    Another good day!

    I rode the stationary bike for 60 minutes (my quads were feeling the burn!!). Then I did 45 minutes of Crunch: Candlelight Yoga. The yoga video is available on Netflix with the instant-play feature. It isn't a cardio-intensive yoga workout, but it focuses more on stretching and relaxing. I already feel a lot more stretched out in my lower back. I think I'll start using it regularly in the evenings.

    Someone please explain to me how I mkae the exercise ticker, for the life of me, I just cannot get it figured out!

    thank you so much! every one have a great day!

    Another hour in on the elliptical! 455 calories burned too, which is more than I've ever burnt in one hour before. :)

    And Connie, the website was kinda tricky to navigate (for me, anyway). I just kind of clicked around until I got to the point where you start selecting what your ticker looks like. You don't have to create a membership or anything so that's nice.
    Hopefully someone who knows the site better will be able to help. :smile:

    Well I joined the gym and had my first personal trainer session for an hour on Saturday which was a start. I'm in agony still so post-poned my second session until tomorrow but I walked for three hours on Sunday, 40 minutes yesterday, and I should hit 60 minutes today too. And then hopefully tonight I will fit in a 30 minute swim.

    My plan was to do 90 minutes a week, preferably in addition to my walking, but since I've never properly been a gym bunny before I guess my body's ability may have to take some time before it can match up to my mind's enthusiasm.

    Another 35 minutes done this morning! I doubt I'll be able to get more in today - I'll be at school or working from now until 10:00 tonight.

    How's everyone else doing!?

    I'm in! I really just started exploring the website and I've got a weight-loss goal of approximately 15 pounds by the end of July. I just signed up for a gym yesterday, and I'm pretty excited to start working out regularly again. I used to be a personal trainer, but have a hard time motivating myself to actually take advantage of all the knowledge and training I received. My goal is to work out at least 60 minutes every day for the rest of the month, or the equivalent of 1,320 minutes by the end. Good luck to everyone! Thanks for the motivation!

    Well I managed to get through my second personal trainer session and I am proud to report that I am currently able to move, unlike last time. So that was an extra hour work out on top of my 60 minutes walking yesterday.

    I'm having a break today before the boyfriend goes away for the weekend but seeing as he is out of the house for the first time we moved in three months ago, I am planning on having a bit of a detox and exercise fuelled couple of days, without him bringing home crisps and other evening snacks.

    Sounds like a fantastic idea!
    It's pretty easy to cook well for yourself once you get used to either reducing recipes or eating the same thing for a few days. My fiance is on a deployment and I'm going to have to readjust to cooking for two when he gets home! haha

    Haven't been posting to regularly, but I have been doing my exercising. been dealing with a whacked out sister who is trying to drive me batty. do I get extra exercise calories for that? So far for the month I have logged only 654 mins, but considering I've only exercised 9 out of 14 days, I don't think it's that bad, but still not what my goal was, so I'm going to up it a bit and still hit my goal, and in the process get rid of my jiggly middle!

    so it stands at 1800 - 654 = 1146 / 15 = 76 mins a day for the next 15 days.... i'm just making it harder on myself!
