    I did Les Mills Ultimate warrior workout 60mins!!! I thought I was going to quit on this but I pushed and forced myself to complete this workout. I had to do a lot of shouting lol.

    I've lost my mojo a bit today. I walked the dog and did my workout, but without my normal enthusiasm and energy. It was a chore not something I enjoyed. Im taking a rest day tomorrow. I will still walk the dog as he needs it, but no workout. Might just take the kids for a swim.

    walked the dog but taking a rest day from everything else. If we go swimming tonight I might do some laps, but probably not :)

    I walk about 45-50 each day - brisk walk pushing a chariot.
    I didn't miss my walk yesterday even though it snowed a lot and was still snowing, and the sidewalks weren't cleaned :)

    I took a rest day yesterday and just walked the dog. This mornings workout was the best I've had all week. If your feeling tired or working out is getting harder, it might be your bodies way of saying "hey, give me a break".

    Hiked the Makapu'u lighthouse trail up and down for an hour, almost 3 miles round trip from where we parked, with over 500 ft of elevation change. HRM said I burned over 900 kcals! Will try to post pics later.


    This was the first part of the hike with great views of Oahu's South Shore

    The trail was paved, so a good choice for a rainy day

    Sometimes you can see humpback whales from this hike, but there were too many whitecaps today to make them easy to find

    We got hit by rain when we were nearing the top, but here are some previous hike's pics from the top: gorgeous views of the Windward Shore

    On the way back down, so tired, and can barely see my car (we parked the furthest away from the trailhead, naturally)

    And that was my hike!

    No exercise yet today, I just had an IUD put in for the first time yesterday and wasn't prepared for all the cramping. Feeling better, but think I will hold off one more day.

    Brrrrrrr.... now THAT is dedication!

    I'm still walking. Not a lot, but I'm getting in my 4,000 steps a day, even if I have to pace the short hallway in my house at 11 p.m. to do it.

    Haven't posted in a few days, but got moving today with a vengeance!
    Did Hip Hop Abs "Fat Burning Cardio" AND "Cardio Groove", and then 30 minutes of a stretching DVD.
    (I had to make up for all those off days... and ice cream :blushing: )

    I have done 2 walks and zero motivation to do 30ds, but if I don't do it I will regret missing a day, but if I do do it I won't give 100% what a dilemma!

    Demilade - I would say just go ahead and do the 30DS, even at 50 or 70% effort you're still getting *something* in, and chances are your endorphins will kick in halfway through and you'll increase your effort by the end. We're rooting for you!
