    Wow! This was a great idea, it really motivated me! I did eight miles this past week and lost 2.5 pounds! Prior to the exercise I was only loosing a pound or pound and a half. I'm going to try 2 miles per day five days and 1 mile a day on the weekends and see how it goes! I was using Leslie Sansone walking dvd's--love it!

    Walked about 3 miles again today. Went shopping for clothes as celebration. Unfortunately....the sizes I wanted to fit wouldn't.....so, I'll just have to keep walking, won't I?!

    Thurs - walked 1.8 miles
    fri - walked 1.8 miles
    sat - walked 2 miles
    sun - fell and hurt myself :(
    mon - still sore from yesterday.
    tues - only did about half a mile.
    wed- walked about 2 miles? - was shopping with my gran all day

    Well this week hasn't been to good, as my kids left milk on the floor from their breakfast and i slid on it and hurt my hip, leg, ankle and arm, and so that slowed me up somewhat :s.
    But on the plus side i did get in extra crunches last night to try and make up for it.Hasn't helped that its been a down pour the past few days up here.

    Next week will hopefully be better, now i am under the 12 stone mark i think i have a bit more confidence

    I use the leslie sansone walk workout. I do several a day 3, 1, 3 session on my cardio only days. Its fun and doesn't wear me out. She is awesome.

    I like to walk at least 100 miles a month. Things have been crazy lately so I have had to reduce it.

    Our current challenge is awesome!! Keep up the great work everyone
