    Im crazy! On a 90 degree day (feels 96 bc of the humidity) I decided to start my first day of c25k! I feel amazing:)

    Wow! That is dedication! Did you do your squats today???

    I just got frustrated at work, got up left my desk and went for a quick walk to calm down. Before I would've gone to the cafe downstairs, bought one of their delicious chocolate cookies and ate my feelings. I call that desision a win baby! Plus I took the stairs!

    Hi Lynda,
    Where are you tonight?
    I hope your day turned out a little better!
    Did you complete your challenges for the day??

    Okay Team Green,
    I think I got everyone, I hope you all had a fantastic day!
    I will try to come up with some kind of spreadsheet for us so we can keep up with our results. Any artists out there want to come up with a team signature?

    Go Team Green!

    Hi Team Green!
    Where are all my girls at?? I am going to go on another bike ride with my hubby tonight, I feel tired but I am going to go ahead and go for it!

    If you girls could make a post at the end of the day and let me know you completed all your goals for the day so that I can keep track of our points that would be fabulous.
    If your leaving for the weekend or something just let me know that you will complete your challenge that would be great.

    Hi! Sorry for not reporting last night. I met my goals for yesterday and today, even the kitchen close one which was tough cuz my husband made popcorn last night at 835, but i was like "not for me baby!"

    Not only did I meet my exercise goals, I totally exceeded the wealking requirement today. I put in 2 hours of walking. Granted, it was at a slower pace then usual but still, I got 'er done!

    Also, exciting news that I want to share with you all: when I weighed in yesterday I was a little bummed because I had only lost 1.5 lbs for the week. Less than usual. But I sorta figured that was because my TOM had just ended and I was still feeling a little bloated. I don't ususally make a habit of weighing myself daily, but I woke up this morning and I just felt lighter, so I figured I'd step in the scale. I was down another 2.9lbs!!!! That puts me at 238.1, which is the lowest I have been in a loooong time! I was so pumped that I had to share!

    I hope everyone is having a good day and staying motivated! Go Green!

    Grrr I just posted but my internet stopped working for some reason! Anyway! sorry for posting later, but had a busy evening and then was working on tutu's for a costume contest we are doing at the Mud Run we are running in on Saturday! But I'm here!!!

    I did my squats with 8# weights and I did laps in the pool again tonight. Was like a prune when I got out of there tonight! I did pretty good today! My kitchen was closed by 9:30 tonight and of course I did want a snack! But I stayed strong! I know snacking at night is one of my weaknesses so this has been good to help that!! Hope everyone had a great day today!!

    I hate when that happens or when I just get finished writting a msg and my son thinks its super cute to come in here and push the power button on my computer! LOL

    So your hosting a mud Run, I hope this isn't a silly question but what is that?

    Congrats on staying strong with the kitchen closing time, this part of the challenge helps me alot too. Late snacking has always been one of my weekneses.

    Go Green!

    How many calories do you guys usually have left at the end of the day? I am just curious.
  • babydbones
    babydbones Posts: 135 Member
    No, I' not hosting a mud run. But I'm participating in one. It's a 6 mile Mud Run/Obstacle course. We will be running thru mud and climbing over boulders and doing monkey bars and a huge slide. There's a ton of obstacles. I just hope I don't break anything! I'm a little nervous about that LOL. But it's tomorrow at 10 am!


    Good job on the workouts! I know that I got tired when I first started working out too but you will get used to it!!!

    I don't typically have any calories left over. Occasionally I do but not usually. I sometimes go over too. I get allotted 1200 calories a day.

    As far as calories remaining I usually have 300-500 after I input my exercise, the other day I only had 150 but I ate more that day. I am at 1200 calories as well.

    Ya I feel our thread has been super slow, not sure why?? I completed all my challenges today as well. I am going to make some dinner it's only 7:40 here, and I will be back to post again. Hope to see our teams progress posted soon.

    I completed my sqats as well today. I didn't do a workout today tho wanted to 'rest' for tomorrow's big adventrue! But I did good today. I was only over my calories by 7 calories. so that's not bad!! And my kitchen closed at 9:30!

    O and back to what I wrote before about how many calories remaining, i try not to eat any of the excerise calories that I burn. That way I can lose more. But i don't beat myself up if I do eat some. But I usually have all my exercise calories burned left over.
