    Jacque you're doing so great!! progress!! Love it!! Will your walk be at a gym or in the neighborhood? enjoy it!

    ok, so my meals have all been running late today, on account I made a trip to get a pr of pants for my oldest son, socks and shirts for my youngest son, a few fruits and veggies. I arrived home around 12:30 and decided I needed to get my workout done, it is better if I complete this before the guys get home from work...and I knew I had a 90+ min workout planned. I was a little hungry, and by shred time, had hunger pangs. noticed all my numbers for calories burned were low too. but I didn't want eat something and then feel too full, or nauseated. so, it is what it is. think I may be done with WATP's this week. Can do outdoors or treadmill.

    HI team...well, I graduated from physical therapy today!! Yippy!! She gave me more exercises to add to the others. Doing more with endurance and increasing weights. Shoulder is kinda sore today and don't know if it's from doing the shred, sleeping wrong, or weather changing. She said I am doing great and just keep at it. Go to the Dr June 8th. Gonna head out for my walk then shred and hopefully do some yard work. Have a nice day everyone and keep it healthy and active! :flowerforyou: you are all the bestest!!

    Good Morning Pepper's,
    Well I have to say day 5 was tough but feels good. I am not as sore as I thought it would make me. I even feel like I have more pep. I have been eating under calories all week and at least one green veggie a day working on getting the other(have had other non green veggies), I love fruit so I can say at least 3 or 4 a day. Still having snacks after dinner but only one instead of 3. I hope I loose something this week if not inches.

    Kelly I have to agree the support is great, I love that we can text even if I cant get here to check in we need to get Vita in on that.


    Well been very busy at work so got to go. Check back later. :drinker: :bigsmile:

    afternoon...cept Vita, g mornin'. well, the shred is getting easier in cardio and endurance...but still the same with push ups and other arm/shoulder movements. I just don't have the strength in my R arm. but, another thing I noticed with both my workouts so far today is that my heart rate is not getting in the 'zone'...like the other day. this tells me that I am improving my heart function. today will be the last day I do WATP for a long time. gonna have to walk outdoors or on the treadmill if I wanna get a good workout. had a bite to eat, gonna walk to get the mail and then mow.
    Jacque, sorry about your phone..hope you can get a new one soon. Yup, I'll keep your mom and sis in my prayers and thoughts today...take care
    Cindy, I can tell in my body too...hoping inches. day 18 of my cycle, so pms is here or near!

    HI to the rest of the gang...

    planned greens...snack> celery, dinner> romaine lettuce, cuke, pepper.

    Just popping in real quick. Had to do an errand on my lunch and walked 46 mins. oh my will not be eating all those calories. Kelly still working on the cardio part really hard for me is the jumping jacks sounds funny but I find those really hard for me.

    Well the day is going good so far.
    I had green beans, snap peas, brocholli and salad for lunch so got some greens in. hope to get more in at supper.
    Took a walk to the bank it was short so not worth logging.
    Cindy-when I did the shred before the jumping jacks were hard for me too.
    Kelly doing good gurl!:glasses:

    Thursday ~ WATP 2 mile, Shred, stretch 83 [X] **decided not to do my stretch**
    495 minutes goal
    27 remaining

    ok, so while I was doing my workouts today, I decided I would hold off and do my stretch later...like before supper. I really debated whether to just do it and get it over with, go ahead and push myself and be done...or nah..get outside and mow the lawn, that will be a little challenging, stretch after that. Well, the lawn got done, but the stretch did not. Yes, there is still time to do it, but I am just saying no. I am feeling 50/50 bout it now. I could have done it and not be in this position, OR ya know, you push mowed about 1 hour and no, not quite stretching, but still activity, and wasn't too awful cuz we had a pleasant day here, no heat or humidity...and I just did the stretch Tues. SO, why am I feeling guilty? is it b/c I made an 'exercise for the week' goal list, visible to you all, or that I really am going to pay the price at the scale tomorrow for not doing this 27 minute stretch routine? I am beatin' myself up about this, and now I am gonna stop cuz I realize ....

    in the last 7 days, I had a goal of exercising 495 minutes. I DID 471 (even added 3 minutes)
    I burned (per my hrm) 3,341 calories....didn't wear hrm mowing the lawn today
    Completed 15 workouts with no interruptions....walked outdoors, walked and used weights, walk/jog, stretched, and shredded it.
    2 days I went over in calories, but only by a few hundred.
    got my water in every day.
    I feel more energized.
    not as bloated, even with Tom approaching.

    Deep down I know I had a good week and that I am proud of. It wasn't all that bad, and I can try to make improvements for next week.

    here's to all you ladies and rockin the scale tomorrow. may wt loss be all that we post!! let's do it. let's get healthy!!

    Good Morning Pepper's,
    Well this morning I was very disappointed I lost only 1 pound, I did retake my measurements and lost 1 inch from waist. but then I thought about it I have only been doing this for 6 days and I already feel better. Now I just want to see what happends when I continue to do this for 30. I can feel every muscle not really that sore. Gonna do this. :drinker: so my weight this week is 199.

    Kelly you are doing great even though I did not loose a lot I know I am building muscle and it weighs more than fat. I am looking forward to seeing my body change. Lets keep doing this for the full 30 days. Then I can judge. Its not over night. I keep thinking that.

    Jacque thanks for eating some green veggies for me. I did eat veggies but not many were green.

    Barb new week :bigsmile:

    Vita hope you are doing well. we all miss you. :heart:

    Ok ready for the next challenge I will try to think of some. Will check back later. :bigsmile:

Will have to really watch the sodium this week. don't know what the menu's will be with dh home both days this weekend. taking youngest son to his 'lock down' later. pick him up Sunday @ 6pm. not sure if oldest son will be back from college job. still talking rain too. gonna eat then head out for a walk/jog, and shred. I just realized I walked 17 miles in the last 7 days!

    Cindy ~ a loss is a loss! pounds OR inches! you've made improvements all the way around! I know you can *feel* the difference! just think of how you will feel in another week, 2 weeks, a month!! ya wanna get there, right? I know you do!! Yes, our bodies are going to change, muscles are getting tighter, our bodies are getting toned. We will lose inches and become ((smaller!!)) That IS what IS going to happen!! Shred it gurl! I'm so happy for you! and Proud! :bigsmile:

    will check back later and add exercise goals. challenge for the week? squats or crunches/situps.....2 fruits a day......8 glasses of water.....log food or exercise.....more sleep....

Also they are opening a gym by my house and they are having a start up spcial of 0 down and 9.95 a month. So I am going to check that out. They wont be open til june by that cool.I have a squats schedule I got on line so I thought I do that. You do squats 3 days a week. look at it at http://www.twohundredsquats.com. If not lets do the 10 a day. What ever easier for everyone.
