    Last night I tried a new class. A Body Pump class. It was intense but has really upped my enthusiasm and motivation. I feel good today. Better than the last two days. Hope it sticks!

    Did 10 Minute Solution: Rapid Results fat burner DVD for the first time tonight. I will be adding this to my routine.The time went by so fast and its a good workout. I did all 5 workouts (50 mins~Burned 381 cals).

    I might get that one and add it to my stash as well! I don't use the weighted gloves for the kickboxing one, but I have have wrist/ankle weights that I use - they're 1.5kg total I think. Arms are definitely feeling it by the end of the 50 mins!

    I've started taking a 30 minute walk in my lunch hour - so instead of just sitting at my desk reading the newspaper, I get an extra 2 miles a day!

    I'll have to check this one out. I'm always open for a new workout to add to my collection. Thanks!

    I'm really craving Wendy's for lunch, but I'm not willing to sacrifice my 4lb by the end of January goal. Maybe I'll go there and get JUST the spicy chicken sandwich?

    Don't do it Rach!! You'll regret it later!! Remember, you are NOT willing to sacrifice your efforts so far this month, keep that momentum going!! Head to your local grocery store and pick up a salad and a fruit or likewise....

    Well if I go have just the sandwich, I'll still have 600 or so calories left for dinner, and that's IF I don't exercise. I'm thinking I may treat myself today, but skip the fries and soda. Spicy chicken sounds soooo much better than the hot pocket I have. :laugh:

    That's a great idea! I am having a hard time finding time to work out between work and my commute and taking care of my sweet daughter - I think I will try to walk at lunch too.

    I did KenpoX today and kept within my calorie limits. Didn't get a dog walk because all the roads & sidewalks were covered in sheets of ice this morning but it's all good!

    There's a Chipolte up here but I've never ate there. I heard it was yucky.

    I just did the Biggest Loser Power Walk for the first time. It was a little easy but fun. Burned off another 140 calories so I can't really complain. :)

    so far so good. i'm feelin good about the weigh in on monday. although a couple days ago my nose started running, but i ran 4mi anyways and then the next morning i had a full on chest cold. probably shouldnt have ran but oh well. i'll do weights for the next day or two, as to not aggrevate this cold more.
    it's 50degrees here in my neck of the woods in oregon! warmest day yet this winter! loving it. feels like summer lol

    Hey girls!
    What is the Biggest Loser walk? Is it a DVD? I did the Biggest Loser Cardio Max DVD today...did the warmup, workout with Bob, workout with Jillian (despise her), workout with the blonde trainer, and then the cooldown. it burned 616 calories and I felt every single second of that workout! I'd love to do more Biggest Loser workouts and am glad to know there is a walking workout!

    i think im going to try keeping my net calories around 1200-1300. no way im i eating all of my exercise calories w/o a heart rate monitor... and i'm sure not all my food is 100% accurate. so even if my net calories are around 1100... im sure thats fine :)

    Oregon too!

    It was nice to have a warmish day. I am way up in Portland so it really is never that cold.

    I hope your cold goes away quickly!

    Had a good day today. My blood sugar got too low for a while (I'm severe hypoglycemic, my normal after eating doesn't get higher than 90 and my normal during the day is 40-50) it was down well into the low 30's high 20's. Almost passed out, managed to make it to the kitchen and get some orange juice. Feeling better now just tired. :)

    Ashley those are crazy numbers. Did it happen because you hadn't eaten anything for a while? Hope you managed to get some rest.

    Everyone is doing soooo well! Let's keep it going through to weekend and we'll have great numbers on Monday!

    My starting weight was up 2lbs from the week before and that really gave the me kick I needed to get back into working out properly! I trained x6 last week and so far this week I've done 7 classes (may have been over doing it a little) so today is a rest day for me. Have loved every minute of it this week but I am really feeling it today! I'm going to try a new circuit class tomorrow morning so hoping I survive!!

    Hi, my current weight is now 288.5 lbs I have started this journey Tuesday of this week and I have done a weigh in this morning Friday and I have lost 3lbs.

    Happy Friday! I did a 45 min walk with the dog (who decided to roll around in a mud pit and then I had to give her a bath when we got home :grumble: ) and then ran on the treadmill for 40 minutes. I'm working on a 10K training program and so far I really like it as it has tempo runs, speed work and steady runs for variety and to work on endurance AND getting faster. Today was a P90X rest day so I'm done with my exercise for the day and get to enjoy my day!

    yeah I slacked big time last three days been sick and next Thursday I have to have a cyst removed so my workout will not be happening for a week or so until thats healed enough. Plan to still weight in...Just gonna be watching calories more then I have been and being creative with workouts so I can keep this weight loss going and I still heal. Gonna do as much working out as I can next week kickboxing and such before Thursday.
