Let's Post our Daily Exercise

6 mile bike ride followed by Chinese buffet. Need to reverse that in future to justify being a glutton! Maybe make it to pool tomorrow after church if weather holds up.

Night sculpted friends.

Scottiemom, I love those pictures, particularly the one with the person dressed as a Christmas tree and the Elfin Bureau of Investigation. It looks like your DS had a good time!

Scottiemom- Cute pictures of your son, it looks like he had fun. You must have really enjoyed your vacation. We were off this week too, but I have been recuperating. We have enjoyed not being on a schedule, just relaxing.

HBCheryl- Cleaning a garage is plenty of exercise.

As an ex-retail employee I agree w/ closing stores on holidays. The holidays are hectic and stressful for everyone. It is important to remember the reason for the holiday, family and friends

Back home and at the gym. While I love my mini vacays on holiday weekends, there is no place like home and I can really only sleep well in my bed. Back to work tomorrow and looking forward to a normal schedule this month.

Fun pictures, Scottie!

Thinking of you tomorrow, Jersey.

Walked on the treadmill for awhile & did a 45 minute "Shrink Your Fat Zones" DVD. It is supposed to snow tomorrow, so the nice-weather-party may be coming to an end around here.

1 hour water aerobics this morning. Maybe bike ride later. Have to start doing some, other than exercise, activities. Find since I have so much time being retired that I have to keep busy in order not to sit around feeding my mouth.

Sounds like everyone who celebrated had a great Thanksgiving!

We enjoyed our week of being "unplugged" at the cabin. We had PERFECT weather except for the last day, which made leaving just a bit easier. We ran or hiked every day, including a Turkey Trot 5K bright and early on Thanksgiving morning. We washed all the cabin windows, inside and out, twenty-seven windows in all - most of them ceiling to floor. We also split some firewood so we should have enough for the wood stove for the rest of winter. Here was the view of the sunset view from our cabin Thanksgiving evening. We had sunrises and sunsets almost every day like that!

Got back on track this morning with a Power90 Sculpt DVD (weights, lunges, and squats).

Lovely picture. Yoga this AM, ran around doing Christmas shopping all afternoon & Zumba tonight. It was snowing like crazy when I left the YMCA, Very slippery too, blah!

Walked for 45 minutes at the Y tonight. Did not do the running thing since I had very little sleep last night. Did pass a guy who was like a foot and half taller than me walking around the track. I'm sure he's rehabbing something, but still it's nice not always be the slowest person there. My legs are so short, even when I'm really cooking, people lap me.

I am going to say it again - I so admire all of you who,live in cold climates and forge on and workout, it was 50 degrees here tonight and it was so hard to head out to the gym, like I said to my carpool buddy if I lived back east I'd be at home in my Jammie's watching the exercise channel, notice I said watching not doing .... I know myself

Cubbie you and I can be a team, I have short legs I'm always last in any race but I plod along. Mary gorgeous photo. Kathy I have avoided the scale, I accidentally knocked it and it turned on and I quickly turned away.

Tonight went to Zumba, and once again mixed in with the dancinghe threw in 4 sets of 50 squats and a 2 minute plank.

Cardio Sculpt this morning and Barre tonight. I also did about 45 minutes of Shovel & Sculpt. We had about 6 inches of heavy wet snow which is now blowing around & sticking to the roads as well. Patoo, you are going to have to think of something very vigorous to do to replace snow shoveling because it is sure A LOT of work!

ruthbru, yes, I will work on finding an alternative. As I remember I used to post about it but shovelling was not my problem, matter-of-fact I enjoyed doing it. My problem was the cold basically but more than that the ice. I was an absolute danger to myself and everyone else on the roads when I had to drive in it. I didn't want to retire and then be confined to home during the winter months when the roads were not clear down to the blacktop. Wimpy I know but it was not fun.

Lovely sunset Mary. . .we have already decided that we will stay at the Okefenokee cabin next Thanksgiving so can photograph the sunrise and sunset. Of course I have to get over the poison ivy/oak that hitched a ride home on my arm. Only I could get it through my longsleeved shirt. Uggg

At the gym determined to run up my steps since I have to take off a couple of days next week for lumbar epi and can't let my work Fitbit group get a March on me.

Scottie

Pretty sunset Mary. Patoo, I agree with you on the snow and ice.

Getting back on track after the holiday. Ran a 5k turkey trot Thanksgiving morning and spent the weekend cleaning and decorating. Plus lots of laundry. Went to bootcamp last night and took today as a rest day.

Got the Y and realized I forgot my gym bag, and had to drive back home for it. So I only got in 25 minutes of walking. They moved all the ellipticals and exercise bikes downstairs as part of the remodeling, and it is so empty up there now.

I'm sure there must be some kind of snow shoveling simulator we could design...
