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!

PS I will be weighing in tomorrow and i'm so nervous!

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!

Little More LIVELY

I felt like my other blog needed a makeover. So I went with something I absolutely LOOOOOOVE!!! Flip-Flops, Summertime, and a FRUITY drink!

I will come back a update my progress with my exercises, I have already gotten half of my mileage in!!

I'll be back!

Leigh

Wow.. tonight's episode of The Biggest Loser was something else!!!

Here are my stats:

114 minutes 6.75 miles 883 calories

YAY!!!! I am so superproud of myself!

I go back to work tomorrow, I took a lil mini vacation the last few days and it was very much needed. Please Pray for me, so that I can continue the road I'm on, I feel WONDERFUL!!

Til tomorrow,
Leigh

ouch are my legs SORE!

I decided to walk early today since my legs were hurting. I think it's from starting back to walking with a vengence. My motivation and determination are very high right now, as I really want to lose 20 pounds before I see my OB in a few weeks. I know I can do it.(or at least come really really close).

I had another great walk, although I really wanted to see the calories burnt up in the 700''s but it wasn't. So, later I may walk another mile or 2 later this evening, and if I do, I will definately update.

So my standings for now is:

90 minutes 5.1 miles 613 calories

again I'd really love to get another 200 calories burnt, but we shall see, I'm really happy with what I've done

Have a Good day!
Leigh

AMAZING

Today was a very good day! I spent a lot of much needed time with my hubby. We went to a bar b q at the church and then went to a friend of ours lil girl's birthday party. I ate WAYYY to much, but I did come home and jump on the treadmill. I changed my routine and can I say it felt WONDERFUL!!!

I walked on 3.5 for a half a mile and then ran on 6 for 30 sec. and then went back to the walking for an HOUR AND A HALF.. can you say I was BEAT!!! But feel GREAT!!

90 minutes 5.5 miles and burned 733 calories.. WOOT WOOT!!!

accountability is a HUGE thing.. oh i couldn't walk yesterday cause dear ole Aunt Flo HATED ME!!! ha ha!

Have a good one!!!
