    Tues 18th Oct

    Was very, very bad yesterday and managed to fit in zero exercise except walk the dog in the evening!!!

    Had client shoot in the morning and then photos to edit from the weekend's shoot to get to a corporate client so had zero time for anything. Felt terribly guilty about it too!!

    Same for me, not sure what I started with, but I do different workouts each day, it's hard to keep up to extra calories when each day is different workouts....nevermind! At least we're all still posting, nearly the end of the month!!

    Almost near the end of this month! How does everyone feel they have done this month so far? I guess with Tuesday just around the corner we'll find out how we have really done.

    I think for a lot of us it's been difficult to stick to this challenge, as we have different workouts on different days and sticking to doing extra each day doesn't work like that. But if we have been making each day of same workouts better each time it must be showing!!

    Looking forward to seeing how everyone has done on Tuesday!! So Monday will be our last workout to post and Tuesday will be pats on the back all round!!!!! :happy:
