WED: No time to exercise?
A lot of people TRULY are stretched thin. I found an article that gives unique ideas for moving even when you are strapped for time:
25 Ways to Exercise When You Barely Have a Minute
So how did you move today - even if it was just climbing the stairs or walking from the back of the parking lot - how did you make an effort to move a little more?
Me? I am on the JUST DO IT plan and it's working!!! Every time I want to whine, I think about Kristy, Renee, Kelly, RP, Tim, Tonya, Lorri, etc, and how you all don't quit. Then I just can't find any more excuses.
Yesterday:
--Skied for 1.5 hrs. It hurt, but we stuck to the bunny hill and I took it slow
--Very brisk 30-minute walk (5 of it running) outside with the dog
--15 minutes elliptical and 15 minutes treadmill (5 of it running)
Today I plan on 15/15 elliptical/treadmill and then a 30 minute walk

Elena,
WOW, you did awesome........I truely believe exercise is the KEY to loosing weight.....I'm sure you will see the scale move again as you do more exercise.....
I'm surrounded by the flu.....My tummy feels a little weird today so I may take it a little easier today with the workout, I don't want to get run down.....So, I will go on the treadmill twice today, 30 minutes each time.......
Have a great day being healthy........Kelly
I figured I'd edit now.....I just did my 1st treadmill workout for the day, 1.591 miles and burned 302.4 calories......But I'm shot....I really think I'm getting the flu....I'm going to go lay down.....Hopefully I can get my 2nd workout in later.....:)

Well, my day started out 45 minutes late- but I still made it to the gym!! I did 25 min. on the treadmill, 20 m in. on the eliptical and 10 minutes on the bike. No time to lift weights, had to get to school.
I did park farther away from the entrance than normal, so got a little extra walking in.
Tomorrow is another day!
