If it burns a few calories as well fantastic. </p> <p>Marianna and Michelle you are both off to fantastic starts, I can't believe the pride I feel for people I have never met in real life. You go girls. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michelle-and-marianna-checking-in#post-118161 Mon, 18 Jan 2010 02:20:37 +0000 Angie 118161@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh! That's fantastic, Michelle, Reva and Michelle's new boots! Glad I could love-nudge you along. We all have to start somewhere and I'm a firm believer in walking. Life always looks better after an invigorating walk. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michelle-and-marianna-checking-in#post-118128 Sun, 17 Jan 2010 23:22:42 +0000 Michelle 118128@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know you've been nudging Marianna, Angie, but thought I'd let you know that they've been working for me, too. Got out for nicce walks today and yesterday (in which the new boots passed the comfort test with flying colours, incidentally). Reva and my body both thank you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michelle-and-marianna-checking-in#post-118082 Sun, 17 Jan 2010 16:47:41 +0000 Angie 118082@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another loving nudge here, Marianna! Report back after your walk and all the best with weigh-in day tomorrow. Gertrude is cheering for you :0) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michelle-and-marianna-checking-in#post-118026 Sun, 17 Jan 2010 14:32:04 +0000 anne 118026@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You know I am a little envious of you two. Over here it is so hot the only way to fit a brisk walk into the day is by setting the alarm clock early. My alarm didn't work for 2 days in a row. It is weird to wake up at 7am and know that any exercise plans for the day are already not going to happen!</p> <p>Anyway - all the best and congratulations on the progress you are both making! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michelle-and-marianna-checking-in#post-117854 Sat, 16 Jan 2010 20:14:53 +0000 marianna 117854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Generally I just need a loving push to get me started, so I thank you for giving me the nudge I needed to get off my lazy bum.</p> <p>I feel the hugs! I miss baby Gertrude and can't wait to see her... it's been way too long. I wish dogs could talk on the phone. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michelle-and-marianna-checking-in#post-117852 Sat, 16 Jan 2010 20:09:16 +0000 Angie 117852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>HAPPY DANCE! That's our gal! I never doubted your walking motivation for a second. Sending proud hugs your way. MANY of them. And a special kiss from baby Gertrude. Can you feel them? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michelle-and-marianna-checking-in#post-117849 Sat, 16 Jan 2010 20:06:08 +0000 marianna 117849@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, I absolutely walked yesterday! I went first thing in the morning. I was feeling extremely lazy (as usual) but this thread kept replaying in my head so I went out and walked for 25 minutes around the park.</p> <p>I haven't had a chance to go walking yet today, but I will! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michelle-and-marianna-checking-in#post-117841 Sat, 16 Jan 2010 19:55:33 +0000 Angie 117841@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yooooohooooo, Marianna. Did you walk yesterday? How about today? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michelle-and-marianna-checking-in#post-117827 Sat, 16 Jan 2010 19:27:24 +0000 medusa 117827@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This thread is inspiring. Marianna, I can't believe you just went out for a walk straightaway. Way to go!</p> <p>Michelle, good job sticking with it during a busy time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michelle-and-marianna-checking-in#post-117418 Fri, 15 Jan 2010 02:39:26 +0000 Angie 117418@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wooohooo, Michelle! You are going like a Boeing. VERY impressed. It’s so easy to lapse into bad fast food fixes when we’re rushed or tired. But you didn’t and I’m proud of you too. Get some rest. </p> <p>Another woohooo for Marianna! You have just started your exercise regime and that took courage and discipline. I’m holding you to brisk walking for 20-25 minutes for seven days in your normal clothes and good shoes. I know that you can keep this up! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michelle-and-marianna-checking-in#post-117417 Fri, 15 Jan 2010 02:16:04 +0000 marianna 117417@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>VERY impressive, Michelle! You stayed strong during a stressful time. I'm proud of you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michelle-and-marianna-checking-in#post-117416 Fri, 15 Jan 2010 02:06:56 +0000 Michelle 117416@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All's well on the diet front over here. Today was the only day I exceeded my daily target, and I'm allowed to do so thanks to the flex points on the plan. I'm pleased with my track record so far this week, since it's been bedlum at work. That horrendous earthquake in Haiti means lots of activity in the newsroom, which results in almost all reporters doing a lot of writing. I'm very very tired and consequently haven't gotten a move on the exercise front, which I must change, but I'm glad I didn't let the overtime and tiredness derail my healthy cooking plans or my overall meal choices. </p> <p>You're wonderful for helping us stay on track, Angie! Like Marianna I'm hoping some physical changes will start to appear soon. I believe a couple of things feel different, but it will be nice when it's visible to others. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michelle-and-marianna-checking-in#post-117415 Fri, 15 Jan 2010 01:36:05 +0000 Queen Mum 117415@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>yay for you Marianna- tomorrow run half of one of those laps </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michelle-and-marianna-checking-in#post-117414 Fri, 15 Jan 2010 01:32:58 +0000 marianna 117414@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Reporting back! I live next to a park so I walked laps around the park for 20 minutes. I probably walked a mile or so. It felt good and there is no reason why I can't do that everyday. I could have walked longer than 20 minutes but that was a good starting point. Tomorrow I will walk for 25 minutes... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michelle-and-marianna-checking-in#post-117404 Fri, 15 Jan 2010 00:37:25 +0000 Angie 117404@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Woohoo! That's the spirit, angelface. I'm waiting for you to report back from your brisk walk. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michelle-and-marianna-checking-in#post-117403 Fri, 15 Jan 2010 00:32:18 +0000 marianna 117403@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A brisk 20 minute walk a day is absolutely doable. Actually, I think I'll get off my bum and do that right now. Thanks for the push. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michelle-and-marianna-checking-in#post-117402 Fri, 15 Jan 2010 00:26:48 +0000 Angie 117402@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That’s excellent going with the diet, Marianna! It’s not easy making good food choices and I’m proud of you for sticking to the plan. </p> <p>Have you tried doing a brisk 20 minute walk a day? You can stay in normal clothes but make sure you have comfy shoes. This will REALLY help. Why don’t you set yourself a goal: do it for a week and give yourself a little present AFTER your accomplishment. You can report back to me daily if you like? Or report to Michelle? </p> <p>Don’t worry about impromptu camera snaps and video shoots. We tend to be overly critical of those. I bet you looked every bit as pretty and statuesque as you always look. Don’t give it a second thought! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michelle-and-marianna-checking-in#post-117389 Thu, 14 Jan 2010 23:48:02 +0000 marianna 117389@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, thank you for thinking of us!</p> <p>I am doing well, I think. I have eaten out at restaurants a couple times this week but I tried to make good choices so I don't think I did any damage (at least I hope not). I am still dragging my feet on getting out and exercising and I have no idea why. I am lacking serious motivation in the exercise department. I feel like a lazy cow.</p> <p>I desperately want to see changes when I look in the mirror, but I don't. It's hard to see a few pounds lost on my frame, but still, I want to see *something.* I have to be more patient...</p> <p>So I don't know. I am doing fine in the diet department and I really hope to see physical changes soon. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michelle-and-marianna-checking-in#post-117382 Thu, 14 Jan 2010 23:08:24 +0000 Angie 117382@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How is the diet going dearest lovelies?
