Lets Post our Daily Exercise

twohobbies,

That is so cool!! I'm going to check it out. 

And...ooooooh!! I love those Lindor truffles. The white chocolate...yum!!!

Yesterday - a few trips down the bunny hill to remember how to ski and one trip down a longer, fairly easy hill and I was ready for the afternoon buffet (company event).  Very cold, very windy, snow blowing everywhere and icy slopes meant I was not a confident skier.

Today, no exercise.  Just car shopping (remember the dumb ass that turned left, crossing traffic in front of me last week?).  We're making progress on finding a new car but are not rushing into anything.  It's gotta be something I like that's within our no loan budget.  Fish fry tonight (I hate fish) but I'm bringing my signature taco salad and could survive on just that if I have to .

Joy: So glad to see you. I think about you often.

Cheryl: Your bunnies multiplied, hopped to the East Coast, and landed in my house. Do you want them back?

SandS: Have fun car shopping. 

After 2 antibiotics, a steroid pack, and eye drops for pink eye, I'm finally better. Bob Costas has pink eye - that's why he's wearing glasses during his coverage of the Olympics. My doctor told me pink eye was going around. Never dreamed it would make it to Sochi!

Speaking of the Olympics, my cousin's daughter is on the Biathlon Team! Needless to say, we are very proud of her. Olympics is in her blood: both my cousin and his wife were on Olympic Rowing Teams. Her name is Hannah Dreissigacker. Go Hannah! Here's her blog: http://hannahsartventure.blogspot.com/

Fast walked at the park this afternoon in 55 degrees. Decided only to walk and not start back to jogging yet.

Badger I have the cranberry citrus crisps, they are nice 'dunking' cookies so yes I recommend them. I paid $100 for my Fitbit but I've seen them on sale at Target for $80, I really love mine but I don't do the sleep or food, my friend gave one to her BF for Christmas and he's obsessed with it, doing the sleep, the food and the exercise.

Happy Birthday, Claire. It snowed here too.  Oh I forgot that's not news in Chicago.  So I did go for a 37 minute walk yesterday and then did my laundry hauling again.    Yesterday we had this snow that was so light and fluffy and had sparkles in it.  It was beautiful but it looked like the fake snow they use on stage.  It was beautiful to walk in though.

Dulci we have a Lindt store near us and I have to tell you there are so many flavors you don't get in a  regular store.  OMG its like crack.   But three only have 15 carbs so I try to stick to 3 or 4 a few times a week and then it keeps me from eating other sweets with more carbs.      

Badger I was looking at the fitbits at Christmas.  I believe the Flex is more expensive and it was out of stock everywhere. Then I heard the bands are bothering some people's wrists.  Some designer is going to be making bands for them in the spring.  Maybe they will be prettier and not bother the skin.  So anyway, that's why I started using the Argus as I was waiting to get a Flex later but now I may just continue with this.    

Wonderland how exciting to know someone in the Olympics.  I want to take a look at her blog.  I am never that interested in the summer olympics but I adore the winter.  Because I love the skiing and snowboarding I think. 

So I'm off to look at Hannah's blog and Wunda chair?

Badger it was gorgeous and that haiku says it great. I actually have just been trying to get a picture of the sparkles with my iphone and out a window, but I don't think I'm very successful.   When people say the Inuit had many words for snow, I can understand that. 

Hi Everyone,

Well, I finished the week okay, but missed my goals.  Here is what I have:  7.17 Hours and 44.5 Miles. 

However, I finally added up January's month and I finished with:  30.45 Hours and 60.75 Miles.

Regarding chocolate post:  WalMart is now carrying "Green and Blacks" Organic 85% Dark Chocolate Bars.  For you aficionados out there, one serving is 12 squares so you can sprinkle lots of yumminess throughout your day and stay within 1 serving. 

Funny about pink eye making it all the way to Sochi.

I love Tarja'.  

Have a great weekend everyone - keep jammin'!

Exercise and Breast Cancer Risk Reduction

"Practical Principles of Some Lifestyle-Oriented Breast Cancer Risk Reduction"

We also loved Sage!  We saw him last week on TV for the first time in the Extreme Games - can you believe the final stunt in the air was one he had never done before in competition or in practice? 

I noticed one thing about these guys - they LOVE what they do.  One is chewing gum during his run down the slope, the other is adjusting his jacket, they are just out there having a great time.  I also admired how well they all got along together - didn't matter what country they were from. I supposed it is a small community but I felt they were all champions.

Shovel and Sculpt 25 minutes and house cleaning.  I don't know how long that was but it seemed like hours!  I think I'm done exercising for the day because I want to curl up on the sofa. 

Graupel, you say.  Interesting.  I think we just call that sleet here. 

45 minutes of intervals on the elliptical, again, used the benefit of AZ time to up the resistance and speed.

walked dogs = 1 mile

Happy Birthday, Claire!  Inspired, we are in Mesa, but head home and back to the cold tomorrow. Have been spending every second outside and will get another walk in before heading to the airport. Biggest Loser fans, my niece went to high school with Rachel and corresponded with her several times during the show. I think she will do alright. Talk to you once I am back in the Ice Bowl of North Dakota

hi all and welcome Headeast.  Exercise yesterday was AM yoga DVD, felt so good to stretch and relax.  Spent most of the day doing bookwork but also got in some Scrub & Sculpt.  Was lazy and ordered pizza for supper.

Woke up with a headache so took the day off work.  Not prone to them so it's either stress or the wheat in the pizza crust.

Happy (early) Birthday, Claire!

((odie)) hope your neck & shoulders are OK.

Lisa, how's the car shopping going?

Cheryl, the cranberry citrus crisps ARE good.

Ruth, welcome home!  ♥ to all

60 minute early morning group class today.  Not much this weekend except car shopping and cooking for a fish fry on Saturday and then yesterday I was on my feet all day baking.  Boy oh boy did my feet hurt by the end of the day.  Got five Valentine's Day boxes packed up with yummy goodies and ready for the post office today.  Plus there's a bunch leftover for a bake sale fundraiser next week for a co-worker who's battling leukemia and has had some recent setbacks.  Those are in the freezer.

Badger - car shopping is going ok, considering the lack of time I have to devote to it.  DH has been a real peach doing a lot of online shopping for me.  We'll be heading across the state this weekend to visit a BIL who is not doing well (fighting various cancers for 10 years, he's the reason I bought an AFLAC cancer policy in 2005!) and will tie in a visit to a car dealer in Royal Oak who has a few that we're interested in.  Fortunately for me my DH works about 150 yards from the end of our driveway, so we've been doing OK with one vehicle for the time being.

Feeling SO much better today!!

Several sets of stairs done and will do a few more before going to work. Yay!!
