    lol! Thanks for the graphics McFlat(Jen). Jen is from our original zombie challenge and you may see her sneak in here every once in awhile.


    Kim, (Kawookie) you always have such good work out ideas. I know you started Jillian Michaels ripped in 30. Have you ever tried the 30 day shred? I started with that one. It really helps with building strength and endurance and it's not as crazy as ripped. How is your dad doing?

    Janice, you are a warrior! I'm very impressed and inspired. I'm thinking any women that can do multiple kinds of push ups and planks is someone to look up to.

    Lara, you are doing awesome. I know your job keeps you very busy and you are doing just great. I use Jillian videos 4/7 days a week and she yells at me in a good way. I like her videos and fitnessblender. However, I do not like Daniel in the fitnessblender. He is soooo boring. I would rather he announce and Kelly do the work out.

    Funky Sarah, hope everyone has given you some arm work outs to try.


    TJ, I locked myself out of the house recently. I was in a hurry and I had my purse by the front door and I grabbed my keys to the car(not the house), locked the door and dashed out. Then I quickly realized I had neither my purse or my house keys cause they were in my purse! Luckily I leave my kitchen window open. It's up high but i managed to shimmy my way through with out breaking the kitchen faucet. It taught me a lesson!


    I did get my walk in yesterday and I'm still on task. I have been eating really good and I avoided chocolate covered dehydrated strawberries because I had very little calories left. Today, I will have to leave room for them. If you never had them, they are quite good.

    Happy Friday! Let's get some good work outs in and don't forget to check in on Sat. I will send out a reminder. If anyone hasn't added me as a friend, please do.

    LOL Sarah - I have had to crawl through windows to get into houses I have locked myself out of before. I feel you.

    Well, I didnt do my exercises last night so Im alittle behind I think. Good thing I set aside Saturday mornings for cartoons and cardio. Im missing 80 min of cardio and 23 min of strength training for the week. Time to get movin!!!!

    Owwww! I just did a 30 minutes to fitness video for strength training. 41 minutes of ow. I am such a weakling! :sad: :sad:

    I thought my core was in good shape. Nope. :noway: I thought my arms were getting somewhere. :huh: I'm re-evaluating if I have muscles in the back of my arms.

    I am glad the video is not too easy. So don't view this as a complaint. More a realistic evaluation of my lack of prowess in weight lifting. (BTW I was using 3 and 6 pound weights-- less than the video suggested to start and this is still true.)

    I am dead but I still owe myself some cardio.

    Jillian didn't yell at me, because I didn't let her. I got some really disappointing news last night and lost all motivation to do anything after work. Don't you worry though, tonight I will kick some butt!

    Everyone is doing so well this week!!! Great job!

    What happened Lara? I hope everything is okay.



    Team Carol: This is your last day to get your challenge done for this week. This is what I need, either report on this thread or send me a personal message. I will post on the news feed as well as send personal messages if I don't hear from you. If you fail to report, you may be throw into the zombie hoard team.

    Cardio: x/210 mins(trying for 45 mins of combat training)
    Strength: x/90 mins
    Food goals(on average) x/6 days


    Please note, that if you are shy in cardio because you missed a day during the week. You can count last Sun. Sun is considered a day off but if you take a rest day during the week, you can use Sun as a swap.


    Team: you have until midnight to turn in your goals!!! Let's do this!!! Since we have no starting points from the season finale, we need all the points we can get. We are a strong team and let's show em what we got!

    Sara - I had applied for a new job out in CA and found out I didn't get it. I am very thankful that I already have a job, but this would have been a great opportunity. I am back in action though, it just knocked me down that night.

    I got everyone but one person. We got a total score of 2.72. That's near perfect!

    We got some huge cardio numbers. I'm very impressed with us Carols! Take a bow because you all deserve it!

    Can't wait to see how we fare against the other teams.

    Don't forget to watch the season premier tomorrow night and enjoy! It's your night off and I will post the new challenge under the Walking Dead team Carol thread sometime tomorrow night or Monday morning. MVP and winners will be posted in a separate thread as well.


    Excellent job ladies!

    Sorry I'm a slacker, I got sick yesterday and only checked in on my phone. I got the flu this year (not as bad as at the prison but still awful) and I think it just made my immune system crash :-( Anyway, I should put in a suggestion to have the communities available from the app!! Send me a message if you ever notice me missing. Thanks to those of you that did!

    Monday- 85 min cardio + 40 strength
    Tuesday- 50 cardio
    Wednesday-50 cardio
    Thursday- I took the day off but I worked 2x as hard Friday
    Friday- 60 cardio + 50 strength
    Saturday- Sick :-(

    So it's
    245/210 Cardio
    90/90 Strength
    6/6 Food

    Personal sleep goal 6/6 :-) I'm proud of that one. And I haven't weighed in.

    Okay so I missed the combat because that was the Saturday plan but I'll do it today, now that I'm feeling better.

    New challenge should be up every Monday 8am-10am-ish (Central). Captains have to watch the show and base some of the new challenge on what happened to that team's character. Otherwise much of each week will be like the week before, cardio, strength and calorie goal wise.
