Weighed in for the first time in about a month and I am up 1.5 lbs. My official starting weight is 145 for the shred. I'm really motivated to be doing the 30 day shred, I hope this motivation continues for the whole 30 days!! I really wanna complete it on my first try because Id love to see the results it gives. I am also doing other exercise along with it so the results wont just be from the shred.

Good mornin everyone!!!!

Have a wonderful day!!!!!

I was wondering where everyone was as well! I hope we didnt loose people.. we need to stay strong together, because this challenge is only halfway done (right? we are doing 16 weeks?)

raindancer - I just assumed you made a typo :P since I know muscle helps burn fat!! It might be 1.5 of fat though since I did go to a chinese buffet (all you can eat), and didnt work out as much as I had been before, especially last week cause I was sick. But I like the positivity.. yes it was muscle lol

so halfway there... we'll make these last 8 weeks really count!!

cnbethea - once again HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!! You kick butt. and I hope you had a little treat to celebrate your bday. I know you managed to get in a workout so thats pretty darn amazing!!

raindancer - dont worry about the chinese buffet, its only one day. Think about how far you've come. One buffet isnt going to ruin anything. You can do better tomorrow - and you will Try to get some exercise in if you can

Banana Oatmeal Cookies
Cookies without wheat, sugar, oil, or salt? You betcha! You'll need a good, strong blender like a Vita-Mix to blend the oats into a fine flour; otherwise, purchase oat flour at the health food store.

makes about 24 cookies

2 cups oats
3/4 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. cinnamon
4 medium overripe bananas
1/4 cup sunflower seeds
1/4 cup chopped dates

Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment and spray with nonstick spray.

Use a good blender to blend the oats into fine flour. Pour the oat flour into a mixing bowl and add the baking soda and cinnamon.

Put the peeled, overripe bananas into the blender and blend until completely smooth. Add to the oat mixture along with the sunflower seeds and dates, and mix until well combined.

Use a 1-ounce cookie scoop to place spoonfuls of the cookie dough on the baking sheet.

Bake for 12 minutes. Cool cookies on a wire rack and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Won our baseball game today.. wohoo, than tied our soccer game 0-0. I had to play net the first half since we didnt have a goalie (so I volunteered) than I played out for the second half. Came home and did the Shred Day #5 right away.

Soooo mad at myself that I didnt do the shred yesterday - stupid hangovers. But I am proud that I didnt just throw it all away and give up. I forced myself to get back to it today and I did it! 1/6th of the way there.

I have had at least 14 glasses of water lol
did eat McDonalds McChicken for lunch
25 push ups
10 lunges
50 crunches
still no new recipe
no free weight workout - but kindaaa because its in the Shred lol


Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend - I know I sure did I was hoping to go rollerblading and play tennis with my boyfriend but we ended up getting invited to play baseball, than the weather wasnt too nice (rain) so we didnt get that in.

A new week.. so a new challenge. What shall it be..? hmmmm
- certain amount of jumping jacks?
- leg raises?

Hello Hello All.... hope everyone is still here... or at least will return shortly after the weekend

We need to decide on something to add for the challenge this week.. I mentioned a couple in my above post - anyone have any suggestions so we can get started today.
