I've been doing these Chinese stretches that are supposed to make you live longer, he told me. I just hope I'm not this sore the whole time.

~Story People~
We have started walking as a family for exercise. I have been walking for a while now with some friends but whenever they are not available I never go because I don't really like walking by myself. It's a pretty long walk. We walk very fast and I never imagined that my kids could keep up. We bring the wagon for Gabbi and in case another child gets tired there is space for them to take a break. But they keep up and we have been doing the walk every evening when Mike gets home from work. I still do my 20-30 minute run in the morning with our dog Zoey. I do the run 3 times per week and I finally seeing the scale move. I lost about 10 pounds really fast but then the scale just got stuck. I think I have reached what they call a plateau. I knew I needed to either cut more calories or get my butt moving, so I chose to get my butt moving. I really love doing the family walk because it's good for everyone.
Happy Tuesday my friends!!!!

nice image ~ ...way to go mom!
have you tried lift small hand weights (or cans of veggies if you do not have weights)) every other day? it gets your metabolism moving
Just a thought.. You might want to use a measuring tape to track your progress as you might be gaining muscle and loosing fat, thereby maintaining weight but still slimming down.
I admire the running. I've always wanted to be a runner.
YOU GO GIRL!!
