Time to move my muscles! That phrase gets a lot less backtalk than the excruciating "E" word - exercise! Jezzie started a thread on a chap who lost 90# walking in his backyard. What a concept! Got me to thinking how safe and smooth my parking lot is (except for the speed bumps I'm easily able to circumvent at my current rate of speed - hobbling on a hinky hip) and how nearby and private it is for most of the time. Handy!

Good thread, Jezzie! Backyard walking for weight loss. Some of us are too shy to hit the bricks, too shaky to try a treadmill. ...

So far so good.... today I am celebrating 20 pounds gone so far... lots more to loose so just a step in the overall plan... but low carb is doing me good! losing inches and feeling better more energetic and blood pressure is down so I have been able to lower my meds already. I am getting back into the groove of exercise and enjoying life alot more.

Now on to the next 10. Good luck everyone.... keep focused and give it your best... that's the only way it works... no cheating.... keep it clean and you will see victory in time.

Took the day off work to get ready for the trip to La. Went to the gym this am for weights and cardio 5 cross trainer) since I didn't do anything yesterday and over ate.

The cross trainer was very much like the elliptical. It stands a bit different, but still the same or more of a cardio work out. I also added the triceps weight machine.

Didn't weigh in this am. Will do it tomorrow before leaving so that I can track how I do on vacation. I'll use parents scale, but it will be different. i can at least track if I go up or down based on their scale.
