Going kind of slow, Jo... The internship/work is taking most of time... I leave home at 6am and arrive back at 12am, so not too much time left for exercising. I was thinking I could bring my ball at the office. I wonder how weird that would be... I'm sharing the office with two guys, but they leave at 6pm, so theoretically I could exercise here...

Nothing on the 13th for me... I was fighting a nasty galaxy at work. But I did 40 min the next morning (14th), 30 min on Monday (15th) and another 30 min yesterday (16th). I'm not sure I'll do something today as I've pulled an all-nighter and I'm kind of sleepy... but I'll see how the day goes.

My total is 260/400. I'm not late with the minutes, but for some reason I feel like I have done nothing all month. I guess my exercise routine is just a little messed up right now...

Jo how are things going with you??? Are you working a lot? Do you ever hear from Bio? I never get anywhere on the board except this post it seems ........ Work Work Work and little time for much else But I'm not complaining God is providing and we need it ......

Wow Georgiana it sounds like you are working out a ton ......... I struggle getting in my 10 min each day once a month usually I find time to pull out my dvd work out and do a full 30 but the motivation of knowing I NEED to make my goal is usually what drives me to do it. LOL I wish I had the motivation and drive every day!

I am so tired today I was called in to work at 3 am this morning and hadn't gone to bed till after 11 so while it's no all nighter it certainly wasn't enough sleep for this chick!

Here's my minutes:

6/13 - 10 min
6/14 - 16 min
6/15 - 12 min
6/16 - 10 min

152/300 half way to goal but still not where I need to be at 170 min ...... I'm gonna need a dvd day this month I can feel it!

Jo, congrats for making goal!

Re: resistance bands

Until now I did Nicole's 20 min workout and some exercises I found on about.com. These are the links:
VIDEO: 20-Minute Resistance Band Workout
Total Body Resistance Band Workout - Exercises for your body - Exercise

This is what I did yesterday for my SB exercises (only the SB part): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cNvpIamQOE

Yes, I did fall over a lot. And I had to repeat the video for like 10 times before figuring out what I have to do and how I have to do it. But if you look at the guy (the one in black), you'll understand why I didn't mind watching him.... umm.... I mean, it [the video]... 10 times.
