    Did 25 minutes on the stationary bike yesterday while watching the Figure Skating finals and ended up with 6.7 miles - .2 longer than I got while watching something else. So maybe I'll look for more upbeat things for the exercise time!

    That's what I try to do with the treadmill. I plan my walks around the evening news, or a basketball game - or read my latest magazine. Time and distance just glide by

    I hurt my ankle the other day so I took Thurs, Fri, Sat off of p90x (and it's hard to get motivated when I sleep all day and work all night) but spent an hour at the gym on Friday. Now I'm having a hard time getting off my butt to do today's workout. It's so much easier to find excused to not do it. That's why I hate taking days off! Also made cupcakes and a cake yesterday so that didn't help either.

    Here's to a new week full of motivation and healthy eating!

    Just did 7.2 miles - 27 minutes on the stationary bike. Having this thread helps keep me motivated, as I feel like I need to do something and report in. Others - how's it going?

    I did 2 miles yesterday on the treadmill - a mile in the morning, another after dinner. Then 1.5 today - in divided doses

    It's so easy now - since we bought the treadmill. And Douglas is using it quite often, also. He has a stationary bike - I don't like it as it bothers my knees.

    I was bad over the weekend - ate some things I should not have. Back with a vengeance today, though.

    I ran a mile at the gym today and did 30 minutes on the bike. Then tonight I did an hour of kenpoX.

    I did my 30 min on the treadmill tonight before coming home from work. I don't like the bike because it hurts my **ahem privates. I am getting started on the Eliptic thingy (I never can remember the name of it) and working my way up to 30 min on that. I have to admit that I can barely do 10 min, but in time I'll reach my goal.

    I'm down 3 pounds from last week. Come on everyone, we can do it if we stick together.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!
