Today I biked ..very far I will also get my butt on the mill to tread. What are you all doing today?

The family and I biked for about 15 miles yesterday. Initally we planned to do 5 miles but realized we had gone about 5 miles in one direction. We then got lost in the woods and decided to go with the flow. It was a really beautiful ride. Eventually, some 14 miles later we found our way to a major street and were able to take the street back to the car.

My husband and I plan to attend a bike touring next month in July. Each day we will bike about 15 - 30 miles. Just depends on our (my) body.

I have been walking four times a week for thirty minutes each time. I began strength trainig this week.

36 lbs lost since 4.10.06-----yeah!

20 Minutes on treadmill, 3.5 speed. Walked 15 minutes, and ran the other 5 and 5 minutes on the elipital machine. Thought I was going to die, but I made it out of the gym alive. Going to try and do this everyday and work up to more. Pray for me!!!!!!!!

DOC - good going on the ice cream front. i had a major setback lat week. i ate a whole pint of haagen dazs butter pecan WITH salt on it! so five days of no ice cream i commend you for.

this week has been really spotty on the exercise front for me. i only got 3 days in. and only 2 days of resistance training.

today:

- 105 mins on treadmill @ 3.5 mph, 6 miles. not very intense, but i couldn't let myself only do 2 days this week. that would have been complete regression.

tomorrow i am going to get back on the ball. hi intensity cardio with at least 3 days of resistance. i am also going to start a low carb program tomorrow. i have had success in the past with low carb programs so i am going to see what happens this time.

You guys are doing so wonderful. Esquerdo, Tricia, Doc, Iul, Jess, niche, ljones, Jachut, Penni...

Keep at it all.

I walked 10 minutes today and my back didnot feel like it was gunna break off...

thanks sgt. telly! i am back on the exercise ball.

today:

- 10 mins jog @ 5 mph, 4%

- 20 mins walk @ 4 mph, 5.5%

- 180 arm exercises

- 350 crunches

- 350 leg lifts

i bought some new jeans and i am wearing a size 12 no stretch! yay! i was talking to my cousin and i was talking about what my goal is and i said 8 and realized that i just said that so that no one would think i'm shooting for too much but i realized that what i really want is a 6. i'm gonna try! i'm gonna see if i can get there. don't get me wrong, i'm not basing my whole self esteem on this or anything but this is what I want!

OK, I went to the gym, walked on the treadmill for 12 minutes at 3.5 and then ran for 8 minutes at 3.8 and 4.0, I am excited, I have never been able to run before! It feels good! Did some leg exercises too, the in and out machines that work the inner and outer thighs? Don't know what they are called. But I feel good! Thanks to all for encouraging me!

Ok, does moving two queen bedroom sets, leather couch, loveseat, tv stands, and boxes count as working out? Cause I'm feeling sore.
