Five days left in April?? Yikes I'm not going to meet either of my goals but I'll just continue on into May and increase the amount. Stressful month and time got away from me with being sick, distracted by work and family and too many things going on in the evenings. Excuses Excuses!
Moving forward into May and the exercise will be more consistent!

Morning ladies, I did no walking yesterday. I helped my husband move furniture into a new office, and did the Crunch lower body workout.
I need a kick in the pants now. Must get back on the track! Pouring rain today. :<(0 -
Good Afternoon!
I've been out of kilt for days now. The whole weekend I took off and Friday Nothing. So It was getting back up on a horse or a bike after being gone from it for so long. It was exhausting! The sun was baking out there 9 am in the morning so by the time I made it back at 11 am I was dieing.
Walked around the Pompano Park track 2 miles instead of walking to mall, It was shaded in parts
. Much cooler.
Total miles walked today 6.18
I am so close to making my walking goal, I hope I don't get side tracked :indifferent:
Have a Great day you all :happy:0 -
Nice walk Teresa! Rainy and gray here today with blustery winds. Went to the dentist after work for teeth cleaning and now am catching up on paperwork, etc. Very tired and throat still sore with cough. Not strep though... Zumba was a great workout last night but I'm taking the night off tonight. I know it may rejuvenate me to walk with Leslie but I just can't do it today. Tomorrow I will work extra hard at Zumba to burn those calories. Hopefully by the weekend I'll feel better and the sun will be shining. Gardening and biking are calling my name...
Have a nice evening!

What was I thinking? I must be punishing myself for slacking so long. I did the 3-mile boot camp and now I"m pooped! Teresa I don't know how you walk in the heat and your doing awesome with your mileage and your strength training.
I think I'm going to take May as my month to get back to a good routine with my walking. Every time I try to add in other stuff I start slacking. Looks like I would learn to stick with what works for me. I'm still going to try and do some weights not log them. That time will just be a bonus for me.
Alice I could use a kick too!

Hello Good Morning!
Its 87 degree's out soon to be 90 to 92 degree's later the weather man said. So I went out a little earlier then usual and got my 6.27 miles in. Later I will do my 30 minutes of weight lifting which matches my goal for the month. BUT! I still have 8 more miles to get my walking in for the month.
My new walking path is going to be around the park 2 miles instead of walking to the mall in the dead of heat & no shade tree's. I just don't care for the traffic of walkers on the Park path. But I'll get used to it :blushing:
Everyone have a blessed day!
Time for lunch..... Happy walking everyone!0 -

Zumba felt good tonight and we really moved about the room. The gym is so hot that they put 4 fans, one in each corner. Snowflakes fell off and on today and it's cold out. I can't believe this weather. We are going to go straight into summer without a spring up here.
I hope the weather this weekend warrants getting my bike out and ready to ride. I need a new form of exercise to change up my routine. My knees and thumb joints are stiff and sore so I'm starting acupuncture next week. I use to go several years back for my arthritis in my hands and it worked a miracle for the pain. Hopefully it helps again.
Homeward stretch to the weekend so hope you are all having a nice week!0 -
Good Morning, everyone!
Haven't posted in a couple of days but I am still here and still trying to get back on track. Easter wasn't too bad foodwise but those Lindt Chocolate bunnies were too great a temptation! They are gone now so no more chocolate in the house!
I am trying new workouts most mornings still and doing lots of walking and lifting at work so it is really just the foods I need to get back on track with. Got my food for the day planned so I think today is good! I'll worry about tomorrow when it gets here!
I'm glad you all had nice holidays. I did, too.
The weather here is still colder than normal (38 this AM) but I'm still hoping for some spring weather.0 -
Hello Fellow Walkers, Good Morning!
Treadmill today 3 miles, Im at 105.2 miles 5 short of my goal. I should be able to make it tomorrow if the weather is good.
I also did 30 minutes of weights lifting this morning, But I didn't bother putting it on my ticker since I met that goal already.
Have a Great Day!!!0 -
Hi everyone,
I just started using this web site about a month ago and so far I think that it's pretty awesome. I have been using walking as my main form of exercise along with using my Total Gym. The last time I was able to walk this week was on Monday and it was for 30 minutes. The last two days I haven't been able to do so due the weather. So tonight and the rest of the week we're supposed to have nice weather and I'm planning on walking for at least an hour. I'll keep you posted!

Welcome to the group Annie!
I've been slacking again the last couple of days. Sometimes things just don't work out as you plan but I'm learning to live with it!
I have another flea market trip planned this weekend so I'll be doing lots of walking Saturday. My husband is practicing up for a golf tournament with his coworkers so I have some time to spend with my teenagers. They like the flea markets as much as I do. I never buy very much I just love looking and it is good exercise too. And I have found some good bargains along the way.
Everyone say a prayer for all those hit with the storms and tornadoes. Fortunately my area fared well and there is very little damage here.0 -
Welcome Lisa!:flowerforyou:
Waiting for nice weather in Minnesota to walk outside more consistently. :ohwell:
I did 5 miles with Leslie Sansone 5 mile Tone and Shape Up DVD tonight. It felt so good to move and sweat even if it was in front of the TV. I did well with my eating today and feel good about that. Work is going to get rough in the next few weeks and I have some decisions to make that affect what I do for a living. Why does everything always have to change? Can't anything related to my job ever just be the same from one year to the next so the stress level stays low? Ugh!:grumble:
Have a nice evening!

I passed both my goals this month, Horray!!! :drinker:
You all mean so much to me, Thank You!!!! :flowerforyou:0 -
Teresa- You are an inspiration to all of us. Very dedicated and consistent with your exercise. In addition your sunny disposition is greatly needed by me right now. Work is stressful and I'm fighting hard to not resort to emotional eating which is my former way to cope. Scale's not moving right now but it's not going up either so that is success! Congrats on meeting your goals. I will do better next month. The bike is coming out tomorrow and I will add that in to my weekly exercise. Hopefully outside walks will happen soon. Rainy and gloomy here today...
I hope everyone else is having a good weekend. I slept late, needed it, and after my coffee will plan my lunch since breakfast is already passed and I was not awake. Hubbie knew I needed the sleep and kept the pets away and the noise down so I could sleep. Never sleep late so I guess I needed it.
Have a nice day everyone. I'll plan my goals for May and post tonight or tomorrow.

This will be my fourth month in participating. I love to run but walking is so much easier on my joints and knees. Lol
I have reach my weight lost goal which originally 200 pounds. But I decided to lose a extra 31 pounds for good measure.
Walking will help me to maintain my current weight . Sandy you are a wonderful person in taking the time to organize this .
Goal 120 miles for the month of April .
