    I just joined the group too! I recently started doing Leslie Sansone workouts on YouTube, and I got hooked.

    Yesterday (August 19) I did the 5 Mile Fat Burning Walk, and I loved it! 70 minutes long, wow!

    Hi Rising and welcome! The 5 Mile Fat Burning Walk is one of my favs! Gotta love the 12 minute miles!

    Today I did 4 Fast Miles early in the morning and I just finished the "Start Walking At Home" 2 mile walk.

    I did weights this evening, but I added the 1 Mile Express workout (15 minutes) from YouTube.

    Hi! I learned about Leslie Sansone years ago. A friend used it to lose weight. When my doctor suggested that I control my weight, I started working out to her. I was doing well until I had to have surgery. I lost at least 32 lbs working out to her and Shawn T. I alternated them. Him in the morning, her in the evening. Now I started back and trying to find my groove. I have done 17 miles so far this month. I decided to see if I can do 30 miles in August. I have 13 miles to go.

    Tonight I did Just Walk! Leslie Sansone: Ultimate 5 Day Walk Plan (Monday - 3 Miles) and 0.25 mile walk during work break. This Just Walk! DVD is intense. She builds you up and then slows you down and builds you up again. I normally do the Thursday - 2 Miles but decide to see if I could make it through the 3 Miles. "Sweat-fest" is a good way to describe this one for me.

    I am so ready for tomorrow! :happy:

    I didn't want to work out today at all, I am so tired and grumpy and had a bad day. But I ordered some Leslie Sansone DVDs that just arrived the other day, and they were sitting there calling my name. I made myself do a 35 minute walk (2 miles), then figured I have done this much, why not add one more? So today I did 55 minutes of walking, thanks to my new Leslie Sansone DVDs! :wink:

    Well done, RisingAboveIt. Nothing like a new LS DVD to inspire us :smile:

    Hey everybody! I'm so excited! I just finished a personal 10 Day 4 Fast Mile Challenge for the first time yesterday. Combined with eating healthy (no treat meals during this time - just some small treats here and there) I'm happy to report that I have lost a total of 4.75 inches and 3.5 lbs! That does not sounds like much, but I'm pretty fit and I'm a normal weight so losing that much in 10 days makes me very happy.

    I should also note that I did do other workouts from other videos once in a while as well depending on how I felt. Also with the intense workouts I ate more.

    I'm doing a low intensity 2 mile walk later (Walk This Way) and that's it for the day!

    I was exhausted and ready to collapse yesterday, but I looked up a short, 15-minute Leslie Sansone workout on YouTube and did that. I know I wouldn't have worked out at all if I didn't have a workout like that fall back on.
  • This morning I walked to the ultimate 5 day walk plan... A few minutes into the workout, my daughter walked in (5y), immediately I thought, "Awww, my baby girl is going to "walk" with me today!!!" Instead, she sat on the couch and watched me LOL!!! Well, at least she was there as motivation when I wanted to quit!!!
  • I will be starting a walk video this evening. Im excited! Have several I would like to purchase. I am new at walking so I will start at a mile and work my way up. Wish me luck!

    After skipping a workout on Tuesday (just an insanely busy day), I made up for it somewhat by doing the Tuesday walk from Ultimate 5 Day Walk Plan: 65 minutes! Felt great and helped relieve some stress :happy:

    Ha ha, my stepkids do that all the time! They sit down all nice and comfy and yell out commentary about my workout.
  • Did my first video from Sansone just now after work. It was only a 15 min mile but it's a start. I did a video yesterday by someone else and that was 3 miles in 45 min. So Im sure I could have done more today if I wasnt so sore already. One day at a time!

    A 15 minute mile is great! Getting started is something to be proud of.
  • I did the Ultimate 5 day Walk Plan -3 miles using 1 pound ankle weights and 1 pound hand weights on mile 1. Miles 2 and 3 just the 1 pound hand weights.

    Thank you!!!!
  • Walked a 14 min. mile plus warm up this morning. Think I will do a couple more after work starting with mile 2 of the 5 day slim down .. What can I say im getting addicted!!!!
  • Today is my day of rest as are Wednesday', so wont be walking today. However I walked 2 miles plus yesterday. I think when I walk tomorrow I am going to try the 3rd mile on my video think its a power walk. One of these days I will build endurance and be able to do 3 miles straight. These workouts make me sweat, and feel great even when I am exhausted they give me energy to get through the rest of my day.

    Yesterday I used the option to create your own workout on the Ultimate 5 Day Walk Plan. I did 3 miles and then the legs toning option.
  • I did the 3 mile Super Calorie burn. I sweat to death and didnt think I would make it but I did!!!!
  • Today I did walk your belly flat 3 miles!
  • Today I did 3 miles from 5 mega miles (the first three)

    I had intentions of doing all 5 miles but the 2nd miles with the band was kicking my butt! :)

    I am going to try to do the other two miles when I get home today!

    I ussually do the 1 mile walk a few times a day. Still at he beginning of my weight loss journey so it still kicks my butt ;-). Today I was using a hrm for the first time and found I was burning about 533 calories an hour, or 160 calories in 18 minutes on the video I use on youtube. So far it is my main source of exercise and has been working very well :-)
  • Today was stressful. I had to take my son for an EEG, but thank God all is well and I will get.my 3 miles in tonight. I'm doing Leslie's. Ultimate 5 day walk plan.
  • Today is an amazing day & Im finally on track thx to u guys. I just finished Leslie's 3 mile slim & sleek walk on you tube. Thx for letting.me know that the you tube option is available for some of Leslie's workouts. This makes her really portable for me. The workout itself was good & it has me sweating & feeling it in all my muscles. Thx again. Until next time good day:-)

    Is your son doing okay? You mentioned going for an EEG.

    I love searching YouTube to find Leslie Sansone workouts I haven't tried yet! I don't think I've done the Slim & Sleek yet. I will have to find it!
  • Every thing went well with my son's EEG. :-) The Dr. did say that he has a slight case of high functiong Autism which I have known for quite some time now. It's just nice to finally have the diagnosis to back me up. I work tonight so I will be walking there.
