Good Morning Ladies,
Hope everyone is ready to conquer the day...with less calories and fat than normally consumed. I didn't work out yesterday, so I am going to hit the gym today. Day two of Atkins...LOL...
I am going to incorporate the "Body Shaping" exercises - they are new in the workout section - along with my cardio.

Motivation Mantra: Run from sweaty shroud; run to bike ride on country road, feeling joyful and free.
that's my favorite line from that article :D Thank you for that article!!
Congrats on your day too!! I just wrote in my food/activity journal...
Good Deal...I am heading to the gym!
First day back to work... and I didnt have the energy for my treadmill.. :-( But will be doing strength and flexibility so I didnt completely blow the day off. lol
We're all doing good :) I'm off to do core exercises I saw from the side bar where the lady is doing situps (cracked me up) Steve and I walked the big hill out front on Westview Parkway...It wasn't fun and I didn't like it...so, I'll be doing that 3 x week LOL
You go, guys! I did the eliptic machine for 15 minutes, some free weights, core exercises and a little stretching. I don't think I can do all of that everyday. Tomorrow, I may just run and do core exercises.
Oh yea, couldn't do the body shaping, I have to find my ball!
I did the core, but I am trying to get back to the Y so I can teach myself to run for the marathion in april..any suggestions from anyone?? I do better with rap music on the ipod :) does anyone else wanna share some good workout tunes!!
Day TWO and I speedwalked/jogged for 20 minutes, then came home and did 10 minutes of stretching! I feel like I accomplished SOMETHING. Tomorrow... running and strength... :-)
Crystal and Tina - Great Job! Crystal, I have never been a runner...it takes everything I have to run. When will you start at the Y again, I love that place.
I walked around my level of my complex yesterday...didn't have the energy to do it today though, sadly :(; I figure if I do that just a few times a week to start with, I should be good to go to walk longer distances. What do you guys think? There's three levels of our complex, and each level is pretty big
Sounds like everyone is off to a great start! I've been doing some exercises at my house, it is way too cold to walk outside right now, it has been in the teens... wet Louisiana cold.

Marci,
If you get you a exercise ball (that you do crunches on) not a weight ball - and some free weights, there are a whole lot of things you can do indoors. I am going to dig my ball out of storage this weekend.
I need a ball; my other ball got flat cuz I bounced it outside...lol (the child in me was screaming to get out)....just walked around my level again; feeling great and accomplished. Had rolled tacos last night for dinner at Robertos; with lots of sour cream :(
LOL...that is too funny about your inner child, but we must take care of them first. Don't beat yourself up about the sour cream.
Well once again I was too lazy to drag the butt and her friend out of bed at 4:30 to treadmill... So, walked around the building at work for 15 minutes... and now that I am home plan to do core exercises. whew... do we rest on Sunday??? hahaha
lol...the butt and her friend...hahahaha; i love that. my resource counselor today said that she noticed that i looked a little thinner....WOO HOO; talk about motivation!!!!
LMAO...to funny!
WOW!! there's alot of sweat going on in here :D I signed up at a gym a block away from work for 5 mons...a trainer put me on a treadstepper (?) and LEFT ME THERE!! she was actually on another machine right across from me...I was too scared to get off it...17 mins later, she joined the machine next to me and I had sweat falling off my eyelashes. that, for me, was the most cardio I have done in alot of years....it took alot out of me...but I'm very proud of myself because I know I wouldn't have stayed on there if she didn't scare me LOL
