I walked this morning (for about 30 min), and I'm so proud of myself. I needed to. Emotionally, it makes me feel so much better, and physically good too. My goal: to exercise at least 30 min Mon-Fri.

Hope your walking routine is still going...I walk everyday and it was tough as first but gets easier with time. You can do it!

Thanks Hopingtrying, motivation is hard. It's still my goal though

I identify with the motivation thing, today I changed into my gym kit before leaving house (normally change at the gym) so there was no going back. Maybe if you get your walking gear on it might have same encouraging effect?

Hi Prefab, that's a good idea and one I've heard before too. I've also heard of sleeping in your workout clothes so when you wake up it's easier.

Today I left for the gym, and forgot my iPod. I didn't want to go back (long story), so I drove to a nearby neighborhood, and just walked because it was nice out.

I'd like to clarify what I mean by exercise. I walk, and I do the gym thing - mainly classes but sometimes I do the machines. So, there's my clarification.

Thanks for the support

Oh hey Prefab! I just saw this. It's going ok, which ain't bad! I forced myself to go to Zumba at the gym today after not being there for 2 weeks. It was rough. But my goal is to go more often. I have been walking.

My goal for today is to go to the gym, my new gym, and exercise. Just do anything for ten minutes because I took a break for my move.

I walked today. Early. About 8:30am. I tried going to zumba after that but there were too many barriers: I was a little late, the parking lot was full, my motivation was waning. Tomorrow's another day, later's another time, yeah :P Perhaps I will go tonight. I plan on going tomorrow.

Hi Prefab, I'd say I like the classes the best. Zumba, dance, and strength class. I also want to try yoga again. I hated it before, but maybe a different teacher might help or a beginner class. When I use the machines, I do the elliptical, bike, and treadmill.

I've been walking to campus a lot instead of taking the bus. Not today though, it's all rainy and nasty out. I will be going to the gym Friday though

How's everyone doing?

My regime has ground to a halt first with back injury then heavy cold. I'm hoping to get back to it next week. Feeling very unfit.

I walked indoors for half an hour. So far I lost twenty nine pounds. My body fat went down too

I'm going swimming with my new bathing suit tomorrow. It's an indoor pool.

I paddled in the water for twenty minutes. I burned two hundred calories. I wish I had a waterproof Fitbit.
