Good morning, all! It's a wonderful day in the Ozarks, where I live! All the spring flowering trees are so lovely and the green leaves are starting to come out. Spring is a great motivator to be outside!

04/07: <<<Goal! 235>>>

I have kind of stalled out a little. I don't think I will make the goal I set at the beginning of this challenge, but I will try to move a little more the remainder of the challenge and see how close I can get! I bought a Wii balance board and the Wii Fit Plus game so I could do some in the house, but even that is so exhausting for me. My first "workout" was one strength training round that took only 11 minutes, and I was tired out! I don't have this fibromyalgia stuff worked out so well. Oh, well, I will just keep trying!


Dixedreg and Shirleybl - I agree: why does it have to be so slow sometimes?

rosiebug - congratulations on reaching Onderland! I have a ways to go and can hardly wait!

sallycc - sorry about your pinched nerve. I know that kind of thing really hurts and puts a cramp in doing anything!

kristinkt and juliadav - don't worry; keep working and the old numbers will be history!

kris1085 and Darina23 - keep working at it. Sometimes we all have a catch up week where it seems our bodies take a rest, then the next week or so we show a loss. Don't give up!

Mrsgstone and Pam3 and Bluiz13 - keep working at it...try to think about why you started this journey in the first place to get your motivation and optimism going again.

I hope I spelled everyone's username correctly!

redbird99

Also, bluiz13, I like the picture you have in your weight loss ticker!

Good morning hope everyone is awake and ready for Monday! Still at 188.5 need to shake things up now.

sorry i missed the weigh in. I was 179.8 so only down 0.2 this week. I've had a crazy day. Left the house at 8:15am and just in after midnight! Off to bed now.

kcthatsme

sorry i missed the weigh in. I was 179.8 so only down 0.2 this week.

But that 0.2 put you in the 170s so... Woo hoo for you!!

sew1222

i hit my original goal that i had set, but i didnt hit my new goal. im kinds bummed about that but i know i can lose 10lbs with the next challenge!!! your such a great host! and we ALL thank you for hosting these challenges!

SallyCC

Thanks Kristin!!! Great job with the chart!

Congrats Rosiebug..what a great milestone!

Roni_M

"winning losers"....love the phrase!!! Don't know if it's because it's early or what but that struck me funny and made me choke on my coffee! LMAO



Edited because apparently without a full cup of coffee into me I lack spelling and/or typing skills.

bluiz13

happy to be down that 5.2 but i went UP it the weeks before....so i'll wait to see if anyone else posts a challenge and if they dont than i'll add one to the thread....i just want to get out of the 170s....seriously i'm over being in the 170s and then jumping into the 180s and then back into the 170s....hopefully i can play with the 160s and the 170s soon enough and i wont feel like such a complete bum lol.....great work to everyone who lost this week and kudos to those that are hanging in there to finish this challenge and then starting up the next one....have a great week, denise

mrsgstone

Can't believe I'm a winner! Yahoo! Here's an ab workout I've been doing on and off... I can't believe the results you get after just one workout! Each set is only 5 minutes so there's no excuse! My challenge to myself and all of you is to complete 2 sets of this ab workout 3 times this week. :happy:

http://youtu.be/Y6ZTzUEtPTI

It's called Best Ab WOrkout Circuit by Tone It Up

A quick note about the new challenge... If you haven't joined yet and you decide that you want to, if it says "closed", I will add you anyway. :happy:

kcthatsme

sew1222 - You did fabulous hitting your original goal! It's okay that you didn't reach the next one. You reached farther TRYING instead of being complacent with what you attained. Great job!

Bluiz13 - I hope you can play with the 160s/170s soon also. :-)

mrsgstone - Thank you so much for the ab challenge!

Everyone - Do any of you have buns saggier/wigglier, etc than you want? What about thighs? Tne thing I'm going to incorporate for these is (since lunges really hurt my knees and squats almost as much) step ups on an 18" box (or whatever height your knees can stand). Up right foot, up left foot, down right foot, down left foot. Do that for awhile and then reverse to start with your left foot. When it gets easier, hold weights!
