Oh vent away!!!!!! I often need to vent about my ex (not necessarily on MFP, but to friends) and it helps sooooooo much...Better out than in!!!!

I've put your start weight at 140lbs (not the increased one).

Oh, and WELCOME TO THE CHALLENGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

looby1968

Well, I've managed cardio, weights and water pledges everyday, so far (Leslie Sansone is my saviour!!!!! I do my weights with her workout). I've done 2 lots of sit-ups/push-ups/relaxation.

Need to get another 2 JD sessions in (1 tonight and at the weekend I should be able to do both days). WiiFit sesh will be the same.

So, I think I'm doing pretty well so far!:bigsmile:

Keep it up peeps! We are soooooooooo going to have Hot Bodies!!!!!!!

I was planning on starting Zumba classes this year but there's a Wii game coming out (think it's already out in the USA) in February so I've started saving for it!!!!!

looby1968

Well I ended up playing Zumba last night instead of JD2. SOOOO, I guess I have to run away with my tail between my legs...next time though...next time

Is that Zumba for the Wii? It isn't out yet here in England! I'm saving to buy it, in February. Would you recommend it?

You beat me on 2!!!!!!! And we were pretty close on 'Hey Ya' Argh! This is worse than when my youngest beat my high scores!!! I didn't realise I was sooooo competitive.

Great fun though and very motivating!

I've just seen your other JD2 results (which are utterly brilliant!!!!) but that challenge will have to wait 'til the weekend!

I did 33 mins ( I keep a jog on in-between songs to increase my cal burn ) and burned 254cals (plus I foolishly did 'Just Sweat' and burned 106 cals).

Of course, I did my JD with the central heating on too! How hot was I??????? Doh!!!!

I'm going to need some extra munchies - Rice cakes, cream cheese, smoked salmon and cucumber, with a cup of hot choc for me, then!!!!

So, my '5k' turned into a 1.5miles walk/run..:frown: . appearently only those who signed up for the competitive run get to do the whole 5k, everyone else does the 1.5...I didn't find out until after reaching the 1.5mile marker when they said 'all walkers you are done, please go inside, all runners, men to the right, women to the left' :grumble: Gee thanks for being clear about this on the flyer that I got.. and let's face, everyone looks forward to those race day tee's..a trophy tee if you will..You guessed it, again, only the 'runners' get one. :grumble: Everyone else gets a reusable shopping bag promoting the place and has nothing to do with the 5k on it, not that I won't use it, but still. A little annoyed but it will pass. Just wished they were better organized. Now, cappuccino, cheese potatoes, and a fire for the night.:ohwell: I'm really looking forward to the 5k in March, because I KNOW it's an actual 5k :drinker: Enjoy your weekend all!!

How annoying!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope you enjoyed your cappuccino, cheese potatoes and fire.

I'm off out to get some new trainers (for when I start the c25k), there's a Starbucks nearby and my girlies have 'insisted' we go in!!! Would be rude not to!

Don't worry, I plan on working off the calories this afternoon!

I am down to 185.6. I haven't exercised like I was prior to the Christmas break, but I think it has to do with getting back into the routine. Water intake has been at the recommended 8 glasses, and I only had two soft drinks for the week! Was given some new obstacles on Thursday and considering everything I feel I did pretty good. Weight loss is very difficult and the max I can loose in a week is 2 lbs so I am pretty close! Starting Tuesday I ate a fruit and veggie every day. This replaced my usual lunch, and I am glad for the change!

kpopa

oh dear oh dear oh dear...i am NOT doing well!! I'm assuming it's because of my burger, beer, and fries yesterday (my cheat meal) but I weighted in at a pound heavier today! AHHHHH! So, rule #1 - don't weigh in day after cheat meal. Rule #2 - Limit cheat meal next week so Monday weigh in is better!

Hope you all had a great weekend and a have a great week...

bkrbabe57

At mid-challenge I am up a pound but I did get my two exercise days in.

Good luck to everyone on our final week.

lulu_beans

Mid challenge weigh-in, 10 pounds lost...but I'm not sure it's fair because it was technically week one for me.

AnaNotBanana

Mid Challenge weigh-in. I've lost .8 lbs since last week. I'm hoping to be able to kick it up a notch this week because I'm starting Zumba on Thursday and will be taking a 4 hours snowshoe hike on Saturday.
