Good Exercise Week

I have been very busy this week, and did not post as well as I should...

The good news is I earned over 20 activity points this week. My two hour crazy hike I wrote about Sunday (Santa Rosa Plateau) and 3 different days on the tread, where I walked for an hour at a brisk pace...

I have found that I enjoy watching a music video or movie while walking on tread...it really helps get my mind off the walk and onto the song...hard to get the pulse right but I am more about getting a habit of walking...I will worry about the pulse next week...I bought a fan too....I am a whimp, I need my comfort!

The pedometer has been a big help..it keeps me honest and motivated and I get ticked when I don't have it attached right on my hip and its not recording...this happened after an hour on the tread...I was REALLY upset...the numbers in miles really makes me feel good about myself...

I bought some light weights and an exercise ball from Walmart. That is my goal next week....Something tells me it will not feel nearly as good as the walking did...I am going to go look for an exercise CD this weekend as well....

I have to believe in me....and I have to be honest....Losing this weight is for ME to feel better and to look better. This is for my family as well...mom needs to be around to live, love and laugh with through life...I am going to give it my best shot, for myself, and for them!
