    NO WORRIES Bgodess2003-we all started where you are. Do not quit!!! :noway: Get inspiration from us so you know where you will be in a few months!!!! We all started with 1 mile at a time. That is why texasgardnr started this challenge. You are NOT competing with us, but with yourself! YOU set your goal and YOU meet it! I am not going to meet mine this month as it was too aggressive considering my online work load. It happens sometimes. But I admire Bandit and PinkyPan for meeting and exceeding theirs. No worries!!!! Bgoddess has her own goals! Hang in there as we would miss you terribly if you left us.

    Well said, zichab, when you wrote about how we are challenging ourselves to become more healthy and fit, and NOT competing with one another.
    Each of us have different goals, and we are all at different points in our fitness levels or stages in life.

    I have had many challenges this month in caring for my brother. Last week he moved into our home to continue with his recovery. He took his first steps in three months, with the aid of a walker, just days prior to being discharged from the second rehabilitation facility to my home.

    In the meantime my exercise and eating healthy slid off even the proverbial back burner. I intend to find both again, especially with the encouragement that this group is famous for <3 .

    PS: the May walk challenge has been posted in the announcement section until Friday :) .

    I agree that this is NOT a competition. This is simply a group that encourages each other to walk and enjoy ourselves. I started with very few miles. I have been walking a year now and have added miles. Walking is my main exercise and the only way I can burn calories effectively. Because of this group I have been able to push myself further than I ever imagined. I little more than a year ago I had a heart attack and I needed to get healthy. Walking has helped me regain my health. Thank God for Leslie Sansone and this group.

    Please do not quit...one foot in front of the other. Stay strong. You are wanted here.

    Hugs,
    Mary

    Sorry I got in the car with my husband and clocked the milage to the ice cream store, I said we used to walk for ice cream so maybe we can again, he said yeah but we were in our 20's......so I said its something we can do slowly. Lol :#
    Oh, that sure brings back fun memories. My then finance (now my husband of over 30 years) and I used to jog to the ice cream shop and walk back with cones B) . We were in our 30s :o .

    bgoddess, do continue walking for ice cream with your husband while making more memories together <3 .

    What a sweet surprise to see the goslings, :) . Awesome start to your day by catching some well deserved extra ZZZs and taking your walk in the park.

    Not lame! That's what I did all week long and I feel so much better than before I started.
    I'm really enjoying my new dvds and getting outside a little. Finished off this month with the Just Walk Fat Burn 30 minute walk. Made my goal 55/55!

    Please don't ever feel this is a competition, I only walk for me and compete with myself. I look forward to meeting and exceeding my goals. I would hate to know that I made someone feel bad about their own journey. Please just do what makes you feel good!
