Legs so sore!!

My legs are hurting sooo terribly bad that I decided that I was taking the day off from walking. Let alone the fact that I had to have my lil man at an end of school year party, and then to watch the finale of the Biggest Loser. with NO treadmill... GRRRR... but it's ok, it was a choice that I made and I will survive :) I have done really well the last couple of weeks and am making great progress.. the number on the scale is coming down...

I hope you all have a GREAT day!

What a surprise.. AAALLLLLLL that food I ate yesterday and I LOST a pound.. WHAT?!?! I WILL TAKE IT!!

I did extremely well today with my walk...

103 minutes

779 calories

6.02 miles

I'm finding I'm racking up the mileage while I don't have the treadmill and I think that could be telling me something! besides the fact that I'm getting vit. D while I'm at it!

Have a GREAT day!

cheat day

I had a lil cheat day today.. I was DIEING for some donuts (Krisp Kreme) and then my mother in law made a GREAT lunch.. then went to swim at my sister's house. Had a great time..

My treadmill decided it didn't like me today, SOOO i had to kick in a DVD.. I got in a 2.25 miles walk before we went for the swim, I'm not counting the swim as exercise as I did more laying around than anything. This was the 1st time in YEARS that I put on a swim suit and still surprised that i did..

2.25 miles in 37 minutes and burned 311 calories..

will be going for another walk this afternoon so i will definately update when I get back

ok here are my total... I'm even SHOCKED

97 minutes

5.74 miles

795 calories

i'm super so excited.. especially since my treadmill is NOT working


Have a GREAT evening!!

I took yesterday off.. really no excuse but, here is my excuse lol! I worked a 12 hour shift and I. WAS. DRAINED..... period.. thank goodness my wonderful mother in law cooked supper so I was able to rest.

Today I didn't think I had it in me to walk, but.. got on there and

walked 5.5 miles in 90 minutes and burned 756 calories, PERFECT if i must say so myself! (there was no running involved, as i was extremely proud of myself!)

Hope ya'll have a Great Evening!

Get With It!

I just had to put that as my title, because.... I thought I was taking today off from walking, and hubby was on the laptop, so I decided what better way to spend the time than to... WALK!! ha ha! so I talked myself into walking even though I was taking the day off...

I walked for 65 minutes

burned 535 calories

4 miles


I am very happy with the way things are going! I only have a few more days til I weight in..

Have a Great Day!

I'm so happy I have accomplished so much this week! I have stayed on my caloric ranges and the goals I have alllmost reached them all. I was aiming to try to burn ay least 700 calories a day, well some days are easier than others. With that being said, I returned back to work from my vacation today, so my body was WHOOPED! I did get in my milage though, just wish I could have hit more calories, I am not disappointed though.

Here's my stats:

90 minutes 5.25 miles and 613 calories

I am very happy as I have dropped a pound or two! I will weigh in prolly Sat. morning and give my results then!

Have a Great Day!
