Perhaps I could break them up even more. For pride I was trying to do a minute at a time. I have 2/5 days done of these evil wall sits. I will see if shorter periods of time work better for me.
This doesn't make any sense. I have these large muscular thighs and you'd think this wouldn't be that hard. On the flip side I have this very flabby belly and ab work generally isn't a problem. So go figure. If these were planks they would have been done already.0 -

-
You guys are all nuts. I say that with love. :flowerforyou: 500 minutes of cardio? Eek.
I am so proud of myself when I get in 400 minutes cardio/strength combined. However do you have time to do that much time working out (I have a commute, work, grading, housework, etc.)?0 -
500? holy balls ladies!!! ok. il hit 300 this week. i might try for 400 next week, cuz ill try not to be a lazy *kitten* on sun/mon. but still 500??

My Sunday-Friday totals:
Cardio: 342/220 (My extra goes to FunkyGranola if she needs it, otherwise it is just a donation to the team)
Strength: 113/90
Core work: (40/30 -- counted in strength total)
Relaxing: 10/10 (I did some stretching segments as well as some snuggling on the couch)
Eating: 6/6
Wall sits: 2/5 (These are my new kryptonite. Forget what I said about burpees; these are worse. You can't power through a minute of burning thighs in the same way.)0 -
Ahhh...just looked at my numbers and I have some cardio to get done today.
I kinda slacked off this week. The Vancouver Wine Festival was this week, so Ispent more time than I should have tasting yummy wines. Yesterday I got no exercise in and went over my calories.:embarassed:
I have to be very dedicated today!!!!0 -
Good morning everyone! Hope everybody has a wonderful, activity filled Saturday!0

Kim, love the new pic. You are sure showing progress. When you get to your goal weight you should treat yourself to the works, manny, pedi and new hair do, massage and a party dress. Whoo HOO!0 -

We have that down below you in Seattle area. I know when I go on wine tours there is tons of walking. Did you do a ton of walking you can count? Even slow walking adds up after awhile.0 -

You too Lara and I can't wait to see your numbers this week. I bet they are over the top!0 -

well today was the first day I did anything, i took a nice 45 mins walk with my hubby in the mall but I'm feeling better and I want to go do some more. also I didn't eat good this week because it was mostly juice and soup and I'm going to do the wall challenge here in a bit. sorry I was out but next week I'm going to be back in the game. I am also so very proud of everyone for getting in the 300 and 400 and even 500 thats great. way to go team. so tonight I won't be at 220
but i'm hoping to be at 100 at least. I got 45 in so far. 0 -

This is a small world! I'm from Seattle originally, like SaraAlexandre, but I took a job transfer and I currently live in Vancouver, BC like Hajenkatt
So for my fitness story.
Probably like a lot of people on the site, my journey started with a photo. Or in my case, two photos. I had ignored the evidence from the first photo, but after the second one, it was tough to deny that I was overweight. That was four years ago! I'm obviously a slow learner, cause I still didnt take working out or eating right seriously. Until December 2013 when for no real reason at all I just got sick of it and decided that I was not going to spend my retirement being fat and weak. So I joined, starting logging, taking workouts seriously...and what do you know? It works. I have a long way to go, but I know I'm finally gonna get it done.
Is that enough? I hate talking about myself. Almost as much as I hate Yoga. Which I had to do this week to get my core time in...on to weekly totals.
Wall Squats: 5/5
Cardio: 225
Strength: 90+20 yoga+10 abs
Food: 5/6 - wine festival day 0 -
