antrobin - how very cool is that! I used to love when we hiked through the Sierras (Near Lake Tahoe) seeing the big bucks and if we were in the Northern part up towards Lassen, on occasion we would see Big Horn Sheep. Those are pretty impressive. On the Eastern slopes outside of Reno, we would stumble across wild horses.…

2 miles walking yesterday - mostly unplanned and I felt it in the ankle but the good news, its better today. I also rode my bike for just over 8 miles! Starting to really enjoy being able to ride again!

Was able to do some light walking last night. Walked to the park for workout and did a lap then walked home after workout. Took the train in today which means some decent walking between stations. I'm thinking a bike ride tonight when I get home but we'll see how it goes. Ankle is not 100% but better
-
Well done!
-
Glad you got that solved. I had viewed the pics but I dont think I remember asking you about cooking them - or maybe I did?? lol
-
antrobin - Exactly! The simple pleasures can be the best! Looks like everyone is getting back at it. Bike ride yesterday morning. Just over 10 miles. I was pretty pleased with that considering I had to take it easy. Ankle is still swollen but getting better. don't know that I'll get much walking in but I will get a workout…

Carl - that is nothing. And also a note to folks who may not realize it. You should weigh yourself before you work out. You can actually weight more after a workout because the body is retaining fluids to try and recover. So keep that in mind as well. You'll be back on track this week. Smirnoff - Congrats!!! That is…

Smirnoff- I understand the work grind. Glad you were able to get a nice walk in. I did an easy bike ride yesterday (Dee - lol I so wish they made the seats wider). I was surprised that it was almost 8 miles. Light circuit training this morning, now icing the ankle, watching Tour de France. Probably gardening later.
-
That sounds like a very good idea!
-
Happy Friday to all! Dee - so glad the back is doing better! Like Carl, I don't run. Im not a runner by nature anyway and since hip surgery - well no matter what they say, an artificial hip just doesnt have much give in it on hard surfaces. Fortunately I can do lots of walking and I'm getting back on my bike. Smirnoff -…

Welll I got in a great walk and Boot Camp/Circuit training yesterday. May have to add me to the injury list! Woke up this morning to a rather sore and swollen ankle and I have no idea what I did so today may end up being my rest day. I had planned on that being tomorrow so we'll just have to see how it is when i get home…

hirstl - that is awesome!. I still have a ways to go but I can now wear some workout clothes that I have not been able to wear for 2 yrs. One of the women I work with yesterday complemented me on my weight loss! :-)) Big smile! That's the stuff that keeps us going! Way to keep at it everyone!
-
Ah Carl I'm so sorry! I just saw this. Deep breath my friend. Lots of good thoughts and prayers for you and your family. I understand. Take time for you.

Rode my bike for about 6 miles yesterday. It was rather warm - more than i expected to it was pretty leisurely but I did manage a few hills. Hope everyone is having a good day and all the aches and pains are getting much much better!
-
Smirnoff - Nicely done! Since I do a circuit training workout 3x a week - its pretty routine but I did get a pretty good walk in before the class yesterday- about 3 miles total. I am also able to walk to the park before the class then home after! :-) Spoiled I know! He kicked our tails yesterday - 45 mins of circuit…

Any workout is a good workout no matter what. I work full time and some days its very tough to get in more than an easy walk. but that's ok! Good for you for doing what you can!
-
Can be either one in truth - more to the Charlatan . I'm not a big advocate for chiropractors. However, a good one can do a lot of good. Found one for my daughter when her spine and hip were so out of line and she was terrific. Helped me keep my spine from being too whacked out until I had my hip surgery. There are certain…
-
Carl - way to kill the ride! Dee - be careful with the back. Ice and some stretches but if its painful you should not be doing anything Smirnoff - take care of that shoulder. Yesterday - I got my walk in before my circuit training workout. I have to admit it's nice to be somewhere we can workout in the park. Played 18…
-
Smirnoff - I have been on one once and almost fell so it is impressive. Yesterday was supposed to be a rest day but the puppies were wound up so got a short walk (2.8 miles) in with them. Was able to get my ride in this morning. - total of 11.46 miles cycled. Now to make coleslaw for the BBQ tonight. Happy 4th to all my…

This is great! And sounds good! It really is the smaller things that lead to the big ones!

Way to go Bizgirl! 6/28 -I'm back down to the 188 lbs! Not the 10 lbs but it's the first time in months that I have really been on track and gone down. So thank you Carl!!!!! and I know that we have an NSV page going but I think I'll post mine here. Just started the new session of my "bootcamp" which is really Circuit…

-
Hump DAYYYYY yeah! Hope everyone is having a great day! 6/24 - 6 miles cyciling. I did lots of loops to stay away from the hills as I didn't want to press it with the hip.
-
Ok you guys are just killing the workouts! Dang! Time to up my game. Was able to get a couple of miles walking in last night and also had 45 mins Circuit Training. Plan on getting a ride in later after work. Our building decided to raise the parking rates and since I dont drive every day - it was 3x what it had been (I get…

First time I have walked 18 holes of golf in awhile and it was pretty good. Not too hot which helped. The actual walk distance was just under 7 miles (6.84 to be exact). I'm even more excited that my hip is not sore today. Have workout tonight which should be good. Have a great Monday!
