Miles for September 16 - 22, 2012

[Snowmom]

 

Momo, it took me about 10 years and I did lose about 32 pounds, but, I have gained some of it back, not a lot maybe, but, just a few and I need to get those few off again. So, I need to drop at least or close to 10 pounds yet. I really need to get busy and work on the treadmill and bike.

Here are some things that count for miles.

 

These are as you can count them, 1 mile will = one mile.

 

Biking, swiming, walking, and such.

 

*********

 

These will be counted as 1 hour = one mile

 

 

*********

 

will be down and up 10 times = one mile

 

If you go up and down 100 stairs you have walked 10 miles. Count all stairs you climb.

 

********

 

These two willl be 30 minutes = one mile

 

weights, jumping rope.

 

********

 

You will have to be the judge of these. We have been counting 1 hour as a mile, but, sometimes it isn't so. Therefore, I'm letting you be the judge of these.

Last week, September16 - 22, I am going to say with laundry, stairs, shopping, housework, dishes and we did some yard work, I got in about 10 miles, I didn't walk on the treadmill or bike at all. One of these days I am in hopes to get back down and do that.

 

Ok, who will be ???

Who is going to join us? Anyone who wants to start exercising or walking or whatever, count your miles and add them up this week and post them next week when either Momo or I make the walking post.

Going to try this again with you ladies: Did a little in the garden, maybe 1 mile Did alot of cleaning probably 5 miles, and walked the treadmill 1/4 mile(kind of didn't work right so had to stop), and outside 1 mile..so I have a total of 7 1/4. Hope to get walking outside more since it is cooling off and I am having to diet for dieabeties and blood pressure. Been doing alot of reading, catching up the last few nights on here.

I'm in! I need to start holding myself a bit more accountable. When I exercise regularly, my blood pressure stays normal. When I don't, it starts to creep back up.

So, today I went 6 miles on the exercise bike (eb). No big deal except that my resistance was set to 5!
