    Over the sore calves only to wake up with sore thighs after having to catch up on three days yesterday. What's in store today . . . 100 SCISSORS!!! Gotta love these challenges!!!

    :):#:p;)

    Hahaha bless you! Amazing effort and dedication my dear. Scissors I can handle, crunches - my mortal enemy!

    Tomorrow looks like a bag of laughs too...


    My key to wall sits: I play Sudoku. Works like a charm.

    I took a rest day from all the abs and rake yesterday. So here goes days 11 and 12 day.
    Doing rake, all 3 abs. I can't wait to see my measurement in a few weeks, because I can already see the difference and my clothes is fitting looser.
    Thanks to all those who are giving me support comments. Have a wonderful day, your all doing a great job.

    Valentine's Day, also called Saint Valentine's Day or the Feast of Saint Valentine, is an annual holiday celebrated on February 14. It originated as a Western Christian liturgical feast day honoring one or more early saints named Valentinus, and is recognized as a significant cultural and commercial celebration in many regions around the world, although it is not a public holiday in any country.

    May St. Valentine's Day and every day, be filled with LOVE!

    It's almost mid February and I have done practically nothing. Yeaaaaa me. Perfecting procrastination? No just ridiculously busy.

    Been following just to at least be inspired by other folks dedication. !!!

    @klove808 Glad you're still around :wink:

    I'm sure you'll get caught up when things quiet down for you... even if it means coming at it in March again.

    I mean, I finally got the cleaning challenge done (in 2 days no less) and am feeling it in my arms and legs :flushed:

    Also started strong lifts 5x5 yesterday evening. Can I call in a leg day and whimper in pain? :tongue:
    Thankfully today is a rest day in general - not even a walk planned and a meeting with the physiotherapists tonight. Or I might seriously consider amputating something.
