Mamamea!!! Holy smokes! Congrats on surpassing your February goal! Yay!

Welcome Diggy! I'm a slacker lately so I haven't been posting. Just came back from a wonderful long "Women's Wellness Weekend" with my mother-in-law and my sisters. It was at the YMCA of the Ozarks in Missouri. Beautiful, tranquil setting....no phones or televisions in the rooms! Anyway, I want to say welcome to the group.…

@AZChatter---Hang in there! You remember the old saying "That which doesn't kill you makes you stronger". I'm sure you'll get stronger! p.s. Thanks for the heads up. I won't be signing up for boot camp anytime soon! LOL 2 Mile Big Burn w/intervals today. It felt good. I'm getting my frame of mind straightened out I guess.…

Thanks for the words of encouragement! I'm sitting on the couch right now but I can see a walk in my future. I'll keep trying. This is a great group and it's a blessing to be a part of it. Thanks again. Patti

I just caught up on reading this board and I'd like to everyone for the anniversary wishes. I appreciate it!

I recently bought the Sleek and Slim 3 mile through Amazon.com They have a LOT of the older walks available through their marketplace...listed as "used". I have about 8 Leslie videos and I love the variety. I have to agree that the Bootcamp is great because of the variety. It seems to fly by. We're on the cool down before…

Hi Everyone, I'm having a problem motivating myself this week. Did good walking and eating last week but my weight stayed the same. I can't seem to lose consistantly despite having gastric bypass in 2010. I know it's been almost 2 years but I would think the weight loss would be a little easier now, but it's not. The first…

How about planning a romantic vacation on a beach somewhere. (The swimsuits can be quite motivating! LOL) Thinking about a wonderful, relaxing, romantic week together at some all-inclusive resort will keep you on track. It may also help brighten your hubby's state of mind. Good luck with whatever you decide to do.

Three more miles today. Had a day off from strict dieting...it was my 34th wedding anniversary! Went to a very unique movie theater where they served food to our cushioned, recliner seats. The height of luxury, even a small pillow and blanket for our viewing comfort. A wonderful highlight to "our day" together. Hope…

@AZChatter--- Welcome back! Good luck with your Boot Camp. You have to let us know how it is. I know you can do it along with your walking! Patti

Hello! I'm in for February. I have 8 miles in so far. I'd like to go for 60 miles total. I really like being part of this "club". Thanks to all of you for the encouragement you give me. We're a great group!! Happy walking! Patti

To Cunnine---Well done! 41 miles is fantastic! When your body tells you to stop, you stop. If you push too far you might injure yourself and then you won't be able to move at all. Good job! Patti

Hi Did you see "A Closer 2 Mile Walk"? It's also part of the Walk by Faith Series. Patti

Good Morning--- I did Leslie's 5 mile fat burner this morning. Feels good to move again, I've been slacking lately but started moving again 4 days ago. I don't really know how many miles I have in this month but I'm trying so that's ok. Have a great day everyone! Patti

What is this? I've seen "bump" on other posts. As always, I'm out of touch! LOL

To SuzenM: Are you getting enough water? How about protein? Make sure you're getting all the nutrients your body needs. It's so important to get vitamins and protein when you're dieting. Just a thought. Patti

@Tazzy.... Congratulations on your fantastic weight loss! You're right to keep moving, you don't want it to come back. Keep up the good work. You're inspiring to me! Patti

Hi Walkers! I started on January 1st and have walked 17 miles so far. Yay!!! I haven't been on the boards much because I've been trying to figure out how to work my new body bugg. Has anyone else used one before? It measures calories burned and steps taken each day. I like it but I'm having a few computer gliches with it.…

Hi Everyone! Happy New Year! I'm ready to start giving it that extra umph. I'll set my goal at 60 miles for January. Does anyone remember how to post your ticker? I tried last month and couldn't get it done. Please help! LOL Good luck all! Patti

Trying to add my ticker but it's not working. Ugh!!!!!

Had a bad start this week. No walking because I had the stomach flu. Yuk! Feeling better now so it's time to dig in. I'm going to try and make up for the lost days on the Leslie December Challenge. Wish me luck. Patti

Hi walkers! pmjsmom---sometimes it takes a while to get back into a routine for exercising. You're trying and that's what matters! You know I missed a few months while we were planning my daughter's wedding, but I'm back now and happy I'm here! Another 4 miles today. We're going to the Kris Kringlemart in Chicago today so…

Good morning! 2 miles with intervals this morning. Not sure how to log the calorie burn on that. Does anyone have a simple calculator for figuring out how many calories are burned during a workout? Thanks Have a great day! Patti

Did 5 big miles today. I love how quickly the time and miles pass on Leslie's workouts. It's really great. Hope everyone is having a good start to the month. Good night all. Patti

Hi Everyone! I'm back for December. Thanks for starting this again AZChatter. Appreciate it! I'm setting my goal at 60 miles. I'm trying the challenge on the Leslie website so I'd like to succeed at both! Good luck to all of us and welcome to all the new challenge walkers. Patti

Good morning everyone, AZChatter...I'm glad you're on the mend. I agree that the 5 mile advanced walk would've been too much for you when you're just recuperating. December is going to be a challenge with the holiday get togethers and celebrations. We just have to keep each other motivated and on track. We can do this!!!!!…

Hello! I did the 5-mile Leslie DVD again today. It's my version of the "last chance" workout. I'm really hoping to show a loss tomorrow when I weigh. We went to the show last night and I had some popcorn and 2 pieces of flatbread pizza with a berry cup for dessert. I know that wasn't the absolute best choice, but I counted…

Another 5 miles today. I am determined to show a loss on Monday. Keeping my fingers crossed! goal=25 miles total so far=46 miles Yay!!!! Thanks for all your encouragement and kind words. Patti
