The "Get More Active" Club!
Like it or not, it is already a week since our last update...so here goes. I don't have anything to report for anyone else, so it is just me this time.
Jeanette: On Tuesday, I walked for 30 minutes on the treadmill, and it was quite a workout! As I mentioned several months back, my treadmill is not working right. I cannot control it manually except to slow the speed down, so my only choice is to pick one of the preset workouts and let the thing go! I picked the first workout today, and it just ran away with me! It tilted up to an 8 percent incline and had me jogging! I slowed it down, but that incline took its sweet time to come back down, and there was nothing I could do about it! I had to step off to the side two times for a minute each time in order to make it through, but I felt like I REALLY pushed myself, so that was good.
On Saturday, I tried a different auto setting called "Light Jog." That sounded a lot scarier than the Tuesday one, but was actually much better because the incline never increased, and so when it got too fast, I just slowed it down to a more comfortable pace. Even so, it was fast enough to really get my pulse going. I might save that incline one for another day -- a long time from now! (I have to be honest, the only reason I got on the treadmill on Saturday was because I had to give this report.)
So that is it for this week... I have to admit it feels a little lonely on here these days, so I hope one of you will soon join this little Get More Active club!

Good for you Aunt Jeanette!
I promise I'll try harder this week!! :(
Hi Andrea! Some weeks are just impossible, so let us hope for a better one next week. I'm not sure my exercise has made any difference on my weight yet, but if I can keep it up, that will be good for me, I know! I hope you will be able fit some in, too! :)
Sonia came for just 24 hours and we consumed a lot of calories since then.But I 'll get back into my routine pretty soon.
Keep going gals.
Thanks for your encouragement Amrita!
I need it. I am sure 24 hours was not long enough for you to visit with Sonia! I hope you had a wonderful time.
