If some of these don't pertain to the challenge, just ignore them.
1/12/14 Sunday
Physical Challenges
Walking, 2.0 mph, slow pace = 56 minutes
Walking, 3.0 mph, mod. pace, walking dog = 31 minutes
Health Challenges 10 c. water
Ultimate Challenge -10 points. My husband cooked today. He made an Itallian inspired dish with lots of veggies in it. My mother and husband ate it also. My children are grown and don't live with me any more, so it's just me and my husband. My mother eats my food also. She lives next door, so I took her some, too.

Physical Challenges
Walking, 2.0 mph, slow pace = 105 minutes
Cooking or food preparation = 75 minutes
Stationary bike, moderate effort (bicycling, cycling, biking) = 30 minutes
Health Challenges 9 c. water
Ultimate Challenge -10 points.
1/15/14
Physical Challenges
Cleaning, light, moderate effort = 10 minutes
Mild stretching = 10 minutes
Trampolining = 60 minutes. I tumble on my trampoline believe it or not. Would tuck jumps, straddle jumps, back handsprings, front handsprings, roundoffs, and cartwheels count as calisthenics? It's gymnastics.
Cooking or food preparation = 180 minutes.
Health Challenges 9 c. water
Ultimate Challenge -10 points. I cooked Shrimp Creole, which is very healthy. My mother and husband ate it also. My children are grown and don't live with me any more, so it's just me and my husband. My mother eats my food also. She lives next door, so I took her some, too.
1/16/14
Physical Challenges
Walking, 2.0 mph, slow pace = 70 minutes, Session I
Walking, 2.0 mph, slow pace = 90 minutes, Session II
Health Challenges 7 c. water
Ultimate Challenge -0 points.
MY LIMITATIONS: 2 knee surgeries on left knee, so I can't really run or jump on the ground for long. Scoliosis with other issues because of it prevents me from bending/hunching forward, like to do crunches type exercises. However, I can bend backwards (I'm weird that way. haha) I'm 60 years old, but I don't let that stop me most of the time. lol Y'all won't understand 'til you get older. Don't worry about accommodating me. If I'm not able to do a particular challenge, I'll just sit it out or modify it a bit.0 -
