Woohoo, it's summertime! Here comes the sun! This summer how about joining in for our Summer Minds 3 month challenge? For the next 3 months, we're going to concentrate on clean and mindful eating. With the abundance of fresh, delicious produce and convenience of grilling outside, what a great time to work on clean eating. Of course, summer also brings a lot of tasty treats but there's nothing wrong with an occasional treat, that's where the mindfulness comes in. As well as eating cleanly most of the time, we'll be paying attention to our portions sizes and stopping when satisfied. let's enjoy our healthiest summer yet!

WELCOME EVERYONE anytime and yes you can walk/jog/run or combo, cycle, spin, swim, aerobic classes, elliptical machine, yoga, Pilates, strength train and core work too!

I A GOING TO TRY TO DO SOME TREADMILL A MINUTE OR 2 . I found my stop watch because the treadmill does not tell time. I put it at 1 MPH and try to do it . I always now need to hand on to the front. it starts at .5 . I use a hand hold device to turn it on and up the speed. It is a fit nation treadmill which is very safe. the bars are on from. It just goes to 3.5 I think. It does raise. And it is apartment size the only other exercise equipment I have is a body gym a arm exerciser on my desk. and also a health Rider I keep. I am eating 10 tablespoons of peanut butter. I have a chart with 10 boxes I use to copy the papers when I run out. Scott drew the 10 boxes. I start over today. I told Scott not to tempt me any more.

it was a brace not a boot. and my leg was swollen and now the brace falls off. I did 2 5 minute walks at 1.5. My first goal is to get 8 boxes of 5 minutes which is 1 mile. I have 16 boxes there for 2 miles eventually. I hope to make the length of time on the treadmill longer so I can fill up more boxes at a faster clip. but today so far 10 minutes on treadmill.
