God it's been a long time since i posted on the exercise pledge page
Well i'm making a comeback, yet again!! Rejoining class tomorrow night but have already made a start on the exercise
I joined curves the woman only gym a few months ago but haven't really put my heart & soul into it, till last week that is, so since 11th July i've been 6 times, (they say you only have to go 3 times a week to see results so here's hoping)
I was swimming yesterday with my brother & my wee niece, thu was more larking about than serious swimming lol
Went out an hour long walk this morning & will be pledging to go to Curves 4 times this & week as well as doing some exercise on my twist & tone thingy i got for the avon so will have to dust the cobwebs off that haha

For the 1st time in a year, I got my bike out from the shed and gave it a go. Boy, it was more difficult that I thought it was gonnae be but the 1st hurdle has been jumped. I know I may have aches and pains tomorrow but someone please tell me it'll get easier!

Hello everyone
Slowly getting into the exercise again. Still loving my bike and the rebounnder but haven't been on them as much as I should have.
Got one of those core stability balls at the end of last week and I am loving it. Even just sitting on it gets you some exercise and you are having to stabilise your balance at all times, plus you can't help yourself but move around on it.

Goodness me, I used to pledge on an exercise thread months and months ago and needless to say haven't exercised much since then, due to starting a very physical and stressfull job but determined not to let it get to me and am trying to get back into exercise again, every little bit counts after all!!! So back to my treadmill, trying to do at least half an our 3 times a week but pledging today to try 5 times this week and see how I go, I did yesterday's so only 4 more to go.
Have a great week everyone. xx

Hey angie........long time no see in this part of the world!
well done on getting back on the treadmill
did you manage to get to the gym today rachel? how did you get on?
I jumped about on my rebounder for 15 mins earlier this evening...
Nicky xx
Well folks finally made it to gym and found this page again so will be pledging a lot more from now on. I was last at the gym on 1st July so that is exactly a month I hadn't been. I pledge to go again on Fri, then again on Sunday.
Hope you are all being good.....nothing like a bit of exercise to lift the mood......I was buzzing when I came home. Just had a nice shower and chilling now with the kids........x

Thanks Nicky, it's good to be back. Well, so far so good, 3 days down another 2 to go and that will be my 5 days out of 7 exercise! I'm really enjoying it too as I can watch my Big Brother repeat while I am doing it so the time goes in quicker
I hardly even feel as though I'm exercising!
Well done Nicky for your go on the rebounder and Cheer Bear making it back to the gym, yes it does give you a certain buzz doesn't it!! Keep it up girls.
Well done angie - you're doing great, half the battle is finding an exercise you enjoy, and a way of making it go in quicker.............

Oh yes I can think of some exercise involvoing Dermot but that wouldn't be readable on here
Just finished my 4th session of the week on the treadmill so hanging in there! I can't quite believe I have stuck to my pledge so far, I usually always come up with an excuse, only one more day to go, wooohoooo!
Hope your all doing well today. x

Hi Nicky,
Will let you off then, that seems a reasonable excuse to me....
I made it to the gym twice this week, was aiming for 3 but ran out of time! Not enough days in my week.
Just back from toddler group today, walked there and back, ditched the car...
Hope you are all doing well..xx

I have bought 3 RC DVS's from play.com - what a bargain got them all for £9.99....like the idea of the 5 x 10 fat burner 1.......i never seem to have enuff time in the day so 10 mins is a start for me
northernstar
Sep 4 2007, 11:55 AM
go for it CC......I want you back here saying you did 10 mins tonight before you go to your mum's (avoiding the cake of course!!)!!!!!!!!
Nicky xx
PS that's the same dvd collection i have and i did the ultimate workout but didn't do the floor exercises though....
northernstar2007-09-04 12:57:06
I'm here, but I'm not if you know what I mean. I will be going back to the gym this week, just not had time. I've had a sore arm/elbow for a few weeks and finally got round to seeing dr this morning about it. I have to rest it for a few weeks, but can go to gym, just not to do arm exercises for the moment.
I have been doing a lot of walking recently though as the weather has been nicer, so every little helps.
You are all doing fab though, glad to hear it!!
ok ok you got me Nicky - I will do 10mins exercise
also go to my mums resist the cake and fix Sharlies bike......

Sep 7 2007, 03:25 PM

i'm away to edinburgh next week so i will try to walk everywhere and wear my pedometer to see how many steps i do......will report back on my return
i'm also going to a trial session at curves....
CC - i hope to see you posting here if you are a gym bunny now!!
CB - how's your arm?
are you managing to do some walking?
Angie - are you still exercising????
Claire - how's the training going??
Nicky xx
northernstar2007-09-07 23:25:16

northernstar
Sep 17 2007, 11:48 AM

Great plan - you're going to be as fit as a fiddle.......
It's so good to see this thread again, it was a great help to me before.
I plan to go to the gym today, Wed and Fri too... time permitting, the schools are on holiday.
I will do some walking too with the kids, I did this last week instead of taking the car and it certainly does help. The better weather appears to be here too so that helps.
Hope you all have a good day.....xxx

Hi,
This week is a bit difficult to plan as im off for the week, so my plan is keep moving, run don't walk (or dance) and keep moving as much as possible lol Off to Loch Lomond shores tomorrow so should get some calories burnt off in the fresh air.
CBx
Apr 15 2008, 08:01 AM
Oh I love Loch Lomond shores, we go there quite often when we are out a drive. Enjoy!! I know you will though.
I am off to the gym, first time this week.
Have a good day..........xxx
