Welcome Claudine!

Well my chickies, Week 1, day 3 done! :woohoo: Come on Monday, I want to do it again!

Hope everyone has a super duper weekend!

So I had a retreat this weekend and usually any change of my routine messes me up completely. However, I realized early enough last week that I'd have to modify my workouts that I got in all my workouts before leaving (and got in lots of walking during the retreat and saw the ocean). This week I have to continue my modification before I can get back on track this coming weekend.

I added heavier wrist weights to my aerobics workout (a dvd video) and so my arms and core got an extra workout. I am still at about 66 pushups and will stay there until I adjust to the new weights. My core is strengthening while losing weight so that's cool. I've figured out ways to increase pushups in my dvd workout so I can add when I get there. I'll have to--eventually--stop my dvd workout and do more pushups later on in order to try to make 100. We'll see. I hear John saying he seemed to plateau. I'm going to try but not worry if at some point my body says--"that's the limit". It's just fun to see the number that I currently can do and hope to raise a bit more.

iara: keep up the excellent work! Good for you for recognizing the issues early and modifiying your program.

How's everyone else doing? Did you all fall off the wagon, or just too busy doing pushups to post?
I'm moving on to a successful Week 2, Day 2 tomorrow.

Take care!
