Wake Up & Walk--1 Mile 2/25

Goal for November: 25 miles. Nadyia's Classic Mile 1/25

I'm going to jump in and join all of you this month. I really appreciate all the regular posters who have kept these monthly challenges going all these years. Here's to everyone having a healthy, active, and awesome November!

I've had the app for a couple of years now. If you're working out from home and have plenty of LS workout DVDs, I would say stick with those. But if you're looking for lots of variety, get the app. Each month you get a new selection of 30-31 workouts. You can do whatever workout you want no matter what day it happens to be…

Hey everyone! I hope you're all doing well! I've come back to join you. Last month, one rest day turned into many missed days which then turned into total discouragement. But when I got the announcement e-mail about the LS Walk Challenge, I was inspired. I really want to see this 100 days through. I'm not going to pressure…

Today, I had the best workout ever! Yesterday, I was (again) looking at the workouts in Leslie's app. I saw one called "Walk, Kick,& Jab". I love workouts that have a kickboxing element to them and always wished LS would have done more than "Walk and Kick". I was excited to see this workout and then I noticed it was only…

It's on the LS's app this month. I just skimmed through it. I'm anxious to try it. The music selection is good and the moves are quite varied. I saw a lot of jump squats and didn't see anyone modifying. That seems to be my growing gripe with Leslie--it's like she forgot many people who do her workouts aren't always up for…

AnnofB! I was inspired by your last post and, today, did my first Jessica Smith workout! I did "Steady Burn" from the 6-Mile Mix DVD. I felt like I got a good workout in. Jessica is much more fast-paced than Leslie. It's a funny thing... In my past post, I mentioned LS's "2 Mile Walk" DVD. While I was doing the Jessica…

I ended up not working out over the weekend and learned two things in the process: -I really do need to take the tried and true advice you always read when it comes to working out: It's important to schedule it in. This weekend, I kept putting it off and putting it off. Today, I vowed to make 6PM my workout time. -Even…

Welcome! I just joined the group as well. The challenge threads are very active and that's so, totally motivational. Let us know how you end up liking your new LS workouts. :)

zichab & AnnofB: Thank you both for sharing your thoughts about the newer LS workouts. I was wondering if it was just me and that my fitness level had decreased so much even an LS workout was difficult. Reading your thoughts gave me comfort. :) Ended up doing the 1-Mile Get Up and Get Started. Ah! I haven't done this…

Just finished one mile of Punch Up Your Walk. Never in a million years would I thought I'd ever think of LS workouts as being too advanced, but when I was looking through her app to find today's workout, I found myself thinking that very thing. I've been subscribed to the app for over a year. Maybe it's just me, but it…

Yikes! Sorry to read about the pain you've experienced. Even though the LS workouts are convenient, it sounds like you've come up with an excellent Plan B. Nothing beats outdoor walking. And mall walking with, say, a good audio book, can be even better than an LS workout.

Whoah! You guys are amazing! And inspiring! I'm starting out this month having not worked out in a very long time. My goal for this month is 35 miles. I just finished doing one mile of the Miracle Miles: 4 Mile Walk. I nearly died. P.S: AnnofB: Thank you for welcoming me to the group (in last month's thread). I really…

Here's the direct link to the group: https://facebook.com/groups/1766264033691936/ Anna, can you change the title to "Losing Is Winning Weight Loss Team"? No hyphen is needed.

I suppose the name could be something similar to what we're all used to seeing--something like "My journey to..." or "Escape from... or "From (blank) to (blank)..." Hopefully someone can come up with something more creative, but we can always fall back on one of those for now and change it later.

Hey everyone! Even though there are only five days left in the month, I'm going to jump in and join you. My goal: 7 miles before the month is up. I've been using LS workouts on and off for 13 years. I always come back to them after not having exercised in a really long time. And this is one of those times. I weigh a great…

If annalisa2662 doesn't respond in a few days, does anyone else want to start the group? I can start one if need be. It really would be awesome to have a small group of people who get what it's like to be at this weight.

I'd join as well. If you want to start one, let us know when you do.
