Hi all, I have been MIA again, but just been busy. But, I quit my really terrible job with the verbally abusive boss, so I should have more time to work out now. I did a long 2.5 hour stint at the gym on Friday, then I went for a 2 hour walk yesterday and an 1.5 hour walk today and am heading to the gym shortly to do weights. I also bought an elliptical machine at a garage sale on Saturday, so I will have that to use at home, I am excited about that.

Welcome back Julie.. We missed you around here.

Umm I haven't worked out in a while and I really wanted my arms to look more defined before the wedding. Hmm maybe I'll work out just before the ceremony,,, :-) think that will work.. lol

TammyM, you are so funny!!! I told my FI that I was going to have to work out or something while we were down there. Since we'll be there for a couple of days before the wedding, becuase I know I'm going to eat good for those couple of days before I put on my dress!!! That scares me.

I woke up this morning and went running. Did 2 miles. Really didn't want to, but made myself, since I go get my dress tomorrow! I also did some weights for my arms.

Glad to have you back Julie! Having cardio equiptment at home helps. We just bought a rower 2 weeks ago. It is so nice to know that I don't have to cart myself to the gym to get in good cardio.

Glad to see you Jules! I'm glad you got out of that horrible job and the elliptical is a great find!

Thank you so much for the warm welcome back guys. I actually worked out really hard today. I walked for 1.5 hours with a friend this morning, then I decided I would walk to the gym, it was a 45 min walk, then I did 1 hour of weights, full body, then walked home again. I am going to feel it tomorrow. lol

Good Job Jules, thats great!

You are back with a vengence!!!

I did 30 minutes on the rower when I got home.

Hey girls - I went on a 30 minute walk Monday, ran 2.5 miles and did 20 min. on the elliptical yesterday, and did a 30 min. abs class and ran a mile this a.m.

I keep going in spurts. I usually always work out on Mon, Tues and Wed....then sputter out late in the week...

You girls are doing great!!
