    SO far so good today! I have my walk to get in still, and part of the Bushman challange. I had to leave the house to help the old man out last night, so I lost 30 minutes plus, had to shut off dinner. A very yummy Cream of Potato soup, with chicken and wild rice. Very filling as well.

    Happy Stressful Wednesday! I kept twitching my nose hoping to turn my water into vodka today.. It didn't work.

    Wednesday challenge is done.

    I am going to do tomorrows challenge before DEVIL time. I will not be able to lift my arms after the session.

    How is everyone else doing

    I got my run in and then was going to do my challenge exercises for the day, but I don't think my leg can take it right now. :( I am seriously going to eat a low fat fudge bar and go to bed... the whole day has just been one I would do over if I could. lol

    SO far so good, half my water is down for the day, calories are looking great, and all the challenge exercises are in. Everone is doing great, keep up the hard work. Win loose or draw, you are doing your best, and that is what counts.

    When I'm doing the lawnmowers, my husband always thinks it's funny to say, "Haven't you started that darn thing, yet?" :indifferent:

    Okay. I'm back. Lol. Vacation was great but time to get back into it. I did complete Tues, Wed and Friday last week and my water was definitely over. Didn't log my food however, so I'm not sure about that and I did not weigh in last week. We'll see what happens this week. *fingers crossed*

    okay what drug addict made up the burpee exercise? Really???

    Can the elliptical count as miles? I just could do the treadmill this morning? I did 4 miles on the Elliptical. I guess I will be running place with my WII Fit tonight.. It tells me I'm doing well and have a good pace. LMAO

    All exercise for Monday and Tuesday are done. I also got in my extra 50 crunches and 1.5 miles per the football bets prior to this weekend (all the teams I wanted to win won, but I bet against the Lions because otherwise they would have lost, I just know it).

    Weigh in this morning puts me at 161.9 which puts me down 1.6 from last week, but only .3 from my original weight. I guess I should be happy with that, though. A loss is still a loss, right? Especially since following my weekend of drinking I was up to 164.5!!! So that means just by drinking water and being really careful about my choices, I'm down almost 3 pounds. hehe

    My body seriously fights dropping weight when I get close to the 0's and even more hates going from 0 to 9, so this might be a long month for me. The last time, I had to start 30-Day-Shred in order to get it to go to the 160s, and I'm almost considering doing it again just to get to the 150s. lol. I'm so ridiculous.

    ETA: Also, I have been great on water and my calories have been under, as well.

    Great job everyone! I stayed at 153! I'm starting to kick things up a notch, going for a 2+ pound loss for next week, I think it's my body holding onto sodium from this past weekend, I'm trying to avoid the scale until next tuesday morning, I'm praying for a 3 pound drop, but will be happy with 2 more off.

    TGIF!!!!

    So Glad it the weekend is here! I usually weigh myself on Fridays. I had a KickASS workout yesterday ( my shoulders are still sore).. I decided let see what the scale says.. I figured I would weigh the same this morning.. Wow, I was happily surprised.. I am so close to the 80lb's I can smell it.. Finger Crossed and closed mouth.. Next Week 80lb will be lost..


    I am not looking forward to next week challenges.. I am already imaging 20 burpees.. I do not like Burpees.

    How is everyone else doing?
