    Just came in from working in my garden. I love getting my exercise working in the garden instead of on the treadmill inside. I burnt a,most 400 calories doing what I love. Get outside and get moving!73242.png

    I love working outside too. I guess I didn't really think of it as exercise! :noway: How do you know how many calories you burned? (Sorry, I'm new here....) Is there a way to calculate it on here?

    If you go to caloriesperhour.com, there is a calculator that will give you an idea of how many calories you burn doing various activities.. including yard work. I hope that helps!:happy!

    My goal for June is to lose 18 lbs. It's a stretch because I missed my 20lb goal for May by 2 lbs. ...By the way, I used my yard work and house work as my exercise program. :drinker:

    Good Luck to Everyone!!!

    Wow we have alot of new people on this thread. Welcome to all our new comers!!!:bigsmile: :bigsmile:

    My goal for the month is to lose 10 lbs. I took my kids to the park for 1 hr. this morning. Let me tell you that that was a workout. I was chasing my 18 month old son all over the park.

    Hey girls!!

    Love, love, love to see all the new faces!!

    I spent an hour at step class this morning (380 c's) & about another hour playing with the girls at the park. I should've restarted my hrm at the park to track it, but we'll just chalk it up to bonus, hidden calories burned!

    I'm going to the DR tomorrow to have my achilies tendon (sp) looked at. I'm thinking that might be why my ankle & calf are so sore after step class & walking on uneven ground. My friend had tendon issues & it seems that I have all the same symptoms. We'll see! At least my DR is cute! I just hope he doesn't make me rest it! Which is really what I really think he is going to say. I'll just have to work out differently if he does. Use hand weights, leg lifts, crunches, etc to get my burn on! I'll let cha know how it goes!!

    As for this month's goals, I want to lose 5 lbs this month & really make it a point to work & play more outside & less in front of the BOOB TUBE!!

    Have a great day & go get 'em!!

    Hey girls!

    It's quiet here......

    Well, my super cute dr told me no more step aerobics for a while! GRRR!! I knew that was coming.... .. but he said I should be able to do the treadmill as long as I don't elevate it. GRRR again!! I'll have to figure some other ways to get my "burn" on! Weight work should help with that, I'm thinking. It's tendonites in my tendon that runs down the outside of my left ankle and wraps around under the foot. I think it was called posterier long or something. Anyway, it's sore today, so I'm going to listen to the cute dr & behave myself as best I can.

    I hope that you are all doing well & keeping yourselves busy!!

    Hello there ladies!!!!

    It has been awhile since I have been on here. I am now back home from my parents and back on track. It is hard to eat right and exercise as much as I was when you are not in your own home. I did run everyday that I was there but it was not enough for me. I gained 2lbs while I was there, not as much as I thought I was going to!

    Some other interesting things have come about for me and my kiddos. We all have food allergies!!! My oldest is allergic to milk, eggs, peanut and tree nuts (we have known this for awhile now) and now she is allergic to soy (found that out by her eating soybeans:embarassed: ). My younger two have a milk and gluten allergy. Come to find out I have a wheat allergy! I have been getting bad stomach ache and bloating and hives and could not figure out why. Did some research and tried taking wheat out and my bloat is gone and so is my stomach ache and hives! So I have to try and find myself a new diet. But hey maybe I will be able to lose some weight now :smile:
    On a lighter note my husband has been with out a real job (did some part time taxes) since December and we found out about two weeks ago he got the IRS agent job that we have been waiting for since January and he starts on the 22nd!!!

    Sandy I hope that your ankle gets to feeling better!!!

    Crystal I hope that the interview went well for you!

    Mina how fun that you get to go to Tokyo!!! Hope you are having a wonderful time!

    Jen I hope that you are doing well and that your move is going well also!

    Kat glad to see you back! We all need that break every once in awhile I think :smile:

    WELCOME to all you new ladies! This is a great group of women that give wonderful support!

    I missed you all and look forward to kicking some *kitten* again! Oh and my goal this month is to lose 4-8lbs and get back into working out hard again!

    Hey everyone! I havent been on here for some time as my life has been topsy turvy for the last few weeks so struggling with just keeping going....havent done a stroke of exercise for the last three weeks :embarassed: (except for mad dashes from A to B in a stressful state) so glad to be back on track with what Im eating as a starting point for now.
    My goal is to lose 3 Kg in June and despite all the stress over the last few weeks I weighed myself today and saw that Id lost 0.5 Kg so a good start to what I thought was going to be a scary weigh-in :)

    Wishing everyone luck and the motivation to succeed in achieving their goals this month
