Today I really pushed my walking routine. I downloaded a new playlist and it was 40+ minutes long. It really motivated me to keep on when I really wanted to quit at 30 minutes. Not sure how far I walked but I'm guessing it was about 2 miles. My thighs were twitching afterwards so walked it off a bit more and they stopped. Is that normal?

totally normal. your muscles are trying to keep up and the twitching will go away after they build up a little and get used to the exercise. I experienced this quite a bit in yoga after ankle surgery, recovery, etc. its pretty weird.

I think they're new. Special K and South Beach make them in bottle and powder form. I've only seen the Special K in both. I have the powder that you add to a bottle of water. Designed to take the edge off.

WTG! on the loss. I haven't lost anything and I'm not sure why. I haven't been this good in YEARS. I have to think I'm losing it somewhere.

Awesome...I'm jealous!!!!

It goes so fast doesn't it?! :clap:

OL, I read this to Philippa because she runs and the first thing she said to me was "WHAT PLAYLIST!!" :lol: I guess you know what's important to her now. But anyway! She said stretch stretch stretch before you go walking; that's it's not only the runners who have to do it.

Normally I pop in a walking DVD to do the warm up part of it before I go outside. Yesterday I didn't. That was probably it. It's raining today so I'll be doing the indoor routine.

Guess what? I dropped a few pounds!!!!!! So now a total of 7 lbs all together since we started turning this motha out!!!

Sam already had quite a few of these songs downloaded so I just added a few. I'm using the electropop playlist found here:

Stretch before AND after exercising to help prevent injury and soreness. I also try to work my schedule so I can take a warm bath after more high impact exercise sessions.

Glad to hear everyone is achieving success! :clap:
