    princessf1, I was thinking the same thing about this being the best month, at least since my joining MFP, and this group about the same time.
    The number of walkers is so encouraging, as well as all of the miles walked. I love to read which DVDs are used (as you already know :laugh: ) and to watch everyone's personal miles continue to increase.


    Tuesday:
    4 miles walked: from the WAP Ultimate Collection - 4 Mile Super Challenge.

    Goal for September: 70
    So far: 65

    See you tomorrow :flowerforyou:

    Miles today - 2

    Miles so far this month - 30

    Walk Strong can be found on a 2009 copyright compilation DVD called Walk Away the Pounds Fat Burning Miles. There are 4 complete workouts on this DVD: Power Mile, Walk Strong, Walk & Jog and Walk & Kick.

    It is reviewed on collagevideo dot com with a video clip and on amazon dot com.

    Ok, you all are giving me the bug about the WATP Fat burning miles! I feel my fingers typing in collagevideo and adding to cart. LOL Love you all and this has been an awesome month. So much so that for the very first time since March I actually made my GOAL. Woo HOO!!! I contribute the success to my fellow September walkers and can't wait to walk with you again in OCT.

    CONGRATS TO all those who have already reached their goal and still walking! I will be here tomorrow but going to visit my granddaughter Friday for the weekend. I will start our Oct Thread this afternoon or tomorrow - ok???

    Keep pushing ladies, every mile walked this month is a success and something to be proud of.


    Today I did 3M Slm & Sleek - love that one!!

    GOAL - 45 MILES
    SO FAR - 45 MILES
    LEFT TO GO - 0!!

    I haven't done Fat Burning Miles DVD in quite awhile so I broke it out b/c of all the talk about it :-) Now the 2 mile Walk Strong IS heavy on the squats, but my older knees can not do that many squats, so I do some and some that are modified, or I just keep up with the weight training part. I struggle with my balance during the squats with the weights also. It is a challenge for me. The Power Mile is not really all that powerful to me anymore, but is good for me when combined with the challenging (to me) Walk Strong.

    Wednesday:
    3 miles walked: from the WAP Fat Burning Miles. did 1 mile: Power Mile and 2 miles: Walk Strong..

    Goal for September: 70
    So far: 68

    We are cruising to the end of September :heart:

    Have not keep up with my challenge this month is totally a disater for me.

    I will reset my goals in Oct.

    I have a problem too. I couldnt find the 4 miles walk and jog that I did everymorning from you tube. Now they deleted the video and i cant find it.

    It is not so easy to get the Leslie Sansone dvd in singapore, I have to get from amazon or ebay I guess.

    I will be back soon with the challenge.

    All the best everyone for your september challenge

    HI setang! Shake it off and join us in OCT. I will start the thread this afternoon. I have a MFP friend who lives in Ireland and has the same trouble - also try collagevideo. com - I ordered one from there yesterday and seems like i saw something about international shipping? Looking forward to walking with you!

    Happy Thursday!

    Yes, I did order the WATP Fat burning miles yesterday. ha! I have freely admitted this before, I am an addict! I pulled out on today that i haven't done in a while - 2 Mile Power walk with friends with 3lb weights. Worked up a great sweat in 30 minutes. i just love that little red headed lady Carol, she's in several and for some reason she always makes me chuckle a bit.

    GOAL - 45 MILES
    SO FAR - 47 MILES
    LEFT TO GO - 0000000!!!!

    Finish strong ladies!!

    Well I definitely won't make my goal but I will keep at it for the rest of the month and hope for better results in October. October is renewal for me, back up to 3 miles per day (hopefully) and totally committing to diligent month of calorie counting!:smile:

    Finish strong ladies!!

    Carol has been my hero for walking since I started back in April b/c she was (back when whenever that DVD was made that said that) well into her 50s and had lost over 60 pounds. I believe that she leads walks at her church now from what I recall from a bio on one of the DVDs (at least when that one was made). She makes me smile and chuckle also :heart: .

    Well, I'll tell you what, my thighs were still remembering those squats from yesterday :sick: lol. and My arms knew I used the weights yesterday too. Today I only had time for a quick one before the grands were being brought over so....

    Thursday:
    1 miles walked: from the WAP For Your Week. did 1 mile the Muscle Mile One.... and.... more weights for the arms, but no squats :laugh: .

    Goal for September: 70
    So far: 69

    See you tomorrow, have to finish... down to the wire..... :flowerforyou:
