EDIT....starts Monday the 11th... Had my dates messed up!!!

Happy Sunday all.
I apologize for being AWOL last week. Life, as it happens, got me temporarily sidetracked...work, anniversary and boyfriend's birthday. I don't want to derail our progress or keep us from missing out on fun, thus explaining the reason behind the title of this week's challenge. It could easily read, ' Surf - get off your *kitten*' challenge, :embarassed: but we all have times where we could 'insert name here'! :tongue:


I know some of us have been experiencing the winter blues. Spring is coming, but we have some weather yet to navigate first. Here is a nice short article for you to read on dealing with winter blahs, in case this whole cold weather, lack of daylight business is getting you or someone you know down!

http://psychcentral.com/blog/archives/2012/12/03/5-ways-to-beat-the-winter-blahs/



This week's challenge is:

:smile: Cardio: minimum of 30 minutes / 5 days a week
Tip: Break it up over the day if you need to, take a quick lunchtime walk, do some dancing while fixing dinner or packing lunches, walk in place while watching your favorite tv show, lots of possibilities!

:bigsmile: Butt Work... Glute squeezes. 250 for the week. That equates to 50 X 5 days. These can be done very inconspicuously while driving, standing, setting at work, while reading a book, or even posting on MFP. (I am doing them now, and you didn't even notice!) :laugh: :blushing: Hold some of them and feel the burn.


:drinker: H20 8X8 daily
Tip: add some fresh slices of lemon, lime, or orange slices to your water, making it feel like SUMMER!

:heart: Calories/Nutrition...strive to stay within your net calories and macros daily. Banking is quite acceptable.

:flowerforyou: Daily Sharing and check in... We do better if we report daily, so please stop by and tell us how it went.
Motivation....What have you done this week to get 'off your butt' and do something good for yourself? What did it take to make that happen?

:blushing: Twilight Fun....give us a passage from one of the movies or the books that makes you feel upbeat or 'summery'!

:love: One last thing....when you report in, make a recommendation of one exercise ( say 5 or 10 reps of one thing) that the entire team should do the following day. Lets make it something done indoors so that we can all participate.

Lets get our Butts' in gear ladies!!!
I am writing the weekly goals on a big piece of paper that I see daily so I can stay on track!!!

XXXOOO.

    I'm in. Although I live in So Cal where winter is a minor inconvenience (goodness we actually have had frost recently), I go back to work this week and will be struggling to get my workouts in.

    But I'll certainly be sitting on my backside enough to get the glute squeezes in.

    How right you are, that title could have my name in it for sure. So I'm in for this challenge.

    I sit on my backside way too much of the day, being at home a lot and searching online for work. Depressing!

    Thanks for goals to brighten (and tighten) things up!

    hey, all! one workout down, and it felt damn good. i don't know why i do this to myself - just drop all of my good habits on a whim, because then it's so hard to get them back, even when they feel so good! bleh. but one day at a time, right? i just went for a short jog for the first time in *ages*. it wasn't great, but better then i expected. i made it just over half a mile before i had to rest. i could have walked a bit and kept going, but since i'm just re-starting, i decided to call that good for day one. i think when i'm back up to a full mile with no rest, then i'll start training for distance again. i'm hoping that i will be 5k ready by the time spring rolls around, but that might be a tall order. we'll just have to wait and see. i can't believe that i let myself drop from jogging 4 miles solid to not being able to jog even 1!!! but if i did it once i can do it again.

    i don't know about the glute squeezes - i just did some squats with a 45 pound bar and deadlifts with 65 pounds, so my cheeks are feeling pretty used up about now - but they were definitely some glute-focused moves, so i don't feel like i'm cheating too bad. and i'm working on glass 3 of my water for the day.

    for my twilight quote, i know the one i want, but i'm too lazy to get the book right now. but i love the scene in the first book where bella falls asleep on the blanket outside because it's actually warm for a change!

    happy monday, everyone!

    Happy Monday everyone!

    Staci, so great to hear you got your jog in. You are right, one day at a time! Beforey you know if you will be able to run 4 miles solid again!

    :drinker: I made a pact with my cube mate that we would go walk 10 minutes at lunch. Well today was our first and we walked 30 minutes! wooohooo that was terrific feeling. Nice to get that walk in during the daylight! I feel very refreshed to tackle the 4 hours left to work!

    HERE IS A CHALLENGE MOVE FOR TOMORROW.--- DO THE LION. This is a yoga move that is great for tense jaw muscles. I'm including a link to the pose, don't be afraid its not some contortionist type move, its actually very funny to do! So you may not want anyone to see you!

    omigosh, the model for that is sort of freaking me out! but i'm going to give it a go (in private) anyways, because how cool would it be to actually ease some of my jaw tension?! i didn't know there was such a thing, so thanks!

    and well done to you and your coworker - way to make it happen!

    Day 1 -- Monday
    :smile: Cardio: minimum of 30 minutes / 5 days a week -- 1 day of my usual workout.

    :bigsmile: Butt Work... Glute squeezes. 250 for the week. Forgot these, but I'll do them while watching Biggest Loser.


    :drinker: H20 8x8 -- got it DONE!

    :heart: Calories/Nutrition --stayed under today.

    :flowerforyou: Daily Sharing and check in... here I am!

    :blushing: Twilight Fun....Happy 21st birthday Taylor! This quote is for you :
    He’s being pretty dang pleasant about this; you don’t need to push your luck.

    Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 10, p.238

    Jake immediately takes advantage of the situation -- Bella is joining the werewolf soiree -- by giving Bella a big bear hug because he is glad to see her but also to purposely thumb his nose at Edward. Of course, Edward started it by kissing Bella pretty passionately (until she is gasping for breath) as he says goodbye. They did this little exchange pretty well in the movie. Each guy is "marking his territory" and telling the other, "She is mine," and pretty much saying he won't fight fair like Edward says after Bella punches Jake a little later in the story. Bella knows what is going on, and reminds Jake that she is there with Edward's okay, and it is foolish of Jake to mock his cooperation. She says, "Don't push your luck," but Jake responds with a laugh, "You can't push what you don't have," admitting that he knows he is

    recommendation -- When you can't get around to doing an ab workout, try standing crunches.

    [/quote]

    Cardio: 35 minute walk

    Butt Work... 50/250

    H20 11 glasses

    Calories/Nutrition...I'm below in calories, but over in fat, sodium & sugar, (not good) & over in Vitamins A, C, Calcium & Iron (multivitamin)

    Daily Sharing and check in... Here :)

    Motivation.... Starting back on my fitorbit plan tomorrow, I want to make the most of the money I spent & reach my goal before my birthday. Seeing progress on the scale this morning, despite several days of 'not caring' about what I ate, justifying it to myself because of not eating much for 3 days because of the flu.

    Twilight Fun.... Seeing 'the pretty' (Rob) with the babies in one of the leaked 'behind the scenes' clips from BD2 made me melt ;)

    One last thing....well, I'm assigned to do legs & abs tomorrow, so I'll say lunges. I'm to do 3 sets of 15 reps, but even one set would help with leg strength

    Day 1 -- Monday

    Cardio: 36/150 - Got off my butt while watching The Biggest Loser on the DVR.

    Butt Work... Glute squeezes. 100/250 - Some at my desk and a lot in the car during slow traffic in the rain.

    Drinker H20 8x8: Done plus 1!

    Calories/Nutrition: Under with a good healthy day. 1st time in a while no binging!

    Daily Sharing and check in: Check!

    Twilight Fun: Twilight, Chapter 13 - Edward has taken Bella to "the meadow" for the first time. The description of the flowers, the sun, the very air makes me feel like spring is on it's way. And how can we possibly resist Edward in the sun?

    "Edward in the sunlight was shocking. I couldn’t get used to it, though I’d been staring at him all afternoon. His skin, white despite the faint flush from yesterday’s hunting trip, literally sparkled, like thousands of tiny diamonds were embedded in the surface."

    And Edward singing to himself:
    "Now and then, his lips would move, so fast it looked like they were trembling. But, when I asked, he told me he was singing to himself; it was too low for me to hear."


    Exercise Suggestion: While watching television, walk in place and add knee lifts and step ups to get your heart rate up.

    Day 1 - Monday

    Cardio 30 minutes, morning circuit, check!

    Butt work 50, half during stretch and half in the shower!

    Water 8*8, check!

    Calories under, just barely, but it's a start!

    To get off my back side this afternoon while working on taxes, I took my dog out for a frisbee break! Not much of a workout for me but it was sunny and got me out of the house and kitchen when I otherwise would have snacked.

    The Twilight summery feeling I enjoyed was at the graduation party in Eclipse when Jake and his pals show up, warming things up between him and Bella by apologizing (for the kiss and her breaking her hand). Then he gives Bella the wolf charm he made. Then he hears of Victoria's army and says, essentially, "Bring it on. This is what we're here for. It's what we do." Warmth in everything he does!:love:

    Recommendation: Rump raises: try the glute squeezes while lying on back with knees bent. Raise just your rump while squeezing cheeks, then lower. Repeat! (Keep head, shoulders on floor throughout.)

    Check in:


    :smile: Cardio: lunch time walk on Monday and Tuesday. 60/150 minutes


    :bigsmile: Butt Work... Glute squeezes. 100/250 Did a big portion of them in the car!!!

    :drinker: H20 8X8 daily. 5/8 Monday, working on my 8 for Tuesday
    I sliced a fresh lime and put it in the fridg at work so my water would taste better.

    :heart: Calories/Nutrition...stayed under both days.

    :flowerforyou: Daily Sharing and check in.Motivation....What have you done this week to get 'off your butt' and do something good for yourself? What did it take to make that happen?

    Having the walking partner at work is really nice. Today it was gray out, so we walked in the tunnels under the mfg plant. We didn't encounter any big cockroaches or rats, so I think it's pretty safe to walk there. We encountered other walkers in the tunnels.

    :blushing: Twilight Fun....give us a passage from one of the movies or the books that makes you feel upbeat or 'summery'!

    I liked the part in BD2 where the sun shines and Bella notices it for what may be the very first time, and walks into the direct sunlight peeking thru the trees, and she sparkles. There is summer!!!!

    :love: One last thing....when you report in, make a recommendation of one exercise ( say 5 or 10 reps of one thing) that the entire team should do the following day. Lets make it something done indoors so that we can all participate.

    I recommended the lion yesterday ( Mountain Lion, yes, Kathy, lets go with that) , and it felt so good that I am recommending that move for the whole week. Amazing how it stretches out those tired and tense necks and jaws!

    Looks like everyone is having a successful week. WTG ladies!!!
    I have some exercises that you recommended that I need to go do, like lunges and, knee lifts and standing crunches!

    Drinker H20 8x8: Done plus 1 for the 2nd day in a row.

    Calories/Nutrition: Over today because of no workout, but in the green 160 for the week.

    Day 2 -- Tuesday
    Cardio: minimum of 30 minutes / 5 days a week -- Started the morning with a brik walk (even jogged a tiny bit) then walked 15 minutes during my lunch for a total today of 56 min. So 2/5 days down.

    Butt Work... Glute squeezes. 100/250 did them today at work.

    H20 8x8 -- 2/7 days

    Calories/Nutrition --stayed under again even though it was a long day.

    Daily Sharing and check in... here I am!

    Twilight Fun....

    Isabella Swan? I promise to love you forever — every single day of forever. Will you marry me?

    Edward Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 20, p.460

    I'm feeling warmer already!


    recommendation -- Getting in exercise first thing in the morning seems to energize me (at least it did today, I'll let you know how I feel by the end of the week). Suggested exercise -- One of my favorites Monkey arms, for nice looking arms. Do 20, but split them up, you can do them with weights or without. here's the link : http://www.fitnessmagazine.com/workout/arms/express/strong-arm-exercises/?page=2

    Sorry Yvonne, I could not find a suitable place to roar today.

    Super News Flash -- My daughter just won the chance to attend a Q & A with Stephenie Meyer and the cast of
    The Host:love::love: :love:
  • w8sarge
    w8sarge Posts: 4,118 Member
    Kathy, that is so cool!!!

    Day 2 -- Tuesday Check-in

    Cardio-- 35 min walk around the neighborhood

    Butt work-- 100/250 half in shower, half as I log

    Water 8*8--check!

    Calories under-- twice in a row, woo hoo!

    What I did and What It Took--I had to walk the short block with both dogs, since my old one is slow. But after 10 minutes of that I left him at home and started out again with the young one and we went for 25 more minutes. I was glad I did that.

    Twilight fun, summery feeling-- since Twi mentioned baseball, here's a great line from Jacob (again): "Next time you hit me, use a baseball bat or crowbar, OK?" (Eclipse)

    Recommendation-- uh, I wasn't so good there, didn't do my extra exercises though the ideas here are great. A simple idea of mine is to do jumping jacks like we used to do "Mississippi" in grade school but spell out the names of Stephenie Meyer's books instead.
  • surfrgrl1
    surfrgrl1 Posts: 1,464 Member
    Oh Kathy, that is soooo cool about your daughter, you will HAVE to keep us posted!

    Suzy....love the idea of spelling out the names of Stephanie Meyer's books while doing jumping jacks. I bet I have to spell them silently, I will be out of breath!

    Twilight
    New moon
    Eclipse
    Short life of Bree Tanner
    Breaking Dawn
    The Host
    Midnight Sun
    Prom Nights from Hell. (Maybe just spell part of it since she was a co-writer!)

    Whew, I am already tired!

    happy hump day, everyone!

    i didn't post yesterday, but it was a successful kind of day, so yay!

    as for day three, it's also been so far so good, aside from the fact that i am completely neglecting my glute squeezes. but i'm doing so many squats and lunges i still don't feel too bad about it.

    went for jog number 2 today and increased my distance from six-tenths to eight-tenths of a mile. i feel pretty confident that next time around i will hit the mile mark mark if not more, so i'm pretty relieved it seems to be coming back so quickly. of course, i am s-l-o-w as molasses, but i've never been fast anyways.

    i hit my water goal on monday and was off by one serving yesterday. i'll be sure to down it all today, and hopefully more. i'd like to get back to drinking at least 10 servings per day. when i was drinking 12 servings per day it broke a 4 month long plateau, so eventually i would like to get back to that mark. but not today. eight sounds like enough for now!

    my tip of the day - curtsy lunges:
    (basically a lunge in which you cross your leg behind you instead of putting it straight back - but she explains it really well)
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrid5nvZ7mM

    and who i would turn into vampires because their incredible physiques should be preserved for posterity:
    (these trainers are also giving some really good bum moves)
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=endscreen&v=Kq1HnakX5C8&NR=1

    alright everyone - watch out for vampires - it's a twilighty kind of day in my neck of the woods, overcast and misty! yay!

    Don't ya hate it when you type a lot of stuff, and go to another site to look something up, and when you come back its ALL gone?

    :smooched: Okay, a summery feeling from the movie is when Bella wonders why the Cullens appear to have skipped school, and she is told by the sun soaking Jessica that when its sunny Dr. Cullen takes them all camping.

    I tried the monkey arms, without weights, wow, talk about joints popping! I obviously need more upper body workouts!
    60 glute squeezes in the car, my my what the passing motorists must think I am up to! Teehee

    50 minute walk today after work plus 40 minutes on the recumbent bike. Sunny milder weather is certainly a motivator to me. the snow missed us yesterday!!! Tomorrow I will walk at work, we have to go to another building across campus and that will make for a nice workout.

    Kept under my calories, but yesterday I had to cave and had a bowl of cereal before bed, I can't sleep when I am hungry.
    Working to get water consumption up again. If I don't fill my cup at work when I get there, it really puts me behind. Note to self, Don't forget to fill your water cup!

    Special note...new big screen tv will be delivered on Saturday. No I am not going to watch a Mariners game with Charlie, but I do think I will pop in a Twilight DVD!!! I can hardly wait!

    Day 3--Wednesday

    Good going, Yvonne! You included Short Life of Bree Tanner along with all the others for jumping jacks, which I forgot!

    I had a half and half day. Morning I was busy and productive, and my cardio burn was higher on the circuit. After some errands, I got home and all I wanted to do was eat the easiest stuff and sit on my backside! Glad the glute-squeezes are "exercise."

    Cardio-- 30 minutes, plus a couple more for a set of jumping jacks
    Butt work -- 150/250
    Water 8*8-- yup
    Cals under--Nope! Stole a bit from my bank account.

    Got up and going, jumping jacks out in the backyard (really nice day), kept vigorous on the workout at Curves, and got to see improvement on the scale there after climbing higher last month.

    My summery feeling is actually after James attacks Bella in the ballet studio. Although she is in terrible shape and recovering in the hospital, she still fights with Edward to make him stay. They then have a great summer together, which you read about in New Moon (after she wakens from her dream about Gran): "All through the perfect summer--the happiest summer I had ever had, the happiest summer anyone anywhere had ever had, and the rainiest summer in the history of the Olympic Peninsula..." Who needs sunshine with a summer like that?!

    So my recommendation for today is a move little ballerinas and big practice all the time, the plie. We don't need to be self-conscious if we're not graceful, cuz Bella sucked too!

    Both first and second positions of plie are shown here (second recommended for those of us with knee problems): http://www.sheknows.com/health-and-wellness/articles/946461/thinner-thighs-6-moves-to-leaner-legs

    Day 3 -- Wednesday
    Cardio: minimum of 30 minutes / 5 days a week -- Started the morning with another brisk walk (jogged a teeny-tiny bit more) for a total of 62 min. today for a total of 163 minutes. So 3/5 days down.

    Butt Work... Glute squeezes. 150/250 did them while watching TV tonight.

    H20 8x8 -- 3/7 days Had no trouble drinking 11 cups since I start drinking first thing in the morning

    Calories/Nutrition --stayed under again -- that's 3 days in a row.

    Daily Sharing and check in... present!

    Twilight Fun.... This is for all our Team Jacob ladies because Jake's warmth is like the sun.

    He’s like a drug for you, Bella. I see that you can’t live without him now. It’s too late. But I would have been healthier for you. Not a drug; I would have been the air, the sun.

    Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 26, p.599


    recommendation -- : Here's another arm exercise -- Pom Pom Circles. I suggest 10 reps at most, with or without weights (but make the weights very small because they are tough and leave me with sore shoulders.) http://www.fitnessmagazine.com/workout/arms/express/strong-arm-exercises/?page=3

    I tried The Lion, but I roared very quietly (my dog really thought I'd gone crazy)! No Rump Raises or Curtseys, yet, but I like the idea of Mississippi with the Twilight names!

    NSV, today a student I'd helped last school year came into the lab and commented on how much weight I'd lost. This prompted my new coworker to ask me how I did it and begged me to email her the link for MFP. :happy:
  • surfrgrl1
    surfrgrl1 Posts: 1,464 Member
    Pom Pom circles and plies, oh my!! Sounds like fun!

    Cardio. 40 minute walk at work 190/150 need cardio on one more day! My coworker is off Friday and Monday so I will be hoofing it alone those days.

    H20: okay I sucked today. Got about 1/2 of it in so far.

    Glute squeezes: 180/250

    Calories: over by a bit tonight. It's Valentines Day, so chocolate was my friend.

    Check in: present and counted for

    Twilight summer: Meyer says that the idea for Twilight came to her in a dream on June 2, 2003. After a summer of detachment from the world, immersed in writing, she finished the manuscript on August 29, 2003. To me that is one awesome summer. Thank you Stephenie for changing my life! :heart:

    Kathy, such an awesome NSV! And to think you may have brought another o the MFP side!!!

    Day 4--Thursday

    Cardio -- 50 minutes walking so I'm ahead of the curve for the week
    Butt Work-- Gotta do another set of 25 in front of TV
    Water--10*8 better than usual
    Cals under-- woo hoo, 3 out of 4 days!
    OK, I was good on walking, but didn't do diddly-squat of the extras. But I have wonderful intentions for those for towmorrow!

    Kathy's quote of Jacob made me think how Jacob is like the sun, both in warmth but also as a grounded center for Bella.

    It’s not like love at first sight, really. It’s more like… gravity moves. When you see her, suddenly it’s not the earth holding you here anymore. She does. And nothing matters more than her.

    Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 8, p.176

    I really can't make any recommendations til I start taking some!!

    Day 4 -- Thursday

    Cardio: 36/150 - It's been a rough couple of days and I've had no time or presence of mine to work out. Will have to make up for it.

    Butt Work... Glute squeezes. 170/250 - Did 50 at work in the privacy of my cubicle.

    Drinker H20 8x8: 4 days of 8!

    Calories/Nutrition: Over for the week so far, but will get some exercise today and over the weekend to help me out.

    Daily Sharing and check in: 3 of 4 I think.

    Twilight Fun: The way Edward is devoted to Bella makes me feel warm all over. :wink:

    Exercise Suggestion: Just do it!
