    Welcome back, Lady!

    I'll wait until tomorrow morning to post the total number of calories burned but I did reach part of my goals and did some new things this week:
    - I've tried a new type of group class: yoga
    - I've increased by 10% the number of kilometers jogged/walked
    - had a walk on my rest day and cross-trained on other days
    - almost finished the New Rules of Lifting for Women and I will most likely start incorporating what I've learned into my routine starting this weekend.

    Met my week 2 goal :) Took it a little bit easier this week, I'll try to hit 6000 cals on week 3. I'm mixing up different workouts (Insanity, TurboFire, Brazil Butt Lift, strength training, bicycling...) and I love it 'cause workout sessions are never boring.

This is a great start to summer! Haven't made the best choices food wise this week. Plan to make MUCH healthier choices next week!!!

    Good job everybody!! :)
    I managed to squeeze in a decent burn today after having taken 4 days off :love:

    Day 1: 720
    Day 2: 780
    Days 3-6 off
    Day 7: 1027

    Making my total for the week 2527, and my total for the month to 6957.

    Going to try to amp the burn next week, so I can surpass my goal. Good luck, guys! :laugh:

    Hey friends!!! Everyone is doing an AWESOME job! You guys are rock stars...keep it up!

    Ok so I did not make my goal for this week. But I don't feel bad about it. Sometimes life happens :(

    My goal was 2100 calories and I did 1905 so I'm short 105. I did 730 of those calories TODAY because I missed several days. So I'm gonna keep my goal at 2100 for week 3 and try to learn ways to not let life get in the way of my health (feel free to post tips).

    Tomorrow's a new day! Good night peeps!

    Way to go everybody!

    Week 1 results: 2,764/3,613
    Week 2 results: 4,919/3,613

    So I made up my week 1 shortfall and banked some buffer for week 3. It's May 24 long weekend coming up and DH and I will be opening the cottage. I know my beer intake will increase and my workouts will decrease. Hopefully I can work out extra hard on the days when I'm still in the ****ty to compensate for my time on the river. It's been a long, cold winter since we closed the cottage at Thanksgiving, and I CAN'T WAIT to get in the boat and pull out of the marina, leaving all my worries behind.

    Still chugging along here!

    Week 1 Goal 2000 Burned 2075
    Week 2 Goal 2000 Burned 2200

    This week is the super busy week I have been worrying about...I will do what I can but I have 4 12.5 hour shifts in a row at work which will leave me with almost no time to sleep, let alone burn calories!

    Great results everyone!

    As some of you are enjoying teh spring or the warmer weather, it's above 40 degrees Celsius where I live so training outdoor will not be an option for much longer :(

    I was able to reach my 3500 weekly goal (3610-yay) but I was aiming for 4000. I will set the same target for this week in order to push myself harder and harder.

    Well this week was horrible! I did over 5,000 in week 1 and set my goal to at least meet that but ultimately I would have loved to surpass it, nope.

    Week 2: 3231

    I didn't work out 2 days this week, unacceptable! This week I must step it up. I'm setting the goal for this week at 6,000 and I WILL hit it!! Good luck MFP friends!
