    I BLEW the challenge today, and sat on my butt ALLLLLLL DAY!

    I have noticed that I sabotage myself around this time.... RIGHT when I am about to get out of the 160's, I blow it. Does anybody else do this? I don't know why I do it!

    Argh, I know the feeling. I keep sabotaging myself with the sweets.
  • hi everyone, even though the weather is bad and my man has been around i haven't been able to workout on exercise tapes, so i've been going upstairs and work out. sometimes twice or three times in a day since can't really go anywhere,because of the weather. plus i don't go to a gym. i just workout on what things i have here. i did weight myself this morning. i'm so proud of myself. i am to my half way mark. i've lost 50lbs. so far and have 50lbs. to go.

    I know what you mean about sabotaging yourself right when you're about to hit a big goal. I've been within half a pound of getting under 200, and I keep doing stupid things and got back up to 203 (once) or somewhere around it. UGH! Why do we do this? I know damn well I could be under 200 by now. I've been right at it for a month now. Still haven't made it under. It's very aggrivating. I know I can lose weight too.. I mean I've lost 44 pounds! :explode:

    Sorry that turned into an all out rampage, but I do know what you're saying...

    On another note... today I wasn't going to work out. I've been doing a lot of strength lately, and my cardio yesterday was pretty much jumping for over an hour. I was tired.. but I remembered the challenge and thought I'd do at least 20 min light cardio on the elliptical. Well, I hopped right on and ended up working for an hour and burned 450 calories! I tried to work at at least 75% max HR on my HRM... so yay! Thanks for that challenge.. it helped out today.

    I'm also grateful for this challenge cuz yesterday i went home and just wanted to be lazy but i kicked my butt into gear and did 20 mins turbo jam then a lil zumba for a total of about 40mins. I dunno how much cals were burnt but its way more than if I had just sat on the couch!

    Way to go guys! I mean how good does it feel to actually see that your loosing weight?! I'm 9lbs down and just so happy about it, but soon I will be out of the 160's and into the 150's! I think I'll cry a little when that happens! :) lol
    I've been on here for a little over a month, and just using this site, and being in this group is all I needed!
    Thanks again guys! And thanks sjmay for creating it!

    I took my "before" shot, and cant wait for the "after"!

    Well, today I have done the challenge - 30 Day Shred for 27 minutes. I also went to the barn and went for a 20 minute horseback ride.. though I can say that it doesn't burn many calories because I have my horse trained to vocal cues. The only thing burning calories is putting the saddle on and pulling myself into the saddle from the ground. :tongue:

    I hope everyone is doing well today!

    great job!

    I failed at my challenge yesterday, I got up late and missed my morning workout then got home late after work and was starving so I went ahead and ate dinner (mediterranean take - out ) :grumble: and skipped my workout again. grrr!

    Thanks, everyone... I am excited as well!!

    Hailey, what I did differently this week, I RELIGIOUSLY did NOT eat after 6:00 PM... I really think that was the kicker!! I am also trying to give up coke, so I have drank less coke and more water... That was the main differences this past week.

    Congrats!! I may just have to try that. It sounds like it would be difficult.. I have a hard time not eating past 7:30, much less 6!! But if if that means I *could* lose 1.5 pounds a day, it's worth the compromise (especially with a large goal so close to getting met).:wink:

    My loss actually adds up to a little more than .5 lb a day... BUT a lot of that could have been water weight... I was retaining for awhile... I was stuck at 217 for WEEKS!!! And I was eating right and exercising!
    It is worth the try. I am going to stick with it since I have been successful so far...

    Ha.. I didn't even noticed I put 1.5..:tongue: either way if it was water weight or not I know it's really motivational to see the scale move downward!

    Hey Everyone!

    I've kinda been MIA all week. Sounds like it is a great challenge! However, I have failed it all week because I have been sick since Sunday night. Today I am finally feeling better. I have to decorate the work Christmas tree and my own at home today, so hopefully this will give me a little exercise:laugh:

    I am hoping to get back into the swing of things tomorrow.

    Hope everyone's having a great day :drinker:
