    Hola senoritas!! Hope you are all having a great day, I know I am.

    14/14 for January with a great workout today. Yesterday I did a 10 minutes Pilates routine but today, I kicked some butts :laugh: I did a 20 minutes Pilates routine lying on my mat, another one of 10 minutes standing up and I added a 18 minutes on my treadmill at 2.5 m/h. I had some chest pains during the last minute but I had to finish my lap :happy: 351 days left to do in 2013!!

    Another 20 minutes Pilates routine today for me and I am starting to push myself a little harder than what is demanded, This routine is done with what they call the magic circle and mine is not strong enough. I am going to get a stronger one in a couple of weeks to make things even harder. It feels good to be back on track and I hope to see some results on my abs and in my pants soon :happy: :happy:

    Hello ladies!! Hope everyone is doing fine. Today, I completed my 21st training of the month with a 40 minutes Pilates routine. I am not quite ready to do it all but with some modifications, I can do the 40 minutes and will be able to do all of the exercices in a month or so I hope. Take care and be good to yourselves :flowerforyou: :smooched: :flowerforyou: :smooched: :flowerforyou:

    Hello!!!!!!!
    .. Heather, having so much fun that you can't stand it? I hope so!!!

    4/7 for the week for me... spent a good deal of today reading about BMR and TDEE... oh my goodness.. makes my head spin! I am trying to eat a tiny bit more... gosh it is hard... but I should be losing consistently... and I am not... so I am giving it just a few more calories.... ugh!

    Hey ladies!!! Just a quick check in tonight, not enough time to catch everyone's posts, will check back in tomorrow.

    Sunday was 1/7 with a half marathon. Yep, I'm a nut and decided to just do it after all--even though I hadn't run at all in 2 months, and even though I never ran further than 7 miles. I ended up running intervals the whole time, but I finished in 2 hours and 47 minutes which isn't half shabby for not training. My foot seems to have miraculously healed, so I'm totally psyched!

    My 2/7 was a quick 3 mile run on the treadmill this evening.

    There was definitely walking, etc between Sunday and today, but not enough to count for real exercise. Besides, I ate and drank all those calories (and more!) back.

    Will check in again tomorrow with everyne. Have a good night!

    Good for you in the marathon Heatherand it is nice to hear to your foot is feeling better.

    Debra, I'll stick to my Pilates for now and let you do the BMR and other stuff like it, I won't even read about it :laugh: My ultimate goal is to try the Insanity workout that I bought. I won't go any further :laugh:

    On Thursday and Friday, I only walked for 10 minutes at 3m/h each day. Today, I did the 20 minutes Pilates routine and walked a mile in 20 minutes on the treadmill.

    I am now up to my 27th workout of the month with the 25 minutes Pilates routine. I also did some work for my shoulders and upper back using the elastic and it wasn't easy.

    I ended last week at 3/7 with a 4 mile run on Saturday.

    This week I'm 1/7 with 90 minutes of P90X Yoga today. Really enjoyed it!!

    Keep up the great work ladies! I'm planning P90X chest/back tomorrow morning. Have a great night!

    30th workout of the month. One more left to do. On Friday, I will intensify my workout a little. I won't do the 25 minutes Pilates routine anymore, I'll graduate to the 40 minutes Pilates routine
