I walked 1 mile today....

[Poohbear123]

My DH goes to a near by Park and walks 3 times a week....today, my day off, I decided to join him. They have a path that is marked 2 miles, and I walked half of it, so I figured I walked a mile....I know I was tired afterword! I plan on doing this at least 3 times a week. Oh, and I weigh in tomorrow.

I think thaht is a wonderful thing Pooh!! Before you know it you'll be passing DH up and walking circles around him!

 

[Poohbear123]

Yes, he does leave me in the dust, but when I am at WDW I leave HIM in the DUST! LOL. He said to pretend I am at WDW! I will post my weigh in tomorrow on this same thread.

I am a HUGE fan of walking- it helps everything!! It gives you energy, slims your buttocks, waist and thighs, and helps you sleep soundly for a good night's rest!! The only downside to walking is you need new shoes faster!! GREAT JOB!!
KEEP IT UP!!! And you'll see the weight come off more consistently by keeping it up!!

Good for you, Poohbear! You know, the great thing about walking is that you will see almost immediate results in your stamina. It will not take long before you can do that mile faster, or add more miles. I love to walk for (part of my) exercise, and I hope you come to love it to. I love breathing fresh air into my lungs and I always feel energized when I am done with my walk. Also, once you get into a routine you should expect that you will actually have more energy throughout the day as a result of your walking, and you just might sleep better too! Good luck with your new exercise program!

Unfortunately, my Scale at work is BROKEN! I have no scale at home, so I cannot weigh till next week. Oh, well, maybe by than I would have lost a LOT!! I forgot to let you all know, I am on a 25-30 Fat gram/900 Calorie diet! Was on it once before and lost 22 pounds, so I am hoping for that and more!
