Well, it didn't go the way I planned, but it is going so no complaining. I found a lovely excuse to take off a day or two and managed to turn it into ten or so, but, starting back, got into walking. And that's probably a very good start for me now.

DAY 11 - Any old excuse

DAY 15 - Mall walk - 33 minutes
DAY 16 - Hike, swim

DAY 19 - Hike Pott's Branch Trail, Umstead State Park, Raleigh - 30+ minutes, 1.25 miles

DAY 22 - Rest
I've set the goal for myself for now to walk at least 30 minutes at a moderate (20 minute mile) pace 3 days of each 4 and rest on the 4th day (a la CrossFit). This doesn't mean I will limit myself to 30 minutes, I'll mix in hiking, swimming or etc. as can. Haven't yet joined the gym because I enjoy being outdoors so much.
The reason I set the bar this low is because it gets me moving and burning some calories but is an easy enough goal to reach while I am building the habit and my stamina back. I do plan to start adding CrossFit back in, soon! ;-)
Right now I am focused on my diet and getting back into the fitness routine.
