The SWaT Team Challenge - Month 2

Im BAAAAACk! Sorry went awol for a few weeks! The WATP workouts were really painful...so i was getting physio on my foot because my excercise plan was killing me...and was told to take it easy! Seems i have scar tissue on my ankle which is why it so weak...and to be honest then i just got lazy Im back from vacation now with a few extra pounds - not from eating badly i dont think but from not excercising...it doesnt take long to creep back on! Thanks for not giving up on me and the messages to get my butt in gear! I can say that i must have wallked a good couple kms each day while on vacation, but had my ankle brace on.

Have to get back on track!

tag, for later :happy:

Hey everybody, This has just turned into a sucky week for me. Having to work overtime and just don't have the energy to walk. Trying to keep my calories in line though. I'll have to hit it hard this weekend.

Don't worry Sandy, I think I'm doing enough for the both of us another 6 miles today.
yuck, it's to hot and humid to be walking outside (Plum stuck his head out the door and went back in the house:laugh: )
hope all is well with all the other walkers, keep cool and walk strong (in the shade):bigsmile:

Hi Everybody! I know I've been MIA the last couple weeks, but we were on vacation and now I'm playing catch up with everything. I did Leslie's 3 mile walk today. I really didn't feel like it, but I did it anyway. I'm glad I pushed myself. I'm at a plateau, which I didn't think was possible after gastric bypass. I've been fighting with 2 pounds and I finally decided to push through with exercise. Fingers crossed. I hope this works.

Hi everyone! I've been walking and have gone past my goal--unlike last time when I didn't make it.

I am going to continue walking because it seems to have started the scale moving down again--YAY!

Plummy--I am still looking at the preview clips but I'm pretty sure I'll be getting the 5 Day Slimdown and one other (I'll be buying them from Amazon.com, though, because their prices are better than the ones at collegevideo.com.) I won't decide until next Friday (payday). I'll let you know how I like them.

As for Clear--we've been waiting for either Clear or Fios (Verizon) to come to our area. We are pretty limited here--pretty much have to choose between Qwest and Comcast (which we already have). My son is considering getting our own hotspot from Sprint for internet, though. We need to be able to use whatever it is with the xbox 360 as that's how we watch our Netflix shows and movies. (I am planning on getting Kinect when it comes out in November--looks pretty cool!)

Well, have some things to work on. Will be back tomorrow!

wanted to get up early this am to work out, but I didn't get enough sleep so had to do it tonight, now my calves ache:ohwell:
total of 4 miles- glad I did it. felt like I accomplished something great, even 'tho I had low energy, the pizza bread I just had helped:laugh:
have a great sunday!

well I worked another 12 hours today (day2 of 4 in a row), so I'm a little punked out:ohwell:
managed to do 2 miles with a dvd and another mile with Plum, first time he liked it more than me:bigsmile:
GOOD PUPPY:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

6 miles done today!!!

I did it! I made 20 miles for the month. I had my doubts because of vacation, but it worked out. OK...what's going on next month? Are we doing this again?

Luneytoonz--I'm game for another month since I plan on walking anyway! I don't know what my goal will be because I plan to spend some time working on some jewelry pieces but I'll think about it.

Hi everyone!

Well I did get in 4 more miles today so I only missed my goal by 5 miles.

I've really enjoyed being part of this group and would love to see it continue. I know we lost some folks along the way but there are several of us that have really hung in there. Maybe some of the others will come back or we'll pick up some new members along the way. I'm like you pmjsmom, I want to continue walking but I also want to try some other things mixed in. I'll probably cut my goal in half so I can have some time to try out the slim in 6 workout and the Leslie sansone You can do Abs. I've got to start working on some strength training to help out with all the jiggly stuff I have going on! :laugh:

What does everyone else think about continuing? I'm wilth the rest of you whatever you all want to do.

Sandy

Pmjsmom - Is that your kitty? It's a cutie!

WOOPS!
woke up late and FORGOT to weigh in:grumble: guess I'll do it tomorrow...
walked another 4 miles tonight after work-

Sandy I do it out of guilt (wanting the numbers to drop, wanting to meet my goal on the challenge, wanting my wine, wanting my skinny cow, wanting, wanting, wanting). today was my 4th 12 hour shift and I'm off tomorrow so I'll start slim in 6- yep there is push ups, but I'm planning to do the wall type... oh yea I'm working 2 more 12s this week.. so -

I'm gonna keep walking along with the slim in 6, so I will be doing a bit less on days I work, but would like to keep this thing going, just because you guys push me!!!

I sent Rob another note, but I don't expect a reply-too bad:ohwell:

I'm trying to start a new topic for this next montth but MFP appears to be having some difficulties this morning. Look for SWaT Team Challenge-Month 3 in fitness and exercise if I don't get a link posted here.

Okay--got it. I'm not sure how to post a link but you can always copy and paste!
