Good work, Tammat (and Jillian!)


Enjoy those walks, Karen!


3 miles on the treadmill this morning.

(I started out thinking I'd do two miles, but well, somewhere along the way, I lost track. Til I realized where I was, I only needed 1/4 mile for my 3. My mind tends to vegetate when I'm on the treadmill sometimes. I was looking out the window and thinking that the flower bed really needs a good weeding!)

2 miles on the treadmill this evening.

2.5 miles on the treadmill this morning...it's a dull, dreary rainy day and that was all I could muster at the time.

2.6 mile walk tonight

Not much today since sweating while on antibiotics is too yucky for me. I did a 6 min warm up walk, a 6 min ab video (tough), then marched with 5 lb weights in each hand for 10 min.

Poison is the worst. I wouldn't be able to walk with it either. But you're doing very well otherwise!

Don't blame you for not wanting to do much. But you did something and that's what counts.

I'm currently typing while on the exercise bike. ::lol3: I haven't been on here in so long, since before I hurt my knee, that my goal is only around 20 minutes or so to see how my knee takes it. If it goes ok, maybe I will do it again this afternoon.

I thought about going out for a walk in the park today, but stayed home with kitty instead. I really don't have an excuse not to exercise, because the park is right next door to my condominium complex...

2.0 miles on the treadmill this afternoon

(Miaomiao, when we went out in your neck of the woods last week, I didn't have an excuse not to exercise.....in the resort, our room was directly across from the exercise room. All I had to do was open our door, cross the hall, open the door and there was a treadmill with my name on it. It was good because there was no excuse. It was bad because.....there was no excuse.)

l'm so impressed with everybody's walking and exercise routines. Great job ladies 


For me, my exercise has been minimal. l built the treadmill and was too busy with work to do all the iFit/online stuff, so l just did it today. l've downloaded a bunch of courses that will dictate my speed, incline, and length of workout, so l don't have any choice!

So far, using the treadmill in manual mode only, the most l did was 2 miles. This should be ugly 


peaches, l'm sorry to read you haven't been feeling well

and tammat, l'm so very sorry to read of Ruben's passing.

Hugs to both of you

Did 2 miles on treadmill. Up and back down a hilly region of Hawaii.

l can see the first beginnings of my weight loss now, and NOT in the places l want to lose. l had my Fitbit clipped into one side of my bra, and my ipod stuffed in the other side. There's so little else in there that my ipod didn't even shuffle. Not once!

How do you like your treadmill, Andrya? I'm jealous! (I hear you about the "emptier" bra. That would be me. 
)

3 miles on the treadmill this morning

2.6 mile walk with Rick last night
