Good luck DG :)

Wow Amy, 2km, that's great!

I just did 10 mins on the bike today, I had lots of stuff to do, but better than nothing I guess.

Thanks Jamberie! It gets a bit tedious just watching the bottom of the pool for an hour, but its worth it afterwards! :D

Anything is better than nothing ;) ;) ;)

That's kinda how I feel on the bike. I usually watch TV, today I tried reading the forum but I won't be doing that again...I slowed down heaps!

LOL thats the only problem with the forum.... :-)) ;D
When I used to use my X-trainer in front of the TV, I would put on a movie with lots of fast-paced action scenes ;)

I walked and walked and walked (even up satiars) for 5 hours around the shopping centre.  :D

Thanks everyone for your wishes - will let u know how I go!

dd17 had tonsils removed on dec 20 and my worry was she'd have a slow recovering or end up back in hospital before my surgery but glad to say she's on the mend.

Thanks for asking Amy :) No exercise biking yet...although I won't feel too bad if I miss today because I did some gardening for a few hours today so I figure that counts!
It's only supposed to be 27 degrees here today so it's kinda nice.

Gardening, vacuuming, ironing, cleaning.... it all counts Jamberie, as long as you're moving! :D :D :D
Running around after kids counts too ;D
Everyone should have a day off each week anyway ;) Exercise isn't meant to be punishment, so its important to let the body rest too!
