    Good day today so far! I went to the gym and did the following:

    100 pushups (wall ones..I'm trying!)
    20 Minutes Cardio Treadmill
    15 Minutes Weight Training (leg day)
    20 Minutes Basketball

    I'm feeling much better than yesterday. I've had 7 cups of water so far, and more to come before the end of the night! Thanks for this challenge! I'm so excited to see what we will all do this week!



    Great work!! Nothing wrong with wall push ups. I'm doing them too, gotta start somewhere.

    WOW! This is awesome. :bigsmile: Can't wait till next Monday to see how well we all do. Watching that total number shrink.

    I just finshed out todays food diary and I was slightly under on my calories. :bigsmile:
    I messed up and didn't get to my aqua class. I would have gotten there about 15 mins late...bad idea.

    Remember: This is not for today or tomorrow but for the rest of our lives. We are worth every bit of the effort.:flowerforyou:

    I would like to join the challenge. I'm going back to Florida in June to do some more sky diving. I have a thyroid issue, and my weakness was drinking soft drinks. Today is day 4, not soft drinks and I have been walking and doing sit ups. I hope I don't tire out quick.

    Ok 50-pounders, what is your game plan for this weekend?

    Do you struggle with the weekend food intake? Evenings out? Parties to attend? :drinker:

    What about workouts and weekend activities? What do you have planned, what obstacles do you anticipate ahead and what are you planning to do to mitigate these issues as they arise? :noway: :happy:

    Lets talk weeeekends!!!!!!!!

    This is Pops weekend off we alway eat out alot while running around. I will get no structured workout. He is only off every other weekend. All I do is just try to make the best choices for me and get in a much activity as possible. We will see how I did on Monday.

    For the weekend I am really careful that I make my calories! Try to preplan things... like my buddy has a bday this weekend that the boys are gonna head out for, well then I will try to eat a little less to make sure I have a few extra calories for the night, maybe even get a run in or something to build myself a little wiggle room. Then that night have a few bevvies but no snacking...

    It is all about staying cognizant of your choices and always make conscious decisions. I know if it was easy I wouldn't be here... but I think we can make it that easy.

    Tonight is up for grabs, but I'm throwing a pre-holiday party on Saturday. So I've tried to incorporate some healthier versions of some tasty foods everyone enjoys. So the main meal is layered zucchini in place of lasagna. However, it's my roommates birthday month, so there will be cake that I will try to avoid. Sunday, I've planned a day of relaxation and pampering. Also, I will make it my mission to workout hardcore over the weekend! :o)

    My mini goal for myself was to lose 15 lbs before my holiday vacation visiting the fam. I will be there for 18 days. So I really need to stay focused with all the holiday treats and being on vacation for such a long period of time. I'll be in Colorado Springs, so if anyone has any suggestions of places to go and fun things to do, please tell!!!
