    I Corinthians 15:57 NKJV

    But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

    Know today that no one can define you, only you can define you. So when others speak odds about you don't fret, just put your V fingers up because you are "VICTORIOUS"

    I will like to say to all of our group friends i am so proud of yall yesterday was a blessing I see our challenge for this week is going great. I am sending everyone:flowerforyou:

And my oh my the sweat was pouring. I feel like whatever comes my way today with the help of God i can take it. Don't let anyone or anything distract you from your journey because this is Our Year Our Season. I will post my steps and water tonight. I pray everyone have a great day keep moving and keep believing:heart:

    I can't seem to make my daily exercise calories burned for 60 minutes for some reason it seems like its just too high of calories for me to burn. in 60 minutes I managed to burn approximately 75 percent of it its like I would have to walk an hour and a half to two hours to burn that many calories and on different days I walk different miles per hour most of the time its between 2.7 and 2.9.

    This is what I do a lot of interval it causes higher calories burn in less time. If I jog then I will walk for a few seconds and back and forth. Also I make sure i am challenged heart rate to it fullness. But I understand what you are saying work at it slowly you are doing great.

    see I go to the gym and walk on the treadmill so there is only so fast and for so long I can do it. In two sessions I walked an hour and a half and I still didn't reach that amount of calories i'm supposed to burn in 60 minutes but what I can try is walking longer at each time and see how many minutes it will approximately take.

    Welcome to our group Tamicia, Teresa, Becky and my dear friend Pricilla and Gina:flowerforyou:

    @ Teresa, that is a lot of cardio and it is great. I found when I walk on my treadmill I have to have a incline and walk intervals to burn high calories. If you workout for 60 minutes straight I would do at least 45 minutes of them intervals, they really work. Also I found aerobics mix with cardio machine burn great calories.

    @ Pricilla, and we are looking for all you have to share with us.

    @ Becky, you will be more fabulous by your wedding day.

    @ Heather, awe you are so sweet thanks for all the love.

    @ Tamicia, Yes, Yes, yes this is Your Year, Your Season to Shine. Oh on yesterday I saw you did 26,284 steps now I know you feel on fire, I remember those days.

    To all my beautiful friends this is differently our year we will see great results and we will reach greater heights. And we are looking to reach personal goals. We are here for the long haul and we will Overcome:wink:

    Today, I've had a great day so far I manage to get a great workout done early, I just :love: early workouts. So far for today I've burned 3,244 calories, 11,040 steps, and drink a gallon of water (128 oz) oh yes I made it to my usual gallon. I feel wonderful with great energy:laugh: I pray all have a bless and great sleep tonight, because tomorrow is a new day with it's own challenge so we be prepared to embrace what ever comes:heart:

    I don't know why but I am just exhausted tonight. I think this colder than usual weather has just worn me down. I think I am heading off to bed early tonight. Take care all.

    Thursday - I need help with with recipes, food alternatives, great snack ideals. I tend to get stuck in the same food circle and bread/pasta and I are REALLY great friends. But we need not be because I am a borderline diabetic. Normally I "try" to eat decently Monday thru Saturday but then I eat what I want on Sunday. So I really do need new ideas and alternatives mainly for my carbs. You know the saying that Lay's has, "You can't eat just one"? In my mind, I'm thinking, "bag"? :laugh: LOL!!! So please help me and my family out. Theses changes are not just for me but for my family as well. My husband has cholesterol and blood pressure issues(but he is not over weight by any stretch) and my son is adhd and he can not have sugar or carbs and processed foods because I try to keep him off medicine as much as possible as well as he is deathly allergic to seafood. I have been doing pretty good as far as choices go, for breakfast and dinner as we mostly do a meat and and a veggie. But every now and again (like yesterday :ohwell: ) for lunch I will breakdown and each some good old high calorie, highly processed bread. So HELP!!!

    1 Thessalonians 5:18 KJV

    In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

    Today as we go about our day take a moment and stop and tell the Lord Thank You. We know In Him We live, In Him We Move, In Him We Have Our Being. It is His Goodness we are not consumed. We have a lot to be thankful for. Our journey is in His hands and He will give us each day the strength we need to endure.


    @ Teresa, I did a treadmill workout this morning extra to see what I can show you what I was saying about the calorie burn. I did a treadmill jog intervals for 12 minutes and burned 247 calories. I pushed it to my limit and I did the intervals in 2 min/1min, 2 min/ 30 sec, 1.5 min/ 30 sec back and forth. Now lets say I kelp it up for 60 minutes I would have burned more than 800 calories because the more you challenge yourself during your workout the more calories you burn. Now yes it was not easy but it was doable. That is what ppl do when they don't have a lot of time to workout but want to get a big workout and burn. I hope this help you if not I will do all I can figure this out for you:heart:

    Thursday, Food Sharing- @ Pricilla here are some ideas, I cook oven fried chicken, homemade chicken alfredo, turkey burgers, I always use salt free ketchup also ground jennio turkey, I make all my recipes with fresh foods, trying to cut down on sodium and make it with less f a t. I make homemade pizza. I will give you my recipes if you would like.

    Well so far today I've been working out like mad:laugh: I am on a mission. I burned so far to day 1,968 calories, 13,285 steps, and 96 oz od water. I feel fantastic I might get a little more burn in today we will see. I hope everyone have a great day. Keep moving and keep believing.

    Good morning all and Happy Friday!!! :happy: :happy: :happy:

    Friday- Fitness, How's your fitness workouts going so far this week, are you having any challenges you need help with.

    _________________________________________________________________________________________________________
    I so had a plan. I started doing Leslie Sanson's "Walk it off in 30" where you do her "burn 30 " M/W/F and then "firm 30" T/TH/S and you have Sunday off. All was going well until I hurt my back. Today I feel really well, just got a little ache on my right side so I think I'm gonna try the "Burn 30" and see if I can pick up where I left off.

    I am really gonna have to try Hard to do 5000 steps and 96 oz of water a day from now on because it really is a great goal to try. Eventually I want to get to where I can do 10000 steps and 128 oz a day. According to my fitbit zip I average about 3833 a day so I am shooting for 4000 today.

    My son likes to ride his bike and I have joined him on occasion so I will try this article (http://www.ehow.com/how_6081289_convert-exercise-bike-miles-steps.html ) on how to convert bike riding into steps. If any body has a better way, please let me know...

    Enjoy your Friday!!!
