Blog Reading

On day one I did 10 minutes on the elliptical machine.  Day two I slept all day, no motivation, no energy.  Today is day three and I am finding good motivation by reading the blogs!  Lots to do, hoping for a productive day!

3000 strides in 20 minutes.  I am pleased.
Focus was on how my butt and thighs felt tight!  I like that feeling.
I challenged myself to 1000 strides when I was bored after 4 minutes.
Then when I had 1 minute to go, I was at 2500 strides so I pushed myself for the next two minutes to reach 3000. 
I feel so good!  Instead of focusing on working out for a time limit, I think focusing on how my muscles feel, and pushing myself doing random goals is much more beneficial!  I hate it when I exercise and then I am exhausted after.  I need to have energy left to finish out the day!  I am off and running!

Congratulations. Keep it up!

keep doing  a great job, have a healthy day. 

Looks like you are getting there!

Build up as your fitness grows and eventually establish a minimum per day (time? strides?).

As for your nutrition - did you make some changes? Little things go a long way when combined with exercise. In the beginning, all I did was to reduce my sweets and I lost 8 lbs in the first week.
