jademermaid | Muscles are sore from weight training!

But I did my walkaerobics anyway.

40 minutes, Leslie Sansone's Super fat burning. (2 miles)

I'm on a new program, told to me by

psiadoreyou, called Sparkpeople.com.

I wasn't going to say anything, because I wanted to scope it out for a while, but I'm doing pretty well now, it's been a few days, and I'm starting to figure things out. I can't believe all this is free. They have a place to input your foods, which then calculates your calories for you. They have lots of things listed, and you can input your own foods too. I have been keeping my calories under 1700 for the first week, and I committed to doing cardio five times a week and weight training twice a week. There's a place to input your exercises too, and it calculates your calorie burn and generates charts to see your progress.

So far it's working well, I'm trying to get into all the cool features, like the teams. They have mini forums, where people of like minds work out together. I'm on the a pagan group, an over 40 group, a bellydance group....there's lots of people doing this! Anyway, it's fun, there's a point system that makes it sort of like a game, so that's cool.

So hey, if you are interested, tell 'em I sent you (jademermaid), I get ten points (points are just for fun, but what the hell):
