Fit By Summer - February

So I got up really early today, I am usually not a morning person...we will see how long this lasts I am wondering when my lazy will kick in. But as for now I am getting my green tea in.

How is everyone doing?

Morning!
Well afternoon now. How's the green tea working out for you? I tried it but it tastes too horrible for me to keep drinking.

I'm doing good today. Just got back from an 11 mile run and it was the fastest I've managed in quite a long time. I'm going to use some of the 1200 calories burned on a bacon sandwich :happy:

The green tea is fine, people either love it or hate it... I am actually drinking it to try to get myself from drinking coffee everyday..it actually does give you a little energy boost. Good for you with the running...and I love me some bacon sandwich lol.

happy mondays all

i have lost 2lbs this week its not huge but its good ill take it

will anyone else be watching biggest loser tonight?? im in uk so not sure if it will be showing in states at same time but i do like the show. it sthe UK version tonight and series 9 of usa version tomorrow

i've been feeling a little bleh about my workouts too...thinking i might pick up 30 Day Shred, the reviews on it are amazing and I'd like to mix it up a little. (plus, My Fitness Coach sorta ticked me off today - I went for a 60 minute workout with upper body focus, as last time it was about 40 minutes cardio, 20 minutes upper body; today it went to upper body exercises after FIFTEEN MINUTES. so i had to either modify or completely ignore whatever was going on on-screen to get the workout i wanted.)

BUT, still going strong...and thinking maybe the scale's resistance to moving was due to, ehm, 'other factors' that will hopefully straighten themselves out in the next couple of days.

i spent the day shopping with a friend looking for a gift for my 11yr old daughters birthday havent found anything yet that she hasnt already got loads of but i have until they 15th feb to find the perfect gift

I think my goal for the rest of this week is to make it to the gym for at least two 30 min workouts.

andrea--good luck with your goal!

No movement on the scale this week. Starting to get super discouraged. Really need some motivation...

You know me too, I was told yesterday to just concentrate on the day to day....and you know what tomorrow is another new day..and next week a new week. Just focus on short term goals and we will get there!!

My goals for the rest of this week is to work out 2 times for at least 20 minutes

Hello all! I'm Melissa and I'm fairly new to the whole blogging thing, and I have been tracking for about a month - on and off, but I was told that blogging would help me remember to get back on here. I

My goal by summer is to be down 20 pounds, and to be HEALTHY.
I have an auto immune disorder and if I dont take care of my body then bad things start to happen quickly. I had my gallbladder taken out in April and got pancreatitis from the surgery. All resulting from poor health, I'm sure of it. The most bizzare thing about me is that I'm a bald chick. (Alopecia: please look it up!)

I'm excited to join my first blog

That is a good way to think of it.
So, for today, I did good. I stayed under calories and threw in some extra time on the wii active.

OOOO I have wii active and haven't been on it for awhile!! I will join you.

Good morning! I'm down one pound for today's weigh-in, which is awesome cuz yesterday I was feeling bloated and crappy and thought for sure the weight was creeping back on.

But I drank a TON of water, and today feel great! I gotta remember to always have water at my desk during the day....

So I weighed in this morning and SHOCKER I'm down six pounds from last week :laugh: Oh yeah...I ate all my calories but I did add in Yoga to my routine. Love it! This puts me at 203....My goal is 185 by summer but I might be changing that if this keeps up!

WOOOHOOOOO

KC what is wii active like?
i love the step on wii fitness and doing marching bowling easy things really but great fun i bought wii active ages ago at a bargain price but havent tried it yet i kinda stick to what i like exercise and avoid new things so id love to know what its like

I like the wii active--you have a personal trainer that you follow and they encourage you as you go through the workout, as well as call you out when it think that you didn't put in full effort. I have never not gotten a good workout from it...I only have two dislikes for it: one, the running portions. You run in place for them, and that bothers my ankles. two, the actual wii sensor--sometimes it doesn't pick up your motions correctly (too slow, delayed, etc) and so you don't get into a regular rythm for the exercises.

overall though, it is pretty good.

Hiiii, I go by JD to friends, I currently weight 228 lbs and I'd like to be down at least 50-60 lbs by summer. My parents, my sister and me are going to Florida on July 10th for two weeks. We've been once before, but it was 11 years ago and I was only 8. This time things are so different, I dont want to be too fat for the rides!

Nothing bizarre really, but I did walk right by Susan Lucci in New York once in 2008, she was hiding behind bodyguards. Closest to a celebrity I've ever been!
