    Good evening everyone,

    No I haven't bought any new ones lately, worldofme.

    princessf1, Never tried that DVD, but it sounds like a good one :-)

    Way to go AmpKat, isn't it too cool when you think that it will be plenty difficult and then you do it!!!!

    Welcome :flowerforyou: hisakoyo, so happy that you made a goal and are jumping right in here. I am so blessed to have discovered MFP and it has made all the difference in how I am eating now. Well, at least most of the time :glasses:


    Monday:
    5 Miles today: Walk It Off & Tone It Up. (I borrowed this one from the library to check out. It uses lots of stretchy band work through out)

    Goal for August: 70
    So far: 42

    Good night :yawn: ,

    Which one are you referring to? I have a new one that's a 4 Mile power walk with power surges of high intensity moves. i thought I would love it but I don't - my knees can't handle the jumping jacks and scissor kick things. LOL

    Now, I do have an older one of intervals and I love that one - it uses the stretchie band and it about 2 miles with intervals.

    Texasgardnr - I love that 5 mile Walk it off and tone it up! That is a great one and it goes by fast to me.

    I did Walk your belly flat 3 miler today - I love that one, have had it for awhile and never get tired of it.

    GOAL - 40 MILES
    SO FAR - 25 MILES
    LEFT TO GO! - 15 MILES

    I am pushing hard to make my goal this month for once! HA!

    GO LEGS GO!!

    Keep up the great work everyone!!!

    princessf1, I was excited about the new one being a 4 mile power walk with options until I read on either collagevideo.com or Amazon.com that the moves were high intensity with jumping jacks and other hi impact moves. I was almost deciding not to get it b/c of my knees also. Now I know I won't :cry: .

    Tuesday:
    4 Miles today: Walk Slim 4 Fast Miles. Lots of boosted walking.

    Goal for August: 70
    So far: 46

    Good night :yawn:

    Good morning all,
    I had to get my miles in early as I have the grandchildren for two, maybe three days.

    Wednesday:
    3 Miles today: Walk Slim 3 Fast Miles.

    Harder doing this many miles first thing in the morning before eating anything. Usually I only do one mile this early if I feel the need to get an extra something to get me moving, and that works out well.

    Goal for August: 70
    So far: 49

    Have a lovely day everyone :flowerforyou: .
