  • Reporting in for day 2!

    So far, not so bad...

    ~ Exercise - none due to a.m. headache (fear of head exploding while on elliptical and extra time spent having to clean it up made me abstain).
    ~ Food wise - not too shabby... shall make a good dinner tonight too as I have lovely, wonderful, scrumptious artichokes.
    ~ Attitude - A OK, still feel like I can do this!

  • Day 3/Tuesday
    Hmmm. Day 3! Here 'tis and JUST WANTED TO BRIEFLY REMIND ALL CAMPERS THAT WE CAN DO THIS!!!! IT IS NOT A QUESTION, IT IS A FACT! (BTW, I think this is a female drill sergeant, just add hair ... her name is Sgt. Vic)

    My Day Three Report

    Calories? 1790; Goal Met? WELL, OF COURSE!

    Gym? You bet!

    No Cupcake? Check!

    Gym Days Completed Since Joined (Personal Goal: 365)? 24

    Posting this kind of early, but done with eating for day and going to bed to read!


  • Day 2 - Pretty good.

    Exceeded goal in walking, gardening, water.

    Did not exceed goal in calories - about 1700 ish again today, healthy, well balanced, etc.

    Attitude - positively positive.

    Weigh in tomorrow - feeling confident despite Easter weekend. Two whole days op gives me all sorts of confidence.
  • Day Three
    Done!

    (how's that for brief? )
  • Still doing well despite being surrounded by food. Did a reception last night and I have a lunch for 50 people today. It'll be a long day and I'll report in later to say if I had the energy for working out!
  • Weigh in morning - or should I say reward morning?

    Demon scale said 211 (twice) this morning. First read said 210.8 and put me in shock. I think it was 213.2 last week so that would be down 2.2. Swoon!
  • Survived the day and had a couple of "indiscretions" along the way---but nothing too bad, just a couple of cookies! No big deal and I'm back to the business at hand. In spite of being exhausted when I got home, I hauled my carcass onto the treadmill and walked 3 miles and then weeded a bit in the garden.
    Looking forward to doing a full workout tomorrow!
  • Hoorah for Anagramatic's successful battle with Demon Scale!!!! WTG!!!

    Ok, I know the FEMALE drill sergeant promised only ME-ME posts, but I wisheth to congratulate and thank all the wonderful campers who preserverth here!!! Wildfire: Brevity be thy name!

    Eydie: Hoorah for the treadmill save!!!

    Punkin: How goes it?

    Arabella, Morrigan, Ms. W? Where be thou! Anyone I missed, apologies!

    Ok, how brief was that?

    Posting early, through eating for today!

    My Day 4 Report

    Calories? 1795; Goal Met? Roger, dodger!

    Gym? You bet (all cardio day ... one hour on treadmill, fantastic, I want one)!

    No Cupcake? Yahoo, no freakin' cupcake today!

    Gym Days Completed Since Joined (Personal Goal: 365)? 25 (only 340 to go)!!!!

    Weight is not significantly down but jeans are really loose, so expecting a happy meeting with Demon Scale this Sunday! Really getting strong and focused! I'm so focused it could be illegal!!!
  • Day Four
    Had a run-in with a chocolate egg. The egg won. So, as tired as I am and would love to have a bath and go read in bed....I'm lacing up my sneakers and getting on the treadmill. No one can do this for me! If it's to be, it's up to me....or however the saying goes.

    Anagram, congrats on two (point two!) pounds gone!

    And Amarantha with loose jeans!

    Okay, girls, just three more days till results day! Let's go for it!
  • Is it to late to jump in this week? Just heard about this great thread. I set new goals for myself after a difficult Easter.

    My goals:

    1. Keep under 1800 calories per day, after exercise.
    2. Minimum of 30 minutes of exercise each day
    3. Keep daily fats below 25%
    4. Get down to 190lbs. from the current 192.

    So far, so good this week. Did 35 minutes on the bike after figuring out that I can read 3FC journals while on the bike. I cannot believe my co-ordination Off to aerobics tomorrow. Thanks for the great words of encouragement.
  • Amended Day 4 Report!
    Welcome to our boot campy place, Simcoe!!! It be never too late 'cause every day counts in this game! Hoorah!!!

    Had run-in with several glasses of nonfat milk, some watermelon and a Luna bar just before midnight. Amended calorie to 2295 and no, didn't meet goal.

    Hits for week 3.5/Misses .5

    Am I discouraged? NO!!!

    Over and out!
  • Day 3 for me was pretty good as well. Ate healthy, didn't count though. Gardening was five minutes shy but walking was over goal. Watered me as well.

    Loose jeans rule! Punkin, hope you're feeling better today.
  • PFC Punkin' back from being MIA!

    No excuses yesterday - I was eating for comfort and made some bad choices. Today while feeling better I thought of other ways I could've handled it all and feel better prepared for the next time!
    Multiple grilled cheese sandwiches don't make you feel anywhere NEAR as good as one cup of sugar free hot chocolate with a bit of kalua!

    Isn't it all about learning????

    to Anagram for booting 2 fluffies to the curb and a hearty hoRAA and welcome to Simcoe!
