Does walking up and down the stairs alot count?

Not a snowballs chance in hell, no time, but soon I will be MAKING time fo sho!

I have been every day after work, shoveling snow. Not relieving any stress though.

Awesome everyone!!!

I am so happy the semester started back up so I can do the water classes again, but have been proud of myself for staying active during the break & the dogs have surely enjoyed the extra outings as well!

I have recruited 2 of the first year grad students to workout at least 3/5 weekdays @ the rec center after work. I do yoga 1 day as well. Amanda & I also walk/run the dogs and/or ride the horses on weekends!

It's gonna be a great year! Good luck with your run bella & your fights okami

I was thinking of buying me a turtle for a workout partner??
Anyone have one,,or try that??

I never work out, I think my lungs would collapse if I did.

Actually that is how I lost 40 pounds. I did not diet at all. I just changed my way of preparing food, watched what I eat, and work out on a regular basis. My weight hasn't dropped any more but I am losing inches.

That is what I am talking about Hard work and results I love to hear that


Too many time people try to take shortcuts to lose weight or inches but there is no short cuts just crappy ways of trying to cover it up,


I will tell you all HARD WORK & DEDICATION will not fail you in your weight loss and workout body goals

Exactly! And workingout u get alot of stress out. You feel better about urself.

Now I am planning on getting the lap band done on me next fall. I could have done it sooner i just did not wanna lose drastic weight and have all this loose skin. And i am not doing it for weight lose. I am doing it cause it is helping alot of severe diabetics! I have to take 5 insulin shots a day. And ppl that have got the lapband done r only needing 1-2 if any shots a day. I am looking forward to it!

Yeah I am so glad I finally convinced a doctor to run bloodwork and I am working hard to turn the IR around and prevent diabetes. I had a great workout @ water cardio tonight. The instructor for that class is the toughest, but my favorite because she's also the funnest.

I Run/Walk at the park and sometimes will hit the gym if I have the energy.

I do it because I feel good afterwords. Also, it's a form of clearing my mind and relaxing. The results on my body are a bonus.

It's not a routine, it's just random, but I do play soccer with the fam every Sunday as a hobby (and because it's freakin fun!).

The problem with the shortcuts is they don't work an can endanger your health.

I have a basset hound, when I lift weights at the house she will just lay there and watch me until she is so tired she falls asleep... which is after about 2 or 3 minutes...lol

I have worked out regularly nearly all of my life starting at 9 yrs old

I jog,swim,bike,weightlift and dance!t...to name a few...to keep in shape...not one to get stressed...and love doing it!

I walk my dog everyday until he get so tired that I need to carry him on our way back home he is old.
I do sit ups. 30 minutes or more everyday
Dance and do some twist, this really helps me relieve stress.
Jumping rope when I want to sweat out.
And finally a lot of smile.

Got to try some intro kundalini yoga this week in my regular class & also attended a guided meditation and energy therapy intro! Loved it all!!! Missed water cardio class monday so going today & plan to walk/jog the dogs at the park for 2-3 hrs on saturday with a friend:)

My nephew won his first MMA fight last weekend-YAY!

I do half a sit up in the morning (getting out of bed) and the other half at night (laying back)

So yes I exercise regularly!

I'm still walking several times a week. Lost 5 more pounds since the beginning of the year. 45 more to go.
