One-week-at-a-time challenge #2 -- Come on in!!

[Aquareggie]

G'morning, everyone!

Well, I see the new thread has started. I hope you don't mind me posting here once each day until the 30th, since I started last week's goal late. On Tuesday, I'll report whether I made it. And I'll pick a new goal today and join you all in the new thread, too.

Relatively easy vegan day yesterday. A guy from work made a snack run for everyone, and a girl got this rich, creamy coffee thing. I was tempted, but managed to get something vegan. Then I came home and hubby cooked dinner. I've been cooking up a storm the past four or five days. So he had me pick a recipe and then he cooked. Such a sweetheart! And he made the YUMMIEST curry potatoes, too.

Today might be hard because we usually go out to eat in the afternoon. Four days down, three days left. And I think four in a row is the most I've ever done before... Eeek!

Last day of this week's challenge for me. Did 60 min. belly dance video and a dumbell routine this morning. Hopefully I can get a walk in later. I love this fall weather!

So far so good with food. I'm determined to finish up the food part of my challenge in grand style, so barring anyone knocking me down and forcing me to eat junk, I'm going to call it a success.

PhotoGirl, I love 'Pilates For Dummies'! It's a great introductory video and I still use it very often. As a matter of fact, It's the one I'd reccommend for someone just starting! Enjoy! I'd love to hear how you like it.

M.N.J., I'm so inspired by your ab work that i'm thinking of incorpoating it into my next week's challenge!

FriendsForFitness, your dessert sounds relatively healthy to me actually. The angel food cake was low or fat-free, strawberries are great, cool whip isn't like lard or anything--so don't feel too bad about it. Its not like it was one of those 'death by chocolate' things! Just think of it as a small indiscretion---unless you had a bucket of it!

Greetings Sandybrat, Happy dance, RedBalloon, South. Butterfly, Aquareggie, Lavender Girl. Looking forward to this week!

Last day of the challenge! I seen we've already have a new thread started!! I will have to post my new challenge.

Yes, I succeeded in this weeks challenge!! Hurray!! I was hoping to do all 7 days, but I didn't. And that's ok.....which is why I love this challenge thread!! I was hoping to do 3-4 days of crunches and I managed to do 5. (this day isn't over yet... I may do some tonight)

Lisa- I'm with everyone. What you ate is not concidered "bad" dessert by any means!! Angelfood cake??!! That's good. You've done excellent ALL week and one day isn't going to hurt. Plus you're doing FANTASTIC on your 21 day challenge!!!

Well Morning to Sandybrat;Aquareggie,Lavender Girl,Southern- Butterfly,Happy dance, RedBalloon, and Eydie!!! Did I miss anyone??? Congrats to all of us for doing our weekly goal! Let's start the next week with happy smiling faces, knowing that we did it once and we can do it again, & again, & again.......

Take care ladies..
I will post at the new thread tonight.

Thanks for all the warmth over my boo-boo. I'm ok with it now. I'm glad everyone else succeed though! You all should be very proud. Either you make it or you don't. You all made it!

I can't sugar coat it and I don't expect anyone else to either, I know you all mean well, but the truth is that I did not accomplish my once a week challenge. I will this coming week though. I am going to accomplish my next week's challenge and prove to myself I can do it. As a matter of fact I think that I will make an adjustment to my own once a week challenges. If I do not succeed I must begin the next week's challenge with the same exact challenge until I do succeed! So there! It's in writing now, I've said it and it will be. See you on the new thread and good luck to everyone! You are all so wonderful!

Congrats to everyone else who completed their challenges and also to those who tried their best
