I have been doing LC since January and in April I started to move. I started slow by just walking my dog and now I'm walking a mile a day (M-F) and then doing exercise tapes at home. Tomorrow will be the end of the 8th week of doing all this.

I didn't realize this site had gym logs so I am amped to post what I do here.

The tapes I do are Firm fanny lifter and Core Secrets ball workouts. I also throw in Windsor Pilates, abs of steel, and a couple other stability ball workouts. Now when I suck in my stomach it actually moves! My weight has stayed constant but I have lost 6.5 inches since the end of March.

I have had a sore lower back for the past two days so I have only walked. It is finally feeling better today. It really sucks to have a sore back, it makes you realize how important it is!

1 mile walk and an Abs of Steel video. My abs are very sore! But that's a good thing, it means I have ab muscles under the fat!


I only did ab exercises because my back is still a little twingy, but much improved from Friday.

Just finished my exercises, a 45 minute total body ball workout. No walk today because my car is in the shop and I can't get to the park!

My back is much improved and I think the exercises I'm doing will help it a lot too.

Walked 1 mile today and finished the whole 62 minute tape of the FIRM complete aerobics and weight training! I didn't fast forward once, now that's improvement!

I was just checking out your journal and wanted to say "hi" WTG on doing the Firm tape all the way through! I laughed when you said you didn't fast foward, that is what I do too! When I started working out, the scale didn't move much either, but it's been 3 months and it just started going down. Keep up the awesome work!!

Thanks for stopping in Amy.

I didn't post yesterday but I did do my walk and an ab ball workout.

Today I walked my mile and did half a FIRM workout, I'm feeling really sluggish due to TOM coming up.

I forgot...today marks 9 weeks of exercise every weekday!

Monday - Walked for a mile and a half, brisk paced.

It's my sons birthday today! He is 13! We walked for just under a mile today. No weights yet I hope to get some in later.

Didn't get any weights in yesterday, but I did today! Walked my mile and did a 30 minute ball workout. 10 min upper, 10 minute abs/back and 10 minute lower.

Only got to walk 1/2 mile before the rain came. At least it's bringing cooler temps! ALso did an Abs of Steel segment.

I walked for 2 miles today! It felt good, my breathing capacity is definately getting better. No huffing and puffing! Then I did a 45 minute Core Secret whole body ball workout with weights. My legs are feeling it today!

Good for you starting a gym log! Your progress pic looks great too! Keep up the good work!

Thanks IdahoSpud, encouragement goes a long way with me, so thanks.

Walked 1 mile today and did 25 minute Core Secret ball workout.

Right on! Stay with it - the journey is as much fun as the destination! Enjoy that part too! Mark
