    Good morning mummies!! It is a wet, yet wonderful day in Atlanta. It seems the weather is showing signs of fall :love: i was able to get in a good hour burn yesterday and it felt great! I am going to aim for 20 minutes today, but its not certain...you know, kids need me :happy: what is your plan for today and how is your week so far? I am hoping for a pound this week. We shall see....going to get a cup of water and start my work day...ttyl!

    Good morning to you Lady T... and to all our new challenge members!! This is so wonderful that we have so many new faces and a brand new opportunity to make new friends! I love that!

    Here in Trinidad and Tobago, we are hot and sunny as usual... beautiful waters surrounding our islands and great big happy smiling faces, despite our Government continuing a Limited State of Emergency to deal with crime issues.... Our party island still finds ways to party!! lol... As for me, I'm hoping to hit a pool bar this weekend so I need to ensure I get all my exercise in for the week... and eat as clean as I can so when I drink a couple glasses of Johnny chased with Coconut water, I wont put on any llbs!! :blushing: As well, I might be having a "date" this weekend so I wanna look and feel great for that!

    I bought a Zumba DVD recently and started doing it on Monday of this week... so far I've done 110 minutes which is 10 mins short of 2 hours.. so if this week's mini challenge is indeed 2hrs for the week, then 12 minutes into today's workout, I'll be over that... I need to do at least 45 minutes per day to be able to continue losing weight, so I'm pressing on.

    I hope we all can make the time for ourselves this week and really kick off this challenge with a bang... We deserve the best of ourselves and our families deserve the best of us!!! Let's do this Mommies!!

    ps... again I say, for any new member that wishes to add me, feel free.. I sent out some requests but couldn't get to all of you! lol... have fun today girls!!

    Good morning mummies! Lets make it a good one! Yesterday was not a good food day..i ate whatever and drank whatever...im determined to get back on track today, so lotsa water and healthy eating today. I have not put a dent in my 2 hours of cardio this week yet so i plan to hit the pavement for 30 minutes today to start. Mimi, how is training going? I signed up for my 1st 5k on October 2nd as a motivational tool to get out there and exercise. Whats your plan for the day ladies? I have been aiming for less carbs and i go along in my journey im still pineing for cetain things so i am tweeking my diet, as i want this to be a lifestyle change. So i have added back milk, which is not used alot in low carb world, and i also am having bread on occasion (whole wheat) as i love sandwiches. Although i want to cut back on carbs, i dont want to cut them completely as that is not realistic fom me personally. Lets do this mummies!!:wink::wink:
    yes it is...thats the goal...i broke it down to 30 minutes 4x a week.
    Hey I have a question Toya... is that 2 hours total per week??

    Got in my second day of 30DS last night so I am also well on my way to meeting the mini goal for the week. I am wondering if my weight loss will slow because I am doing 30DS. I have heard that people lose a lot of inches but not so much weight. What have any of your experiences been if you have done this program?

    I came in under my calorie goal again yesterday (actually a little too far under once I worked out). I will try to do better today. I am at work right now so I will do day 3 of 30DS when I get home tonight.

    Hope you all have a wonderful day!

    my experience was a loss each week.. i lost 10 pds in a month. i think it depends on how good u did with your food as well. if you have a good food week and you do 30ds everyday, u should, if u eat alot or over your calories u probably wont see a loss with just jillian. its trial and error, but i lost big time....love 30DS! you guys are really tempting me, lol!

    Tracy- It may slow down your loss the first week or so, but by day 10 both rounds i was down a lot. And it is a lot of inchs lost, in the 2 rounds i lost 20 inch... but I also lost 15lbs between the 2 rounds so it is definitly worth it!!!

    LaToya.... ya know ya wana.... SHRED!!! You can jump in at any time but its day 3 so 2 days of double would get you caught up... hehe... tempting I know!!! :bigsmile:

    Ok so now my Mommy venting for the day. Its a big day for me... my baby Colton... ok my 4 1/2 year old baby, had his 1st day of PreK today.... He was so excited and so ready that he came in at 5am and woke me up, he was fully dressed, even had his back pack already on, wanting me to cut the price tag off his shirt. He was so excited all morning. I was sure I would be the mom in her car crying her face off in the parking lot...:sad: .... I am happy to say, that although my eyes filled with water a few times, and the lump in my throat was so large I could barely talk, I did not cry! He marched right in there put his stuff in his cubby, and got down to business! :smooched: So grown up he could care less that I was leaving! But the good news is I get to go get him in 45 minutes! :laugh: Mommies not counting down the minutes or anything!!!

    Also, as MrsWilson said... today is my little sisters 21st bday!!! MrsWilson and I are taking her out and breaking her in good! :drinker: I am still nursing Easton so I will be DD. WHich means i get to sit back and watch and :laugh: ! Anyhow that is what is new with me. On top of my shredding, my other goal for the month is to be 100% honest and log 100% of what i eat in my food diary! So if you are my friend on here, feel free to check it out daily and comment!

    Hope you all have a great wednesday! ~Kristyn
