    I feel extremely run down today... my body is weak and I feel very low on energy. I am going to do the challenge today but I don't think I will complete my miles today. I need to listen to my body and slow down for a day.... I will add a mile tomorrow and the next day so that I won't let my team down since I committed 12 miles this week! I wish I could pedal my miles on a bike! I can only walk them as I don't have a gym membership AND I have to lug my 5 year old behind me (and she starts whining after the first mile, lol)!

    Hope everyone has a good day today!

    Take it easy! We don't want you getting injured or hurt. You are a winner already by trying so hard. Truly inspirational :flowerforyou:

    Here's today's stats.

    50 mins of BL Last Chance Workout (Need a good cardio/strength training workout, this is it!)
    1 mile walk (4 out of 10 for the week)
    50 Ab Crunches
    100 Mountain Climbers

    Not doing so well on my water so far (only 40 oz), but I plan on getting to at least 96 oz by the end of the day.

    Will be under calorie goal as I'm making Sweet and Sour Chicken stir-fry (submitted recipe in the forum) which only has 221 calories per serving. :happy:

    Water - 112oz down so far! +1
    Food - Logged and I will be under! +1
    Challenge - Even though my body was screaming at me to stop, I did 100 in-air-bicycle cycles (a modified exercise for my bad knee for those mountain climbers) and 100 ab crunches (50 regular, 25 left side, 25 right side) +1

    And I *did* get 1 mile done this evening to make my miles walked so far this week as 5 out of 12.

    Today I did 50 crunches and 50 mountain climbers in addition to my regular workout, plus did 2 more miles to bring my total to 12 out of 15. I'm within my calories for the day, but don't think I had enough water. :(

    Here is my recipe for the upcoming fall season! All time favorite.

    1/2 cup of pumpkin....not the presweetened kind
    1/2 cup of 2% Milk or Almond Unsweetened
    1 tsp of pumpkin spice
    1 tsp of vanilla
    1/2 cup of Oikos Plain NONFAT Greek Yogurt

    addtl you can add a scoop of protein powder if you have vanilla. I don't care for chocolate with this.

    Makes a great fall protein shake or remove the protein powder for smoothie.

    Feel free to add addt'l sweetner to your liking.

    Nutritional Value varies due to type of milk and protein shake.

    This should come in between 250 - 400 calories.

    I LOVE THIS!
