Welcome back ladies! I hope everyone had a fantastic week 12.
FITNESS CHALLENGE:
This week's fitness challenge is to choose one of the links below and follow the program for the week (hopefully you'll be inspired to follow the program all the way through to its completion). Each fitness program asks you to take an initial test to gauge your fitness level and then asks you to work out 3 days a week with rest days in between. If you are really ambitious you could pick more than one of the challenges and do them on alternate days! Post your daily progress and what you think of the program.

FOOD / HEALTH / LIFESTYLE CHALLENGE
Eat the recommended servings of fruit/veggies every day this week. For most of us that's most likely 5 servings daily, but you can input your info on the link below to make sure.

BONUS CHALLENGE
Recruit a male member to PSB. :laugh: They might not be interested in being called a Plus Size Barbie, so they can be Plus Sized Ken (or Plus Size GI Joe, I don't care). It would be awesome for a guy secure enough in his masculinity to join us.

Leaving for Knoxville again on Tuesday. Funny thing is, I've been eating more healthy when I travel than at home lately. I spend more time away! When I'm only home for 2-3 days I never find the time for grocery shopping.0 -
I will wait until you post cuz I am already confused!! lol0

Ooh! Sounds fun! I'll look over the options and post tomorrow! Thanks :flowerforyou:0

Well, crap. Sorry. Shoot me a message with whatever you don't get and I'll try to explain it more clearly.0 -

You don't HAVE to do anything. :laugh:
If a challenge doesn't work for you, you're not required to do it. Sometimes a challenge gets posted that someone can't do so they come up with their own.0 -
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh ok, gooooootcha! SWEET!! i'll post my stuff 2morrow. sundays r a bit busy. lol. yeah, my programs r gonna consist of 1 round of insanity, 2 rounds of p90x & while doin p90x i'll b joggin b/c i'll b trainin 4 a half-marathon in december. hehehe.
so i'll just skip the workout programs in the meantime LOL!0 -
I guess I don't get those programs. Is it 200 sits up a week or 200 sit ups 3 times a week? I wish it could have been last week since I did 320 sit ups with my trainer on Friday. We are focusing on core right now since hell I lost more inches off my arms then my waist and that just isn't right.0

Open one of the links and read about the program. It helps build you up to being capable of 200 consecutive exercises like Couch to 5K builds you up to being capable of running 3.1 miles without stopping. You do a little more each week and build up your strength.
Below description posted directly from the situp website:
"If you're serious about increasing your core strength, follow this six week training program and you'll soon be on your way to completing 200 consecutive sit-ups!
Think there's no way you could do this? I think you can! All you need is a good plan, plenty of discipline and about 30 minutes a week to achieve this goal!
No doubt some of you can already do 100 consecutive sit-ups, but let's face it, you're in a big minority. Most of you reading this won't even be able to manage 20 sit-ups. Actually, I'm sure many of you can't even do 10.
However, it really doesn't matter which group you fall into. If you follow the progressive sit-ups training program, I'm positive you'll soon be able to do 200 sit-ups!"
I'm not going to post the entire site, but escentially you take an initial test to see how many consecutive exercises you are capable of. That determines at which week in the program you can start. You might be able to skip Week 1 if you are already past the fitness level and that week wouldn't be a challenge for you.0 -
ok, i think i got this. since i'm startin with PSB in the 13th wk, that's where i'll begin.

Didn't have a chance to start the challenge yet this week and really don't plan on doing much more than sleep for the rest of the day. I promise there is a good reason...
The last 24 hours really couldn't get much worse (let's hope I didn't just jinx myself). A tornado hit my condo complex last night while I was packing for Knoxville, after the tornado passed I had to drive around the trees in the streets to get to my mom's house (she was home alone with a broken leg) where the basement was flooding, came home and finished packing in the dark because the power was out, and then got about 2 hours of sleep before leaving for the airport. To add insult to injury I find out that I got my period when I checked in to my hotel. I'm on depo and this is the second time I've had a period in over two years. It only comes when I'm under extremely high stress. I think this qualifies.
I care about you guys and would appreciate if you took the time to read this thread:

Sorry I've been MIA - I work from home and when the weekend comes I dont like to get on the pc for any reason. Anyway, i will try to do something this week, anything is better than what I have done. (which is nothing) I will get out of my rut and join the fun i guess i need a swift kick in the booty to get started. i am trying - but as i always heard the path to hell is paved with good intentions - so i guess i better just get up and get to it!
personal goal this week: walk at least 2 days & drink more water (even if it is the addin flavored water)
