[scrappychik]

I havent decided what Im doin today, either treadmill or Total Body Workout w/ Gilad. Ill check back when Im done. Have a great day

[scrappychik]

Ok I did Total Body Workout yesterday AND today It was a nice change from the treadmill. I know I need to switch it up and do both cardio and weight training. I am shooting for 5 days per week cuz I never seem to get workouts in on the weekends. Hey, it's a start

[scrappychik]

TGIF! I did TBS with Gilad this AM. DH has to work late so I just might do a couple miles on the treadmill after supper too. Have a GREAT weekend Aija

[delynmonet]

Just stopping by to see your progress - you both are doing a great job - keep up the good work! . . . I have finally recovered from the dreaded flu that kicked my butt early this month - the night of the big NFL game nonetheless.

I still have the cold portion of it - but that too shall pass. Have a great weekend!

[scrappychik]

Hey Del! We're still plugging away. I was in a spot where I was just maintaining but I recommited this week and Im feeling good Sorry to hear you were ill, but glad you are feeling better now Thanks for checking in on us - its always nice to see your posts and encouraging words

[scrappychik]

Total Body Sculpt this AM!!! I know I said I would take the weekend off, but I was feeling so snacky last night (PMS I think) I needed to burn off some extra cals LOL Off to grocery to get some healthy LC foods and shakes

[Pcola Girl]

Hi you all may I join you here?
I use to exercise alot but now as I have aged and have all this arthritis its been hard to do any form of exercise except get in my pool and do water exercises. So when the weather permits I get in the pool or if its to cool I go to the Aquatic club and swim and do aerobics with a class there.
But that is all the form of exercise I get these days anymore, can't walk without alot of pain so its the water for me.

[scrappychik]

Of course you can join us, Mary!!

[scrappychik]

Total Body Sculpt with Gilad yesterday and today I am really loving this workout!!! I do need to get a few miles on the treadmill though. I will try to make time later-Im just too wiped out for now. Hope yall are sweating it out, too. Be a great day

[scrappychik]

[scrappychik]

WOW!!! I was really on a roll but then came down sick with the flu and it hit me HARD I am STILL coughing but I was determined to get back to my exercise this week. Yesterday I did 1.5 miles on the treadmill and today I did Total Body Sculpt. It feels good to be back. I have been LCing but havent been serious and I know I need to get strict if I ever want to get to goal. I can do it!!!!

[scrappychik]

Another 30 minutes with Gilad

[delynmonet]

Just stopping by . . . I haven't been doing much lately in the Treadmill exercise department as my elderly mother became ill (ICU, etc.) and have been running back and forth to the hospital. It was a touch and go situation . . . but, I brought her home on Tuesday evening - so, there's a little relief going on - she's being monitored carefully.

I wanted to check in to see your posts . . . keep up the good work!

[scrappychik]

Thanks Del! You are such a sweet friend Im so sorry to hear your Mom is ill, but glad you have a bit of relief and she is improved for now. Remember to take care of yourself, too

[scrappychik]

Okay, my 10/10 Callanetics DVD arrived and I tried it out. I am worn out!! It's much more challenging than I imagined. Gonna keep doing it though

[shutterbug]

Hey...Can I join you?
I am sort of a vetran...I've been lurking in LCF's for a couple of weeks now and need to make myself known again. It's been about 2 years since I've visited LCF seriously...
My trouble is I HATE to exercise...As my profile says I am currently at 145. I did get down to 130. I'm so ashamed...
I have to travel alot too and it really throws off any type of routine I start
Anyway, I am sick and tired of being sick and tired and I need some encouragement...Help....Shutterbug

[scrappychik]

Hey Jenny! I would love to have you join me What kind of exercise do you think you'll do? If you read through the thread you know I was doing only treadmill for months but recently Ive been trying some other things to change it up. I have been stuck in the upper 140s now for too long. I would love to hit goal by my birthday in June. We have similar stats and it will be great to help each other. Just do what you can and check in as often as your schedule allows.

[scrappychik]

Happy Easter!! I completed my 2nd hour of callanetics last night-Whew! Today is a rest day for me.

[shutterbug]

Thanks...I sent you a PM with some detalis...
I guess I am kinda shy.

[scrappychik]

Thanks for the message, Jenny! I just finished my 3rd hour of Callanetics-Whoo hoo!!
I am up a couple pounds today but I know it's from eating ham the last couple of days (so salty ) and also after doing spome reading, I discovered it is not uncommon to see scales go up after starting Callanetics. Im not worrying...YET I am going to go back to induction today. Ive got to get back to clean eating as well. Wish me luck.

Aija & Mary-are you guys still working it?

[scrappychik]

Okay Day 1 on Induction went well. Onto Day 2... I already did TBS w/ Gilad and had fried eggs for breakfast. I did well with water yesterday(80oz) and am drinking water as I type Ive just gotta get the remainder of this weight off. Everyone keeps telling me I look great (DH tells me constantly ) but I know I am NOT yet in the healthy range for my height and frame. I am doing this for ME, no one else Also want to note: I have probably done more exercising in the last 6 months than I have my entire life! I am no longer a lazy girl-Whoo Hoo!!!!!

[shutterbug]

Hi Lisa...
I am still very much the lazy girl...
I let things pile up and then I don't have time to exercise.
Today I had to sit down and figure out what was wrong with my computer....
Took a FEW...hours. Not time that I wanted to spend on that; let me tell ya.
Anyway enough of my babble
How in the world did you get so motivated to exercise? I would love to get that way. I know that it would take just a little bit of effort for me but...I'm lazy.
My goal is 120...I don't know if I told you but I was down to 130 just by dieting with Atkins. That's not going to work anymore.
I have however done a few stretches and some weights in the past couple of days....
OK...the day is still young in my part of the world so....I"ll just do it.

So sorry for my ramblings..See ya tomorrow....Jenny
Ps...What is Callanetics?

[scrappychik]

Hey, Jenny Believe me I NEVER thought I would like exercise but it just happened. I started walking on my treadmill when a friend on another thread wanted to start and I said Ill do it if you will and Ive been pretty consistent since. I am REALLY liking Callanetics cuz its not cardio(still not my fav)but more stretching and small pulsing moves that make a BIG difference in reshaping your body. If you want to check it out, heres more info CALLANETICS CHALLENGE MARCH 2008
I did another hour of Callan this AM AND my scale showed 145.5!!!! This was Day 3 on my reinduct and Im glad the water weight is going bye-bye Last week I was weighing as high as 153 Have a great night. BB in the AM.
