    Done my first workout video. Walking with Leslie. Going to do the biggest loser workout later today. Also going for a walk. I hope shaking things up will get me out of the 250’s been there to long. But I will be happy with any loss it means I am going in the right direction. Waiting on the doctor to see if a April date for going back to doable.

    Monday check-in
    Calories - so far so good
    Water - not good :s
    Exercise - 60 min lifting

    Tough day and my motivation was low. I'm considering it a success that I got myself to the gym and did something.

    Week 2 Weigh In
    Previous: 151.2
    Current: 153 >:)

    All of your hard work will pay off once again - I have no doubt!

    I must say, I gave in to vacation food the last 4 days of the week or so. It'll be ok now that I'm back home, I think. Thanks for the encouragement though.

    Hey steppers, it looks to me like we are short two competitors in the Step Challenge. I just looked at the spreadsheet, and some teams have 12 members, but we only have 10 listed on the January sheet. I'm not sure who is heading this up, but thought I'd bring it to the attention of the group.

    If you don’t see a loss this week, you will most likely see a significant loss next week. Don’t give up! You are putting in the work, it will pay off. I truly believe your system is just adjusting.

    Monday check in...

    Calories fabulous
    Water finally good
    Exercise: still failing miserably here but I have faith I will get back to it as my old routines/habits settle back in. I haven’t forgotten that I want to concentrate on weight training this month. My 32 lb daycare baby is back so carrying him up and down the stairs will help. 😉
    Goal for tomorrow. More of the same but hope to fit some exercise in.

    Sunday check in

    Calories-over
    Water-over
    Exercise-4 mile run

    My PF is flaring up-going to keep my activity down for the week

    Mine has been bad too since starting these treadmill workouts. I bought some new her cushions yesterday so will try the treadmill tonight and see if they help. But maybe I am aggravating it?? I don’t know - still trying to figure it out.

    Have you tried freezing a small bottle of water and then rolling your foot over it several times a day. It doesn't cure it but it does help

    I’ve started using ice, resting every other day, stretching and i bought these new heel cushions. I’m hoping the pain subsides this week.

    Wow! That will definitely get your body warmed up for some strength training!

    Calories: I was under today, for real! I weighed everything and was super diligent about entering things properly in my diary. I’m super curious about what the scale will say
    Water: not enough but not horrible
    Exercise: only 8K steps or so. I tried to do a treadmill workout but my 5 year old sabotaged it. At least she got some time in right? I like that she wants to exercise with me so I try not to discourage her from “my time.”

    Goal for tomorrow:
    1. Plan my food after I finish my check in
    2. Drink one more thing of water at work (the thing is a big Starbucks reusable drinking cup I got in Maui)
    3. Go to my chiropractor appointment (my self care for the day)
    4. Get 1000 more steps in tomorrow than I did today
