My goal this week is to drink more water. and though to some it may not relate, another goal is to read the Bible more . I had my phone on YouTube while eating lunch with my son today and I was thinking about my dieting. I played a song I hadn't listened to for a while and it made me weep. it's about doing it all yourself and then realizing God is your strength and will help you through. there was another song too. I'm going to post them in my profile as soon as I can find the words and time ti put them on. so more water and more God time are my goals this week
That is a great goal to read the Bible. The refreshing words can provide spiritual motivation that will aid in everything we do, especially, giving us the courage to complete this challenge. Have a blessed day!0 -
As I type this, I am sweaty and more than a little proud. Physical challenge complete!! :happy:
I decided instead of breaking it up into smaller chunks, I would just knock it all out at once (took me about 20 minutes). I did the beginner one (or whichever one wasn't the advanced version). I did adjust the push-ups (I object to the term "girly/girl push-ups) to better accomodate the fact that I have the upper body strength of an infant - still a great workout on the arms! Crunches and lunges were fairly easy; crunches are one of my favorite exercises and the lunges I did to the beat of whatever song was playing.
It was only when I got to the wall sits that I had a lot of difficulty. Oh, I got them done, but am I glad I'm the only one home...my aunt would not have been happy about the contant stream of swear words I was producing! I haven't done wall sits regularly since February when I was training for a marathon (that never got done)...MAN! I set my timer for 30 seconds, only to realize I'd have to break it up into 10 seconds at a time. :frown: What a reality check!
On my second 24 oz. cup of water...hoping to finish this and a third one before I leave to see my grandfather at the nursing facility he's transferred to and run some errands. It's a great day for health! Here's to many more! Hope everyone has a great day!! :bigsmile:0 -
Hello team Orange... Lets rock this challenge I know we can do this ! ! !
Well, yesterday I did my 20 dips. It was hard with my shoulder injury, but I did it. (My form probably wasn't the best, but it was the best I could do, do to limited mobility with that left shoulder. I was so proud of myself that I could do these. Yeah )
I also knocked out my wall sit and I did 5 - 1 min planks for my October mini challenge and did one extra 1-1 minute plank, for this challenge (we only had to hold it for 30 sec's per this challenge, so I did double the time)
Today, I am going to do another 50 squats with 3 lb weights and then 50 reg. squats for my Oct. challenge, 30 crunches (already did the advanced plank for this roll of dice), and I plan on getting 1 extra plank in with my 5 -1 minute planks I have to do for my October challenge. For that Challenge. I have to do 50 squats, 50 wall pushups, 5 - 1 minute planks and this week they added 50 Jumping jacks. So I have a busy work out day ahead of me... going to knock out the squats now
I think after today, I will have my Biggest Loser dice roll and water challenges completed 0 -

Challenge 1: Die roll#s: 3, 5, 3, 4, 2, 1 and did the corresponding exercises. Dips was the hardest.

I didn't do too well on the exercise part of it, I need to figure out how to print it off or write it down so I don't forget about the exercises, if I see it everyday on the fridge it would be better0

Due to a wrist injury and a swollen arm (recently got a tattoo) I wasn't able to do some of the exercises so instead of rolling the dice I just did the exercises I could do. I did wall sits for 60 seconds, then 60 crunches, and 60 squats.
I'm trying to drink more water but unfortunately I did not drink half my body weight in water. I will keep trying to drink more water throughout this whole challenge.
Great job this week everyone!0 -
