Mon and tues I hit the treadmill. I didn't do anything over two miles because I was reading and studying while I walked. I'm making the best of my time damnit. Today I did a kick boxing blast routine and I am going to be sore. I'm glad I didn't use the heavier 10 pound hand weights the 20lb medicine ball was enough. Also, did some squats. I'm rocking some muscle in my arms, calf, and butt... Now if I could deal with the thighs and belly I'd be a happy lil camper. Ahh it will come with time. Off to make breakfast!

I had an orientation session at my new gym today. It's very small but it's got all the gear and it's women only. It's also incredibly cheap (relatively speaking). I wasn't expecting what I got - an hour and a half workout, covering resistance training, free weights and cardio. I'm going to ache tomorrow! I'm also going back on sunday. I want to be fit again!

My girl found a wonderful website to track your progress & even track your exact route when you run/walk to calculate the exact mileage. www.mapmywalk.com Last night I power walked for 1hr 15minutes.

Been in a wheel chair for a little over a month now due to reconstructive foot surgery- I am used to eating whatever I want(loads of ice cream and bad stuffs) and not having it bother me due to an active lifestyle and job as a server(at a place with lots of ice cream). I could tell I was gaining weight, but wasn't paying attention and now find I am really unhappy with where i am. Getting the cast off today, and will find out just how much I can exercise with a boot. If anyone knows any sites with a good exercise plan for someone in a boot, that focuses more on the losing weight and toning, and isn't just about rehabilitation I would love it. Also one for younger people. No offense to anyone, but I know my body can be put through a lot more stress then someone who is in a wheelchair due to age related problems. Also starting to diet... going on 3 days following it, which is a record for me!

I just went to MapMyWalk & mapped a .7 mile walk for myself. I plan to get out & do it later this afternoon. Right now I'm taking my owie hips back to bed. I had Pain & Torture yesterday & I'm feeling it today. When I got my casts off & was able to get out of my wheelchair, one of the things I did was go to the local community center & swim as often as I could. I also took a water aerobics class. Can you take the boot off & get in the water, tltl?

I don't know why I didn't think of that, I do have access to a pool- thank you for putting it in my head! Now I know what I am doing tomorrow.

On top of the boxing body blast I did two miles with the dogs and 1 mile at school getting to and from my car to class. Today is my off day. I have kicked up my metabolism though and I am finally back to eating small regular meals.

I tried one of those myoplex shakes. Not terrible, but muscle milk puts them to shame.

impishlilhellcat -> RE: The NEW and IMPROVED* CM Biggest Loser/Health and Fitness Thread! :D* (9/1/2011 11:27:22 AM)
Yeah, but muscle milk has a lot more calories I do believe. Muscle miilk is good if you are lifting. I'm not at least not till I lose tha belly

Im guessing you drink the smaller version. The smaller muscle milk has about 220 calories.

I really don't mind the french vanilla and it works really well because I have back to back classes so I can just pop one open in class and be good till I can eat.

I went to downtown Chicago today playing tourist & I walked a whole helluva lot. I was able to find some very reasonably priced lightweight walking shoes & I felt like I could walk all day!! I love feeling my body move again. I was so afraid that I would be crippled & not able to walk anymore. It's a joy to be able to do this!!! I have no idea how much we walked today but it was a lot more than I ever thought I could do again & the pain didn't really bother me until late this evening when we stopped in at a munch & I had to stand for awhile. I mapped a walk around my neighborhood, which is a pretty good neighborhood for walking. There are a lot of streets that have little traffic; it's very residential here. I believe that I will begin to drop weight again now, as well as getting my body into much better shape. When I did this before, I was able to drop 50 lbs so easily. I'm sure that I will do it again. Especially since I've already dropped 20. I'd be so happy to see the scale under 200 again!!!!

And if you live in a major city you can see the city while you do it.

Yes, I do live in a major city. Chicago. Well, I don't live actually in Chicago, but it's only a mile away. It feels less like the 'burbs here & more like a neighborhood. It's a fascinating history with amazing architecture & a great history. It's fun to walk around & see the things that I've read about in books. Walking is a wonderful way to lose pounds. When I lived in San Francisco, I walked an average of 35 miles per week & when I was eating to lose, I averaged 3 lbs per week lost until I had lost the 48 lbs I wanted to lose. Then I merely increased my caloric intake a bit & continued to walk.
