    today i will be starting my regular walking routine...meaning i haven't been on my regular walking route for quite awhile...PLUS it's a cheat day for me...so the weekends are cheat days...my walking routine is so close to starbucks and i haven't had starbucks since they had that special going on for the week or weekend of half price frapps...i sorta kinda wish there were coupons or a punch card for those...lol...buy so many and get one free after the punch card is filled...lol...i'll be smart and still check out the calorie intake of course by going online and see if they have a nutrition value and mark that down...even though its the weekend i'm still measuring my food and checking out the calorie intake

    No problem.....just seems a lot of us have bad knees,,,,

    How about we do 30 minutes "extra" of outdoor activity.....playing (hard) with your kids, gardening, running, walking! Something other than your normal routine, but outside to get you breathing the fresh air!!! ;) Just a suggestion!

    Hey! I hope everyone had a good weekend. I'm posting a little late & didn't see what the challenge was until now, but I will also do an hour tomorrow. I think this weeks challenge is a really good idea! I love being outside anyways. lol I'm down 3.5 lbs this week which I'm really happy about! Tomorrow is my birthday and of course everyone wants to go out to eat and celebrate with drinks and birthday cake! lol So it should be a challenge, but I'm determined to stick to my calories for the day, and I already told everyone no birthday cake this year- we're having angel food cake & strawberries instead! And I'll just have one or two drinks and if we go out to eat I'll get something healthy. I'll let you guys know how I do tomorrow! Good job everyone on your weight loss!! :smile:

    Are we continuing with last weeks challenges??


    Monday- 4 c. water, no eating out, 0 fruit/ 0 veggie
    Tuesday- 6 c. water, no eating out, 0 fruit/ 2 veggie, 200-225 crunches (Ab Ripper X), 128 push-ups, 50 lunges (each leg)

    I'll see what I can manage to do today... my stupid knee is really sore (hurt it at soccer). Not fun at all.. No exercise means I earn no extra calories to eat. I'm also battling a cold so not feeling so hot in that department either.

    Weighed in and lost 2.9 lbs since last week. I might go back to weighing in weekly instead of monthly.

    Wow I don't know why I self sabotage myself I have a great week and weigh then go and blow it are you serious whew I failed at my plan of keeping the rest of the week clean let me try this one more time Wed-Sun will be good that's a promise to myself I deserve better than this!! This was why I was scared to weigh and look because I get happy and think I am suppose to celebrate with food!!
