Skinny Saturday Challenge (9)

FabulousFifty

ARE YOU READY???!!!! :happy:
I feel a Skinny Saturday Challenge coming on! If you have trouble getting through the weekend, hop onboard and join the SSC! Here is what it entails:
Think double, double, double...
Double the exercise
Double the water intake (within healthy limits)
Double the willpower to STOP eating after dinner and log every bite that passes your lips :happy:

All you have to do is commit now and then report in tomorrow on how it is going and to encourage others. Remember to stay within your calorie limits and log every bite. This is just what we need to meet Mr. Scale with a smile on our face! :bigsmile:

I am totally IN! Grab a friend and commit to another Skinny Saturday! There is power in numbers!:flowerforyou:

See ya here Sat.!

O.k Fab50, I'm in for this one! I need help!

I'm so afraid that the bit that I've dropped will creep back onto me if I don't.....the weekends are so tough!:explode:

The hubs just walked thru the door with Barq's & Lay's :devil: at least, he forgot the ice cream...this time!

Please push!!! I'm back pedaling...I can just feel it.:sad:

I'm here :bigsmile:

I've already worked out 5 days this week... so I will probably take the day off. If the rains lets up a bit I will go for a walk but I will definitely keep an eye on calories and water intake today!!!

Good luck! :flowerforyou: :glasses:

Choc addicts tip. If you live in UK, try to buy entire box of mini, wrapped ultra dark choc bites. 2.5 grams each. Only 27 calories, and the perfect hit of intense chocolate. I once had a seriously thin friend who would unwrap these massive bars of chocolate and urge everyone to eat them, like "Yummy! Yummy let's all pig out..." she would have a nibble and I would eat half a pound of chocolate! No wonder why she had a washboard stomache 3 weeks after giving birth...Good Lucky

Sebastiansmommy

Ok, just finished a 5 mile jog and did 10 minutes of jumping rope. Plan on doing my crunches/leglifts later and more jump roping. Check back in later.

I worked for 8 hours at a church garage sale, and only sat down for less than 10 minutes for lunch. Now I am baking for tomorrow's bake sale. Need to drink more water though. Better go have a sip!

goldk

Well... I got a walk in - 4 miles and drinking a little more water than usual. I am under on my calories and I am still full from dinner. I think I'm going to make it... :bigsmile:

Hey, that is a good excuse to visit the UK!!! I be there in a jiff! We buy dove dark promises. They are just a tad of dark chocolate to polish off the evening with. Ghiradelli squares do the trick as well. Thanks for the tip!

Had a pretty GREAT Skinny Saturday! :bigsmile: Really, I think the best ever. I had a great morning workout. Pulled out an old VHS tape a few weeks ago. Did Tai Bo for 30 minutes. Then shopping and out to eat a healthy salad for lunch. (With sweet nephew. ) :smooched: Then home for a walk outside on this beautiful day. Just finished up the day with baked, skinless chicken breast and broccoli. Was so far under my cals I let myself have a cookie from the bakery for dessert. Yum! :happy: I have had lots of water and logged everything that crossed my lips. Hope this pays off. Even if Mr. Scale doesn't cooperate, I needed today to inspire me. I felt a funk coming on yesterday. :grumble: I am totally over that funk and ready to have a wonderful week.

By the way, I am TOTALLY inspired by your workouts. You are an amazing bunch of ladies! Wish we could all get together sometime! Hmmmm.....maybe it could happen when we all meet our goal weights! ?! Have a wonderful Sunday and let us know if Mr. Scale smiles at you on your weigh in day! (Check out the Skinny Wednesday Challenge coming soon!):flowerforyou:

Got in a short walk in before noon

& a round of Wii this evening...

Not nearly as good as I intended...the old lady bones kicked in....whenever a violent storm blows in, my hip and ankle give out! Restless night, woke up at 3 a.m. Got up after tossing around, logged on and made the best of it.

Sittin' with the heating pad & my laptop & another couple of tylenol...

Make-up tomorrow~Super Skinny Sunday! ha ha ha...

Done and done:bigsmile:


And thanks fabulous fifty for reminding me about my old Billy Blanks Tae bo tapes, gonna have to dig them out

RebelRenny

:bigsmile: Okay for my calories but did absolutely NOTHING on the exercise front. I was tired and the weather was too iffy for a bike ride. The stress of FIL critical condition did not help either. Rack this one up to experience and do better next time.

Made cinnamon rolls, Hawaiian rolls, Orange Cranberry Bran Muffins, granola bars, and spicy pretzels for the bake sale. Made all of my goals for the day. Thanks for a great skinny Saturday, and good night!

FabulousFifty

Hooah, hope you feel better. Two workouts and you are hurting?? You are my hero. Restless nights suck. I am a terrible sleeper so I can totally relate. Hang in there and feel better soon.:flowerforyou:

Renny, you have had an awesome week so a day of rest may be just what you needed. Just do it when you feel a skinny day coming on. All the best to your FIL. Hope he is healing. Sending up good thoughts.

Sebastian's mom, you rocked it out! Great job girlie! :bigsmile:

Mary, your will power is amazing. Your church knows who to call when they are having a bakesale! I am pretty sure I gained 5 lbs just reading your post! :laugh: Good job on meeting all of your goals today girl! :drinker:

Yeah GoldK and Mary! You both always work hard to stay committed and strong! :happy: You both get a workout in early in the day. We can learn some lessons from you!

skywalker

Well, I didn't get in a traditional workout, but I spent hours packing and moving boxes and furniture. Wish I wore my HRM to see my calories burned. I think, all things considered I can say I had a Skinny Saturday :happy:
