenge :flowerforyou: . As I recorded my miles today I noticed that it was my 100th walk with Leslie. Now that turned out to be a good day to find this group :heart: .

    I am 61 years old and my goal is to be fit and not become frail as I age. I have lost 8.8 pounds since I have started 'walking indoors' with the DVDs which includes the 2 pounds since joining MFP. I feel like I am getting stronger and my endurance is improving.

    My # of challenge miles for the rest of the month will be 25 or more miles.

    Today I did 4 miles (WATP Express 4 Mile Super Challenge).
    Thank you!

    Good Morning! Welcome new walkers and great job this week everybody!

    I don't usually work out on Sundays but had a much needed rest day on the couch yesterday. It was nice, watched movies and relaxed for a change!

    Felt stiff this morning so did 2 miles classic walk with the weight belt. Headed to the lake now for some bonus burn on the paddle boat!

    GOAL - 40 Miles
    So Far - 15 Miles
    Left to go - 25 Miles

    Have a great day and a super week!

    Goal: 30 Mi
    So far: 4

    Gotta catch up! My 8 week old has not gone to sleep easily in the evening like he was before, and is therefore cutting in on my exercise time. Maybe I should just hold him while I do the video. :)

    This afternoon I did the 5 mile Fat Burning Walk (WAH). I loved the 2 minutes boosted walk at the end of each mile. However, the last two miles were giving me a run for my money lol. Good work out for me today.

    (new) Goal - 35 Miles for the rest of July.
    So far - 16 miles

    Welcome hilly215, I just discovered this group also. samfordbelle, enjoy that sweet little one :heart:

    Thanks texasgardnr! And way to go on this month's mileage! I'm also loving her boosted walks...I was a little bummed that it was just too hot last night to do a workout...even a small one...So I'll just have to step it up tonight after the rain comes through and cuts the temp (and humidity) in half... :laugh:

    Hi everyone! I just joined this group even though we are halfway through the month. I just discovered Leslie's DVDs and I love them! I'm glad I found another group of people who agree. I try and do 2 miles a day, my goal is to walk 20 miles, through the rest of July.

    I'm sad I'm finding this group so late in July, but I'm looking forward to next month!

    I bought the WYBF dvd at least two years ago, and finally dusted it off this week. I did mile one yesterday and it was hard, but I made it. Then this morning, I did it again and it was easier and felt great. Tonight, I got bored, so I did it AGAIN and started into mile two. It's intense, but I am loving it!

    So hi everyone!

    Welcome Michelle. Let me/ us know how the walk belt works out. I do not have that DVD or walk booster.
    Don't be sad, reesa722. Just jump right in today and tailor your goal for the remainder of the month. I have only been here about a week. So I'm a newbie also.

    Night night every one, only it will soon be good morning for you Michelle.

    Good evening everyone. This afternoon I walked 3 miles using the WAP Fat Burning DVD: Power Mile (1 mile) and Walk Strong (2 miles). I chose these work outs because they included strength training. I need to start paying attention to strength training more often now. Earlier this week I also used Debbie Rocker's Walk, Sculpt and Tone DVD which uses weights.

    princessf1, Good for you for doing the Just Walk 5 Miles + Stretch today. I borrowed that one from the library the other week and really liked it. Loved that stretch.

    mish1969, I am glad that you were pleased with your new walk DVD using the walk belt.

    Goal - 35 Miles for the rest of July.
    So far - 29 miles
