    Phone a friend and walk while you talk. Or blast some music and clean...every time a male vocalist comes on either dance or walk around the house. This makes cleaning take a lot longer, but it also makes you move longer.

    *facepalm*
    I had a chippy tea
    I wish I read these comments first!
    BUT it's early! Bath is running for the girls! So get them bathed and in bed after baby's last bottle!
    There's like hardly any cleaning to do so I can do some exercise!

    I can still fix this!

    Thank you , Joan 6630. I did complete my hour's work on the DR table--not sure if it looks any better, but I did get all the bills paid (LOL). Thank you for your encouragement.

    What type of social dance did you do in the past?

    Check zumba.com...they maintain a pretty complete list of classes that is searchable.

    I checked our YMCA - and they have zumba! So wish me luck -- I'm going to try and go to some of the classes! I also saw several other "dance" classes there that would be fun. They have a class called "boogie Dance Tone" - which is 50s music, something called "variety Dance Club" and line dancing (that I never really liked though, but it might still be fun. Thanks for the inspiration to get out there and dance again. I was never very good, but loved it, so hopefully I can keep up with the zumba!

    This is awesome!!! Have fun!

    Just for today: Wednesday

    Water 8 glasses- :)
    Start spring cleaning- :#
    Get out for a walk- B)

    Good morning all! I'm doing surprisingly well on my calorie intake while being off this week. Just tracking and not really setting limits. Haven't had much of an appetite so I might even lose... Spring cleaning hasn't even started yet. It's a struggle to keep even the daily stuff done with so many of us here.

    Just for today: Thursday

    Water-8 glasses
    Walk with friends again
    Clean, organize, get a plan for this weekend. I might get help

    Good luck with your goals today!!
