Dag nab it .. just missed you all!  Just finished at work, account reconciliations are due and with my boss working late, it was necessary for me to as well.  

Am going to head home now and will read through the post a little later tonight.  Thanks Miss Lucinda for hosting the Chat and to all who participated.

Same time next week .. looking forward to seeing you then!  Do you think it would help if we sent reminders to our group???  Maybe we should put that up as a poll! ???

You bet stairs count!  It will take some time, but you'll get to more activities as the babies need you less....just had to peek at them on your profile.  How cute are they!  Also had to get a little chuckle, has hubby gotten over the Titanium poking deal?.....and of course I know that they came into the world saying no words at all, much less the one he feared.  

I come from a Marine family....Even my eldest son was a Marine.  He just came home from Iraq last year and finished out his service.  He's in college now.

lol i don't have time. i belong to them. lol. i love it they keep me busy for sure. we have a fitness center here (we live in a townhouse community) and i've been trying to get the tredmills but i can't till after the boys go to bed....at 7 30.....and i'm so exhausted by then that all i want and can do is drink my green tea and pass out in bed. i do run up and down stairs all day if that counts for anything. lol. i'm hoping the wii fit will help motivate me. greg is a marine so i know he can show me exercises i can do at home. i'll have to ask him to show me.

Myself, I am also a runner.  Right now running is hard because it is so cold here and that really makes problems with my asthma.  So to run, I have to make time to get to the gym on the treadmill.  I need to start incorporating some weights and maybe some swimming into the routine...but those also need the gym and I'm not really liking the thought of going outside into the cold after swimming.  

I do enjoy quite a few exercises that I have found online.  Some of them are 10-20 minute boot camp exercise drills, so far those are the ones that I like the best.  I also posted a yoga exercise a few days ago that was pretty cool...http://www.medhelp.org/posts/show/762840

Also, just above in this conversation here Goku was just telling me about a cool site that has a ton of exercises as well....I'm going to have to check that out myself.

Wow!  Six month old twins!  Time must be at a high premium at your place.  Bless your heart.

my veggie rose son also used to do the poking fun thing when I would work out to videos....until I told him that if he laughed anymore he would have to do them too.  He's home schooled, so I told him that would be his PE....no more laughing.  ; )

I'm not sure about your local library, but they often have quite a few titles that you can give a try before spending that money as well.  Not sure if they would have the most recent Biggest Loser or not, but you just never know.

Oh yeah....there are all sorts of sites online where you can see free workouts.  I love those!  That way when I can't get to the gym I can do one of those.  I especially like the boot camp workouts, seems like they do the most in the shortest amount of time.
