checking in for sat......
exercise and water done for both friday and saturday......I can feel it my body is sore....OUCH0 -
Sorry I didn't get a chance to log in yesterday. I had both of my grandchildren and it was an insane, though wonderful, day. I missed the Saturday's water challenge, only got 80 oz. At midnight I realized that I was 20 oz short and I didn't want to drink that late because it would have kept me in and out of the bathroom half the night. Got the ab workout done early. It was a doozie! Each set I would think "I can't do 6 sets of these", then I would think "just do one more set". I managed to get it all and I can sure tell it this morning.
Not a good report on my weight. I was 166.6 this morning, an increase of 2.2 lbs. I got stung by a bee last Sunday and had a bad reaction. I have been on Prednisone since Wednesday. I was warned that it would possibly cause a temporary water weight gain and I guess it has, cos I have been faithfully plodding along all week. Of course, it could just be one of those female up/down things, but I have been at 166.6 for 2 days straight, so I doubt it. If it is the Prednisone, I have 8 days left of it, so this could be interesting.
Rhiannon, I have a heart rate monitor to help me log the challenges. Until I got it, I was using low impact aerobic, but, depending on what we do, that can be way off. If you decide to invest in an HRM, be sure and get one with a chest strap. The watch only type is not very accurate at all. I got a Polar ft7 and love it. It tracks my heart rate and calorie burn.
Hope everyone has/had a wonderful weekend!0 -

Hello everyone!
I have been in San Diego since Friday. I forgot my wifi thingy so I haven't been able to check in here. My phone only lets me log food and exercise. :sad:
I will give a full accounting tomorrow! But let me tell you I walked my butt off ALL over downtown San Diego!!
I'm so glad to see you all checking in. For the exercises, you have two ways to log them. You can log them individually under strength, but it wont log calories. The other way is to log in the cardio section under circuit training, general.
Hope that helps!!0 -
Hi there! I've been in San Diego having a girls weekend with my BFF's (Jackie & Rina) So, I'm just now checking in!
Friday check in- Walked hours around downtown San Diego, but did not get the Friday exercises done or the water challenge.
Saturday check in- Walked hours around the swap meet & the bay and again did not get the Saturday exercises done or the water challenge.
Sunday Weigh in- same weight....no gain/no loss!0 -
Hi. Well done to all of you who've done really well in the challenges.
I only did part of the Saturday challenge. I can't really do the plank at the moment because of a shoulder injury - I find it puts too much pressure on it so I left that. Did the others though. Water challenge done.
Sunday weigh in 205 = 2lb lost. Very happy with that as I was away this weekend and we ate out Saturday/Sunday

Hello everyone!!
I'm back, and reporting in for my missed days, and today!! :bigsmile:
Friday - exercises not done. I was traveling, and my GF picked me up from the airport and we did a 4 mile walk. Then when we met up with Jennifer, we walked for 3 hours around downtown!! Water challenge met!
Saturday - exercises not done, but walked around for another 3-4 hours downtown and at the swap meet! Water challenge met.
Sunday - I did not have access to a scale, so I reported no change in my weight.
Monday - exercises done. I like that video - short n sweet!
F/V = 3, tomatoes - 1, squash mix - 2 I was not prepared for the challenge since I was gone, but now I have lots of choices for the rest of the week!
Have a wonderful week!0 -

Hi,
Monday Check in:
I was out all yesterday so I didn't manage to do the exercises.
F/V = Mango juice, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, carrot sticks and grapes = 50 -
I got Monday's arm workout and today's leg workout done by 6am. I have the arm video saved to my favorites. It is a worth repeating.
I will check in tonight with my fruits and veggies.
Hope everyone has a great Tuesday.0 -
Hello! Sorry I was missing, I had to do some major driving for custody exchange with my kids. Any excuse will do. My life has just been busy!!! I thought summer would calm things down, but nope! So, today, back on the horse with healthy eating, except I know I am going to have an ice cream cone tonight. We are going to Ludington State park today for the whole day and I packed all the right stuff. I likely won't do the set exercises today, but we will be hiking and swimming a good part of the day. when I can get my butt outside I do enjoy it so much! Do really well with the water consumption, but I picked up drinking water when I was nursing and soooo thirsty all the time!0
