I feel that with this week I am finally starting to get into a good groove again. I feel like I sort of lost it for about a week and a half after hitting a plateau, but them I took measurements and realized that I lost a great amount of inches. I worked out 5 days, which is a great improvement for me. I'm feeling really bored with my diet, and a friend asked if I would do 21 day fix with her. I hate to change my routine after the first week, but I need a change after the last 6 weeks.
I love the challenges this week. I am going to work more on elbow planks and mountain climbers....I loath those two excersises and they are in my daily workout, so I am going to challenge myself to do more this week.0 -

Fitness Challenge: Pick an exercise that has always been challenging for you and conquer it this week. Try to best your time, distance, steps, repetitions, etc. It can be one particular exercise move (ex: plank), an entire workout (ex: Turbo Fire), or a certain length of time (ex: 1 full hour)!! The choice is yours.[/b]
For my fitness challenge, I'm increasing the speed for my run, today I increase it 10 mins and 5 mins per day, 3 days!0 -

Thanks Emily!! I'm starting round 2 of 21 day fix Monday. I lost 7 lbs in round 1. Hoping to do it again I've been planning my meals for the past few days. Hope you give it a try. It's great. I LOVE planks. They are so challenging but they are definitely one of my top 5 favs.0 -

I love the nutrition challenge. I have been in a rut for weeks.
Today is easy for me celery, romaine, and banana peppers.
My goal for the fitness challenge is to get to at least a 3 minute plank.

Hi Team The Big Butt Theory!
All weights have been entered for your team. Unfortunately there have been two people eliminated from the team this week, Scottbrianna19 and kwmama49 due to not submitting.
On a positive note, the team collectively has lost a total of 15.9 lbs! Well Done!!
We have a person travelling and unable to gain access to a scale. She has reported in that she will have a number for us as soon as she is home tomorrow. Once that is received winners will be announced.0 -

I hate to admit it but no burpees for me for the same reason. I could see myself falling on my face the first time I watched the video of one.

I don't understand how to put a "quote" into my post so that person knows I'm commenting on what they said.
Great job everyone on your accomplishments last week!0 -
