    Yesterday I didn't work out. I wanted to but my darling husband was watching Monday night football, the basketball game and wrestling. So he declared Monday nights no exercise. My goal for next Monday is to exercise in the morning so I will have already done 30ds if he decides to have another big tv night.

    I stepped on to the scale. It is heading in the right direction, but I think a lot of it was water weight so I will check again and see what happens before I post.

    I hope that it's not too late to join! I NEED something to help motivate me back into the swing of things.

    MY NOVEMBER GOALS:
    (1)- lose 5 lbs (to get the ball rolling again)

    (2)- exercise minimum of 4 days/wk (including push-ups at least 3x/wk)
    *stay off the treadmill! I have always had dreams of being a runner - but have a very, very bad knee that just cannot handle the
    running at this heavy weight (interval-ran last Friday for 20 mins and could hardly walk all weekend)

    (3)- NO MORE NIGHT TIME EATING!!!! This is my absolute #1 downfall! It goes hand-in-hand with lack of sleep (average 3-4
    hrs/night). For this month, my starting goal is to not eat after 10 p.m. (as late as that is, it will be a MAJOR accomplishment!)

    I am doing the 30 day shred. It is going great. I am definitely losing weight. I can fee my endurance increasing. Tonight I had the realization that I need to go to level 2. I hate those jumping planks and I don't know how to modify them. My main thing is to keep moving. But I want to master that stupid plank. Tomorrow I have to start leve 2. I breezed through level 1 today.

    Welcome on board to all the new sisters !

    I am seeing amazing goals and I know we are sucessful :)

    How is your first day going ? I re-started the 30shred this morning although Jilian tends to get on my nerves, but I was just inspired by all of you who are doing it this month. I am off very soon to my yoga class, which is perfect because my worst cravings come usually between 4 and 6pm.

    I LOVE Yoga! thanks for starting this challenge.

    Hello ladies!!! Just checking in since I haven't done so since the challenge started. Well, I'm 8 days into this challenge and I haven't lost anything yet. But, I'm not discouraged because I haven't gained any weight either so that is a win for me!! I've been focused on lifting and I'm seeing the difference in my level of strength. I'm even doing pretty good with my water intake.

    It's been 2 days and so far... I have managed fine with the exercise part of things. As for the no eating after 10 pm? Failed miserably last night. So far, tonight is a - dear I say - win... Will be starting the push-ups part of my Nov goal this weekend.

    Hang in there everybody!

    Nember goals

    1. Lose 4lbs
    2. Complete the 30 day abs challenge that I joined and complete at least 30 minutes of exercise 4-5 days a week.
    3. Drink a minimum of 8 cups of water daily and control my late night snacking.

    Sorry I haven't posted lately. My bff had surgery last Wednesday and I'm dealing with a kidney stone. But I'm still in for November despite not being able to work out as much as I wanted to. I am on day 13 of the crunch/ plank ab challenge and I'm drinking the water but I definitely could do better. Here's my stats:

    Nov 2: 216
    Nov 6: 215.4
    Nov 13: 214.2

    Still hope to reach my 4lb goal. Good luck every one

    Things are finally moving!!!

    On 11/14/12 I weighed in at 142.4. This morning it was 141.8, but I'll wait until my offical weigh in day next week to see what it's looking like. I'm doing great with water during the week because I have a definite routine in place. The weekend is where the water intake is less than stellar.

    Current stats for November Challenge:

    I am still here. This week wasn't a good one, but I am still getting back in the game. I hope to be much more active.
