Yea and I have realized that only about 6 or so of us talk on here from the Purple Team. Where is everyone?

crystal_sapphire

i'm not sure... i really hope everyone keeps posting their weights every week, even if they aren't losing or doing too well. i know i plan to even if i gain to keep myself accountable for my binging issues

Hey I'm on, just got back from a powerwalk... I wish I could run but according to my HRM my heart rate goes up too high when I run so I run for a bit then powerwalk run for a bit then power walk and eventually I get to a powerwalk session where it takes forever for my heart rate to come back down so I just keep powerwalking. I was going to only do 30min but since I posted the challenge to the purple team today I pushed for an extra 5 min!

renae77

Thats great!! I never did make it up to do any exercises. Tomorrow I will work on doing that!! Promise!! Keep it up!!

supermom1114

well I got my new running shoes so I just HAD to try them out lol and I did my 100 pushups challenge initial test today too :bigsmile:

renae77

I did do some crunches and i tried to do push ups but all I got was 5 on my knees. Not too great but I did try. I got quite a bit more crunches in than that though!! Much easier but I can feel the burn!

I just made Fiber One chicken strips from Hungry Girl recipe book. WOWE!! Are they ever DELICIOUS!!!! Has anyone tried them? I would highly suggest them, I couldn't believe it. Mmmm. It makes enough for two servings too! I tried mine with egg substitute, hot sauce, bbq sauce and they ALL tasted wonderful.

Here is the site w/ recipe:

Thanks Stephica! I saved that link so I could try that! It sounds good and not fattening at all!

I'm here for a few. I'm waiting for the DH so we can go do the bowflex workout. So how did everyone do with their calorie intake?

Fitness_Chick

I ended up with about 4 calories left after I drink my cup of coffee! And I have had about 10 cups of water today. Wow that is 80 ounces! See I can count!:bigsmile:

Hey Fitness Chick!
If you happen to jump back into our threads again...LOL.... I have been looking into your threads too! Your people are talking and posting more than any of ours. Guess my team doesn't like to talk too much and I do! :embarassed: I am a talker!!!!!:laugh:

that's awesome!!!! Great on calories. I was -4 that's what prompted me to do the cardio now I've got some to spare. :laugh: Great on the water too. I've noticed if I go over 9 cups than I don't get much sleep. Way too many bathroom breaks!!:blushing: So I try to stay between 8 and 9. But, amazingly I'll still be thirsty even though I use to barely drink one a month ago and was fine. Strange thing our body!!!:huh:

renae77

Thank ya thank ya! I have tried majorly hard! I went from drinking soft drinks, tea, and coffee to just water and coffee. That was so hard for me because I love soft drinks! I have kept good on my calories for a whole week and the scale is showing it. Now if my clothes would loosen up I would be sooooo happy! Keep up hun!

stephica

No problem at all, they are honestly so good!!! Mmm! I baked them with a small red potato, I cut them up into small pieces (like french fries) with some cooking oil on them. Delicious. ha ha.

stephica

I also love pop. I'm more into diet coke and I don't really find it a problem until I'm out at a restaurant! I could drink 4-5 at one sitting. Bad bad me.

However, I have found a true love for Crystal Light, the pink lemonade.

suprjewels

They will loosen! I promise and you can keep me to that. Gotta go now! DH has abandoned me to the machine. Will see you all tomorrow!!

renae77

Have a good one Suprjewels!!
I also love Crystal Light. The Wild Strawberry and White Grape are 2 of my favorites!

my people?? :blushing: Well probably because they all joined up together and all asked to be on the same team...:laugh:

I'd probably have jumped on the bandwagon if I was joining in on the challenge this time myself... much more fun with chatty groups...keep chatting Renae...folks will come around!!:bigsmile:

Just think on some fun challenges and start gabbin!!! Really makes the challenges much more fun when you all get to know one another...but I do understand it can get challenging to feel you're only be a small handful chatting:ohwell: Give it a bit more time, once the shows started it'll pick up Hon!:bigsmile:

renae77

Thanks Fitness Chick! I hope it does pick up! I do love to talk a lot and I want some fun people on our team. I know of one lady that already switched teams because she couldn't get a response on our team. I have talked to a few and know that there are plenty more out there. So Purple Team if you are out there, get your booty in here and chat with me!!! Lets make nice and be friends!:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:
