Do any of you have an idea for our mini for tomorrow? If no one posts one, I will try my best to think up a good one and will post later tonight after I get back from seafood buffet! lol

    How about running in place for 5-10 minutes. If you can't run, just walk? I think that would cover everyone.

    Heel raises are always good--you can do them standing on the floor, on a piece of wood or on a stair as long as you have something to hold onto. Rise to your toes slowly, hold it and go down slowly--great for your calves.

    I have to tell you all--I actually got a compliment on my calves from a pedicurist a while back. When she was massaging them she said I have very firm calves for someone my age, that usually they are soft and squishy, lol. Must be all the heel raises over the years. :)

    Done, just walked in place today. So tired, didn't get much sleep last night. Heel raises were fun and great idea.

    Ok, I felt like a person in the long line at the bathroom who had to go so bad, they could hardly hold it any more, BUT, I did my walking in place. A whole 5 minutes! lol

    Did 30 heel raises.

    My work here is done. lol

    That is totally awesome. What a wonderful compliment. Gee I wonder if I can apply heel raises to my neck some how and make it nice and tight? Good job issyfit.
