I worked in our yard for 3 hours yesterday before the sun and heat got the best of me. Afterwards, I sat on the porch with a tall iced tea and admired my days work.

I hope everyone had a good weekend

I missed a few walk away the pound days. But I did 60 minutes of cardio drumming, as I call it, on Wed. I go at Band Hero on expert and don't stop it leaves me sweaty and burns about 500 calories. I got in 30 min WATP today as well as a 60 minute swim.

I am at 210/1000 Gonna step it up so I can make my 1000.

I was marked wrong on there but doesn't matter this new one will take care of it.

Sorry about that! I just updated. Please let me know if it is still wrong. I didn't realize Band Hero was such a good workout. Do tell! I am always on the lookout for a new Wii game.

I had a great walk this morning and it wasn't too hot and humid.

I'm so excited that the W&D Half is just around the corner. I can almost smell the cheddar beer soup waiting for me at the finish line ... nummy

Sounds like an excellent walk! I love weather like that!

I'm at 225/1000 this month, thanks to a 85 min run/walk on this beautiful morning. It makes me excited for fall and i haven't even had my summer vacation yet.

Keep up the great work everyone!!

You too!

8/5 60 lower body and cardio
8/6 45 cardio
8/7 90 boot camp + cardio

I had a really hard time gritting through boot camp today! I tried spin class for the 1st time - once on Monday and once on Wednesday - and I think it definately took me to a new level this week.

Of course, my weight loss wasn't as good this week as last week.

Way to go making it to boot camp! My gym doesn't offer classes. I've heard such great things about classes like boot camp and spinning that I often think about joining a gym with classes. There's also something great about $10.60 a month.

Thanks CC!

You are 100% right. I love hosting!

I am at 250/1300 so far this month.

All updated! Thanks for checking in!

Yard work is amazing exercise. I can raise my heart rate raking as about the same as the Wii Fit+.



As always, please let me know if I made any mistakes! Have a great week!

Note to self ... leaving the house at 9:00 am for a 65 minute walk is too late in the day in this kind of hot humid weather I was a hot mess!

I'm back!!

Thanks CC & Rose for handling Aug & July.

I finished July with 3604/3000. August I'm at 1171/2500.

Cruise was Great! Spending time with my DSis & her girls/grand daughters even better.

Did a spinning class on the ship & could easily become addicted if there was one near me.....wish there was!

Never took an elevator or escalator the whole trip. Just stairs & TONS of them.

Cruise left on Sat & Tues morning I woke up with upper respiratory crud - thought was allergies & by end of cruise was coughing non-stop. I THINK I may be starting to improve a bit. DD18 is a couple days behind me & also pretty miserable.

Sashi the husky only got walked 3x in 3 weeks, so I'm getting out with her anyway, but not for as long. Slowly catching up.

Looks like everyone here is doing great. KEEP MOVING!!!!

Hi Everyone,

I just updated. Please let me know if I made any mistakes. I doubled checked, but mistakes happen.

Have a great weekend!

Thanks CC.

I am at 440/1000 this month, mostly run/walks, and a little biking. I need to step it up this week so the following week while I'm on vacation, I can relax more.

Keep on moving!!
