Eny, I'm picturing working out with the cans of peas, but hey it works! I use 3 lb weights and I think that is the best, anything else is too much plus its not like i'm trying to get big muscles. Let me know when you start again, I finished day level 1 day 2 today.
JasonsLea, Oooh I have a wii fit and love it. I dont know how much it reall gets your heart rate up on most stuff but it does keep you active and its fun. Plus they are coming out with more fitness stuff. Jillian Michaels made a fit game for it that comes out in a month or two. I also use it to track my exercise and weight goals.
Well one more day OP and and another day of exercise! Tomorrow is my day off of exercise. Friday nights mean relaxation and a glass of wine for me.
TORI
I'm going to restart 30DS tonight Level 1 again. I'm going to do it every other day though, and not everyday. I'm feeling MUCH better today! Enjoy the glass of wine tonight too!
ok, so i decided to do this because Im tired of falling off the wagon and going to eat something bad for me. I think and feel this will be the only thing to keep me on track.
I printed a picture of me in just my bra and shorts and am going to keep the picture in my pocket at all times. felling that if Im going to eat something bad, then I'll take it out and look at it. and remind myself that I dont want to look like this any longer.
Lindsay, don't be discouraged. This is such a hard thing to do, but you can lose that weight. Please don't give up because you've had a rough stretch. And take care of that ankle!!!!
Eny made my day when she pointed out that I lost 3 lbs this week instead of 2. Happy I lost that extra pound, but I think I'm losing my short term memory too!
Enjoy that glass of wine tonight! I might even join you. Last week, I treated myself and had a spritzer on the weekend. It's actually a pretty crummy thing to do to a nice glass of wine, but it still felt like a treat.
Enjoy the weekend everyone . . . but not TOO MUCH!!
Sorry Team Bat--I'm exactly the same! Again! I've been yo-yoing the same 2 lbs. but have managed to always get back down by weigh-in day. Next week, I promise I'll show a loss.....
Hey skeletons, sorry, no loss this week. If I had weighed in yesterday I would have had a 1 lb. loss but nooooooo, I had to wait til my official day to report and what do i get for it? a gain of 1 pound. Phooey! But it's water weight, so it will come off next week. There's no way I gained 2 pounds in 1 day staying on plan all week. But I did change plans AGAIN so that probably accounts for the water - I'm eating stuff I wasn't eating before that bloats me.
Well, I guess it was two pounds of surgery-related water weight after all. Back down to 215. I'm sure not exercising enough to lose two pounds otherwise.
Eny, I changed my weigh-in day from Sunday to Friday. I hope that doesn't mess things up for you. I didn't want to keep waiting a few days to weigh in after seeing everyone else's weights.
Congratulations to all those who have lost! For those who haven't, don't get discouraged!
Well team dracula I can report a 1 lb lost. I'm actually happy about this considering my parents were in town and we had a mini vacation. I'm going to work extra hard this week!
Lindsay, You just need to get right back on the wagon, you are doing so well and its ok to slip up but not ok to give up. Get your ankle checked out but even if you cant really exercise you can still control your diet.
Eny, Congrats on the gigantic loss. Did you start 30DS again today. Oh and I am enjoying my glass of wine right now.
Flagirl, Vivian, Way to go on the awsome loss. thats huge!
Jo, April, Way to go on the 1 lb loss, I'm right there with you and happy to see the scale going down.
Ufi, Glad your feeling better quick.
To All, lets all be strong for the weekend and use any extra time to get in at least 1 extra tough workout in. Thats my goal. My long tough workout is going to be tomorrow.
That's a great idea Tori! I will take that challenge. My workout will have to be today. Tomorrow, we're going apple-picking, then out to dinner with some friends. I already looked at the menu online and have decided what I'm going to have. And hopefully, walking around the orchard all morning will be a bit of a workout. Have a great day everyone!
tmil - i didn't start it last night... I have a billion excuses on why - but really it boils down to laziness! I LOVE your extra workout idea.. I'm going shopping w/ DD today for a dress for her for the wedding... and that'll be a TON of walking - and I'm still going to workout tonight!!!
April - you did weigh in for week #2 already. don't worry about being frazzled.
Ufi - weigh in what ever day floats your boat. just make sure to PM me by Friday night!
Ok I'm going to post the Week #2 results...
