Hi Ladies,

We are going to add a new rule to this challenge:
If a member does not log in or comment on your team thread for more than 3 days, they will be replaced. Part of the journey of losing weight is having support. If a team member is going out of town or need a few personnal days please let your captain know and this will not apply to you. Everyone must weigh in on Wednesdays, if you are unable to on Wednesday please post your weight along with your points on Tuesday.

*Team Captains-please msg the person that is not logging in and let them know, give them a chance to respond if they do not they will be disqualified.

Please post this on your Team thread.

Hey everyone! Sorry for the delay, I had a busy day and barely got home! Unfortunately, though I tried to compensate my carido in the pool with other types like walking or something else to the best of my physical abilities, I guess it wasnt enough for another great weight loss :-(

Starting MFP 320lbs
Starting SAHM: 320 lbs
Initial weigh-in:313 lbs
2nd weigh-in: 313 lbs :-(

Goal: 145-150lbs

Just finished my exercises and since I didnt lose anything this week im stepping it up.

25min of 30DS
30 mins of Pilates
22mins of Stretching (Crunch:Sexy Stretching) lol there is nothing sexy about me stretching with this blob..lol

I drank all of my water and then some.

I think this covers everything for today.

Almost forgot strength training: the 30 DS covers that for me..

I have att uverse and its on the free on demand under health and fitness/exercise tv..not sure if comcast has the same workouts on there exercise tv. I think if you go under exercisetv.com they should have it there, though I'm not sure if you have to purchase it or not. After I did the stretching I felt really good and relaxed. Hoping to get some flexibility back doing this.

Yesterday I also shopped with my baby for an hour.......that was a workout an itself!


Today Cardio down....Crunch: Carido Resculpt

3 days down so far for the week for cardio .....2 more to go!

Water, Cardo, stretch and strength done yesterday and today!

I actually RAN yesterday! It was the first time since HS! Felt great at the time but my legs were jello today and then the shred kicked my butt even worse. I may have to take a break tomorrow (only doing stretches and walking) to let my body heal.

Hey team!! Well my water goal is going great, I always do at least 40oz on the days i have therapy and about 32 on none therapy days. So, adding a few more ounces was easy! Stretching is a must and has been a daily routine for years, as itr helps me walk longer. I do sitting crunches which were recommended by my therapist which saves me from possible neck injury..the lunges, though modified have been done for the past 2 days except today. i think i will have to go back to getting my cardio from the pool though because my legs are very weak today , think i over did it with therapy and the lunges :-( either way i'm hoping this week some poundage will be lost :-) thanks you guys for the support! hope you all have a great weekend and keep up the great work..baby steps are steps regardless of the size :-)
