I'm gonna stay in track by focussing on routine - if I have a strict exercise routine then I can be flexible on the food side. I'm also looking very carefully at portion control and cutting right back on all processed foods
I'm scared of the oh's mum - she knows I have a weakness for toffees and at Xmas she sneaks bags and tins of them to me!
Oh god I want a toffee right now!0 -

WO -60 minutes (55 minutes of walking and 5minutes of stretching)
cals - 509
Reps -100
HIIT - 0
flex - 0 mins
Extra Movement: I walked all of Costco even though I knew exactly what I needed and where it was.
Weight: 124. Another gain. I am wrecked this morning. It is a combination of an increased appetite as I approach my half and poor food choices. I am also sore so there might be some water there as well. I am going to start making better food choices (popcorn at night instead of cheesecake). I am down 2 inches in the waist and an inch in the hips.0 -
Weight- no change
I expected this because of the harder workouts. Whenever they get harder, I gain water weight for sometimes a few weeks! I try to stay focused on how I feel vs the scale, but it's frustrating...
November 8th I actually did a real morning workout! Go me!
Workout: 55
Calories Burned: 425
Reps: 0 Did lots of reps in circuit training, but can't count and I'm too rubbery to do more.
Stretching: 10
HIIT: 10
For the holidays, I am going to amp up my workouts and be aware of what I am putting in my body. Moderation and move more!
Great job this week! :flowerforyou:0 -

Wolverines please can you give a warm welcome to xqueenbee24x and khadijaasafi... if you haven't seen this weeks, they coming from team Gecko, which Sheri has spilt up to keep the teams more even!
I will do the team breakdown later... one good thing is I woke up feeling a little better today it'll still be a rest day as I'm far from 100% and depending on the challenge I'll take tomorrow off also or maybe just do a light day like Shelly recommended and I love yoga...
Have an awesome weekend and well done to Faye, who has 4 weeks on the belt made the top ten - awesome work lady!!!!!0 -
@ Faye - congrats again on making the top 10, you are rocking this challenge

NOTE TO KELLY( glad youre on the mend) GILLIAN (migraines suck!)
I am now working nights so everything is going to be topsy turvey - I dropped out last year as it got all too much during the nights. I'm determined not to let history repeat itself this year! My workout time is now limited so I'm gonna try and fit things in when I can. My main problem will be Friday - I may need to be late getting my numbers in so I hope you will be lenient with me!!!
Weight x 12 : 1698 cals to burn this week
Good luck to everyone this week and to our newcomers!!0 -

@Shelly
Unfortunately Friday's numbers Have to be in by 10:00 am, otherwise they don't count. What you can do is either email Kelly or I with your numbers and don't worry about having to post them, that way we can ensure they are there for the required cut off.. I hope that helps
@ Kelly - love the Keep Calm, best version yet!

Hi Everyone,
I wanted to take a minute to introduce myself. My name is Bridget and this is my second time competing in one of Sheri's challenges. I just recently started a second job so I work 15 hours straight with a 1 hr break in between my two jobs. I am constantly on my feet and running around so I am in a HUGE adjustment period right now trying to figure out when I can fit in workout out and still allow myself to rest up and stay hydrated and nourished all at the same time. I hope that this challenge.... especially this week.... will allow me to stay focused and motivated enough to not get eliminated. I think the hardest part about this week for me will be the HIIT.... working two jobs and only having one set time to workout does not allow for me to get this type of workout in during my day.... but other than that I am trying to focus on my overall health and fitness goals and working all of that into my busy schedule.
With that being said I hope I can get to know more about all of you! Feel free to send me a friend request 0 -
Hi Bridget, thanks for introducing yourself, it's always nice to be able to put names to faces. It does indeed sound like you've got a busy time coming up, 15 hours is a lot of working. Hopefully it will all work for you. One of the best things is walking and it's easy to do anytime and anywhere..
Look forward to getting to know you better..
Cheers!

Hello everyone! Sorry I have been quiet the past couple of days. My middle daughter slipped and had a concussion, so I've been busy spoiling her and keeping an eye on her. She's much better now.

Finding hard to drink water on nights as I don't want to be constantly peeing if I'm stuck somewhere out of the office. Will endeavour to increase my hot water drinks.
@gilliam I'm hoping the time zone difference should allow me enough time to get everything in.0 -

While I was unable to force myself into logging last week I managed to have negative points for the week.... -14 actually.
I promise to make this week better not only with logging but with my over all food choices and exercise habits.
