TUESDAY CHALLENGE 10/26/10

10 Water, Under Cals, 50 minutes of exercise plus 10 minutes of resistence training.... for example: lift weights, do pushups, squats, lunges, calisthenics..SP??

I have a busy day planned, starting with a doctor's appointment this morning, then exercise and then work so I'll be quite active and likely quite tired.

I'm getting my water in as I type and will be done shortly.
The meals I have planned are well under my cals and I haven't even calculated in the Spin class I'm taking my work kids to tonight! I may have to add something at some point.
Tjis morning I have 60 minutes of exercise planned 10 of which will be resistance training.

So far looking good.

Hope everyone's day goes well.

261 members! No wonder I'm having trouble keeping up on the thread!

Yesterday was a rest day for me - my knee was so sore, I just took the day off. Plus, I didn't have a rest day last week. Still struggling to meet 8 glasses of water, not to mention 10.

I'm on my way to the gym for my exercise goals and I'm half way to the daily water goal. Should be under calories today. I'm hoping for a big week this week!

How is everyone doing today?! I am feeling motivated and excited! 30 lbs less by Christmas would be awesome! My sister is getting married in March so I am trying to lose weight so I am not the biggest bridesmaid!! SO far so good! I was recently diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis and the doctor has me on prednisone right now and it has really started messing with my weight loss. But I am determined to fight against it and lose weight anyway!

You are putting too much stress on yourself. Yes, we all want to reach our goals as fast as possible. But little setbacks like missing a day of training is not something to sweat. Just do not get depressed about it and make it up the next day by running the stairs 10 extra minutes as punishment. Negative emotions causes a rise in cortisol. So stay positive. Close your eyes, breath deep and visualise how you are going to tear it up at the gym tomorrow.

Great Day for my goals. Calories under if I count my exercise calories. Water check, check. One hour of walking in check. What a great day! Here is a pat on the back to all who are sticking in there and to another great week. I CANT BELIEVE THOSE TOTALS ON THE SPREAD SHEET!
