I have really been struggling lately. I don't what it is, but I have just been so tired. Anyway I guess the post is just to tell you guys to harass me when you have time. I have a paper due tomorrow and hopefully when that is out of the way I can get back on track with exercise. Sigh... Ok pity part y ended. Thanks for listening0

You're not the only one. Last week was really rough and I gained 2 pounds. This week I'm making myself do ALL the challenges and I have a goal to walk or elliptical 10 miles this week. I hope it works. We can do this!0 -
Seems like a lot of us on the team are struggling lately. I know I have been, no questions asked! this has been the roughest month this year for me hands down. I haven't gotten very much exercise in but what I have I can honestly say it's becaue of MFP and this team. I also have been bad about tracking. I got back on today after a week (sorry) because of the team and I knew I was also hurting myself. This week I am trying to make a slow come back. it doesn't help though that I am battling a sinus headache/infection/head cold thing that just won't go away! Grr!
Anyway, keep up the good work ladies you definitely are my motivation!

This month's been rough for me too. Going back to school, at a different school, with classes basically all day is making it really hard for me to have time to do anything. You girls are my motivation as well, and keep doing what you can!

So, does anyone else get ovarian cysts? I get one every month (working with the doc on this one) and it makes crunches an issue. Any thoughts?0

I don't get them but I have a friend that does, and I know there are some days that she just doesn't want to move. Perhaps you should try something other than crunches, but that still works the abs. What about the plank?0 -
This month is teh suckage. Still, we can do this! NO MERCY!
"So, does anyone else get ovarian cysts? I get one every month (working with the doc on this one) and it makes crunches an issue. Any thoughts?"
I've had them before and got these recommendations with the caveat that if it hurts too much don't do it:
Firstly- anytime you bring your knees above your belly button, you're working your abs.
Twisting from side to side (keep hips stationary) works the obliques.
Stand with one leg in front of the other, weight on the back leg, and pull you hips "up" toward your shoulders, and crunch your shoulders down toward your hips - it's like a standing crunch. Then do it again with the other leg in front.
Put your weight on one leg, and with the other, lift that knee to the side up higher than your belly button. Do this in fast repetitions. That will also work obliques.
Simply standing normally, pull your belly button in toward your spine. Do that in fast repetition.0 -
Luckily I only have an issue about 2 days a month. Of course, those 2 days land on the week that extra crunches are our challenge :noway:
I have been doing whacky jacks (look them up on youtube) instead of jumping jacks because my foot is whacked out. I'm soooo sore from doing those on my obliques. I like them much better than JJ's.
Man, I turn 33 this year and it really sounds like I'm falling apart.

Hey guys sorry I've been totally MIA these past two weeks.... Been very hectic around here, sounds like everyone is having difficulty! Hang in there guys and thanks for the motivation! I can honestly say that the only reason I got back on here to log is because of you guys, besides the fact that I've been feeling like crap cuz of how I've been eating! But I'm determined to get back on track!! Hows everyone doing??0
