I have been so much better since I've been exercising. The weight is not falling off, but I can tell in my pant size. I've actually gone down one size in the past month.

How did the fun run go, DawnH?

It was fun and I finished the race not at the end so that was good. I jogged some, walked some and I was satisfied because there were some active duty military even behind me . I don't get sore on the treadmill anymore but man the front of my thighs and my abs were killing me for 2 days. It was really weird how jogging on the ground versus the treadmill uses different muscles. I wasn't expecting that. Anyways, thanks so much for asking!

Hey everybody,

Question for you - how are you managing "body recovery" from practically non-stop exercise almost daily for this month? This challenge is doing wonders for me and I am so glad to participate; in 2 weeks I've lost 1lb (thought it would be more, but I guess it's coming). I'm finding deep muscle and spinal pain from the rigorous workout (with walking videos). I'm trying to get in 2-3 miles per day, but now am mixing it up to reduce the stress on my body. I may do 2 miles in the morning, then 1 mile at night. Or I might just do 1 mile period for that day to alleviate the body stress. I am very sore in the deep muscles and don't want to damage anything.

I'd love to know how are you managing this?

p.s. Got 2 miles in this morning and planning on another mile this evening!

ANOTHER 2 MILES ON THE TREADMILL TODAY!!!!

I'm on track to finish a week early so I don't have to work at it over vacation!!! I still want to get some exercise in though, because it's really helping me drop the lbs!! I don't want vacation to slow me down! When I entered my weight in fitbit this morning, it told me I'm on schedule to reach my goal weight by Christmas Eve next year!! While I hope to do better than that - it's great to think of that as my Christmas present to myself!!

JaGo~ I'd say go easier than you have been to give your body time to build up and so you don't injure yourself. 3 miles of the walk away the pounds in a day might be too much for you. The 1 mile WATP dvd 2 times a day would probably be gentler on your body than the 2 miles dvd at one time.

Listen to your body.
