06/12 90 min.
Sorry that I didn't post last night.....anyways....I spoke of a goal two days ago. When I started this journey I didn't just set myself a main goal to where I want to go but also in between goals to keep my motivation up. One of those I hit yesterday morning and it feels wonderful. I went below the 200 lbs. mark!!!! To see the 1 in front of my weight made me do the happy dance lol as I honestly can't remember when I was there before (my last remembrance on this was about a year after my son was born which was about 10 years ago. This gives me the motivation to push even harder. It's reachable to loose the last 50 lbs. (before I was almost at 100 lbs. to loose)...anyways just wanted to share that with you guys

Hi all! I'd love to join you guys. I'll do a 10 week goal of 5000 minutes. That 500 minutes a week should stretch me a bit further than what I've been doing the past few months (usually doing between 380-460 minutes weekly). I'll grab my minutes from MFP going back to 6/8 and post those tomorrow. Glad to have you guys for support and am all ready to cheer you on!!

6/14 - 37
So I tallied up 455 minutes for my 1st week of this challenge & will have to find some extra minutes in the days to get up to my goal.
The zoo was fun. Super hot and muggy, but we like to go a couple times a year and hadn't been in awhile. I didn't count my waking as E because it was so stop & go with my toddler, but I kept up with my 20k step average for weekend days so I'm happy with that. Weekdays are much tougher to reach step goals with my sedentary job (software consultant) so I usually JUST hit my 13k goal each day if I push it.
Have a great day!

I know I am behind. First off I want to welcome Flo, Kel , Kimberly and Amanda to the challenge.
I went back to the doctor today for a follow up. I am going to start Physical Therapy tomorrow. I am going to start doing some stretching and strengthing at home. I will also do some walking on the treadmill. I did some stretching and leg exercises on Friday along with 15 minutes on the treadmill at a very slow 1.5 MPH. That’s about all I am capable of right now. I tried to go faster but it was a little painful so I decided to hold back.
6/12
15 Mins Stretches/Legs
15 Mins Treadmill

Goal: June 24, 2012
