    Seriously, I don't know how I did that! Maybe the whole eating more to get the metabolizim going has some truth to it. One thing I have learned though since starting this challenge. Sodium has a huge impact! I don't add salt while im cooking or eating, so I thought I was fine. But when I added it to my nutrient list to watch. I was amazed how many foods naturally had it in them! I struggle to keep it within the daily limit!

    Anybody interested in an extra challenge to finish out the month? How about keeping the sodium at or below the daily limit? Im kinda slacking on the veggies again too now that its winter and my garden is done.

    Keep trying everyone!!!
    Lisawest - Good to hear from you! Boy o Boy you definately had a busy November. Hopefully things will slow down alittle so you can take care of yourself.

    All my efforts this month went down the toilet... I'm right back to where I started. I know it's still water weight from this past weekend, but I still decided to change my ticker since this water weight has been bouncing back and forth since last Wednesday... Hopefully I'll flush it out and be back under 200 this weekend.

    Good afternoon and happy Tuesday. Here's a quick little post. Today I completed the Fat Blaster dvd from the Chalean Extreme program.

    Brunettewife: Don't beat yourself up about the water weight gain, just remember you have the skills and the knowledge to take it off again.

    Good morning everyone and happy Thursday! Yesterday was an extremely busy day therefore I was only able to get online long enough to log my exercise. I had a busy work day plus I decided to start my Christmas shopping. I was able to start and stop it all in a day with the exception of having to pick up two gift cards. I love the fact that I don't have many ppl to purchase gifts for thus I'm able to get in and get out.

    Yesterday I walked while my car was in the shop being serviced. When it was all said and done I walked about two hours. I started out at a very brisk pace but it was cold and breezy yesterday morning so that probably lasted about 20 minutes.

    Today I completed the Cardio-week 1 dvd from the Kettleworx series.

    After a week of being back up to 201.6 and as high as 205.8...I'm officially back down from all that water weight :) I did change my goal from 180 to 190, I'll be happy to just maintain at this point with all of the holiday parties and such. But I'll also take any loss that comes my way :)

    Happy Friday everyone! I had another work training to attend this morning so I had to get up earlier than usual to get the workout in. Today I completed the Burn It Off dvd from the Chalean Extreme program.

    Good afternoon everyone! Hope your weekend has gotten off to a great start. Today I had an abundant of energy and became an exercise bandit. First, I completed the free Saturday boot camp session. We worked in teams of two and while one person completed an exercise their partner was completing something different and then we switched (push-ups/jumping jacks, burpees/walk squats, lunges/step ups, pillars/bicycles and a whole host of other exercises). Boot camp lasts an hour but I still felt like I could rock out more so I headed to my local gym and completed the 45 minute kickboxing class. Once that was done I decided to cool down by walking 32 minutes on the treadmill (3.0 - 4.2 mph at an incline of 3.0 - 4.0). When I was done I came home showered and ate a big bowl of oatmeal with a banana. Now I'm watching television and relaxing.

    I'm sure that quite a bit of that was water weight from all the sodium over the Thanksgiving weekend. But I'll take what I can get! Now to stay on track through all the holiday parties coming up!

    Hello Everyone! I am still having some ear pain but I am getting better. Soon, I will be able to hear again. :)


    kschoono....that is amazing!! How exciting for you! Hoping the ear pain will be gone soon!!!

    I have been fluctuating so much this week. I am pretty certain it is water and TOM on the horizon. I'm not going to stress about it because as soon as TOM is gone, things should balance back out again. Great job everyone!!

    Good afternoon all! I hope everyone's week got off to a great start. I had a real early hair appointment so I had to get up extremely early in order to get the workout in. I'm so glad I'm a morning person because if not it would have made getting up at the crack of dawn a whole lot harder especially since it was unseasonably cold here in GA. Nonetheless, the alarm clock went off and I hopped right up and began preparing for the workout. I decided to re-start the Chalean Extreme program until I can decide on my next move. I will follow the program but on cardio days I'll mix in other dvds so I don't get too bored too quick. Let's see if I can stick with it. Today I completed the Burn Circuit 1 dvd and then completed Ab ripper.

    Well I stayed the same this week and I'm ok with that. I didn't really pay attention to myself all weekend - had too much hustle & bustle going on. I tried to be good foodwise. I did some snow shoveling, lots of cleaning, decorating for Christmas, lots of errand running, and I also did some running in place & dancing in front of the tv too! No gym this weekend and definitely not enough water! Oh well...back to the gym I go tonight!
