Way to go, kidvicious!!! You inspire me to try to do more! I'm almost feeling guilty that today is a cardio day off! :ohwell:
...although I'm wondering if it counts to have my heart rate go up because grocery shopping tonight was irritating? Hmmm0 -
Hey guys! I was so psyched to start this challenge that I walked Saturday and Monday...but then my daughter got sick and I got lazy :grumble: I normally weigh in on Sundays, so as of today I'm still the same weight. Tomorrow I'm back to the gym so hopefully my normal Sunday weigh in will show something lost. Congrats to you all though! I see a lot of great progress so this week up I am gonna strut so I can join in the "way to go!!" Hope you all have a great week!

haha whenever I go grocery shopping I put on ankle weights LOL! It's one way I can get some extra exercise in when I need it.
Today I was only able to exercise for 10 mins..:ohwell: which stinks...but I spent the entire day (10:30am-9pm) working my butt off (I'm a server). I ran around like a chicken with its head cut off...oh man...it was rough, but I think that should count for something lol I never put it in my exercise log tho, but eh, at least I'm active0 -
Hey taxigirlie! Glad to hear you started off well. At least you did something, that's what counts. It's better than nothing Good luck with losing that weight. I know you can do it :happy:0
