Brucifer:
The wall can be your friend
What if you stood next to a wall and did 10 (not too low) lunges on one leg and then switched to the other still holding the wall. It all will progress in time. :-D Strength takes time but it comes along... balance too!
1600 is not TOO low... but an excellent challenge! Awesome work!!!! :-D I need to stay out of my hot fudge jar! lol I put it in the WAY back. Hopefully THAT helps! HA0 -

Welcome Back Spellbinder! :flowerforyou:
Pam_355 & ValyriaWCiO -Welcome! :flowerforyou:
Caitlinlws-Sorry not a sports fan
Brucifer- Awww, hope you’re ok. :flowerforyou: If there is a challenge that your unable to do, that’s ok. Just make up your own challenge for that week. Maybe you can find another exercise that focused on your lower body instead of doing lunges. If not, just focus on the calories section of the challenge this week. Good Luck!
Teran-That’s a great idea! I think I’ll do the same. I did walking lunges yesterday.
Shawnalee-Seems like your unpacking is going well. Great advice to Brucifer. Jumping Lunges!? You are really pushing us girl! Hey, but I’ll get some in this week :noway:0 -

Thanks loveme445 You are doing a fabulous job of coming up with challenges everyday and encouraging everyone!
I've never done lunges before even though I've thought of doing them a couple of times. But challenge has got me started. I definitely won't be doing 210. My legs are sore from the 30 I did last night. So, I plan on completing 1/2, which would be 105.
My updates for today:
MON – Lunges: 0 ~ Under Calories: YES
TUE – Lunges: 30 ~ Under Calories: YES
WED – Lunges: 0 ~ Under Calories: YES
THU – Lunges: ## ~ Under Calories: Y/N?
FRI – Lunges: ## ~ Under Calories: Y/N?
SAT – Lunges: ## ~ Under Calories: Y/N?
SUN – Lunges: ## ~ Under Calories: Y/N?
Total Lunges: 30 / 105 (changed to 105 since I'm aiming for 1/2 the amount)
Total Days Under Calories: 3/7
All you guys are doing a great job!! :drinker:0 -

I was only planning to do my 30 lunges today, but I was even motivated to do an extra 5 per leg...not bad consider I hate lunges! haha
Can I make a suggestion of push ups for next week?0 -
Shawnalee- You are hilarious! Good Job on getting back to working out. BTW, you’re not the meany in the group, you’re a motivator. Thanks for pushing us!
Yummyfoodie-Welcome!
Spellbinder-Thanks! I think that’s a good idea, you know you’re limits. However, if you get to 105 and know you can push yourself to do more (without hurting yourself), GO FOR IT!
Caitlinlws-Good Job pushing yourself to do 5 more lunges! Great minds think alike, I already had push-ups scheduled for next week. I was debating on how many we should complete.
So, EVERYONE, what should the goal be for push-ups next week? I was thinking 105 push-ups for the week, which is an average of 15 per day. Keep in mind that they can be any form (regular, modified-knee, counter, wall, etc.)0 -
I just do whatever you tell me :bigsmile: thanks so much :flowerforyou:0

WOW...I just finished the last 10 for today. Thanks Shawnalee for the idea. I didn't use the wall, I decided to get some help from two of my best friends...a couple of chairs from the kitchen table. They have "supported" me the whole time I putting on so much of this weight, I thought it was only fitting they should "support" me while I tried to get some of it off.
I know it's kind of cheating, but it takes the stress off my knee and keeps me off the floor as well. But now, every time I stand up my thighs feel like they're on FIRE!!! So hoping that will go away...it will go away won't it?0 -
This is wonderful!!!! If you are sore that means you put in the effort!!! High five, seriously!!! A tip for the soreness-lots of water, banana, and keep moving (walking is fine). The more you sit the more sore you will feel. The water and moving will help flush the lactic acid which is causing the pain. keep up the great efort and be proud!!
