I walked 2.2 miles today in 45 min...does a walk still do you good if the whole time you are wining to yourself that you don't want to be doing it..........

You are only exercising your facial muscles when you whine! Maybe even burn an extra calorie!

Great job, keep it up! I know a woman who lost a lot of weight doing low carb. In a 5 month period, she went from barely being able to walk a mile to running a half marathon. If you stay with it and push yourself just a little, you will be amazed by the results.

I understand. Maybe your 5 YO could ride a bike while you walk. Or perhaps a friend or neighbor could watch him/her for 30 minutes while you walk. Just some suggestions. I know it can be tough. I have a treadmill, which makes exercising so convenient. I love it.

Do you find that the walking is gettig easier? Like you feel like you want to walk farther, or faster, or somehow make it more challenging?

easier- yes,walking farther -if I had more time,faster-I can jog part of the way now, more challenging- no not really...:lol:
ok I would like a better walk,better scenery, more uphill...
what I don't want to do any more is walk at 1 in the morning after work and before I go to bed..I can walk my route in 35 min without jogging(short legs)but in the middle night I am to tired and it takes 45-50 mins
