ok, so I start this diet last Monday. I'm doing really good about what i do and don't eat. no more than 1700 calories a day, and I eat things that make me feel full so it dosen't really bother me. So Monday I did about 10 minutes with my weights, and Tuesday I did a 2 hour walk. But let me tell you what me and all of my stupidness did yesterday. Tuesday I got a weight training video put out by Denise Austin. I was thinking ah, this will be wicked awsome for my arms! (I hate the shape of my arms.) So i take the video home and do it Wednesday. All 37 minutes at my own pace. I didn't really feel that i had pushed myself THAT much when I was doing it. It had everything from crunches to squats. Well, it is now 7:30am and i wouldn't even be awake right now if it wasn't for the mass amount of muscle pain. I pulled the muscles in the top of my right leg, my back, and my lower abs, but the one that is really killing me is right under my chest where my ribs start to part. It fills like someone has punched me right betwen the chest. It hurts to lay down, it hurts to stand up. I feel SOOOOO STUPID! and now i am all mad because I know I won't be able to exercise. Well, I WILL try to do some walking. (My leg is not THAT bad.) So thank you for listening to my stupid exercise move of the day, and if anyone knows what to do for a pulled upper ab muscle, PLEASSE for the love of God tell me what to do! AAACCCK! ^v^Christie

Get a waterproof coat or umbrella and go walk! I love walking in the rain.

I can't take a 10 month old baby out in the rain. They'll call the child abuse hotline on me! LOL. Well, I went on a 20 minute (and VERY hilly) walk. The air stayed cool, and lucky for us, it didn't rain. Maybe it was just my inner laziness not wanting to just get out and do it, but it was done. Not as long as i would have liked, but the ground here is crazy mad with hills. I guess it was good for my heart, cause i did break a sweat. Whoo-Hoo! I'll build up from day to day and then in no time i won't even think about the hills! ^v^Christie

Call me ignorant, but the last time I checked, babies were waterproof. Don't they have those plastic covers for the stroller?
