Exercise and Water - Who's with Me?
Since my whole kidney stone drama back in June, I have been really neglecting my fluid intake and my exercise. Monday, I made the committment to get back at it (I reeeaaaalllllly want to lose these last 15ish pounds before my cruise in January).
Anyway, I'm wondering if there's anyone interested in keeping each other motivated and accountable. I did 2.2 miles on Monday and 2.5 miles today. Water --- well my intake still sucks. But I am sure got more today than I did yesterday... so that's a step in the right direction.
If you're interested, let me know!

Well, I do ok with exercise and pretty ok with water, but I'll hold you accountable with your stuff if you bug the hell outta me about vitamins. Deal?

I'd love to join. Those are the very two things that I just recommitted to getting better with myself!! And I also have 15 I need to knock off prior to pursuing plastic surgery. Well done on the walking!!
I walk/jogged on the treadmill for 35 minutes Monday and yesterday I did 35 minutes on this crazy wicked new machine at the gym that is like an elliptical trainer on steroids. I loved it! Also did weights with biceps, triceps, and chest press. I'm planning to do some abs this evening after the kid**** the sack. Might even get crazy and do a little Tae Bo.
My water seems to be MUCH better on days I exercise. Today I also sucked a bit with my water, but the night is young! I've decided I'm filling up a 2 quart pitcher each morning and that bad boy will be gone by night. I tend to need to add crystal light anytime I'm not drinking while exercising--still bugs my pouch this far out even. And don't even get me started about how hard it is to drink plain water in the morning!!
Nik, take your vitamins!!! I've got my talking pill box reminder working, so I'm doing pretty well on that front. I just am terrified not to take them. I feel dirty if I miss a dose. So I have done plenty of feeling dirty, but for the most part I'm okay. Now get to that pill box missy!!
Thanks for suggesting this!! Oh, and I LOVE cruising--have you been before? I have lots of tips if not!
Have a great night!

Start weight: 335 Current weight: 185 Goal weight: Whatever the hell I can maintain without driving myself insane!
I just don't have time in my schedule to drive to and from the gym right now; so, I've been walking/running in my neighborhood. Did 2.5 miles on Monday and Wednesday. Did a mile today (intended to do 2.5 again, but my sister pulled up and talked me into going to Big Lots).
Drinking Crystal Light as I type. I decided the same thing this morning about filling up the 2qt. pitcher!
Cruised 3 other times, but thanks for the offer!
If you Facebook, we should friend to remind each other. I'm already friends with Nikki.

Sounds good! Vitamins are the easiest thing for me (haven't missed anything in MONTHS)! Here's what I do.
I check my email ALLLLL the time (I am either by my computer or have my phone with me). So, I get an email alert from mymedschedule.com telling me what to take. I organize about 10 days at a time worth of medication into these: http://www.amazon.com/Storage-Stackable-Containers-Crafts-Findings/dp/B001AS6OLK/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1291562185&sr=8-10
Seriously effortless.
