NightAngel, what I meant by no-no foods is anything junk food, such as chips, soda, etc. I really need to cut soda/pop out of my diet completely.

Thank you pixikat - yeah what you wrote makes sense. I've done enough real pushups and enough knee pushups(lately) to know that what you're saying is right; it's not the same thing. I'll try some inclined ones somewhere. I'm just glad to be out moving around and not having lower back problems etc.

hi everybody

I had a mega dumb exercise day yesterday: I ended up not running because it rained, so I decided to do a home workout DVD. Thing is, heating and hot water was broken at my dorm last night, so I changed into workout clothes, goose bumps all over, started the workout and then realized I won't even be able to shower afterwards. So I was like, naaah, thanks!! It was stupid but it really wouldn't have been worth it. Water and heating is back today and I already went for a run So, happy day!

kelijpa I'm sure it's your high of the year... keep going!

boatingmommy trashing the junk food was a good moove. I do it too. It's absolutely dumb and throwing away perfectly good food is totally unethical, but I think sometimes it needs to be done.

Sum38 nice woosh! wooohoo!

Woodstock I'm glad to see you're back. Hope you feel better soon!

NightAngel26 your kid is ADORABLE!! hahaha, yeah, maintaing a diet is dumb! I think shrinking your stomach kinda does work - or at least I feel like if I eat smaller portions for a longer period of time, I get full quicker. I'm trying to do it right now - I will stay at school for the next 2 months and considering it's closer to exams not many social events. Should work fine!

Jacqui_D and gardenerjoy : yeah, my town does have a public library but it's not a study environment. Even though everybody is quiet, there is still a lot of movement as people are browsing. I did really well at home yesterday though Unplugged the internet, cleaned up before I started, and then put my butt down. I'll survive till Tuesday It's just inconvenient.

Great job Sum must feel wonderful breaking into the next decade after being stalled so long last month.

NightAngel your little guy is adorable, congrats!

Jacqui you're making great progress!

WorkingLikeaDog great job resisting the snacking urge, I find that's a great indicator to me that I'm working my program. If I'm not fighting the urge, I'm probably eating something I shouldn't

PixiKat and Darius I'm doing the knee push-ups, too, I really haven't been able to transition at all to regular push-ups, like sometimes I can't even do one! So today I tried to do one using a bench, not sure I was in the right position and since I did arms yesterday I could really feel it, so I tried against the wall it actually felt like a good stretch for my tight arms so I did 10 and will figure out a way to incorporate the incline in place of some of the knee ones. I do planks as well, love them for overall toning.

183 great job overcoming your challenges back at school, great idea unplugging the internet to focus, I was wondering about the public library, too, but you've found a solution and with the exercise as well, glad to hear your heat and hot water are fixed, what a drag!

to everyone I missed, I read everything, this month's challenge is amazingly busy, I guess that's to be expected with the new year. Let's keep it going!

Great job everyone
