OK, September is upon us! Time to think about your exercise goal.

I decided to make a goal of 30 mins 6 x per week. Total of 750 minutes.

Monthly Total = 2095 Minutes

70 minutes bike trails

75 minutes weight lifting lower body/abs

35 minutes recumbent bike interval hill trainer level 10

OMG When I added another 10 minutes on the recumbent bike, it put the highest hill five times in a row right in the middle of the workout!

I thought I was gonna DIE!

Just checked and I only need to lose 10.2 more pounds to move from "seriously obese" to plain ole "obese"! Gotta keep movin!!!!! If I don't exercise, the scale moves SO SLOWLY!!! When I exercise, I lose about 3lbs per week avg. (at least thus far) When I don't it's 1-1.5 per week! Exercise is worth it!!!! YEAH!

I just couldn't get through my workout today, and quit my cardio right in the middle. I don't know why I am so tired today. Probably kid stress...teenagers, ugh...making me crazy!

45 minutes on the treadmill today. Planning on joining the gym real soon.

Today was a great workout! I couldn't get to two of the weight machines I use because it was so busy, so that part was a little shorter. However, I got right back on track with my cardio after tanking in the middle of it yesterday. I was really disappointed in myself, I must say.

I am really starting to feel very strong, and that is an amazing feeling! And my shoulders are looking FANTASTIC! LOL No more pudgy roundness to them...getting very toned. (Those evening gowns are going to look amazing when I go to Vegas in November!) This is starting to pay off and it makes me want to work even harder, so I am going to double my weight lifting workout. I'm up to the optimal time for cardio, so it is just a matter of gradually increasing the resistance to build up.

Folks, I cannot tell you how glad I am that I pushed through those first few weeks of HATING working out. It's true what they say...push through that and one day you will wake up and NEED to go...it's addicting. I love it!

I never would have done it without you guys and this challenge...THANK YOU!

You can add another 60 minutes for me. I don't think I am going to meet my challenge again this month. I injured my foot some how and I really cannot walk for more than 30 minutes at a time. It is my exercise of choice but I think I am going to start some upper body work out. I am going to go out and get some weights and bands.

I went to the fair today and walked around for 3 hours. I hope this counts for exercise. I was very tired and sore by the time we left.
