    Another day done. Did the side lying pilates again. I tied to do some of the standing pilates, but my foot could not handle it. It feels good to be working out again though!!!

    Water intake could have been better, but I did make sure to get some. And I drank some herbal tea. Does anyone know if that counts as water intake?

    I am under in the calorie intake. This was one of the days when I don't even miss the food. No extra cravings. It would be easier if every day was like that.

    I am pre-planning for chocolate tomorrow. Ahh.... can't wait!!! :happy:

    A couple days late, but I hope I can still join -- I'm needing some help with motivation. :) I have 53 pounds to go, but I'm going to work on 15 for the challenge.

    1. Add 2 cups of water more. Check.
    2. Unfortunately I am over calories today.
    3. The new exercise I will try at least once this week is jumping rope.

    15lbs by Aug would be a great start for me. I have never done a challenge before, so I am hoping this will motivate me to keep going.

    My results for today:

    Water: I didn't get in my 32 oz but that's ok. Will try again tomorrow!
    New exercise: Nothing new. I did my Insanity workout today!
    Calories: I'm under today! I'm at 4/7 for the week.

    I think I might like to join this challenge too. This summer I plan on loosing a lot of weight how much? Well I'm not sure but as much as possible...... What does that mean well I'd like to say 20 lbs. but I work out to much and take other supplements to gain muscle so for me I have noticed it's more about how I feel and how my clothes fit. Than it is about what the scale says my current weight is..


    If I joined this challenge it MAY help to keep me motivated and on the right track.

    Looking good everyone!

    I've been out of town for my mom's birthday and I always have a hard time figuring out how much I'm eating when I'm not the one cooking. I haven't been logging because of this, but I have still been trying to make health decisions.

    The new challenges will be up sometime tomorrow, to start Tuesday!

    Found a daily workout plan on someones pin interest so I decided to try it out. It only took 10 minutes and only burned 37 cals - but it will be great for strenghening. For Sunday I did 45 Jumping jacks, 15 squats, 5 jumping squats, 50 russian twists, 30 second plank, 10 standing calf raises, 5 kneeling push ups, 30 seconds superman, 10 lunges each leg and 40 crunches. Taking a break from cardio today.

    Still havent got the garage cleaned out, really windy here today, so not sure if I want to do that today either. Was a little over the calories yest, but not by much.

    I have days like that too. How long was your hike? Sometimes, if I go to long between "little" meals or I am dehydrated, I will have an uncontrollable hunger. The days that PMS is an issue can make it pretty nasty too!!

    Its a bank holiday weekend here, for me that means a night out drinking last night. (NOT GOOD!!) I will need to hit the exercise hard this week to make up for the weekend splurge. :D

    Did okay today even though we had a pot luck lunch after church. It was really difficult to enter the food. Hopefully I entered close enough.

    I had a late start, but I got my water in. Looking forward to weigh in on Tuesday. I don't know if I will have lost anything, because I am trying to get some muscle back, but I am definitely feeling better.

    Under calories - 1/5 Check
    Two extra cups of water - Check
    New exercise - I haven't jumped rope yet, because I haven't exercised while being away this weekend. I decided to also join the 24 hr challenge for June, so I'm pretty pumped about working out this week. :)


    Happy Monday, everyone!

    Oh, I would love to join! I've been on MFP for awhile now, but I knew that when I started I was going to have the opportunity to really focus until late May/early June. So, now I'm ready! This challenge would really be the best way to kick it off for me! I'm really excited about all of the activity! I hope it's ok if I track my activities daily (accountability!).
