I didn't do so well today. Ate late dinner and I went over my cal intake by 440. I know that tomorrow is another day, but I feel super guilty about eating late and eating junk. I guess feeling guilty is a start....right? I plan to do better tomorrow. Maybe even get on the eliptical.0

Day 1 right on for cals and my rest day.
Day 2 Did C25K yesterday and did ok w/food til supper...no way of calc cals. will have to drink some extra water and add more exercise today.0 -
Well today is the 3rd but can I still join? Like everyone does every year one of my goals was to lose weight for the year. This is the heaviest I've ever been in my life and my blood pressure is starting to get higher and I'm only 19 so I need to put an end to this. I would also love to be the size i used to be a coupla years ago because I don't want to be fat and miserable all through my college life. I'm going to the beach this October but I'm not sure what a good goal to aim for would be? I'm 182 right now, at one point I went from 187 to 179 but I gained some of it back. Need help staying motived!0

It is never to late to join. We are just trying to get the second half of our year back on track.
Think positive, you can do anything you put your mind to doing. Start with small goals they are easier to achieve and don't seem so daunting. Am for losing 10 lbs at a time, then reward yourself with new book, cd, movie, or new top.
Tips **Drink a lot of water add Special K protein packs (favorite was Strawberry-Kiwi) to it to help you feel fuller longer between meals.0 -

Feel guilty means you know the right thing for your body, sometime we do that, but as long as you don't make it a habit. I try to get in a late afternoon snack so I'm not starved when we eat late, then I brush my teeth so I do't eat again after dinner.
One day at a time.0 -
DAY #3: 1/2 Year Challenge - Today was my day off. I went grocery shopping and ran errands all day. Drank my Shakeolgy and stayed under my calories intake. I'm going to try to workout tomorrow even though I don't usually workout on Sunday. Hubby has Monday Off and I may not get to workout when he is home.0

Hello...weight is on a plateau, but better than gaining! I am on my core & balance week of Insanity. I have 4 more weeks to go after this one. I need to kick it up a notch and do a bit better at night. I do great all day, it is the night w/ my husband that I tend to slip up a bit. I know I can do this:)0

Day #7 was yesterday. I didn't workout until late last night and then has call for work until after 10 which is pass my bedtime.
Day #7: TurboJam Burn from Learn and Burn, then TurboJam Ab Jam burned 4000 calories in 37 minutes. Shakeology yesterday and stayed below my calories for the day.0 -
Day #8: TurboJam "20 Minute" and Brazil Butt Lift "High and Tight" burned 340 calories. Did some free weights since I had time. I think I may jump on elliptical while the boys are still napping, these shakes are giving me tons of energy.0

Kelly,
Come on you can do it, just go for a walk with the dogs or jog/walk alone great for your body, mind and spirit. You have to train them all to be positive.0 -
Day #9: Took Off b/c I got my allergy shots and I can't workout on those days, both arms hurt and it can make me go into shock from allergic reaction.
Day #10 - Was my Belated Birthday Gift of Realxation. Mani/Pedi, then lunch with girls, and shopping.0 -
Is it too late to join in? I am a little behind but I just noticed the thread.
1. My 1/2 year resolution is to continue to work out for at least 30 mins a day 6 days a week.
2. I want to run a 5k this fall. I have been doing the C25k also (starting Week 3 officially tomorrow). I actually do the 30 min walk/run everyday almost at least once sometimes twice to fill my hour of work out in.
M = weights/c25k 30 mins, T = 2x c25k, W = sprints / c25k 30 mins, TH = weights / c25k, F = sprints / c25k, Sa = softball / c25k, Su = 2x c25k - I dont always workout both sat and sun. I usually take one of them off when i have a lot of errands to run.
3. I also want to be below 200 by the end of the year. Thats 23 pounds to go and keep gone. I have been losing steady ( 21 pounds in about 3 months). So I know this is doable even if I hit a plateau.0 -

well, my month of July has more bad days than good. The last 2 have been much better, and I sure feel it. Getting off track is so not worth it. Being mindful about food choices when emotions flare up OR down is a huge struggle for me. BUT, planning my meals for the day and prioritizing time to exercise works. I started C25K on May 28 and last week did not do wk 6. So, will get on the treadmill today and see what happens. I also do a walk/jog and resistance work outs on non C25K days. I am hoping to increase the strength and toning workouts. Have been in calorie range x2 days now, and water has been 8+. Here's to a good day...and a better week!0

i did 2 insanity workouts..total 1.5 hours and a 30 minute workout at the gym today-i am hoping for a good loss this week!0
-
I got 30 mins of weights and 30 mins C25k week 3 day 1. Its the first time since starting the c25k program that my calves are killing me. They are so sore, and its not my shins/shin splits. But its just a soreness..0
-
Did W6D1 of C25K. went pretty slow, but I was able to complete the 5 & 8 minute jogs. Really don't want to repeat any weeks, so I gotta keep with this....
Have been within cals 4 days now, and 9+ water/day. will do ball workout in a couple hours.
How's everyone else doing with July so far?0 -
I did week3 c25k today. Only got in 40 mins of walk/jog. I was just so worn out/sore from the weights yesterday. I want to try again tomorrow to go longer/further.0

Day #13: I was so busy yesterday I forgot to post. Did 100 minutes of cardio TurboJam "20 Minutes" & "AbJam" and fighting with the kids at the swim lesson, grocery store, taylors and then pharmacy in 90+ hot Texas summer,I burned 546 calories.
Shakeology for lunch and was under my calories again. Down 2 lbs today, so something I'm doing is working.
Day #14: TurboJam "Cardio Party" and burned 565 calories in 45 minutes workout. Shakeology for lunch and still have 800 left for the day.0 -
