Well there are 3 different miles you can do and I have been doing the beginners walk and did the toning walk 1x yesterday. Today I decided to go for the FAT BLASTING INTERVAL walk I was 5 minutes from being done and Bill walks in so I am sweating and I jump up and quit-MY big booty jumping around is not for ANYONE else to see Well he left again a little while ago and I thought I will do it again OMG! I did it but holy moly! It was some kinda workout! It is just that you are moving non-stop for 15 full minutes and she is smiling away and talking the WHOLE time I feel really good that I can do it and that I have stuck with it all week and I like it alot! I am just embarrased to be this out of shape!

luvmykids replied: Good for you Abbie! Keep it up!

I won't let anyone see me work out either, I'm too embarrassed to lose my ability to breathe 28 seconds into it!

kimberley replied: good for you! keep up the good work!!

and try not to beat yourself up.. keeping in shape while trying to work, run a house and raise kids is NOT easy!

JP&KJMOM replied: I am so just like you. I don't even like to do the treadmil in front of Jason. I was in the kitchen last night and got a piece of candy out of the cabinet and walked back into the living room and Jason said....did you get that off the treadmill?

BUT I could not get mad cause I told him to make me keep doing the treadmill. I really think I might try the video that you are talking about though. Treadmill is so boring to me.

Keep doing it and if I get one then I can gripe at you!

MommyToAshley replied: Good Job! Sounds like you had a great workout! We will walk the miles away together! I feel bad that I didn't go workout today. But, glad you did!

punkeemunkee'smom replied: Thanks everyone! I am surprised I like it so much!


Karen~ You should try it! It is only 15 minutes but it is really good! It was only 9.97 at Walmart. I wanted a treadmill but this will work just as well! There was another one that was $18 that was also a different lady. I may get that one if I get bored with this one! But so far so good!

I don't like working out in front of Scotty, either.

My3LilMonkeys replied: WTG for doing it twice!!!


When I first started going to the gym I felt so self concious that people would be laughing at me with my fat jiggling all over the place. It took me over a month to realize that 1) there were a lot of people in there who weren't in perfect shape and 2) no one really seemed to care what I was doing unless they were waiting for the machine I was on.

JP&KJMOM replied:

Wow I think you just talked me into it! I am gonna get one after soccer tomorrow.

TANNER'S MOM replied: I don't know everything becomes my fault...lol

I am proud of you girl! That is awesome that you can do it! Walking really did make me loose my butt, you know it did! I bet Bill is proud of you too!

I dont work out infront of Randy either. I go shut the door..and he always peeks and says what are you doing in there..like I am being naughty..it pee's me off! But I am just sweating and walking.

On the video I have...the girl says.. When I get to feeling the burn I get the giggles..and she just giggles.. I say when I am feeling the burn I want to hit people who giggle..lol

b&bsmom replied: I won't let dh watch me work out either. I have the walk away the pounds videos and I used them for awhile. However my ds has taken the weights and uses them as his bowling balls in the house. I need to find them again and get them out maybe I will start doing them again. I need to do something.

punkeemunkee'smom replied:

ITA!!! That is like when she says "Oh yeah that feels great!" I am thinking What planet is this chic from???

JP&KJMOM replied: And smiling the ENTIRE time! I want to hit her.
