Exercising For Comments -- Update
Last weekend I did not do any crunches because of the intestinal thing I had. But I resumed them on Monday. I have still not done 50 on any one day; the most I've done was 40. And one day last week -- I can't believe I didn't mark it down on my calendar!! -- Thomas looked at me and said, "You must be doing something right, because you're looking really good!" And I do feel like my clothes are fitting more loosely. Yeah me!
This month I'd like to try something different. I think I'll alternate crunches with something else, but I don't know what. I am going to Curves two or three times a week, and I am still walking almost every day. I think I should ask for suggestions from the J-Land community, don't you? What should I do? Jumping Jacks? (At my age and after two kids -- do you think I should?) Push ups? I have some dumbbells -- perhaps I should do something with them? (Something exercise-related, I mean. Using them as paperweights isn't an option here.)
How about a poll! We all love polls!! If you think I should do something not on the poll, then feel free to start a write-in campaign.
*Note: I'm copying this post from an entry on Dusty Pages, and I will combine the votes from both journals.

I voted for squats too because I think they work alot of major muscle groups...and the more muscle you build...the more calories you burn! I do agree with the comment below though. Women tend to neglect their upper body...so maybe the next thing you add should be something for the arms.
But I vote squats first. (lol)
((hugs))

I am not sure which exercises you are already doing. Squats are good - lunges are good. Mostly, though, women tend to neglect their upper bodies - maybe bicep curls or lat pulldowns?

That would be great for those thighs...which I'm sure your man will love even more!!! LOL
Keep up the great work!
