    YEY! FInally all the hard work has great results. I've been so good this last couple of weeks, but last week with TOM there was not much change. So now everything I've been doing has started to show. I also did cut out just for a few weeks till my part all carbs (bad), alcohol and sugar.

    (Original Goal 230, Revised Goal 250)

    My goal is to get more exercise this week. I will be going to a podiatrist soon, so hopefully we can figure out what to do about my foot so I can get back to more intense workouts.

    September 6: Goal- maintain weight btwn 120-125 lbs


    Hello everyone! I'm still maintaining my weight but really need to get focused w/reducing my body fat %. I'll be in Boston during next week's weigh in and won't have a scale so I know I'll miss it which is why I already plugged it in.

    Good afternoon everyone! I hope this post finds everyone in good health and spirits. I procrastinated, procrastinated, procrastinated about getting this workout in today. I have to admit I really didn't feel like working out today, so, I convinced myself to only do 30 minutes of the P90X leg and Back routine AND THANKFULLY once I got going I found a second wind and was able to rock out the ENTIRE routine. I hope this is not going to happen all week. I leave for Boston Thursday morning so my plan is to continue w/the P90X workouts until then. Once I get to Boston I'll have to play everything by ear.

    September 6: (Goal 165, 25 lbs)

    well, i'm not sure, but as much as my rate of loss has slowed i may not make 165 by labor day. (especially since between now and then we are moving half way across the country, and that will probably reek havoc with my eating and exercising habits) still i won't change the goal yet. let's see how the next couple of weeks go.

    What's wrong with your foot? I have been having pain in the ball of my foot for the past month. I am hoping this week off from running on vacation will do the trick with rest but if still there might have to visit the doctor soon too.

    Good morning everyone and Happy Tuesday! In two days I'll be among family and friends in Boston and I can't wait. It's been almost a year since I've been home so I'm super excited. I decided to switch up today's workout. Instead of completing the Plyometrics dvd from the P90X program I did Billy Blanks (Taebo instructor) Cardio Bootcamp and it was great. This workout "takes some of the most active moves from his cardio kickboxing routine and combines them with hard hitting interval training". Resistance bands are used for the majority of the workout and they really ramp up the routine and make you feel the burn. Since I had only done this routine one time everything was brand new and really fun. I may even take the dvd w/me to Boston so I complete it one more time while there (undecided as of now).

    My foot had been hurting for several months, and I just ignored it. I also have a small knot on the top of my foot. I finally went to the doctor a month ago, and she said I cracked a small bone in the top of my foot, probably a stress fracture from exercising. She didn't do much except tell me no exercising and keep my foot elavated as much as possible. After 2 weeks, I called back to let her know it's still hurting. This time she said she looked at my x-rays again and there was no fracture, so all I know is it hurts really bad all over and I am ready to be able to exercise again! I have an appointment with a podiatrist next week.

    Good morning and happy hump day! I can't believe I'm on week 11 of the P90X program. There were definitely days when I didn't think I was going to make it but the light is definitely at the end of the tunnel now. Unfortunately, as of tomorrow I'll be out of town and unable to continue with the P90X dvds but will find a way to get some type of exercise in. Today I completed the back and bicep dvd and was really able to rock it out.

    Thanks for the list, Katie! Thankfully I think I've had only a McD's shake, but its been a long time & I think it was before the triple think ones came out! Still....I know I'll never have one again!

    I had a craving today for a McD's Iced Coffee, but I had no idea what the calories were on it, so I decided to go fill my gas tank up instead! :laugh: I am going to check McD's website now though just to see if I can ever fit it in my day!

    Thanks again!

    Good evening everyone. Im posting late b/c as you all know I am in my hometown of Boston visiting friends and family. I arrived at 10 am this morning and have yet to stop running. I was able to visit w/my grandmother, hang out w/a very good friend, have lunch w/high school friends, workout w/another high school friend, have dinner w/other friends and then spend time w/my cousin and her children.

    Despite how crazy my day has been I was still able to get in some good workouts. First, I started the morning with 1.5 miles of the Leslie Sansone workout (holding 3 lb weights), then instead of taking the train to my concourse I walked which was another mile and then I met a high school friend for a turbo kickboxing class at her local gym this evening. So, I really burned some calories.

    Well this week was rough for me, TOM started Monday and I've never had cramps like these. I did great on fruits and veggies instead of other sweets and salts, but I didn't do too much for exercise the last day or so. I'm going to weigh in again on Monday after TOM is long gone just to see, but won't record anything officially til next Friday. I finished Week7 of C25k and Week 8 starts Mon depending on heat/rain. I'm headed to the Lake of the Ozarks with my hubbys and his guy friends this weekend, fun fun :D Dpwnfall is that my exercise will only include grocery shopping later today and maybe fishing (but I dont think I burn that much fishing) otherwise we'll be on the boat pretty much all of today and tomorrow. I know for sure we will have fast food tonight and Sunday and headed to a sit down restaurant Sat for a friends bday, but I plan on doing the grocery shopping ;) Gonna have carrots, broccoli, apples, grapes, etc to get me through the weekend :) AND TONS OF WATER !! ANyway, hope you all have a great weekend, here's my stats:

    May 3: 240
    May 11: 237.6
