Still using my treadmill regularly. I have changed things up a bit. I now do at least a mile and a half daily, but at a sustained incline of at least 5%, for the full 30 minutes, on the machine. Speed is 3.5 MPH. I  may gradually increase the time, a little bit, to increase calorie burn. I am convinced, though, that after a certain age, it is nearly impossible to lose weight.

Hah! Why didn’t I think of that? Oh, I know. You have to smoke it……, so a no go, for me.

Still  doing my 2 miles , on my treadmill. am up to a 6% incline. By the time I’m done power-walking, at 3.5 mi/ hr, sweat is dripping into my eyes, and down my face, and I have burned approximately 350 calories, in under 40 minutes. A few weeks back, John and I were traveling on a road, that had a sign showing we were at a 6% upward grade. It was noticeable. Seeing that incline, made me realize how awesome I am, to be able to do that every day..,,,😊

Good morning.

 

I have decided to start working out again. I was going to the gym pre-covid and I stopped going. I hired a personal trainer and had my first session with him on Tuesday. Not making any grandiose plans, but my modest goal is to show up for weekly personal training sessions, start to swim at least once a week and start to eat healthy snacks in the evening.

 

One more step along the road I go!:)

Good morning. I am going swimming this morning. Will report back when I am done.

 

Happy Monday.

Have to say I did not make it to the pool yesterday. I find it difficult getting motivated early in the morning. But I plan to go to the pool on Wednesday morning.

 

Cheers,

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
