Paula Bee Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 Okay.. I did it.. I walked.. voluntarily, not like the power walks between the connecting flights at the airport. (Those were 30 minutes walks, too,) so that makes 3 already this month. I am at my mom's in Baton Rouge for 3 weeks, and I forgot how beautiful it is here in the spring. The sidewalks were edged with flowers.. roses, gladioli, tulips.. more.. the smell was so wonderful. I heard birds singing as they built nests in the trees, (or tended baby birds,) It is deep south here, with the wide front porches with rocking chairs.. It was a wonderful walk..37 minutes. I had sweat running from my eyebrows into my eyes, chapped thighs, and took an hour to cool off. Did I like walking? No.. hurts.. my knees are killing me, so I am taking my pain management doctor's advice and taking my percoset so I don't associate pain with exercise. Did I like the view? yes.. enough to do it again tomorrow. Oh, I cannot take credit for the extra 7 minutes that I walked; I got lost and it took me that long to find Mom's street again. :lb25: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paula Bee Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 Oh, yeah.. I want the bronze level. (I thought Platinum might intimidate all of you, so I am giving you some slack.) LAFFING Exercise makes me weird like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive been really discouraged latley bc i havent lost anything in three weeks, and as I know i need to work for my band (which i feel like i have been-eating wise at least) still havent moved the scale..maybe its broken! haha jk! Sooooooooo i havent worked out yet..but I still have time to meet my goal for this month. I was sitting at work this morning reading through the posts and just being so proud of everyone on here for actuallly getting active- that it made me pretty disapointed in myself! sooo long story short- i have been pretty lame the past 6 six days, but will post later tonight what i did... bc im going to do something! Okay, girlfriend! If I have to do this, so do you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paula Bee Posted May 11, 2008 Report Share Posted May 11, 2008 No walking for me today (Not that I minded not exercising, but I was trying to be consistant.) I did something to my knee yesterday, and it hurts miserably today, despite the pain meds. I am icing it and hoping for tomorrow, even if it is for just 15 minutes or something. (Is getting sweaty worth it for just 15 minutes?) ACK! Did I say icing? Chocolate maybe? I would have to lick my knee...

WAgal Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 Okay, finally I've got my elliptical machine assembled and working! Yay, but only did 20 mins. May 12th. I will try to get on again later today, just had to let you guys know that I'm aboard! You guys have been making me feel sooooo behind with all this exercising you're doing. It's very motivational and bringing out the competitiveness in me which is just what I need! Hope you all had a nice mother's day celebration!
