    Way to go everybody! pmjsmom your doing great! Already halfway to your goal. Your ahead of schedule. I need 9 more miles by Tuesday to make my halfway mark. Gonna be out and about tomorrow but probably doing some walking along the way. I might take my pedometer with me if I don't forget! lol

    I did the 4 fast miles from the Walk slim series. I like the fast paced workouts and that one's fast.

    Everybody have a great weekend! :flowerforyou:

    Sandara--I'm trying to get ahead in case things happen later the way they did last time!

    I actually did another 5 miles--the 3 mile WATP for Abs and the 2 mile Walk n' Tone--mainly because we're going to a baseball game tonight and i want a calorie cushion--just in case!

    I only worked 1.5 hours today so I had the time to get more walking in.

    My husband is being funny tonite! He says we should make a new workout video called "Shop away the pounds" guaranteed to make your wallet lighter.

    I asked him for some money so I could get to working on it but he wouldn't contribute! lol

    Sandara--I'll help with that video! LOL! (LOVE your kitty pics--I'll have to post a couple of mine later!)

    Megamom--Sure hope your knees are feeling better! Take it easy until they do.

    Plumsgrl--You're doing great!

    I've gotten 3 miles of the 4 Mile Super Challenge in so far. I hope to get in at least another 4 miles--we'll see.

    megamom, hope the knees are better- if they're still sore, keep resting up, till ya feel better:flowerforyou:

    WOW you all are doing GREAT! No miles probably for me today. I like to take Sunday's off...family time. I found a way to shake up my routine a little bit when I am outside walking. The subdivision I walk around is 1 mile around the whole thing (measured in my car) and around some parts of it there are cement road block...every time I come to one I do 10 push ups on it, and I do 5 on the next one and then I rotate. I go around 2 or 3 times so I end up getting 60 or more done. MY ARMS ARE SO SORE! But I LOVE it!

    Hope I can get more in this next week or I won't make my goal. But my goal for last month was 50 and so as long as I get past that then I will be HAPPY!

    I ended up not getting any more miles in yesterday. We had unexpected visitors and it just wasn't possible to get in another workout.:ohwell:

    I ate too much of the ice cream they brought with them, too. I am so glad today is a new day!

    Everybody is really doing great with their walking. I think Monday is our half-way point for this month's challenge and some of you are already ahead. I think I gotta get about 5 more in to end up on target for the end of the challenge.

    pmjsmom - I ate ice cream too yesterday (sugar-free) but still not calorie free. In fact we were on the road yesterday and I ate out all day long. It's probably the first time I have eaten evrey single one of my exercise calories. lol But this morning I'm down 2 lbs so I guess walking 4 miles (just regular walking) in the heat yesterday did the trick.

    Plumsgrl - it is so hot & steamy here, you and plum be careful walking outside.

    Megamom - give the legs time to heal, you don't want to do any long-term damage.

    Families-R-Forev - I've always taken days off, even during the week. My work schedule just doesn't allow me to walk every day and it's worked out just fine for me.

    Everybody have a relaxxin Sunday!

    My local Target had a fresh supply of WATP videos tonight. I got a 2 mile dvd The Big Burn and a 3 mile Walk off 10 lbs. They even had the kits with the firm band and the one with the waist band. Gonna hafta go back before they sell them all! My husband's gonna kill me! lol Not really he's been very supportive of all my walking just as long as he doesn't have to do it too! :laugh:

    ok so I woke up this early am and walked Plummy for a mile, then did 2 miles with Leslie and went back to bed!:noway:
    woke up around noon had a couple of donuts, eggs and ice coffee with almond milk, saw what my cal intake was and decided to do more walking, just finished my last walk total of 7.5 miles today, and ahead of schedule (amazing what guilt will do to the mind) :bigsmile:
    hope everyone had a great weekend:flowerforyou:

    Hi everyone! Hope you all had a good weekend. It's storming here, so nice to be able to get a walk in anyway. :smile:

    I did the WATP - 2 mile big burn. It's a very good 2 mile workout with the boosted walking intervals.

    I got absolutely NO miles in today (I only count walking for fitness, though--it's not that I sat all day! LOL!) My dds were blasting music and talking and I just could not get into a workout with them so loud. I have discovered that I am very much a creature of habit and do not like my schedule to be messed with!
