Let's Post our Daily Exercise

Ruth - I bet the police will work hard to get the twerp - hit and run is pretty bad. So glad you are OK.  I bet you are sore - when you're at a stopping point with your project today, how about a hot bath and a cold glass of white wine to help ease the aches?    Orange - congrats on PT Graduation Day!  NWArt - great news on the hike!!  What a difference 6 months can make.  Joy - hope the B12 shots give you a "shot in the arm" (so to speak) and boost that energy. 

2 mile run this morning - got it in ahead of the thermometer hitting 80 again.  Highs predicted for 100 today - yuk!!

Hi everyone, just checking in. Too hot to do anything, even to go to pool

Waitng for the 4th of July Zumba party with Latin professional dancer. Can't wait.

The Voices made me post. 

Hugs to all

Coming through the fog of chemo#7!  Went to the beach today to SUP (stand up paddleboard) - paddled ~90 min super easy!  Tons of jumping fishes and gorgeous weather here in SoCal - wish I could send it to all of you in the HEAT!

Ruth, I did not see your post earlier, hope your nerves and you are ok after accident. Still wishing your kitty comes back.

You go the things you do b/c you are special, special to us gals here and home.

I think the Voices will forgive us if we "skip" a day.....

Hugs

No kitty. Very sad.

I am OK. Slightly sprained wrist, little sore in the neck etc.

I want to be on paddle board in the cool waves too!

I imagine The Voices will force all of us who took the day off back in action tomorrow!

Me too!

Quick check in. Walked for an hour and 30 minutes toning with Denise Austin.

60 minutes Tapout XT Plyo. Seriously, this program is harder than P90X, which I did once before. I had to stop about 3 times during the worout because I felt like I was going to vomit. But, now that I am done, my legs are quivering and my endorphins are racing..... I feel great!

misswim   DD watched the promo video of Tapout XT and said "Mom - we need to get that!"     How often do you do the workout - is it too much for every day?  

hi ladies, walked this morning before it got hot, then did some mall walking.  Do I get extra credit for making DH come with me and buy a couple new shirts?

Going to do a firecracker 5K walk/run on July 4.  The race starts maybe a mile from my house and is on my regular walking route.  No advance sign up, just show up at 7:30 a.m. with ten bucks.  The first 100 people get a free t-shirt.  Fun!

Later this week, we're headed up to Green Bay to visit family.  I'd like to take a day trip to Door County and ride the ferry to Washington Island and hike around a bit.  http://washingtonisland-wi.com/

Sending happy thoughts and ((hugs)) to you all.  Have a great week ahead!

Hi Joy- It is ALOT for everyday. But it is meant to be a 90 day program to shock your body into shape, and then there is maintainance. The workouts are anywhere from 45-60 mins long and you WORK, I mean sweat before the warm up is even over and does not stop until the end, though there are water breaks. I am on day 5, I have dropped a pound, my muscles are all sore, all the time...... but I put on my bikini today for the first time in two years, and boy did it feel good!

My embarrasing moment was when an acquaintance who did not know I had been sick and has not seen me since I lost so much weight came up to me and said "Oh my, someone got a breast reduction!!!" To which I smiled and said "something like that." She kept on me......"how did you lose weight?" "What made you cut off your long hair?" and finally....."What possesed you to get THE reduction??" I was so flabberghasted at this point that I finally answered...."The 2 cm cancerous tumor made me do it....all of it!" She was horrified, I was relieved to get it out, and after an awkward moment she actually came over and talked to me about my experience, as she has a friend going through it now, and I offered to speak to that friend and be a support. So something good came out of the silliy conversation after all!

Hey gals,

I've been away for a while, life has been a bit crazy to say the least.  I am totally behind on all your threads, but look forward to reading up and being inspired by all of your wonderful achievements.

I had progression in my liver and bones (that's been 4 progressions now in the past 9 months, but I'm putting my head straight into the sand and pretending it is nothing).  I just started a new chemo and will need to dial down my expectations around how much I can exercise.  I've decided walking will be my new best friend (I soooo wanted to get back into running, but that's not gonna' work).  

I had a delightful walk with a friend today around a local lake, nearly 3 miles. Hoping to keep it up.

Nancyh, good for you. Doing what you can and knowing those limits is important. I am really sorry to hear of your progression and hope that your new chemo is gentle and effective. I also saw on another thread that you got a promotion. Good for you!

I left the triple digit NC heat for the mid-90s in Minnesota! We are staying across the street from a park so I've tried to walk almost every day. The B12 definitely seems to have helped a LOT. I've also been keeping up with my PT, although I've been lazy about morning yoga. Building up my arms carrying our granddaughter, though!

 We're talking about heading up to Duluth for a couple of days...never thought I'd have to leave Minneapolis in search of cooler weather.
