Week 4
April 29th - May 5th
Monday: 60 minutes
Tuesday: 1 hour & 56 minutes
Wednesday: 30 minutes
Thursday: no exercise
Friday: 1 hour
Saturday: 1 hour & 11 minutes
Sunday: no exercise
Total: 5 days / 5 hours & 37 minutes
Reached 'Total Time' goal and reached 'Days Per Week' goal!
I feel like I did really well this week! I exercised more then I have in a long time. Most of my exercise was outside too which was great. On Monday Ryan and I went on a bike ride. Matt bought me a bike trailer a couple of years ago so I attached that to my bike so Abby could come along. It felt great being a bike again and getting some exercise in the process. On Tuesday Chelsie came over and we went on a walk with Ryan around the neighborhood. We tried to jog a little but walked most of the way. On Wednesday I did 30 minutes at DeAnn's house on her bike. On Thursday I was super sick so didn't do any exercise. On Friday I went on a walk with Abby in her stroller. I wasn't intending on walking for a full hour but by the time we got home I realized an hour just flew by. Chelsie came over again on Saturday and we did another walk around the neighborhood. I also went on a bike ride on Saturday by myself which was a lot of fun. Overall I had a lot of fun this week exercising. As far as eating goes I did really well! I stayed below my calories most days and allowed myself to indulge on Sunday as my reward!

So last night Chelsie, Ryan, and myself went for a walk/run (we walked most of the way since we are not at all runners but then towards the end we tried alternating between walking and running). We went 4 miles in an hour which I know is pretty slow but at least for me and how out of shape I am it felt really good. The only thing is today my back is killing me! Not sure if it's just cause I am not a runner or maybe my shoes? Hope some ibuprofen helps!

Feeling really good today! Yesterday I stayed under my calories and kicked up the exercise! Rode on a stationary bike at DeAnn's house for a good 30 minutes (I was sweating by the end, it felt so good!) and then later I went on a bike ride with my brother while pulling my daughter in our bike trailer for another good 30 minutes. I love summer and am going to try to either go walking or go on a bike ride outside as much as possible!

Occasionally I will post some of my facebook "posts" about my exercise. Here is one...
I am back! Last week I took a little "break" with the in-laws in town. I knew we'd be eating out a lot so I tried to eat healthy but let's be honest I didn't keep track of my food and there is a reason for that, lol. I did however do pretty good with exercising, we went to Thanksgiving Point Gardens on Saturday and walked around for hours and then yesterday Chelsie and I went to Salem Pond and walked around the little park for 40 minutes with a pretty good pace. But now I am back to my routine and will start keeping track of my food and STOP eating so much junk! Feels good to be back :)

Week 3
April 22nd-28th
Monday: no exercise
Tuesday: no exercise
Wednesday: no exercise
Thursday: no exercise
Friday: no exercise
Saturday: 90 minutes
Sunday: 40 minutes
Total: 2 days / 2 hours & 10 minutes
Reached total time (minutes) goal, did not reach days per week goal.
Last week was not the best week. Though I did reach my weekly total goal for minutes I only exercised twice the only week. Matt's parents drove out from California so Wednesday - Sunday were spent with them catching up, eating (way too much might I add), and just having fun. I did go swimming with Abby on Thursday which was a little exercise but mostly just playing so I didn't count it. I allowed myself to eat what I wanted but did try to stay within good portion control. It was a good chance for me to realize how much better I feel when I am eating healthy every day and exercising as often as I can. On Sunday Chelsie and I went for a good 40 minute walk around Salem Pond that felt great! She walks a lot faster then me so it was good for me to push myself. Chelsie and I are going to start trying to work out together more often.
Monday: no exercise

I kept my goal of not eating after 8pm and drank lots of water through-out the day.
