Well, the diagnosis on the foot is TWO broken toes!! Good news is that this will heal more quickly than if I had damaged ligaments, AND I have an air cast which really helps. I think that I can even do stairs - we'll see how that goes later this week :ohwell:
Here are my stats for Sunday and Monday:
SUNDAY
Workout 60 minutes (Turbo Chair)
Calories burned 380
Core reps 100 (Abdominal crunches)
Stair reps - 0

MONDAY

Melissa, if the stairs do turn out to be a problem let us know and we will see what else we can figure out for you to do in lieu of same. Do feel better

Sorry to hear that! BUT very glad that there are no damaged ligaments. Hope you will soon heal.:flowerforyou:
HOWEVER, please go carefully! If stairs hurt you too much, stop! We really don't want you doing more damage. As Mary said, I am sure Sheri would accept something else in place of stairs if you really can't do them.0 -
SHERI HAS POSTED THE FOLLOWING CLARIFIERS:
**ANY Bonus points I put up in the challenge week will just run the duration of the challenge - So Sunday - Friday morning (unless I specify different)
**Stairs need to be in lots of 25 MINIMUM to count towards your stairs....you don't need to do 100 at a time but the points will be counted only for every 100 done at the end of the week - so No partial points if you complete 550 - you get just 25 points for 500
** AND also was a question - It is CORRECT the stairs do NOT count towards ANYTHING ELSE BUT STAIRS!!!
Hope that is clear. If not, just ask!0 -
AND ONE OTHER POST FROM SHERI:
"Wellll I DO SUCK!!! This is supposed to be a Holiday Challenge....And there is a Holiday This Week! And I Didn't Give you guys a Halloween Challenge!! Grrrrr!!! Tooooo late for me to Make You Do One For the Challenge....soooo I will just give you a Personal Challenge....TRY NO UNPLANNED Candy Snacking!!! AND No Unplanned Buying Candy for your House!!! Its for the Trick or Treaters!!! The Candy is EVERYWHERE....you just have to control the urge to grab a handful without thinking!! THINK FIRST!! PLAN a piece or 2 of candy Into Your Days Calories...Don't completely deprive yourself if its in your face and you love it....but Be VERY Mindful!! Please post on the main page your victories if you ran across the temptations! Hoping most will see this - or team leaders will take it back to their page. REMEMBER....Just cuz there is Halloween Candy out....It Is NOT the last bit of candy on the planet!! It will allll still be there tomorrow, next month, next year...I think we have a tendency to forget that around the holidays. Good Luck over this tempting holiday week!!!"0 -

For today's inspirational post, here are some fun facts about FAT! Here's to losing it in all the right places!
Fat cells exist in all parts of the body except the eyelids, parts of the esophagus, the brain and the penis.
Female breasts are composed almost entirely of fat which is one reason why, when dieting, they tend to reduce in size long before you lose the wobble elsewhere!0 -

Not a hope my dear Bellsouth18 ... you can try but we sharks are determined to do it right this week.Hello everyone! My husband and I went on a mini-vacay to Myrtle Beach Sat-Mon so I'm kinda behind but here goes,
Kristie how lovely, enjoy the sun for me, sitting in my kitchen looking out at a very rainy and windy morning.
Pam - well done on getting the low sodium recipe done ... I have yet to do this, but I have added your 25 points.
Let's keep the good news rolling in. Go sharks go!

… And my inspiration for today ….
It's never too late to become what you might have been. -George Eliot :smokin:
Each day is a new opportunity to get it right.
We can do this! You can do this! I can do this! :flowerforyou:0 -

Where's the 'discipline' tab? That's what I need!
Today's gonna be another hard day...:sad:0 -
^^^^ I need the patience tab today! So incredibly tired. Slept badly last night (all sorts of reasons) and because I just couldn't get back to sleep by 5am I gave up and went for an early morning run. That made me feel better, but now I am feeling incredibly tired and have started snapping at everyone! Oh dear! Still a lot of the day left before bed time :yawn:
Here is my TUESDAY:
WORKOUT: 60 minutes (30 minutes circuit training, 20 minutes training with weights (arms and lower body) and a short 10 minute aerobics session)
Calories burned: 485
(50 minutes to go (did that this morning, so will go for more team minutes for the rest of the week) and already met personal calorie goal, so aiming for the team one now)
CORE REPS: 50 sit-ups
(Still have 200 core reps to go)
STRETCHING: 5 minutes today
(3 more days to go)
STAIRS: none today
(650 to go to get max points)
Good deed: Need to post this on main page still, but spent yesterday with my best friend whose husband has just been fired and they now need to leave here. Very sad, and she and he were very discouraged. Long story and lots of injustice there :explode: , but I was able to spend the afternoon being a listening ear and telling them that the lies spoken about them are untrue and that they have done so much that is positive here. They said it helped, so I hope that is true. The next 3 weeks (until they leave) is going to be hard and sad
Paying it on seems to have helped them, but I am feeling more than a little emotional about it all.

Just realised how negative my last post sounded, so in an attempt to be positive today:
This morning I went for a run and managed 7km :happy: One of the challenge goals I posted for myself the other week was to get back to running 8km in under an hour. My intermediary goals are 8km by end of November and the "in under an hour" bit by the end of December. This mornings run was only 1km short and I have a month in which to build up. Feeling it is possible now :happy:0 -
And in a similar vein, today's encouragement:

We are doing pretty good so far Sharks. Looking at the chart and we are over halfway to our team goals for reps and calories burned. Now to get all of those crazy minutes in.
The scale smiled at me this morning and I'm going to work to make sure it keeps smiling at me.0 -
