Now that all of you are back from the Vegas Bash, and the rest of us Pity Party goers are up off the couch - is anybody willing or interested in participating in an exercise challenge?

I'm not thinking anything drastic - just more than what we're already doing. I think the goal should be for a 'heart healthy' 30 minutes of activity a day, at least 3 days a week. Anything more is a bonus and worth an extra woo-hoo from the group!

Anything counts - weights (Darcy), walking, bike riding (Marie), playing tag with the kids (all the Moms out there), dancing your a** off (Leatha and Lisa).

I know Penni wants to do a 5K here soon, and this would be a way we could all get going with our exercise.

I would love to hear suggestions, comments, any type of feedback.

Do I have any takers?

You'll be forgiven after 20 minutes of banana aerobics. You have about 14 minutes to go.

OK i promise to be good from here on out! I think to do extra pennance I will take the stairs today @ work instead of the elevator! Are you really mad at me? :sick :nervous I'm sorry.................

I was really good this morning. I did 45 min on the treadmill and then 20 min on the recumbent bike. WHOO HOO!! My legs are gonna hate me in the morning.

Way to go Penni!!!!!! Your the man LOL!!!! Your legs may hurt but your heart and body will thank you in the long run!! Great job!

I did something physical today!

I cleaned out my "catch all" room. It was horrible and now it's all cleaned up (mostly)

Exercise challeng met. Took mutts for 45 minute walk around park then did a little upper bod on my machine.

Does sex count?cuz that's all i did last night and this morning!

Who needs jogging hehe*blush*

I vegged out yesterday and felt kinda blah, so this morning I took a brisk half-hour walk without the dog and felt great. I could have gone another hour, but it would have been hard explaining that one to my boss.

Those weights I bought last week? They're decorating my hallway floor; I haven't picked 'em up since I took them out of the car! Tomorrow I begin, promise!

I can't quite remember that stuff you call sex. Is it more fun than walking the dog?

hehe, yesssssss!

Since i have been on the losing side and feeling better about myself it's all i want to do!!(hubby doesn't mind!)

When he can put his hands around my waist,i feel the difference and it's so much fun!!Not to mention actually being able to move...are we aloud to talk about this?!!!!hehe

Anywho,i am going to get weighed this afternoon!Hoping for a HUGE loss.My ring is falling off my finger so i know the numbers are on the good side!

I used to complaim that my hubby was always gone or going out but these days he stays home to get 'happy'!

well I didn't respond but I am also taking part in this challenge. I haven't done anything in like the last 3 months. I started Monday getting in at least 30 minutes of exercise a day. For the past 3 days I have done the treadmill at a pretty fast pace and I must tell ya - my calves are KILLING me. But I feel better though and I also notice I sleep more soundly at night. Anyone else ever notice that?

I can't even wear any of my new cute panties. What's the use putting them on when all he does is yank them off? Hey, I didn't start it, SHE did! But yes, it certainly counts for exercise.

I exercised again today...

New Hope and I cleaned, organized and prepared for my yard sale!

Tell em Marie! Did'nt we do a good job today?

Yes, we did and Lisa is going to make a ton of money so she can host the Houston Bash! Oh, and that killer dog, Spud, he's a pussy cat. He and Duke kissed all over me. Matthew, her 2 1/2 yr. son, is just as precious as in his pics. And Lisa is one of those disgusting women who looks great w/or w/o makeup w/ beautiful skin!

I'm in you know I started jogging again!

LOL M&M,

A ton of money...So, when I tote that ton of money around does that count for exercise? Coins are heavy you know!
