Im not big on exercising by ANY stretch of the imagination, but I DID manage to do 30 mins on the tread mill today (15 mins in a.m. & 15 mins in the afternoon) and.......lo 'n behold, I didn't die!! It felt like it after 10mins, but I pushed myself and made it to the very end! I can't imagine having the energy to do this EVERY day, LOL! I was ready for bed by 4pm, hahaha.

Im to assume that this is only going to get easier as time goes on, but in the meantime........YAWWNN, I need to take a NAP, lol. Zzzzzzzzzzzzz

I love this site! :smile:

    It not only gets easier but you'll be amazed that you suddenly have MORE energy in a short amount of time... that is if you keep feeding your body with the right foods and keep getting enough sleep (I think people underestimate the power of sleep!!) :happy:

    Soon, you'll be asking what other exercise to do cause you're bored with walking cause it's gotten too easy for you LOL! :laugh: good work!!

    Working out for 30 minutes was a lot for me but now I'm up to an hour and if I miss a day I go CRAZY!! It's totally addicting. If you keep at it, it will for sure happen to you too!!!

    I :heart: to play with the incline on the treadmill to really kick up the workout! I started running on the inclines which I thought I would NEVER be able to do!
