It's my new thing... now if I can only figure out what to give up for lent....

Great job! As soon as the weather gets a little nicer here, I figure my dog will be my reason to walk. I feel bad she's been couped up all winter so I will force myself to walk whether I want to or not.

Hey, I'm only about 10 minutes ahead of you then LOL. I haven't been doing anything so my little step routines have been an accomplishment for me. I hope noone is looking out there windows at me LMAO (I do it in the back parking lot at work.)

It could be a whole new exercise fad. "And bend and peel, and bend and peel" Why not? Cuz-I'm with you right now unfortunately. I have got to get back into my Y routine! I was going at least 4 times a week, sometimes 5 for an hour of pilates or an hour Zumba class. Now I'm doing nothing!

Now THAT is a great idea. Power walking through the store grabbing peelies! Sounds like a plan for me.

I walked 40 minutes this morning. So gorgeous in Alabama today!

That means I earned two WW points for tonight! Yum...

We are having Amy's indiv pizza and salad. Can't wait. (it's 10 points but I've been pretty frugal this week)

Great job!

I walked around CVS for 1/2 hour bending down to find their clearance makeup. That counts as squats right??

I'm in! I am feeling so blah this winter, being cooped up inside. So I am going to uncover the treadmill in the basement, and go run while DS is napping!

Also, we finally got DVR again (yay!), so I can record my favorite exercise show: Denise Austin Fit & Lite (I sometimes turn down the sound when her perkiness gets on my nerves, LMBO).

Thanks for the invite coz I defintely need this challenge. Beginning today, I'll dance if it's raining, I'll walk the dog if not. Now setting the timer to go off in an hour :D

Great challenge!! I will try to up my exercise time!!:hectic1:

[MamaVader]

I'm in. I walked a mile yesterday, then nothing today. So apparently I need a little more accountability. :) So starting tomorrow, I will walk at least a mile every day.

Great job everyone. Keep up the good work.

Question for anyone who has used an at home stepper. I bought one of those steps from Walmart that come with a basic step DVD, but my house is all carpet with the exception of the kitchen, so it kind of slides forward when you step up on it. I'm afraid I'm going to fall off.

I dont feel like spending $50 for a mat to put underneath so I bought one of those yoga mats, kind of styrofoam(spelling?) material, hoping that will keep it from sliding, but I haven't tried it yet. Anyone else done this or have an idea?
