    There's not that many left of us so I thought it shouldn't take more than 5 mins or so for the whole day. But that's up to you. I just thought it would give us a little extra to move around. :flowerforyou:

    I usually run 3-4 times a week, though I've been sick so I haven't run since Sunday a week ago. :( I also go to a Zumba class once a week, but last week I went twice. Wish I could do that all the time.

    I am a bad bunny. I really don't workout anymore. I use to do a total body transformation class weekly - KOSAMA. But my challenge ended & a new one started while I was on vacation. I haven't done much since. I have a ton of DVD's, but I can't get motivated enough to do them. I do my elliptical every now & then, but don't have the motivation to stay on for very long. I love to walk, but it's getting cold here. I really need to just join a gym.

    Gym won't really help if you aren't motivated to go there. you need to refind your motivation! Maybe get a different dvd? Or something totally different like a video game? I love my kinect! Or maybe some new piece of workout equipment like weights or a ball.

    getting back online today after a rough couple of days at work

    What is the one thing you can do today, that you could not or would not even try last year at this time?

    I'm another one who's caught the running addiction. the other thing I'm doing that I would never do before is bench press!

    I saw workout question as well

    Run 3-4 days a week
    2 days of cardio-strength intervals - mixing up heavy lifting, plyometrics and high intenstity cardio work
    1 day a week of mixed cardio - riding bike or elliptical

    Monday QOTD: What is the one thing you can do today, that you could not or would not even try last year at this time?
    Um drinking water is important say whaaaa? Its not that I couldn't do it, but I'm pretty much a camel so unless I'm dying of thirst I wouldn't bother. Now I'm not quite up to 8glasses EVERY day, but I'm way more conscious about it.

    My normal workout is the Tracy Anderson Metamorphosis. Basically half an hour cardio dance routine and a half hour toning (its way more intense than pilates, but that was the nearest thing I could compare it to)

    Way to go biggest loser winners! 7lbs???? I DIDN'T KNOW THAT WAS POSSIBLE!

    I don't do any set exercise yet other than lots of walking I have bought the 30ds but have been told not to do it for at least three weeks as I had keyhole surgery on my stomach yesterday so I'm afraid other than waking my arms around I can't do the challenges lol.

    I will give a daily challenge for today that I can do though. Make sure you eat your five a day today!

    Morning everyone!! Ok, so I've been doing the daily challenges but I'm struggling with getting all the water I need in and then some. Help!!! I've tried the mio but truthfully I can only take so much. I've started adding lemon slices but my question to everyone is......is there anything I can do to the lemon so I don't taste so much of the rind in my water?

    Try squeezing the lemon juice in the cup & ditch the lemon slice maybe. I quess I can't tell the difference. I love lemon in my water but don't do it all the time.

    Hey ladies, sorry i haven't posted in a while. I've been stalking ya'll but just haven't had much to say I guess. I'm finally starting to see the scale move some though. I haven't really done anything to help it along which has got me super confused. I haven't exercised at all in the last week but I have lost 1.2lbs this week.

    Good luck with weigh-ins ladies!

    I'm wondering the same thing. I don't want to miss the deadline. I didn't get an email either.

    I'm not looking into this weigh-in tomorrow. I've had a huge sinus headache/cold/period cramps all this week so I'm bloated plus I haven't been feeling up to burning many calories. I'm just hoping I lose a smidge!

    Thanks. This week was my biggest loss ever (not just on the challenge but since I joined MFP) so I really wanted to submit it to the challenge.

    Lots of talk from the Yellow Diamonds, where are all my Blue Ladies?! I had an alright loss... for me anyway:tongue:

    Nosug, That is so frickin' awesome! I remember when I had my biggest loss, it was 3lbs something in one week and I was so impressed with myself. Great work, it really is something to be proud of :flowerforyou:
