A Question For All

pixiechic said: "i had a tennis lesson on monday. it is an hour of drills and running. i play again later this week. i have been meaning to go walking, but the weather has been sort of icky. i couls use some time on the stepper or eliptical trainer.."

determinedtolose said: "I walk the treadmill everyday for 45-60 min a day. Sometimes twice a day. i strength train4-5 days a week for 45 minutes(takes me that long to work all my body parts). I will have to confess though....I did not do any of those tonight. I was pooped after cleaning my house. :o"

I feel like I want to make excuses and talk myself out of working out. I even justified to myself last night why I should have a bowl of Ice cream and I ate it too! :mad: I even did something this morning I said I was not going to do for a while...I got on the scale. I knew I should not have because it depresses the daylights out of me, but I did it anyway. Alright now don't laugh at me...I thought losing only 20 lbs in 6 weeks wasn't good enough. I know muscle weighs more than fat, but I guess I woke up this morning thinking I should be thin or something. :o Thank you again.... :)"

pixiechic said: "way to go! i have tennis today, so a nice little workout for overall conditioning. i also invested in a new pair of kicks for walking, along with a jumprope that seems like its too long. it is time to be fit, and lose this weight once and for all. no excuses.."

determinedtolose said: "I tell you...I have not worked out in 4 days and I am missing it too. I have managed to catch the flu. YUK! :("

Heather said: "Me! Me! :) I had my 3 hour martial arts class last night. Then another 3 hours on Wednesday. I have to have a day to recover..LOL!"

Heather said: "I am staying on track. It is almost time for my 2 hours of training. LOL."

cvalh said: "I haven't... Granted this is an excuse, but it was my week from heck at school. Lots of cleaning today, thought, and tomorrow I'm starting running again!"

cvalh said: "[QUOTE=UniqueMystique]Did you start today? :)[/QUOTE] Indeed I did. And I plan to go tomorrow too."

UniqueMystique said: "Be honest....how many of you have made an attempt to exercise this week?"

UniqueMystique said: "I've worked out every day this week and a few times I've even worked out twice in a day. :D"

UniqueMystique said: "Hmmmmm....4 people out of 278. *Shakes head* That's not very good statistics. How many of you used one of the 6 most common excuses this week? :("
