Science Fair, part two



Tanner's science fair project involves volunteers who are willing to walk three to five times a week, for four weeks. What a great way to begin the holidays! If you're interested in participating, leave your email, and I'll send you his exercise log. The comparative factor comes into play when some of the participants carry weight in a backpack (five pounds of sugar), and walk. He'll collect before, weekly, and after weight to see if carrying weight increases success in losing weight. You chose weight or no weight. Thanks to all who have supported him thus far, you're the best!

I committed, and lamented the fact (just last night) that I haven't started yet. This tells me that I'm not too, too far behind?!
(sorry)

I haven't started yet. I spent yesterday working a couple of hours in the pumpkin patch at church and that sat with Nana for three hours. She is resting comfortably and is on oxygen. I'll try to make up for it over the next week. Becky--another surgery? Hope all is o.k.

I would hate to traumatize the young lad.

I'll do it, IF he won't share my weight with anyone!!! I can do either~with the weight, or without! Do you have my email?

Bring on the walking! I am already doing it, does that matter?

Well I WAS in ~ I'm defintely siding with II... all about supporting... but send him my weight?! uhhh, I refuse to traumatize that awesome piano player and my friend! ;) OKAY, so I walked 3 times the first week without weights and lost 3.2 pounds! Thanks Tanner!!! But this week we had 2 icy cold day spells and I didn't even go out. The next 2 days snuck by and then I forgot? Can I make up for it next week!? *shhhh* don't tell ~ I've been raiding the leftover halloween candy!
