New Challenge - 1st of the month!

Hi I'm Samantha, I am currently getting back on the workout wagon after having a herniated disc and then the loss of my amazing brother. For almost a year before all of this I was fully dedicated to working morning and most nights. My typical workouts are Turbo Fire, Turbo Jam, Chalean Extreme, and P90X. I have completed a round of P90X and Chalean Extreme and was in the process of doing Turbo Fire when I got injured. So for now I mix and match whatever I feel like. Typical schedule:

Monday- Cardio & Abs (my day off so I sometimes do am and pm workouts)
Tuesday- Strength Training, usually legs (12 hr work day)
Wednesday- Cardio & Abs (12 hr work day)
Thursday- Strength Training, upper body (arms, shoulders, back, chest, etc.)
Friday- Cardio & Abs
Saturday- Longer Cardio or some type of strengthening (since I have more time on my hands)
Sunday- Rest Day (at least I try to make it a rest day)

I'm working hard to get my eating back to where it was before, its a work in progress.

Monday - curves - 30 mins
Tuesday - ZUMBA!!!!- 1 hour
Wednesday - curves - 30 mins

Wow, all you guys do some much exercise!!!! Zumba seems the most popular by far

I do Dance every Thursday for about an hour (it varies)
and I try and fit in at least 1 bike or other dance session another time in the week, but its difficult with being so tired from school.
This month will change that though!!!!!!!!!!
Monday, I did an aerobics DVD which has had a lasting effects on my calves and arms!

Thanks Pink_Princess for putting all the stats together. My tough time is on the weekends. During the week, I have my routine at work - breakfast, morning snack, lunch, afternoon snack and about 50 oz. of water. Once I get home, I work out, eat dinner and drink another 16 oz. of water. The weekends are so varied that it is sometimes hard to get get my meals in or at least the right things.

I try to work out every weekday evening, as long as I don't have something planned. My theory is that I will work out every day, if possible, but it always ends up that something comes up one or two of the days. I usually walk on the treadmill for 20 minutes and then do abs and lower body exercises. I am shaped like a pear and the upper body always slims down first.

Good luck to everyone!!!

Hello everyone! Hope day 2 is going okay. Thanks Pink_Princess for the challenge. I hope that I can do this. This is my second challenge and I surprised myself with it so I intend to really put in work this month. I am SO into this!!..I don't really have a specific workout plan so to say and I work out at home but I make sure that I do plenty of cardio and some strength training. I use exercise tv for my workouts and I've only planned up for tomorrow. I'll post the rest of the week once I'm totally sure about which workouts I'll do, but here's what I've done so far:
March 1, 2011 - Leslie Sansone - Start Walking 2 Mile Walk - 30 min.
- Amy Dixon - Cardio Kickboxing - 20 min.
-Stephanie Vitorino - Bikini Body Ready - cardio+sculpt - 20 min.

March 2, 2011 - Leslie Sansone - Start Walking 1 Mile Walk - 20 min
-Cindy Whitmarsh - Less is More Cardio(calisthenics?) - 30 min.(killed me!)

I actually plan to do a little more this evening, but I'm trying to wait until I can go and invest in a heart rate monitor.....I WILL be logging in more later, and my diary is open to friends now....catch y'all later!!!!!:smokin: :smokin: :smokin:

I will post my weekly exercise routine also, although it does change every 30 or so days because of the program I'm on.

M: Turbo Fire (TF) longer cardio
T: TF HIIT workout, TF strength workout, ab workout
W: TF longer cardio
Th: TF HIIT workout, TF strength workout, ab workout
F: TF longer cardio
Sa: HIIT workout, TF strength workout, ab workout
Su: rest

Don't worry Pink_Princess....I could not put down the chalupas today, but I'm still at least 400 under my calorie goal so I'll try to play it safe this time!:glasses: :glasses:

Hey Pink Princess, you asked if anything inspired us today, and I have to say YES!!!!!! We have been doing biggest loser at work, we all pitch in $7 and the winner get s the pot at the end of 15 weeks.

Long story short, there were 15 of us in the challenge, I am currently in the lead at 8.1% lost, but.....the guy right behind me lost 4 lbs this week to my 2, so he inspired me to keep it up this morning. He is only 1 lb behind me now.........ARGH!!!!!!! I have to win! There is also a 1/2 hour massage on the line and a gift card to our shop of choice!

I wanna join if its not too late!

My current weight (on my scale at home) is 156.6 (today at the doctor it was 155.6, but I won't be using that scale for this challenge lol)

and my goal for April 1st is 148.
So that's like 8 1/2 pound weight loss for the month...

Here is a quote I like:
