For awhile, I would use sewing as a motivator "I can sew 'x' then I'll ride ALL OUT for a minute. Then when I can breathe again, I'll sew 'y'..." But pretty soon, I was walking AROUND the bike and just moving on to sew Y and Z and A again... sigh. But I am REALLY tired of being fat ~ so, yeah; we'll be fitness friends :-) (we'll need to figure out a better way than commenting on your blog posts to encourage each other...)<br />I can do a longer plank when my husband times me than when I time myself ~ how crazy is that?<br />Happy weekend :-)the mommahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06442659609532682275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1157259107444625389.post-34115025581045348872013-10-18T13:53:31.576-06:002013-10-18T13:53:31.576-06:0050 squats???!!! That's incredible! You are my ...50 squats???!!! That's incredible! You are my new fit friend. The magazine said one of the keys to success is to find camaraderie with a fit friend - of which I have none that I know of - so you are it!! And you are very funny so its perfect. As for planks, when I started I could barely make it 25 seconds. Now I'm up just over a minute. I had my kids time me today and I was able to go 1:30 but that was with cajoling and encouraging and I was shaking by the end. <br />Oh, and I have actually done quite a bit of sewing but haven't blogged about it!! C'mon, sewing always trumps! <br />Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09422464043546730094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1157259107444625389.post-45924647807819690222013-10-18T11:20:10.190-06:002013-10-18T11:20:10.190-06:00okay. fine. you inspired me.

I need to just throw my scale out the window ~ I am allowing it to dictate my mood far too often : /<br /><br />You know - there are tons of studies that show intermittent exercise is actually a lot better for you and burns more calories, longer, than extended cardio. I think you're doing super! <br />(Curious ~ how long are you planking now?) I was doing planks daily (among other things) and was up to 1 min 15 seconds, then I just kinda gave up exercising this week (that darn scale was telling me that all my hard work was NOT helping! Fortunately - I didn't quit eating right, but dang it, I'm about to!)<br />Anyways ~ I'm proud of ya and glad you are feeling better! (but I was right about fitness cutting into your sewing time ;-)the mommahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06442659609532682275noreply@blogger.com
