    Been super busy the last few days, but i'm restarting my week with P90x, skipped bicycle this morning, I went to bed too late yesterday and had something to take care of urgently (that was bugging me).

    Hope you all have a great week :)

    Had a heck of a weekend and fell off the wagon a bit, but eh, it happens. Not gonna beat myself up for it!
    Anyway, so here's my workout today:

    Warmup (2 rounds)
    200 meter run
    10 pullups
    10 pushups
    10 squats

    Workout: "Murph" (for time which was 67:50 for me)
    1 mile run
    100 pullups
    200 pushups
    300 squats
    1 mile run

    Murph is an especially difficult workout but there is a reason for doing it today. Every Memorial Day, it is tradition for CrossFit to hold what is called a "Hero WOD" in honor of those that have fallen in battle. This workout is called "Murph" in honor of Navy Lt. Michael Murphy. I hope everyone takes a minute to remember those that made the ultimate sacrifice in the midst of all of those Memorial Day barbecues because that is what today is about. Cheers to your health!

    Happy Memorial Day in USA everyone ....
    Reading all of your posts make me smile

    From Jules and hubby ..is he still alive,,hahahah
    To Tracy with your hours and you still making it happen ..No whipping body .just keep seeing your body in shape
    and YOU will NOT give up ..
    Miss Franch Canadian ,starting say one aagain P90X after yoru birthday weekend and busy shedule
    and Mis TMET1207 :) Love your post to and contribute to thsi day so true and I will rememeber
    Miss D ..Spring cleaning is a workout for sure !!!!!!

    Life throws us curve balls sometimes ,some days and we may even go off track for a day or 2 and that is OK ,its the getting right back on track with NO beating up one self
    I trully believe the self negative talk of beating one self up is what keeps us off track ...and our enviroment ,those around us can play a big role to ...It makes the challenge more fun ?? not sometimes LOL :)

    Let it all go and go with YOUR flow your journey here and enjoy it ....Enjoy the challenges and the triumphs ,
    Just know the bad days teach us inner strength and tests us to see what we are made of ...The good days makes the bad days seem like NO BIG DEAL ...

    It may take sometime to find your body rhythm and fit dance and flow and glow ....
    It may take sometime to figure out all this eating for your body and when and how much and water in take
    These are all new habits being formed into you life now ,and new habits replacing old ones does not happen over night

    But once you are aware of wanting to make these changes and start day by day to implement baby steps in of new you habits ,you don't have to wake up and change everything all at once ..Just day by day be aware and add in tweaks and changes and you will see ...one day you will wake up and be like ..hey I am doing this now ,like drinking allot more water every day ,and I am eating breakfast now and better foods for my body ...and hey I am eating more little healthy meals throught teh day instead of starving body and then eating allot ...

    Hey I am doing this ...They say its takes 21 days to make something a habit ,so be easy about all of this ,even if it takes little longer
    We are NOT on a DIET here ...what are the 3 LETTERS in DIET ??? .............DIE !!!
    That does not sound liek fun to me :)
    WE ARE CREATING a all a new YOU ,'Lifestyle " ..changes new you

    So love your self every day
    congratualte your self every day
    learn something new about you and your habits now and what you want to change and add in for the better
    and take it day by day and swap out the old with the new habits ..the new YOU

    Its my big spring clean hours here today in house ..and I am ready to BRING IT :)
    Check in laterrrrrrrrrrrrrr

    ENJOY everyone
    have fun with creating ....recreating an all a new you ..be easy on you

    Think of your body as a engine ,your enegine ...and what do YOU think your body needs to run and perform and shape into the
    sculpture that you want ???
    IS IT sugars and empty caloires or no food ,hardly at all or no water ???

    Don;t think so ...

    Love
    Ev
    Ps
    What ever your current goal is of water ,make it a goal to increse it today ...increse it this week even more
    Reach for water ..don't sip it ,drink it :)

    Right now I am doing basicly walking. Rest of my workout is coming from our major house clean. Time to go through everything. If we didn't wear it last season out it goes. If it don't fit for this season out it goes. Same principle with everyroom of the house. Didn't use it out it goes. Dont need it out it goes.

    Again got a little over a mile walk in today. Also did some hand weights. Having a hard time with my motivation right now. But still trying to move some everyday. This spring cleaning has really made it hard to much stuff out everywhere not enough space to workout. Got to get this done.

    I got the day off today, and managed to do two things I love to do incorporated, play with my great nephew 3 and great niece 10 and get some excercise in. Tonight took my niece for a 4km walk, she had trouble keeping up with me, but, I'm working on getting her to learn to be fit and healthy. Hoping to go to the gym or pool tommorow.

    Thank Shawn! I have been doing the Supermans and I feel pretty good. I have tried yoga and I really like the stretching but for some reason the arches of my feet hurt bad whenever I do it. Is this a common thing or are my feet just weird??? LOL

    I see this all the time and I was one of them to who did this ,
    hope this is helpful to you

    Most people who achieve success on body they seek and complete a program they bought and see results
    have
    1) a coach to push them dail ,inspire and helpt keep that commitment
    2) support
    3) accountabilty ( groups , challenge ,coach )

    On our own we tender fail and ponder ,and get off track very fast :)

    We all buy programs and most of us have many at home right now
    but have never started from beginning to end of program as is from start to finish
    so we keep on buying more ,ther next one "this is going to be the one ":)
    That high for now :)

    We do it for a week or 2 , 3 or even 30 days and get bored want something else
    because you did not see it happen fast enough ( when your results for YOUR body
    if you kept on going was right around the corner ) you may need another round

    EVERYBODY's body is different and unique design of time of when it all kicks in
    gear and body changes When I decided to finally do P90X for 90 days as it was laid out NO wavering off plan

    That's when my body and life changed for me It was deciding , committing to the 90
    days of P90X as it was laid out not wavering off
    Then BBL I started to do my own thing when I got it ,pick this DVD this day and so on and was not getting
    what I wanted and went ''Hello " ( habits) how is this program laid out daily and so I did and then increased my weights
    when I got stronger and then I really starting seeing changes and now ankel weights and hello even more

    Programs work and give results and they are designed for a reason ,
    laid out as is to follow for a reason every day a " structured program "

    I need this 4 me big time ,If you don"t get the results from a program that you bought
    chances are you never started and went to the finish line!!

    Meaning if you talk to someone about a home program that did not work for them ,
    The 'I tried that did not do anything " comment ..Stop next time instead of just going
    OK thanks good to know and I won't buy that then or try that :)

    Ask ,how long did you do it for and did you do the program as it is laid out
    and follow healthy meal plan daily ? Ask did you commit to it as it is laid out and follow it
    daily as plan says to do ??? :) Chances are they will say ..No ,I did it for few weeks saw nothing ,or even 30 days
    and no I picked workouts and did this and that :)

    Or yes I did it as it was for 30 days saw nothing ,or maybe even longer ..and if they would have just kept going
    there body would have showed them ,would have changed..They were probally 2 feet from seeing it but quit
    EVERYBODYS body is unique and different when your results will show up ,when your body will kick into gear

    IT DOES NOT have to be a home fitness program ,that you follow but whatever it is layout a plan and stick to it
    layout a gym plan rountine mixing it up ,but lay it out and commit and stick to it

    and most of all I have learned to ask people who have what I want as far as being in shape
    If you are going to the gym and see somone in shape ,if your a female ask a female ,if your a male ask a male who has the body and shpe you seek ..."'Ask whats your gym plan " do you mind if I ask you ?
    They will not mind at all ..BUT don't ask someone who is not in shape YET ,whats your gym plan :)

    Same with a home program ,seek out what you want and people who have done it ,had results and
    ask "HOW they did it " do the same thing and you will get results

    Hope this makes sense

    We want that magic pill ,instant results and when we don't see them fast enough we think its the program
    and its not ...AGAIN Your body has its own thermastat and time when it wants to come on and work with you and its
    different from mine and each of us and we are not seeking to be PERFECT ..I am sure not ,but to be perfectly happy and
    peace within and love who we are and enjoy our journey ..AND changing habits and creating new ones and lifestyle is a process just like getting out of shape and putting on weight ..

    That did not happen over night ,and getting out of shape and putting on weight is just habits daily of doing things that put on weight ,makes sense right when you think about it ,BUT we want it off now :)
    So now we are all learning to become aware about this and change this ,create new habits daily that will take it off and keep it off

    We let " shinny " objects call us over here there and every where:)
    If it was easy everyone would do it and be healthy and in shape It's NOT always
    easy to stay focused every day and push play or what ever you are choosing of workouts
    Life does show up

    BUT it's WORTH it It maybe YOU already have decided and your commited and I know many of you are and so happy for you
    but maybe for some its time to decide and commit once and for all and pull out that program you have or get a new one if you feel you need to and or gym rountine ,create a sctructured GOAL plan for the 90 days ',"or 30 at a time " if you are not following a laid out plan and then follow it daily!
    " Bring it "
    NO QUITTING!!!
    QUITTING Is not an option if your serious about getting in shape and fit and SEXY forever
    And I KNOW all of you are why we are connected ..everything happens for a reason and no coicedences
    we are together here

    What I do know is if you stick to a rountine daily ,new habits ,new rituals ,commit for 90 days to it and here in this group ,you will change
    I am here for you and I AM so grateful all of you are here with me on this amazing journey :)

I managed to workout for 192 minutes today!! which equalled- 982 Calories burned... not sure if this is my record or not... but I'm still standing, so know that I got it in me. When I got off work I went on an amazing hike- yeah I got lost too, but it was still an amazing hike called the "High Knoll", - 4.7 km INCLINE up to 600 ft... the view was so worth it!!
