Hi... no work-out this morning. I am at staff development so I took the opportunity to sleep in and wake up with my kiddos (I am usually at work by the time they wake up). Sorry to say that I gained a pound for this weigh-in. I am not upset as I got AF yesterday and I have muscle soreness this morning from my run last night (sooo need new shoes). That means the pound is all water weight and will be gone by next week.
New weight: 123.60 -
Haha! How cool is that hand! You are a super creative mummy!0

Weight- 153.4- Up- but I feel thinner and have some muscle soreness- so hoping it is water weight.
Flex- 5 minutes
Sorry for the lateness- our power has been out due to a severe wind storm and downed tree.

I love heels, I have these lovely pair that I've only worn out once with my dress that looks awesome on me when I'm in the 120/130 weight range..my dress is my goal - I love it, I often try it on, it fits now but looks better when I'm smaller!!!! Other than this I love my hair when I straightening it, I have a similar cut to Rachel / Friends - I normally wear an up-do as it's easier to maintain through the day as I'm normally here, there and everywhere but it just looks awesome and silky when I do it properly!
You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserves your love and affection! Buddha
I though that quote was perfect for today
ETA - I almost forgot I always feel awesome in my running kit, proper bad-*kitten*... although I prefer my short sleeved running top but burrr it's getting to cold for that!0 -

Halloween time is so nutty in our house. Our middle daughter turned 8 on November 1st, and the poor thing woke up to the power being out until about noon. We missed morning swim class, but made the most of the rest of the day. It sure makes for a long couple of days between the two events!
QOTD (Friday) I feel good when I put on make-up. I don't wear it very often anymore because I work from home and it's a pain to take off, but I do feel sexier and more pulled together when I have it on. I prefer a fairly heavy black-lined eye with mascara and not much else besides a light BB cream and a touch of blush. 0 -

Congratulations to the top 10 finishers! :flowerforyou:
Team leaders- after looking over the requirements for this week, I'm afraid I am going to have to bow out of the challenge. I have stress fractures in both of my feet that are easily aggravated with high impact workouts- specifically bouncing and jumping exercises. I hurt one so badly during TurboFire HIIT before my daughter was born that I ended up in a cast for weeks, and that's something that just can't happen again when I have a baby counting on me. Since I know that I won't be able to do the HIIT portion of the challenge without hurting myself (they are already feeling off from doing the extra stairs), I think it's only fair to drop out now. Seriously bummed and very sorry, but you guys have been great and SO inspiring!
I'll be watching and cheering you on! Go Wolverines! 0 -
Congratulations to Kelly and Gillian Awesome work you 2:) And everybody else on the top 10 and to everybody who completed the challenge
@Artemis: Maybe we can find a substitute for you, example: fast military walk to increase your heart rate, then normal walk... it doesn't require impact. I am sure other members may adjust depending of their health conditions. The important in HIIT is to increase your HR, and get a very short recovery before going back into it. We can wait for Kelly & Sheri to decide, but I sure do not see it as a problem for you to continue the challenge. Some people using the treadmill may increase the slope during the high intensity, and then go back to a more flat slope... Don't give up!
@all: one more day, and then I get 2 days off.... I almost can't believe it. I have been working 2 jobs for 6 weeks now, worked every single weekend for the past 6 weeks, did not get days off on some weeks, sometimes 1 only. I am dead beaten. I honestly don't know how I kept up with the challenge, but it is such a motivation! I should be more present on the team page, which makes me really happy.

@ Dar - I've just sent you one as well. Great minds and all that.
But the gist is, I have to amend high rep cardio because of my knees, and I do jumping jacks and high knee raises seated, still get the great workout, but no damage to joints.. I'm sure you will be able to find something that will work, if you wish to stay involved..
Cheers..0 -
Dar is all sorted, she will be doing her HITT workouts on the elliptical!!!!
So let's get ready to rock this week!!!!!!0 -
@ All Wolverines:
Suggestions for EM (Extra Movements)
take the stairs instead of the lift
Park further away at the supermarket and then take the trolley all the way back to the shop
Walk to the coffee shop
Park further out of town and walk in
Walk and carry groceries (if you live close enough to a supermarket)
When unloading a car full of groceries, take one bag in at a time and go back and forth several times instead of one or two.
Same with putting away groceries, put one item away at a time and go back and forth
Laundry you can do the same. I'll clean out the laundry hamper upstairs, go downstairs put the laundry in the washing machine, go back up for the rest of the load, etc.
Instead of washing floors with a broom/mop, get on your hands and knees and do it by hand. (with a towel of course)
Hand rake leaves instead of using a leaf blower...
almost anything that requires you to take extra steps, carry an extra load, for example, would count as an extra movement.
If anyone has anything else to suggest, let us know.. Let's have an awesome week Wolvies.. 0 -
