Count me in. This is just the sort of thing that I need to motivate myself. My challange is going to be to complete Week 3 of the couch to 5k program. I started earlier this week and I am having a hard time even doing week one. I have only been able to do 4 of the intervules. So completeing week 3 by the 4th should be a real challange for me.

Good Luck everyone

Good Morning Friends!

I'm undecided on my goals for this challenge. Despite my hard work lately I appear to be temporarily stuck. I really want to kick things into high gear this next month. I will be in FL the last week of June for a college/sorority reunion and I want to look and feel my best! I guess my goal is to completely stay in the "game" mentally and physically!

So, what's everyone doing today to work towards your goals?

Me....I carefully planned out my food for work with my little cooler of breakfast and snacks to get me through the day. I buy my lunch in the cafeteria, but it's always healthy...I get a stirfry with chicken and lots of veggies! Tonight's dinner is not officially planned, but I believe it will be some leftover chicken and grilled veggies. Tonight I will be at the gym for cardio - 45 min on the treadmill followed by some abs and stretching. I also want to make some time to read Tom Venuto's Body Fat Solution - I've been browsing through it and love what he has to say, just have to find the time to sit down with it!

Ok...ramble over. Gotta put on my work hat for now.

Later chicks!

Im in for this challenge.

So I will go to my college gym class every scheduled day and work out the whole time not gab.

I will workout at home when I dont have class.

I will turn the TV and Computer OFF for 6 hours during the time my husband is at work and move instead of sit.

Woohoo, we are getting some new challengers on this one, so if this is your first CC Holiday Challenge, and welcome back to all returning challenge junkies (lol)!

Lori, thanks on the handstand. I was totally shocked that I could hold the handstand at all, even with help getting up there. Now that I know I won't fall on my head, I feel like it's just a matter of practice (and nerves ) till I can kick up into a handstand all by myself. That's the theory, anyway, lol. BTW, I like that song you were singing...that's a good song to jamskate to.

Well, I'm still sick with some bronchitis or similar PITA thing that has me coughing all night and can't breathe half the time. Annoying! I've tried working out, but anything that requires heavy breathing just turns into a coughing fit. So, I've just been trying to make up for missed workouts by doing a couple hours of yard work every day. It's not quite the same, but it's something, and I have been sticking to my eating plan. I really miss going to the CF gym, but can't use up the rest of this month's training cuz of being sick and contagious. Hmmph!

Hopefully, the crud will be gone in a few more days, and life can get back to normal. I might try another workout this evening when it cools off a little, and see if I can do SOMEthing resembling a workout without choking to death. Once you get addicted to working out, it's like torture not being able to do it!
