Please post your exercise acheivements here and give support to others. It doesn't have to be traditional exercise either. For example, tonight I plan to weed eat my 2 acre yard with a very large gas powered weedeater that weighs about 500lbs (OK - not quite 500, but it's still pretty heavy!). That counts as exercise too. Today I just got back from a very brisk 15 minute walk on my work break. I walked fast enough to get to my target heart rate!

My Fil is in the hospital and we have been there constantly so I have not been able to walk for my excersise. But as soon as things are calm I plan to start a 5 mile walk every week day. I'll let you know when I do. I'll keep checking in on this one maybe it will keep me motivated. JAk You don't get to choose how you're going to die.

Anything physical activity except sitting on our butts eating bon bons (or typing posts here $\:\)$ ) counts. BFM Last edited by butterflymom; 07/23/07 08:13 PM.
