I'm using my Xbox 360, Dance Central games, they have a fitness mode and you can make up a playlist. I throw myself into it so I'm sweating pretty soon!Quote:

Is elliptical trainer ok? I have been doing 60 minute fat burn setting 4-6 days a week and I'm literally drenched in sweat when I'm done. HR stays between 135-160 based on how the intensity changes. I don't use the arms much to avoid building extra muscle..(usually scrolling on my iPad to pass the time..so just check HR periodically on the handle sensors. Seems like it's all cardio, maybe a little harder leg workout than just walking. Tells me I usually burn 450+ calories, I don't really factor that into my sway, but makes me feel like I'm getting a solid workout..

Anyone still exercising? :-)
Haha! Me!! I just don't post on here anymore now that exercising is like the diet to me now- it's second nature.
I still walk my DS1 to school in the morning while pushing my DS2 in a stroller while wearing my HEAVY DS3. Then I continue on a trail for an hour and end at my DS2's preschool. Then I walk home with my DS3 in the stroller for another 20min. I get about 80-85 min of cardio a day with 60min being uninterrupted.

Sometimes we walk to pick up my DS1 from school, which adds another 15-20 min to my daily total.

:-) I walk to and from school morning and afternoon but not straight before or after my 60 mins cardio so it doesn't count really
Hi Ladies, I have been doing couch potato up to this point because I didn't think I could stick to the 60 min 6 days a week, but I feel crappy and I am thinking I might add in cardio now. How long do you have to be doing the cardio for it to count towards your sway or help? I have been TTC most of the year and on the LE diet for 11 weeks and my attempt this cycle will be in about 8-12 days. I am going to mess things up by starting cardio now?
I am trying to do cardio too, most weeks I have been managing 5 days occasionally 6 but I can only really go walking with DS so when the weather has been bad I have missed a day or two. Hopefully this is enough to help sway just a little. Even if it doesn't it has definitely helped my mood which has sometimes been a bit lower since on the le diet. GirlieCat I think it doesn't matter too much when you start. I only started the exercise about 6 weeks ago but have been on the diet for 10 weeks. Was going to go couch potato but needed something to boost my mood and DS loves being outdoors so we enjoy our daily walks now. I was initially worried I didn't start the exercise soon enough but haven't gotten my bfp yet so have had longer exercising than I had planned.
Hi ladies! I'm back after a 3 month break. It's nice to see some new ladies on here and some have disappeared as they are pregnant, yay! I have always been an avid sports person but I have a lot of muscle and build it so easily, literally I just have to look at a gym and I build it! But I find it difficult finding the time to do a solid 60 mins a day as I have a very busy lifestyle. So I am sitting here trying to gee myself up to go out for a run before I have to pick up ds2 from nursery! And staying motivated is hard sometimes too, just have to remember why I'm doing it!
Good luck to everyone today!
We'll be here to cheer you on! :cheerteam:
HI Ladies, not been on here for a while, tried to do the 60 mins cardio but the summer holidays got the way, am hoping to start easing myself back into it again this week. How is everyone doing? Any little pink bundles since i last visited? x
Finished mine about an hour ago! I try to do first thing in the AM. I woke up at about 5:30, but so did my three boys. So I think I'm just going to stick to naptime. It's at 11am every day. So that gives me an hour to do my exercise and then it puts me at noon to eat. =)
Well done ladies. I've been trying to get the exercise going again. Not doing too well at the moment but I'll get there!
Successful cardio Day 1
Week two going well!
Yay keep going. xx

Cheats are good now and again but i hope you get to where you feel comortable with your sway once again.xx

Hey Butterflies. I was doing great from Jun to Oct but haven't done much since then. Planning to start again in the new year x
I start again in the new year. I stopped trying in September, took a short break but then kept up the exercise until about two weeks ago. Not looking forward to running in this cold weather, I only go in the garage but I still hate it!
It definatley is a hard time of year to be a vegetarian or diet at all & I have eaten turkey and salmon this week along with potatoes and fatty desserts over Xmas week ! My family are mad for food and family time so we don't stop eating for a week !! On the plus side I've had no breakfast & not a lot of snacking and also wine (a lot!) every night ! And managed to do exercise 4 tims this week so not as bad as I could have been ... but yes when it get to 1st January I'll be back on it 100%!
My first attempt will be when I've been on the LE diet for 11 weeks expecting it not to work as I've taken months to fall with my boys before but giving it a shot anyway...
So nice to hear from fellow swayers it's nice to be able to help eachother :)

I've just been planning the family meals and food shop for next week as I'm determined to get back on track in the new year. Definitely starting my daily dancing again on Tues morning as that's when DH and the boys are back to work/school
Yes Tuesday is the first proper day for me too as we have a party tommorow night which again is more food and drink no doubt not in my limits for the day but can't wait for Tuesday to start properly !
Although I'm on my bike as I write this so still trying this week ! Xx

Tuesday is my official start day too. I'm trying to get all the Christmas food and chocy eaten for then, I've even got a bag full of goodies packed for my son to take back to uni with him. You are being good butterflies, I've just not even bothered with any exercise this holiday apart from long walks with the dog. Having a really fattening curry tonight and it will be buffet tomorrow night, then I'm going to ease myself into it after that. I've bookmarked lots of vegan meals that look delicious so I'm quite looking forward to it, I just don't want to loose too much weight like I did last time.
Let's go for it tomorrow Butterflies and Frilly!! 60 mins and LE here we come!!
Hey all - I will be TTC mid year so getting my head around the LE and the plan so to speak - easing in slowly!
So will be able to partake in the chats - need help staying motivated!
Yes I'm up just about to make my twos sons brekky then il jump on my bike !
There's so much frost this morning I'm not chancing falling over whilst running !
Good luck ladies lets go! X

I did 40 mins yesterday and 50 today :-)
Hi ladies, I saw this thread and thought it's exactly me at the moment. Have not done any for 2 weeks due to various reasons and illnesses with ds1 and husband! Attempt in about 4 weeks so will get back on it!

Hi ladies.
FINALLY!!! I'm here :) my DH bought me an excerise bike after Christmas because I moaned enough about wanting to get fit in the new year. So here I sit on my bike. Watching the Michael Jackson 'this is it' documentary to keep me entertained. Haven't seen it before..
Really hope I can keep this up. I was couch potatoe before falling preg in August. But after putting on weight in that pregnancy and miscarried and then Christmas I just can't get rid of the weight..
proud of myself for giving this a go :)
Good luck everyone xx

Artisam I've also been on LE since 1st November with a few days going over in fat but not too often (Defo 3/4 days over Xmas though!)
But back on it this year with exercise and being strict - our attempt is in 2 weeks I'm hoping I've done enough to be honest if I don't fall pg I'll keep it up til I do! X
