Elle, Good to hear from you. I was so shocked when I finally got back to this check in and found that no one had been posting. I think that is a shame and really hope everyone comes back as the weather warms up. Glad you are keeping up with yoga and weight watchers. We had a new fitness...

I'm surprised no one has checked in at all so I am wondering if everyone has gone to a different blog post. Well, I have been keeping up with my lunch runs and can pretty much go 2.25 miles in about 26 minutes. We have added in a variety of weights to work our arms, abs and legs doing 20 reps 5...

Hey all, it's Christmas Eve and I am pleased to say that I haven't put on a lot of weight over the holiday season. Just finished weighing and I have only added 1.2# from my lowest weight so I am pleased with that. Now, I just have to get back into my routine after the new year although, I am...

Hi all, it's been a while since I have been able to check in to see what has been happening. I am still running between 2 1/2 to 5 miles every day at lunch and I did manage to compete in the Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving morning. I must say, that felt like the longest flipping 5 miles I have ever...

Checking in at the beginning of the week to see how everyone is doing. I have finally managed to work up to running 3.64 miles and I think we are going to try to push the distance a little further every couple of days to try to reach that 5 mile mark before 11/25. I've been trying to do...

Hi everyone, checking in at the end of the week. Managed to jog my entire distance today without stopping for the very first time, abet, it was slow, but each step I took moved me one step forward so I'm not complaining! Now, I just have to work up to doing the entire distance twice so I can be...

Hey all! It has been a while since I last checked in. Since the weather has cooled down some here in Ohio things have been going hot and heavy with my lunch walks - we increased our distance to 2 3/4 miles and now I have been jogging almost the entire distance trying to get ready for a "Turkey...

Hey, just checking in to see how everyone is doing. I have been going out and hanging door hangers or work the past several days, so I have missed out on my lunch walk, BUT I have been walking up and down very large hills going from house to house and have been walking anywhere from an hour to...

Hi all, just checking in before bed. I weighed in this morning and lost 2.6#! Finally, I was beginning to worry about getting over the hump as I hadn't lost anything the past two weeks! Elle: Great job on losing 2.8# - keep up the great work! I am still excited about my yoga class coming up...

Hi all, checking in with my workout. Several weeks ago I upped the amount of weight I am carrying to 5#'s and today with the humidity, I really feel it! I was feeling spirited last night so I decided to ride my bike up to my parent's house. I hope everything is gong well with everyone and I will...

Hi all; hope everyone had a great weekend! I really enjoyed my weekend- went to an FOP picnic and I got to see a lot of friends I haven't seen in years. I have to admit, I am so glad I have been working out - saw some of these people and I didn't recognize them due to the weight they had gained...

Finished reading all of the posts I missed out on over the past couple of weeks. Sounds like everyone is doing GREAT with their workouts and either losing weight, improving on strength and/or seeing a difference in their clothing. Has anyone pre-ordered any of the new DVD's? I was reading about...

Hi all! It has been several weeks since I have checked in. I haven't had a chance to read all of the posts I have missed, so I will plan on doing that this evening when I get home from work. I've been keeping up with my lunch walks/jogs every day and have even completed two a days on several of...

Hey all! It's been about a week since I last posted. Since then I have been keeping up with my lunch walks and have incorporated more jogging into the walk so that it is about 50-50. About killed myself several times, but I find the longer I keep up with the jogging, the faster I am able to...

Hi all, just checking in before the weekend starts. Work has been hectic and very busy, although, I have been able to take my lunch walks with the exception of yesterday. Today felt like I was walking through the inferno fires of hades so I cut it short, but still got in about 20-25 minutes of...

Checking in after being gone for several days. I see that Cathe has several new DVDs coming out, but I haven't had time to check them out. I've been walking, bike riding and swimming since the swimming season is rapidly coming to an end. I've been trying to work on my "core", but that hasn't...

YEAH!!! It's Friday!!! Checking in for the evening. I didn't do my lunch walk today, but I got a wild hair up my bottom last night and decided to see if googlemaps.com really gives the correct distance from my house to my parent's house. So, when I came home from work I decided to walk it with a...

Hi all, checking in for the evening. I didn’t do my lunch walk because the heat index was up around 100 this afternoon. Ended up eating a cream-filled donut this afternoon and then feeling really, really, really miserable and guilty by the time I came home! :mad: Decided I was only making things...

Checking in for the night. Did my lunch walk today - it was a bit more humid today than it was yesterday, but at least I got it out of the way. Yesterday I tried to jog the last 2/10 of a mile and ended up having to ice my knee last night so no more running for me for a while! Elle: Glad you...

Hey all, just checking in after working a week in hades. Was able to keep up with my lunch walks all week with the exception of Friday. We have been having heat advisories for the past couple of days. It was so hot and humid on Thursday that I really had to push myself to finish and I kept...
