Fitness Fun - January 26

Well, happy hump day!! 

Today is my long work + school day so won't be workin out today at least not my body...my mind...well, yah, marathon day today...lol

How's it going with you all? How's this week in fitness going? Anything new and challenging? 

What would be the 1 thing you can say about what being "Active" has done for you? If you cannot keep it to 1...lol...like me....lol....just shout out all you can. Here is your PSA time...

Have a great day and I'll check in later...(now off to finish my paper that was supposed to be done yesterday but is due in 8 hrs...lol...)

Okay, I've been feeling cruddy the last few days, but today I am going to fight it and get out there and run and eat healthy!!

I will update later. :)

I vow to at least do the Wii fit today!!! I WILL DO IT!
I have 4 papers that were due Monday though that I have been working my tushie off..... There just does not seem to be enough time in the day.

Curves already this morning.  I leave tomorrow morning for Nashville for a conference and won't be home until Sunday night.  I'm sure there is a gym at the hotel but I'm not sure I will get there. 

My main reason for surgery was to be able to be more active and do the things I really wanted to do but weight was keeping me from them.  I have continued my curves routine and wii and the ponies when the weather allows.  I don't take any daytime pain meds for my arthritus anymore and have less pain than when I did.  I have cut my evening dose in half.  I'm thrilled with the activity level I can have now and only expect it to continue to improve as I lose more weight and get stronger.  Surgery has given me my life back and being active is what life is about for me.

Tonight is my pilates class and I will spend about 45-60 minutes on the treadmill.

Being more active has helped to improve my mood, energy, and self-esteem. In addition, with the weight training, I am becoming stronger with each passing week. The skin is still saggy, but I feel some muscle underneath. I am just so happy to be feeling better. The first couple of months were rough.

I took my fur-kid to a new park next to my house and we walked the track for an hour. I keep saying I will start exercising but today I just got up and did it. I must say I feel fabulous as a result.

Good afternoon! I have been CRABBBBBBBY all week. Stressing about my weight, money, relationships....pretty much everything and I can't get out of this funk. Poor people around me are getting their heads bitten off about everything so I woke up bright and early to go for my 3 mile run and it was so difficult today. Ended up doing 2.5 miles instead and came home in an even worse mood then when I left. BUT being active has made me feel like I can accomplish things. A year ago I couldn't walk without being winded and now I can run/jog for 45mins? Huge accomplishment! 

I am doing a minimum of 30 min cardio today...probably a dvd.

Overdid it last night with the stability ball and mat work...so may put that off until tomorrow night.

Y'all are doing great!!

Hooray! I got in a 3 mile run today and it felt really awesome. I might also go to the gym tonight to start an arm weights routine.

Hi everyone:

Greetings from the DR! Ran this morning again, but had a scary emergency towards the end with my tummy being very uncooperative. Trust me, you don't want those details...

But took care of things, and kept running!

Later, my roomie gave me a private water aerobics lesson in the ocean. Then, as the sun went down, went for another 500m swim in the long-course pool. It was another great fitness day! Here's hoping that I can return from vacation fitter than when I got here!

I love being active because I know that as time passes, I get healthier and healthier. That trend feels wonderful.
