?- I do a mixture of strength and cardio. I started focusing on HIIT but I've been taking it easier lately because I was getting bored with my routine. I've been running and eating as clean as I can.
My workout schedule for the week is pretty light. I haven't been feeling too great so I've just been running a 5k and heading to bed early. I'm hoping to feel better next week so I can get back into it but only time will tell.0 -
UNHAPPY doesnt cut it. I have put on 3lbs and I have no idea why, I had one bad night at the beginning of the week but other than that Ive been good, so grumpy, I only had 1lb to go to my goal now I have 4lb

Sorry for the late reply! I'm on vacation in NYC and am worrying about what the scale will look like when I get home... But at least this week's weigh-in is from before I got here.
WEEK 7 CHECK-IN
Current weight: 127.8
Pounds lost since last week: 1.8
Pounds lost since the start of our challenge: 12.2
Question of the week: Do you strength train? Are you a cardio girl? Do you do a bit of both? What's your favorite? How do you keep from getting bored? I do a bit of both - I adore my strength training group fitness class, but running is always my go-to exercise especially when I'm feeling down.
What's your work-out schedule look like for this week? No real schedule since I'm on vacation - I went for a hike today and walked most of NYC the past several days. Hope to get in a little more light exercise before I get home (Sunday night) and can seriously start moving again.0 -
I am at 153.3. But not surprising with all going on. Last week I was not feeling the best and was lazy all week. Saturday I am doing a 5K and hopefully will be back in the swing of things! I did get a new tankini and have been told I look great so that was a boost to the self confidence!
QOTW: I weight train and do cardio. I am restarting the push phase of ChaLean.0 -
WEEK 7 CHECK-IN
Current weight: 137 (i'd rather not talk about it):sad:
Pounds lost since last week: gained 1.5 (I know it's not a lot in the grand scheme)
Pounds lost since the start of our challenge:1.5 then gained it back
Question of the week: Do you strength train? Are you a cardio girl? Do you do a bit of both? What's your favorite? How do you keep from getting bored?
I can do both. in fact I like both a lot. I feel stronger after I workout. My muscles don't feel so wound up these days (my one benefit from all my efforts)
What's your work-out schedule look like for this week?
Today- does a massage count?
Mon- run/hike 60 mins
Tues- Yoga
Wed- long hike, 2hrs, at coast
Thr- yoga
Fri- elliptical
Sat- rest (travel day)
If I can do this that is satisfaction enough for me. I've gone from doing nothing when I joined MFP to taking challenges like this and working out, burning over 2,200 cals in a week! That's huge for me.0
