    I read this about Lunges and Squats

    Remember to push out your tush and don't let your knees go farther forward than your toes. You'll strengthen your knees, quads and hips.

    Good evening ladies..... made the switch to the new thread. If it is okay I will put a link on the old link so everyone will find us. Makes it easier anyway! Looking forward to our challenges this week and I am up for the task.

    Mon: Will do my push ups, crunches, and lunges in just a bit. No fast food, had my 8 glasses of water, and had 4 f & v's.

    The fruits and veggies are going to be my tough one!!!! Off to do dishes and then go for my walk!

    Talk to you all tomorrow!!!!

    Hey everyone

    ashnichole10 nice job on your weightloss!!

    tigermom79 I was counting the points at first but now I just log my foods on here and some days I go back and add the points after it's been calculated I just fell in love with this site so this month will be my last month at WW!!! I will miss it but honestly the first time I went to WW I was more successful then this time and I actually stayed longer this time around. I have been having a real stressful time dealing with not working right now so it's been a little harder than before but now I am back focused on my weightloss and I realize stressful things are going to happen that I may not be able to control but I can control what I put in my mouth!!:happy:

    Sundinsgurl Thanks for the suggestion about the weigh ins!!

    Well ladies I got weighed in and didn't look I am going to stick with it and see how long I can go I am going to try to make it til the end of the month then again on my birthday!! Once that happens then I will be back to once a week!!

    Hey ladies! Not a great day today, I was at the doctor all day with my son so of course we were tired and hungry and ate out.
    I also had 2 cokes and a glass of tea today UGH. I really don't know why I do this. I feel like I can eat something and not log it, or just have a small bite and it's no biggy. I think I have a mental problem with food lol. I have all the tools, I just can't/won't do it. I have no motivation or will power.
    So, for the rest of this week I am honestly going to do my best to lose this 5 pounds I set out to lose this week.

    Thanks for listening to be babble lol

    Monday-- 16 glasses of water 25 crunches-25 pushups-0 lunges

    I will make up my lunges tonight as I plan to double up. I must admit I was bad for lunch, I ate a piece of peach pie. We did say we needed to eat 5-6 servings of fruit/vegs, correct?!

    Have a great afternoon and I will check in later tonight.

    I'm sure that none of us other ladies have that same issue that's why I keep asking myself why am I here :laugh: !!!! I been there myself hang in there I am sure the rest of the week will go well and keep you focused on your weight loss goal!!

    Yesterday the lady at my WW meeting said something that made so much since and it was like a light bulb went off for me she said even though we all have stressful situations that happen some out of our control there are two things that we can control and that is what goes in our mouth and what we do to keep active!! (so that is my focus now controling what goes in my mouth even though the rest of my world is totally out of control)

    I signed up for another race on June 26th it's a 5K I think this running thing is contagious:noway: It's a free race in the hopes to get people in the city that I live in to get up and get active!! So I get a chance to beat my last time sooner than what I expected!!

    Good for you.....I have a friend that started running and she said the same thing....so I gave it a whirl....NOT.....My knees just can't take it. Too many baton twirling injuries I guess. I have always had a problem with my knees. Can't ride a bike either and I used to love to do that. Have fun and good luck!!!

    Ok, so yesterday I did 50 pushups, could not do the situps because my back was hurting so I did extra pushups. And I got 16 lunges in when my knees decided to protest. Hopefully today I can get more in. I may have to work up to the 50. I drank 16 cups of water and got in 5 servings of fruits and veggies.

    I have been told that I drink way too much water, is that really possible?

    Hey everyone! :O) I hope you all are having a great week so far. I started P90X yesterday and I'm following that workout schedule and also making sure I try to meet our weekly challenges, so my numbers for some days are going to be higher than others. My body sure is sore today, but I know that's a good thing right!? lol I really need to work on getting in my fruits/ veggies- mainly because I need to go to the grocery store, so I will try to do that this afternoon!

    Monday- 4 c. water, no eating out, 0 fruit/ 0 veggie
    Tuesday- 6 c. water, no eating out, 0 fruit/ 2 veggie, 200-225 crunches (Ab Ripper X), 128 push-ups, 50 lunges (each leg)
    Wednesday-
    Thursday-
    Friday-
    Saturday-
    Sunday-

    Thanks cnbethea! I used to go to WW too until I found this website, I stopped going to meetings a couple months ago. I don't know how you can not look at your weight though, that takes a lot of will power! Good for you! =)
