    Tuesday check in -

    Exercise done...my legs still hurt from the tabata!

    Under in sodium, but over in cals! This heat wave is killing me - I just had to have some ice cream!
  • Dilemma:
    Why do avacados have so many calories???!!
    I wonder the same thing! Avacado is one of my favourite foods! I could literally eat the whole thing in one sitting (and often do) I get through it by thinking well, it's got calories, but it's still way better for me than a Mars bar.

    Tuesday - exercises done
    Under sodium, although I don't think the food log is counting all the salt I have as in my packet of french fries crisps it says i had no sodium though I know they have salt on them. I'm going to have to remember to check that and add it on if it doesn't count it.

    Wednesday
    I did 35 minutes on the elliptical and 9 minutes walking to cool down.
    Also under on sodium. We had breakfast for supper tonight and I discovered that I don't have to salt my eggs. They were just fine with turmeric and Mrs. Dash.

    Hi Josie! Great to have you join us! :happy:

    Wed. 30 min on the elliptical & under on sodium. Did lesson plans almost all day & didn't feel like exercising...so, I treated myself to an episode of Grey's Anatomy while I was on the machine!

    Please add 35 minutes of bike riding to my exercises today. Hubby announced that he wanted us to go for a ride after supper. We ended up doing a little over 5 miles.

    Wednesday check in -

    Under sodium!

    Exercise - I wanted to post that I went out and ran for my 30 mins...but it was WAY too hot here! Nso I just stayed inside and a Leslie Sansone Walk at Home video! 2 miles in 30 mins

    I hope everyone is having a good week so far! I will be contacting anyone who hasn't checked in this week yet.
  • Wednesday check in:

    Under in sodium
    Exercise: I did 90 minutes of ballet (was supposed to be 60, but my class ran over) and I walked for 30 minutes, so I did 2 hours yesterday.
    Good day to have free choice as I don't think my body would have taken much more after ballet. It may look graceful, but that is one grueling workout! I have muscles hurting in places I didn't know I even had muscles. Good job it's so fun. :smile:

    Under on sodium and exercise complete! All those exercises are in Jillian's 30 Day Shred Level 1 (except the triceps which I did later). My nieces were over visiting & so they and my 8 year old joined me for the workout. Very fun!! They loved the 2 & 3 lb hand weights.

    Thursday
    Under sodium and workout done. I added a little more to it because I really do enjoy arm workouts, which is good since that is where I fall short.

    Amy, great that you got the kids involved! That is a very positive example.

    Thursday check in -

    Exercises done!

    I haven't entered my food yet, so I will report on my sodium later

    Today was the kiddies first day of school. Hubby invited me to IHOP after we dropped them off. As we were eating, he says let's go for a walk after to burn this off. Sounds good right? We invited Josie (luvcuppycakes) to show us where she goes...she hauled our butts onto a trail where it goes straight UP for a mile!! Then a different way down which was another 1.5 miles! Sheesh! My butt BETTER look better after that! :bigsmile:

    Wednesday check in: Did 30 minutes of jogging in place & up & down stairs and was under in sodium

    Thursday check in: Workout done & was under in sodium

    Jax: I hope the kids' first day of school went well & that you got your "homework" done for the school stuff!
  • Thursday check in:
    under sodium

    Didn't manage to do the exercises. I was about to start when my friend popped round and by the time she'd left it was quite late so I just went to bed. Will tack some of them on to today's exercises.

    Friday's workout is done and I am way under sodium. That was a very challenging workout for me. I feel proud of myself when I complete something like that. I doubt very seriously if I could have10 years ago.
