    Also for this weekend not to have 2 rest days, 1 at the most, to go grocery shopping and stay consistant with my diet, not to focus on the scale but to focus on my eating and workout habits knowing that the weight loss will come.


    I like how you state NOT FOCUS on the SCALE!! this is a wakeup call for me, quit obsessing with it(telling myself) this is a lifestyle change =D

    I put my workouts in my phone like this every week. It pops up with a reminder "GO TO THE GYM" I love it. I wake up and know what workout i am doing everyday :)

    GREAT IDEA!!! Is that is a "google calendar"? The reminder pop up???

    Yep I set it up on google calendar. And the reminder doesnt go away until you dismiss it. I set it up for pretty early in the morning so I know what i have to do and look forward to it :)

    That's is a very smart strategy! I often tell my clients, the first 6-12 weeks is not about weight loss but about focusing on creating the habits and behaviors that lead to weight loss!!!

    GREAT goal! You could even try throwing in challenge for yourself on those walks. Find a landmark along the way just a short distance where you might jog to the next landmark. Repeat this a few times just to get the heart rate up. You will burn more calories in the same amount of time!

    :blushing: Just got back in town from a 4 day convention. It was wonderful in the windy city, Chicago, but I must admit I was tempted by Garret's popcorn and some great Italian food as well. Back in the saddle today. Here is my plan of attack:

    Tues. - Circuit 30 min. (actually did this when I got home last night)
    Wed. - Aerobic 30 min. + 10 min stretching
    Thurs. Circuit 45 min.
    Fri. - Aerobic + 10 min stretching
    Sat. - Circuit 45 min. + 30 min. Aerobic
    Sun. - 30 min. + 10 min. stretch

    :happy: My plan is to eat clean and log those cals. Lots of fruits and veges + water, water, water!

    Worth sharing:
    :tongue: Failing to plan is planning to fail.

    Tuesday I was suppose to do activation and cardio, but my trainer wanted to test upper body again, so I did that, still sore from doing the upper body workout and boot camp challenge from the night before...I was exhausted and ran out of time for the cardio...

    hence I only burned just under 300 calories.......better make up for it this weekend..
    also increasing calories this week...

    Thursday: None.
    Guess I injured my knee trying to get back into running last week, that has set me back.
    Going to aim for my cardio session today, hoping it doesn't bother my knee too much....

    Did my 35 min LIIT resistance program on the bike
    then 10 min on the stair master - just over 300 calories burned.
    Doesn't seem that I will be able to get close to that 500 mark this week, still sore.....trying to heal and train at the same time is difficult! LOL

    Good luck everyone.........tomorrow is another day!
