bump
.? What does that mean?
a bump means "I don't have anything to say right now, but I want to be able to find it later" Kinda' like I'm doing right now:laugh:
Yes :happy: I didn't have time to respond at the moment, but I wanted to be able to easily get back to the topic.0 -
TUESDAY: Met the water and fruit/veggies goal. I CAN'T do pushups...need to get stronger to do those. But, I did do TAEBO yesterday for the first time in a year (can't believe it's been a year since I found out I was pregnant. That exercise gave me quite a workout :laugh:
WEDNESDAY: Should be able to meet the water challenge. Not sure about the food challenge-I'm assuming rice and pasta are considered "bread" and I brought a Smart Ones Fettucine Alfredo for lunch (might get a salad instead though).0 -
Wednesday Mini Challenge
Food: no bread today
Strength: 100 squats
Complete! XD0 -
Wed: Did the 100 squats 10 reps of 10 sets through out the day. Didn't have bread in particular but did have some pasta (which I am sure is counted in the bread family for the challenge so didn't do that) Water is in!
About to go for a 30min walk. SO just a quick check in. Hope everyone is having a good night!0 -
Wednesday:
100 squats-check
No bread-check (although, I did have oatmeal and pasta-but I did avoid bread, bagels, and english muffins...I'm hoping that counts for something!)
8 glasses of water-only got 6 in today, I need to start drinking more water earlier in the morning to get it all in by the end of the day0 -

Wednesday- Did my 100 squats, didn't have any bread. I was planning on having some stuffed artichoke I made, but it has bread crumbs in it, so I didn't. I will have it tomorrow. Working on my water intake. Did some 50 crunches as well. Overall a great day, and with my exercise I have over 900 calories left and am completely satisfied.0

You could always do it at home holding a bag of sugar or something equivalent in weight. That's what I'm going to do 0 -
Wednesday: Got my water in and my squats done. Ended up having a sandwich for dinner... it was literally the healthiest choice I had at home, I need to go shopping. Those 2 slices of whole grain bread were all I had for the day and my carb count was definitely lower than usual.
Thursday: Let's see what I can find to do the tricep kickbacks... hm.0 -

Thursday:
no added salt-check
10 sets of tricep kickbacks-check...although I did them in 5 sets of 20, same amount, right?
water-just starting my 7th glass, trying to finish this one and one more before I go to bed!
I love these challenges, they have helped remind me of my long term goal all week...I resisted some cake that someone brought to work today because I was thinking about squeezing my exercises and water in instead!0 -
Thursday- did tricep kickbacks and no extra salt intake. Drank 6 cups of water, can't seem to make it to that magic number 8...oh well I'll try again tomorrow..0
-
Squats done for yesterday and tricep kickbacks done for today, Good on the water intake but the food challenges are another matter.....I have no discipline!
Great job everyone!!!!0 -
Friday! It is finally the weekend. YAY. Water is in, food within cals (not a problem). DId lunges well 10 forward one and my knees where killing me. SO I modified it to aerobic side lunges. Hey I did the best I could, but just going to have to build up strength here.
Happy Weekend to everyone, getting on late to post b/c for once it was a beautiful day!0
