    Thanks for doing the chart!! Love it! :flowerforyou:

    Hope you all are keeping up your good habits this weekend. Just ran my Bold in the Cold 5k (found info on fb) and man it was cold out there! I finished in 40:32, but I'll take it!! I ran intervels and I know I ran 25min in there for sure. :drinker:

    Heading out tonight to watch a bunch of guys play video games :grumble: , so I'm headed out soon to get a little more exercise in.
    Later tators!

    WOW Thanks SO much for the great chart! Everyone is on a roll already! :bigsmile:

    Thanks to Bru she challenged me this morning & I did the 5K as well! I hopped on the treadmill here at home (which I hate with a vengeance). But I did it! 41 min 23 seconds - had to walk quite a bit since I haven't ran a 5k since Oct 30th. But not too bad! Now I feel GREAT! So thank you, dear friend, Bru! :flowerforyou:

    CJ was just here & brought me lunch. He's headed back home now to work on finishing building his new garage. So...I'm gonna do some cleaning & then maybe play on the Wii. I'm feeling like I can do more activity today now that I have all this energy! :laugh: However my hip is hurting a bit from skiing last night. It was bothering me this morning, but not too bad. Now that I did the 5K its really starting to make itself known to me! It sucks getting old! :laugh:

    Good afternoon everyone and happy Sunday! Hope everyone is having a great weekend thus far. Last night my friends and I headed to Sips n Strokes to celebrate my birthday and I had a BLAST. We bought three bottles of wine (although I only had one 8 oz glass), cheese and crackers and spinach dip/chips. The best part of last night was that I rocked a small tank top and small sweater and a pair of size 4 jeans......Yippee....Yippee. It appears I'm currently fluctuating between a size 4 and 6 jeans depending on style. The jeans I had on last night fit just the way I like them to so I was extremely happy. My current profile pic is the outfit I wore last night. I also got a funky new hairstyle to start this year and birthday off right and to match my new attitude.

    I spent 5 1/2 hours in the hair salon yesterday (perm, cut, rinse, curl) and had to drop a friend off at the airport therefore I was unable to complete the second part of yesterday's workout (ab work) so I told myself I would do it today.

    I got up super early this morning and rocked out the HIIT 15 dvd from the Turbo Fire program and Ab Ripper X from the P90X program. Once that was complete I got dressed and headed to the store for this week's groceries AND to purchase heavier weights. I am moving up from 15 lbs to 20 lbs. I probably can handle 25 lbs or 30 lbs for leg work but didn't have it in my budget to get 2 sets of weights.

    After I finish posting I will participate in the comercial challenge again this week but instead of jumping rope I plan to hula hoop, Walmart didn't have a weighted hula hoop so I'm going to just use the old school one for the time being. I don't expect to get a high calorie burn but just want to stay moving.


    Accountant_Boi: Great chart, thank you for putting it together.

    Kintegra & Brunette_wife: Great job w/completing the 5k, that is still a goal of mine and I will figure out a way to begin training once my Turbo Fire/Chalean Extreme hybrid is complete.

    Good Morning everyone!! Well lets get this over with... My weight for this week is... *drum roll*

    174! Down 2 lbs, woot. I'll take what I can get =P I, sadly, went over my calories a few days, and only worked out maybe one day last week :X But it'll be different this time... I currently have 6 people and a small child (plus 3 cats and a dog) staying in my lil 2 bedroom house, so it's been CRAZY! However, 2 of them will be going home tomorrow (sad face =( ) so maybe this week I'll be able to keep on top of things? One of the people staying with me is my brother, and he and I like to play this XBox game together, and I've recently rearranged my room so that I can excersize while playing (and we can bust out a good 2-3 hours a day easy on that game!) so ... here's to hopin!! 2 lbs is great for not being able to do much last week, so this week I'm hopin for better!!

    :flowerforyou: Choco: WOW! You look AMAZING! Keep it up girl!!! You're definitely doing something right!!!
    :flowerforyou: AccountBoi: Thank you soo much for the chart! We were in the same FabFour group together, I dunno if you remember =P But the chart definitely helped me stay on track, so I'm glad your doing it. THANK YOU!!
    :flowerforyou: BlueOwlz: 3 pounds is amazing!! Keep it up! You're doin great!
    :flowerforyou: Kae: Everyone is allowed to indulge every now and then right?? And every little loss counts right? =)
    :flowerforyou: Everyone Else: KEEP IT UP! You are all sooo inspiring it's great!!

    Have a GREAT monday everyone!!! (even tho I hate mondays myself xD)

    I had a gain of .2 of a pound....I am not to worried about this, I did pretty good this week eating, and i think most of the weight is water weight from my muscles trying to recover from the intense workouts of p90x!!! Good news though.. I took my measurments yesterday for a sneek peek and I have lost inches everywhere!!! I am so excited!! Good luck to everyone else!

    I figured there's no reason to post all the dates every week... so I'll just add each week onto my post!

    Jan 3rd: 190 lbs
    10th: 188 lbs (-2)
    17th: 184 lbs (-4)

    Not sure where the 4 lbs came from, but I'll take it!! (My deficit should've given me a 2.4 lb loss...)

    I'll take it! I feel like these have been 2 of the hardest faught pounds so far! DH and I have really buckled down and gotten back to meal planning, and careful shopping. I've also made a concerted effort this week to drink more water every day. My goal for this week is to keep that going, and to add in 30 minutes of exercise at least twice. On Saturday we have plans to go join the Y. The kids are excited about the pool, swimming lessons, and the play place they have. I'm excited about some of the classes they offer and the lap pool. Since the monthly cost of the membership is cutting into our "allowances" ($$ we don't have to explain to the other how it was spent), I will DEFINATELY be getting as much out of it as possible!

    Good afternoon and happy MLK Day! I'm dragging a little bit today because I've not been sleeping well but I did get up and rock out today's workout. Today I completed Push Circuit 1 from the Chalean Extreme program and hula hooped. I was able to increase my weights to 20 lbs for the bicep curls, all the squats and the overhead tricep extension. I know I coul lift heavier for the weights but was able to feel my legs shake a little bit with the one leg and heel squats so overall I'm happy w/my effort.

    Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and today has gotten off to a good start.


    I've decided not to weigh in again until January 31st/February 1st which will be a month into the Turbo Fire/Chalean Extreme hybrid. I don't want to become obsessed with the scale or have it depict my mood if I don't see a loss. I'm within my goal range but would like to be closer to the lower end of the spectrum.
