Im trying to stay below 1500 cal. with no fast food or junk food...

I normally do weigh once a week on fridays, but I weighed on the 1st to give me a start for the Slim in 6 and it threw me off. I am better now though

I did swim for about an hour this evening (June 3rd) and it was mostly laps

Default Day 4 (done)

Ramp It Up (Phase 2)


I hate floor exercises , I have too much booty (and thighs) to be doing leg raises


ExtrinsicRapture: I remember thinking about Thurman Body Makeover when it first came out, most of the reviews I found (internet) thought it was to much planning. So, I decided to pass, but I hope it works for you.


Theotherjen: I always did want to learn how to swim, I might learn later after I lose some more weight.

Have a wonderful day Ladies

ONLY1SPECIALK: Swimming is fabulous, you must learn!!! I was basically taught by the good ol sink or swim method, but just moving in the water is good exercise in itself

Ladies, it is HOT. Its like 95 out here and I had to help my sister move her stuff out of a place with no A/C...well, no electricity...so I got my exercise walking up and downstairs, carrying furniture and packing boxes...took like an hour or two...I count that as exercise for today

I hope you all are doing well...stay cool

Default Day 5 (rest)

Taking my day of rest. Yesterday, I ate too much or more than I wanted to calorie wish. But that is how I get in trouble, I found something good to eat that is low in calories and I continue to eat it cause it was so good, now I've gone over my calorie limit.


Theotherjen: sink or swim , I'm worried I might continue to sink. Anyway, one day I will learn. I'm going to add that to my "To Do List" within the next 5 years.


I'm out of here Ladies, have a blessed day!

Well I am still OP...and exercising for a change. I love these challenges cuz they really keep me thinking and on track. I know I will have a pretty sweet loss this week and I am changing my WI to fit in with this challenge to keep things simple. Soooo, I will be on the scale in the morning and I should have some pretty good news to report


Rosie and ONLY1- I know y'all are gonna get right back on track...don't even stress about it You'll just know better next time.

Default Day 6 (done)

Firm CardioStep


Thanks, Theotherjen, I stopped stressing. I was a good girl yesterday, unlike Rosie and I'm doing good today. You are doing great, you got me excited too about your weigh in tomorrow.

Rosie, like Theotherjen, said don't stress it. You can redeem yourself by getting back on program and go exercise---TODAY!!


Since, I will be off tomorrow, I can study my picture posting problem. Be good Ladies!

Good going Jen!

Seeing as though I had a dumb weekend I'm up .8 making that 337.8.
You had me laughing ONLY1SPECIALK with your commentaries. Yeah I was a bad girl but then again I usually am

Anyways, I got my eating plan last nite and I'm starting today!

I'll even go exercise right before I go to class this morning. Happy, K? hehe

Oh I won't do inches till the halfway challenge mark.

Default Day 7 (done)

Bun & Thigh Pilates

I kept it light today, leg was bothering me (another reason I need to get this weight off ).

Theotherjen you did great! Keep it up

ExtrinsicRapture, 0.8 gain is not bad for a busted week-end.

Also, I'm not weighing/measuring again til the half way mark

Default Week 2, Day 1(done)

Buns&Thigh Pilates


Doing another day of Pilates, that stretching seems to help my leg and tomorrow I'll be back with regular exercies (hopefully )

Also, I'm thinking of moving towards lo-carb dieting. I'm more in control of my eating when I reduce my carbs.

Have a Great Day, Ladies!

Thumbs down

Okay well yesterday went fine on my new plan. Today I ate WAY too many carbs. I had like 2 bagels. Okay may not seem like much but we all know bagels are HUGE. I'm not in huge despair. It was just a high level day today. I worry about so much. And I have the worst migraine. I couldnt even go to class today. The light was giving me this piercing feeling in my head. It's felt like someone has their palms at my temple and is just pressing hard in an effort to flatten my brain lol. I was supposed to do some pilates or even stretching myself but this headache isnt cool and as it got hotter it got worse for me. Well onward to tomorrow...wish me faith lol

Default Week 2, Day 2(done)

Stationary Bike

My eating was terrible yesterday, actually I was "good" all the way up to 8PM. I only had time to eat breakfast before work (no lunch) and I was depressed about how my blinds for my house turned out that when I got off work (7:30pm), I just ate and ate.


ExtrinsicRapture, hope you're feeling better!

Rosie- I know exactly how you feel. I have had migraines since I was very small and some days I just can not function between the light sensitivity, the nausea and the blurred vision. Staring at a computer for 10 hours a day just don't happen. Its all I can do to get home, take a super hot bath and go to bed. Exercise just has to wait sometimes. Peppermint oil seem to help to relieve the pain and will relax you. At least it does for me I hope you are feeling better now though

Well the migraine's lessened. Still remnants of headaches. Yesterday was an okay eating day, still need to get a hang off this particular eating plan. Aside from that one day I exercised the other day...I still havent done otherwise. Maybe later today. Thanks for the well wishes. but with all the stress and b.s. and i'm sure i'll have plenty of other migraines.
