Child care. During the school year it's easy to find times to work out because the kids are at school, but I don't know what I am going to do next month when they are out. Might find myself and the kids swimming much more so I don't need to stress over it, but it would be so great to be able to have child care right on…

I've been limited to my little 5lb weights at home, but I am going to start this week with some real weights at the gym. Right now I am very very weak, so I can only imagine what I'll be able to do at first ;)

When you stress your muscles, they will always hold a bit of water to aid in healing themselves. You have to stress your muscles to make them stronger, but this is what people mean by them needing to repair. You should give yourself a day of rest before weighing in to get a more accurate reading. <3

Sure will try!

I'm set up for 90 minute swim and 60 minutes in the gym today. I will probably settle on the bike or treadmill today ;)

LOL me too! The good thing about going with inserts is that you don't have to buy new shoes, so the $50 wasn't so bad. I was able to keep the shoes I had. Newbalance are great running shoes, so it's probably the way you land/put pressure on a certain area.

I've never participated in one of these challenges, but I will try to keep track of distance and post here. Too bad I can't measure my swimming distance lol... I will say 30 miles for May for myself.

Swimming for 2 hours for me is worth around 1200. Not only am I a big girl, but I think for everyone it's a matter of finding something you can do for a long period of time and stick with it.

I went to the pharmacy area in Walmart and stepped onto the Dr. Scholls Mat they have there. It senses where you put most pressure etc. It recommended I get a specific insert for my shoes and although it cost me around $50, I was desperate so got them. Haven't gotten a blister since.
