    No worries guys - jump right back in!! Believe it or not, it only takes 15 minutes at max to do each day, depending on how long you rest between sets. I did it this morning while packing lunch for my daughter and myself!! Nothing to it but to do it!! We're all rooting for you - jump back in!!

    W2D2: 30 total (12 on last set). I'm a little bummed that I couldn't do more, since I did 30 on the last day, BUT, I'm glad I at least tied myself. :)

    Sorry I haven't gotten the table up guys. I'm going to try to get it together today.

    Nice job ladies! And Amy, I agree. I should be taking pictures. I kind of have a "before" picture from last month that kind of shows my arms, and I'm taking another "during" picture in a few days (one each month until I hit my goal). I'll make sure to flex. :-P

    Have not started week 2 yet. Going through some stuff that has sucked my motivation to do ANYTHING right out of me. Gonna do my best to start week 2 tonight so that I can get back on track with this by next week.

    W2,D2, C2: 57, 14 max, 3 more on my knees

    I found today really hard! I struggled on the last pushup of each set...yikes! Hope I don't have to repeat the week LOL

    W2D2 Total: 34! 15 on the last set. Woot!

    Katie, I think some days are harder than others. Are you warming up before you do them? That can help. I know that I can do more during my circuit workout after I've done this challenge -- I think it just gets the muscles going and then it's easier to do more.

    Everybody's doing fantastic!

    W2D1 (finally!!!) - Officially Total 64 w/ 16 max on the last set (all on knees)

    Why officially? Well, I only did 10 on the last set (was to have been at least 15) and got really down on myself and then really pissed off at myself!! I gave myself a 60 second rest period and then banged out 16 more pushups.

    I won't lie, it has been a VERY difficult 5 days - I found out on Saturday that my dad has Stage IV colon cancer. It has been only 6 months since my mom passed away from lung cancer. Add to all of that the fact that my leg injury has me unable to run - my exercise and stress reliever of choice - and it goes without saying that I have been in a bad place mentally. Dedication to my diet and exercise has gone out the window.

    I made the decision today that I am getting back on the treadmill as of tomorrow morning even if all I can do is walk, and getting those push ups done tonight felt pretty good. I HOPE that tonight will be my turnaround.

    Okay, enough rambling...Keep up the great work, ladies!!!

    Oh Tobi, I'm sorry to hear about that. Good for you for staying active. It won't make everything better, but it will help you be more able to cope. *hugs*

    W2 D2: 14 - 16 - 12 - 12 Max 20 Total = 74!!

    Glad this one went better - I was beginning to think that I'd need to repeat a week! Maybe I just need to start doing these in the afternoon rather than first thing in the morning!

    Seeing some serious muscle in my arms and shoulders after just a week and a half!


    Tobi - I am so very sorry to hear about your Dad. You have my thoughts and prayers.

    Ultra fantastic job on those push ups ladies!! Talk about arms of steel!!

    Great job to all!! I did mine after doing my C25K run so I am wiped out this evening.

    W2D2 - 55 Total, 15 Max

    Tobi - I'm so sorry to hear about your dad and the loss of your mom. Prayers going up for your family. Hugs to you!
