Let's Post our Daily Exercise

Walked the track at the Y for 35 minutes today. Didn't go too fast, but definitely made two miles, from counting laps.

What grade, Ruth? They have changed math so much with the common core, kids ask me for help, and I have no idea what we are supposed to do with all these grids and such. At least with the teens I can talk about how I would solve the problem, and not worry too much about doing it according to the system.

Thanks for asking Cheryl - Mikey is doing fine. (For our newbies here, Mikey's our extremely peppy, vocal Min Pin that some of the Sculpted Sisters here got to to meet a few years ago.) He's a hardy little thing. When he was dx with the nasty heart murmur in 2014, the vet cardiologist took one look at his test results and thought he'd be gone in a few months. But he's responded remarkably well to his meds, and at the last visit the cardiologist said some of his function had actually improved a bit. So we'll just take it as it comes. And of course he has no idea he's supposed to be slowing down - he's still a very silly sweet highly-energetic little dog.

Did some much needed stretching and foam roller work this morning. We have tomorrow off so plan on getting in a nice mid-week run.

YAY! JerseyGirl22.

Brother arrived and we walked around lake for a little after lunch. Now he's taking a nap (was on way to airport at 4am) then will walk him some more and stop for awhile in the square. Think we scared him with all the activities we are going to try and fit into one week!

Yesterday was two 15-minutes walks at work, today I did week 2, day 1 of C25K at the gym during lunch hour.

doc241, first, it's okay to complain as it's healthier than keeping it in and we are here for you. Second, doing Denise 10 or 20 mins a few times a week is awesome! Any amount of exercise is good and a lot more than many people do, so don't beat up yourself. This is a tough journey. Do what you can and you may find you can do a little more each time (and even if you don't, it's okay!)

11/10- 50 minutes of resistance training at the gym.

doc241, I think you are doing great if you work and do anything a few days a week after work!

However, I would tell you that a couple months ago, I got a Fitbit. Mine is a clipon called a Zip. $59.95 at Target, and I hear less on Amazon. I love it. It tracks your daily steps. it is so much fun to challenge myself to do more steps every day, or at least do as many as i can. The recommended daily steps is at least 10,000 steps. I rarely get there, but I try. I bet if you had one and you put it on when you get up and wear it until bedtime, you would be surprised how many steps you actually take during the day.....even at work. It all counts. Just an idea and it is fun! Exercise is moving!

Did 50 minutes of walking tonight. I need one of those fitbits so I can tell how far that is without counting laps. I forget to keep counting - apparently my attention span isn't that long.

Welcome doc, glad you signed on. Congratulations Jerseygirl. I am going to get myself another Fitbit, a clip on one, I have the HR but when I take it off to charge it I forget to put it back on Ibut i do love it when I remember to wear it. Patoo your sunset FB photos are gorgeous. Mary give Mikey a hug from me, he is such a pistol and glad to know he's doing well.

Tonight did Body Pump followed by U Jam.

I love my fitbit so much have bought a plastic waterproof pouch so I can take it into the pool with e since I'm walking/running when doing aerobics.

Took my sister and brother to watch the dragonboaters. We will probably train with them sometime in the next few months. Then took my brother to look at houses hoping to get him interested in moving down but he would need an act of God to convince his wife to even come down and look. Spent an hour in the pool this afternoon and now relaxing.

Night sculpted friends.

Woo-hoo Jerseygirl!

Gym today on top of PT. Yesterday was another 11 hour work day. One more week after this and we get break. Dec. is pretty quiet.

I'm looking a getting the Fitbit Surge. Hoping they drop the price after Thanksgiving. Dd wants my FitbitHR and I want the surge because it tracks other exercise besides just steps and I need cross-training.

Karen, hubby and I are in Breckinridge, until tomorrow! We have been walking a lot, I am fighting a cold now! Fly out of Denver tomorrow !

JerseyGirl, Congratulations!! You did it!!

Patoo, have a wonderful time with your brother !!

Kathy....Hope you had a wonderful time in Breckenridge. Lucky you, you got to experience spring, fall and winter during your trip!!! My son went up to Copper Mountain for opening day. Too bad we couldn't meet up. Safe travels back home.

Glorious early morning walk (5:45 am) in the snow!!! It was so peaceful and quiet. Wish I had more time, but had to get ready for work!!!

Outrunning, What a cutie!

Congrats on finishing chemo Jerseygirl.

Lilacblue, happy happy belated birthday! You are such an inspiration! I am sure you did great on the test.

Ruth, bet the Rick Springfield concert was a hoot. What fun!

Patoo, enjoy your time with your brother.

Annie, hope your surgery today went well and you have a smooth recovery.

Been busy over the last few days. Exercise Saturday was walking around a lovely winery to celebrate a friend's birthday. Sunday was housecleaning. Monday was bootcamp and yesterday, I took a rest day. Tonight was a walk/run workout on the treadmill.
