Hey all, checking in for the day. Things have been really stressful around work the past couple of weeks and I think this week is going to be another bi^#h! I was finally able to do my lunch walk today at about 3 PM and boy was it HOT! Today I had a difficult time trying to catch my breath...

Checking in before beginning my work week tomorrow. This past week has been the week from h#%! and this up coming week doesn't look to be any better. I did manage to walk every day last week with the exception of Friday due to being the only one in the office with a temp and I didn't even have...

Hey all, checking in after work. Hope everyone had a great weekend! Spent Saturday and Sunday at the pool and then decided I better walk the dogs, so I took them on a 1.3 mile walk Saturday evening after it cooled down some. Walked today at lunch and I think today has been the worst day since I...

Just checking in for the night. Hope everyone is doing well and staying cool. Walked my 2 miles today, but ended up doing it later in the day around 3 PM since I was the only one at work in the office today. I don't know whether it has been the heat and humidity or what, but I feel like I have...

Hi all, hope everyone is having a great day and staying cool. I debated on whether I wanted to do my lunch walk today as it is extremely hot and humid here. After I got off work yesterday, I ended up walking through part of an 800 acre cornfield with a walkie talkie talking to a pilot in an...

Hi all, checking in after my lunch walk. It was definitely HOT, HOT, HOT outside today and I thought a lot more humid today than yesterday. Used 5# ankle weights and carried 2# weights. I'll have to re-think whether to walk tomorrow, it is suppose to be the hottest day of the year with a high of...

Hi all, checking in for the night. It has definitely been hard getting back into the groove after having a long weekend off! I did manage to walk my 2 miles today in 94 degree heat. The only saving grace was I didn’t think there was too much humidity so that helped a lot! Would have preferred to...

Hi all! Checking back in after neglecting to post for a while. I just finished my lunch walk and find as time goes on, I have been trying to add some additional distance. Continuing to use my 5# & 3# ankle weights and then carrying 2# weights as I go. I think the weights have actually helped me...

Hey all, just checking in before bed. Sounds like everyone is doing great on their workouts and rest days. I decided to add weights and length to my lunch walk so today I wore 5# ankle weights and carried 3# dumbbells for the entire 2+ mile walk. It took me about an extra 10 minutes to finish...

Hi all, hope everyone is having an enjoyable Saturday! I weighed in this morning and lost 3.6 pounds this past week, maybe I definitely need to add some jogging into my lunch walk! Pam: Great job on doing Power Hour this morning! I just got that one in the mail the other day and haven’t had...

Finished my 2 miler and I am ready for the weekend to begin--3 more hours until quitting time. Hope everyone is having a great Friday! :p

Missed my afternoon check-in today--went for my 2 mile walk and mid-way through, the farthest I could possibly be from work I rec'd an ER call from home. Ended up jogging clear back to work and leaving around 2:15 today. Needless to say, the jogging has taken it's toll on my body this PM and...

Checking in from work again. Just finished my 2 mile walk and it was actually NICE with very little humidity!! Don’t know if I’m going to have time to work out tonight, but I’m going to try to do something, even if it is just stretching. Pam: Glad to have you back and so glad you were able to...

Hi all, checking in after doing Upper Body Pyramid. I managed to get through it, but I skimped on the ab section and definitely failed to do the pikes! I was able to walk my 2 miles today at lunch, but it was miserably HUMID! :confused: Elle: You should be around when I do my work outs, I...

Hey all, thought I would check in for the weekend. Weighed in Saturday AM and lost 2.2 pounds! Now my goal is to try to loose at least 2# per week and see how much I can lose by September 5th when my oldest niece is getting married! Didn't do any workouts this weekend due to family obligations...

Hi all, I don’t know about you, but I am ready for the weekend!!!! It has been a long week at work and I am ready to try to find some time for myself and relax! Sheryl: Great job on starting STS and making it to disc 3 so far! Like you, I was appalled at how out of shape I was, but it’s nice...

Checking in from work again. I haven't been feeling well so I didn't work out last night after my 2.5 mile lunch walk. This morning I felt bad enough to take 800 mg of Ibuprofen, which seemed to take the edge off, but still hurting. :( The weather is nice and hot with low humidity so now I’m...
