You guys have been doing so well at faithfully working out!! And it's good to see some more people joining!

I've been slacking really bad. However, even though I haven't had any dedicated workouts, I have been doing yard work almost every evening. Moving soil, planting stuff, weeding, etc. Not enough to count as a dedicated workout though. Also, I've been watching what I'm eating and have lost a total of 5 lbs since the beginning of May, so at least I'm making some progress toward my weight goal.

Here's to a new week!

Way to go Kariarari that 5lb is savage ..go you
this is such a great idea for a thread, its there in print so no excuses for me to slack off..

outdoor working is really good cos your working most muscles your not normally using.. plus as apparent from your weight loss if ya stop focusing intently on the loss it goes down... ( i hope some day i will stop hopping on and off the scales like a yo-yo haha)

here's to a new week... my aim is to stop eating mini Kit-Kats with the mindframe that there only small what harm...tut tut me..

Hi Everyone! I'd like to join in this thread too! I joined 3FC yesterday, and today I did Couch to 5k W1D2, and added about 15 minutes of extra walking.

Feeling good about making a change! Good luck to everyone

Exercise Goal: Exercise 6 to 7 times a week.
Progress: 5/84 complete
Weigth Goal: 170
Starting Weight: 191
Current Weight: 191

GalwayGirl - Kit Kats are the devil! (But Peanut M&M's are worse for me. They are my candy-covered chocolate crack!)

Laura - C25k is such a great program! I did it in college and it got me running in no time and relatively painlessly. (I'm kicking myself for giving it up!) I'm going to be doing Week 3 this week, so we will have to keep each other motivated!
