Happy Day One! The exercises for this week are below. Please log your start weight and measurements...and if you would like your goal weight as well. I am super excited for this everyone! This is going to be great!

June 1- Rock it and shock it! 5 miles
June 2- Scrape yourself out of bed and get 2 miles in
June 3- Jillian Michaels 30 day shred
June 4- 3 miles
June 5- Rest
June 6- Jillian Michaels 30 day shred
June 7- 3 miles

Again, don't care how you get the miles in. Walk, hike, run, bike, whatever you like. On June 8th check in. You can post weight loss weekly, I think 2 free no-weigh weeks are appropriate, since I'm a girl and my weight goes crazy at TOM. Sorry to all the boys that had to hear that but, hey its the truth. If you chose to post measurements I think re-posting those along with weight loss is a good idea too. The YouTube link to 30 day shred is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Pc-NizMgg8

    SW- 132.5
    GW-125
    Waist- 32.5
    Hips- 39.5
    Calve-13.5
    Thigh- 22.5
    Chest- 34
    Neck- 12

    This makes me wonder if I have Popeye Legs...which I did have a boyfriend tell me once. However, notice that my calves are bigger than my neck. Is that normal? Not that I want a big neck, just something I discovered today. I'm not excited about my waist size either, BUT- it was 37 inches before I lost my weight....so really I am super excited about this!

    June 1: body pump + body attack (2 hour super Saturday)
    June 2: Run 6.0 30-40 mins outside
    June 3: Run 6.0-7.0 25 mins and 15 mins uphill run intervals plus weights 45 mins (chest and abs)
    June 4: stair intervals (30-45 minutes) and lifting 70 -80 minutes (legs plyos, shoulders, and back)
    June 5: Body attack (60 mins) and lifting 50 minutes (biceps and triceps)
    June 6 and 7: rest or try evening run (I have a conference those two days - travel)

    Had to condense the work week workouts to 3 days due to my conference, usually have a rest day mid week or just a short warm up before.
    Have a great week!

    Hahah Popeyes legs... That made my morning. I'm sure it's normal to have it either way, as long as its not double the size

    I had today totally planned out...16 mile bike ride by the lake....awesome workout. 3 miles back, flat tire. Sonova*****! So. Stinking. Mad. However. I salvaged the day, got my 5 miles in and a few more walking back. Sometimes you gotta roll with the punches.

    Ahh hate when things like that happen, but you still got in a workout! Roll with the punches for sure!

    Today I walked three miles. I know that we planned for only 2 but well, hell. I REALLY want to lose 10 pounds! Does anyone else weigh in more than once a week? Thoughts? I know that it can be a deal breaker but I also know that it can keep me focused. Of course I;m not asking anyone else to do this. Just wondering if anyone else is OBSESSED with their dirty scale?

    Thanks Kim. I have to admit that my scale went up .5 lb today. I realize that I exercised both days this weekend and have been working hard so I wasn't all that upset because I thought., well...that is a number that I can trust, I'm no higher than that, and I'm pretty cool with 132. I mean, it;s not where I want to be at the end of this but hey...it's a helovalot better than 158! I feel skinny.

    Your doing great! To help you out.. If muscles are sore they hold water weight so it might more than likely be that! You put a lot of work in at the gym :o)

    But I'm guilty of the same thing, daily weigh ins, but have tried to control the urge lol it's just so hard not to
