Praise Report
Hello everyone,
A few weeks ago i sent out a cry for help!! I was gaining and it was really get the best of me. Well I started walking on my 10am and 2pm breaks at work which averages out at 2 miles. Then hubby and I walk the trail after dinner and now we're up to 3miles on the trail with fast pace walking and jogging. Well i've finally seen the scale MOVE! i was 162 on the day i sent my desperate email which was about a week and a half ago i'm down to 157.5 now. I know the gym is great, however dont count out walking...its still a great form of exercise! I also cut out sweets, and diet sodas never did regular sodas. Now i drink the diet green tea, and water. I hope i can get out the 150's altogether!! Thanks again for your support and encouraging words!

walking rocks! I never discount the time I spend doing it, because it's something I can enjoy with friends and family - well, moreso than running since not everyone is a runner.
Congrats to you! Keep up the good work!

Way to go!! I too love my walks and would be lost without the 'me' time that guarantees me. I walk 30 minutes every day at work during lunch but instead of calling it phsical activity, I log it under "mental health".
keep up the great work and keep moving forward!

Congrats and thanks for the reminder. I go to the gym 3x a week and I need to do something to encourage my daughter with her weight. I usually don't feel like going back to the gym, but I am going to make it a point to just get out and walk MORE even if I've already done the gym.
May God bless us in all of our endeavors. May He forgive us for our frailties and our vanities and bless us to be prosperous in health, soul, and in life.
