Got in an hour of heavy cardio yesterday. Did 35 minute on the cross trainer and 25 on the stationary bike. Burned nearly 800 calories!
Will be working on light weights and then some more cardio today.

Yah, I remember when I first started (and subsequent restarts) that my body complained a fair bit too. Not to worry though, it'll get used to it. Just remember not to over do it. No-one wants to see you get hurt

Welcome to the new members. Everything is pretty simple but if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask. Definitely do not try to do too much- I am out of the routine at the moment but am doing my best to ease myself into exercising regularly.
I went to the gym Wednesday and spent a half hour on the elliptical. Today I went for a walk with mom- 2 miles. I'm going to try and get to the gym tomorrow for some weights and such. We'll see. Keep up the good work everyone.

Today and the next 2 days are going to be really basic/easy tasks for me--hand weeding and mowing the lawn with a riding lawnmower. Why is it going to be easy instead of intense as previously planned?
Because I fell. Not just fall, mind you. I toppled over a 10-12 ft ledge that was concealed by cut guinea grass while stretching to cut down dead banana tree branches. We're not sure what happened because we're pretty sure I knocked myself unconscious, but all I know is I toppled with a bigass polesaw in my hand and the next thing I know is I'm lying on the ground on my back facing the opposite direction. I emerged unscathed except for a few scrapes and backaches now.
I tried to swim, but it just wasn't happening. Boo.

I kind of feel like a dirty hippie right now, but I'm loving every moment.

Wholy crap! Glad to know that you're ok. Be sure to take it easy for the next while, while working and while not.

Wow, glad to hear you're mostly okay!
Mom and I went for a walk this morning- 3 miles. So I'm happy- this week has been a lot better so hopefully I'll get back into the routine.

Went for a nice long walk yesterday. I'm guessing it was around 3.5 miles but I'm not sure. I was gone for about 1 hr and 15 min so that should equal over 3 miles.
