X-Couch Potato Challenge

I am in severe need for assistance to get off my fat arse and move it. We all know that insane philosophy that you actually have to move your body to move the weight, so I'm about to test that crazy hypothesis that I've heard along the grapevine.

So, to help me on this little venture from the couch to the pavement, I'm joining a challenge on the WW website called the "X-Couch Potato Challenge". This is the premise:

Week 1 – Stroll/Walk 15 minutes a day – stretch gently after exercise – keep a note of minutes walked each day. Recommended: use a log book to track your daily minutes walked and pulse rates.
Week 2 – Walk/stroll 20 minutes a day – stretch gently – note minutes walked each day. Write up your log book (optional). Your Resting pulse and Exercise pulse rates will get lower as you get fitter.
Week 3 – walk 5 minutes (warm up) – brisk walk 20 minutes – walk 5 minutes (cool down) – stretch gently. Write up log book (optional).

For the purposes of the WW website, each Monday is log-in day. That being said, I am needing to be more accountable, therefore I will be trying to log on here daily to be just that! It will also eliminate the need to do a log book (see, I am innately lazy!)
