    I'm totally game for the weekend challenges. I do HORRIBLE on the weekends. I never get any water in and either I don't eat anything or I eat way to much. This weekend I caught up on sleep the entire time so I was hardly up at all. I managed to get some exercise in yesterday but I hadn't eaten much at all and then I went to my Dad's and we had takeout (of course). I'm terrible about logging my food on weekends too. I really need some help and I think the weekend pact would be a great motivator.

    Mini-Challenge: Mon-Fri Goals:

    1. Burn 4000 calories
    2. Run a total of 15.5 miles
    3. Do weights on two mornings this week
    4. Drink at least 100oz water everyday
    5. No eating after 9.30pm

    All my food is planned out for the week so if my exercise schedule goes to plan then I should be 'under' in every category.
    Although I am starting to worry that my fat and sugar allowance's fill up quite quickly which leaves me very far under on my calorie intake if I have a good burn (like today)...could try changing up some foods I suppose.

    Todays' mini challenge results:

    1. Burned 1149 / 4000 calories
    2. Ran 3.2 / 15.5 miles
    3. No weights this morning (0 / 2)
    4. Drank 108oz water
    5. Ate after 9.30pm :(

    Good luck tomorrow girls! :flowerforyou:

    Please help get my pansy *kitten* out of this rut! I gave in and splurged on a McD's flurry :(( I was craving it last night and didn't get one so I caved in tonight! And on top of that i didn't work out.
    Insanity starts tomorrow...NO MORE EXCUSES!!!!!!!!!! Please kick me in the *kitten* to get going!
    I told Keith (the fiance) that he better kick my butt if I don't work out every day the rest of this week...he agreed to do it so we shall see what happens!

    NO MORE EXCUSES...NO MORE EXCUSES...NO MORE EXCUSES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Weekends are actual easier for me. Normally my husband keeps us so busy that there is no time for overeating. Like yesterday, we had breakfast and he was ready to get out the door! We took our boat to the shop where he works to get it ready for the season. And we ended up there ALL DAY. We took bottled water and a couple protein bars for a snack, but I had no idea we would be there until after 8pm. So there was no lunch! I was starving! So I had him stop at Wal-mart on the way home and pick up one of those Market Fresh pizza's...the thin crust canadian bacon really isn't too bad on calories. At this point I was craving pizza! But anyway we get home and I get it in the oven, and the next thing I know he walks in with blood pouring from his forehead! I looked at it and he HAD to have stitches. So forget eating...off to the ER! Another two hours later I got to eat! And yes that's normally how my weekends go. My husband can go all day without eating and it doesn't bother him at all. He gets busy working on a project and just forgets about food. He doesn't have to take breaks to go and eat. I try to take things to snack on when I know there won't be any food around. But like yesterday, I didn't know it would be an all day ordeal.

    I wish I could say the same. While the weekends tend to be busy for us, we usually spend it hanging out with others - heavy duty socializing - which usually involves food. Potlucks, visits to friends house etc ... usually ruin it for me.

    Hope your husband is feeling better. Wish I was like him - getting so busy I would forget about food. My tummy won't let me do that :(

    Hey, everyone,

    I'm around. I've been struggling emotionally lately due to a few difficult things happening in my life. I'm sorry I haven't been more supportive. Normally, my personality is the kind that talks a lot but I'm just not up for it. I'm still checking in and will chime in when I can.

    Good luck with INSANITY! I start the 60 day program in 2 weeks! I am doing it for some extra cardio from time to time right now while I finish P90X. My problem at the moment is my hubby is burnt out on P90X already and won't do the workout at night with me anymore like we originally were. Now he just wants to come home and sit on the couch and watch movies! Grrrrrr! So that's messing up my workout time! I don't have time to do the full hour in the morning before work and he's a pain about it if I want to do it at night now! JUST 2 WEEKS left and he's being a butt!! So frustrating!! Will just do what I can when I can!!

    LADIES =) I love you all so much, you keep me smiling!! HAHA Robin ;) A good girl never kisses and tells ;)

    I am baaaaaack though, I PROMISE! I apologize for my mini-hiatus. It was a great past 4 days, let me tell you. I made some bad choices and some good. Today is the first day since Thursday that I decided to "log" everything and I am doing well so far! I am also going to hit the gym up hardcore tonight after work. I havne't worked out since Thursday. I think maybe I needed a little break to appreciate how well I doing! I felt so cruddy last night after falling off for 3+ days. I even made PB and choc chip cookies (burnt them and failed wife test #1) and I still ate FOUR of them--burnt!! YUCK I needed to get back at it today. I bet if I didn't have THIS challenge and YOU ladies, I would have disappeared.

    SO, thank you all for the congratulations' and the kind words. Thanks for the encouragement to keep going. Thanks for JUST BEING THERE for me to come back to!

    We did well this week as far as the spreadsheet goes. Jackie was kind enough to help me with some crazy fancy formula's to make it easy! I asked her to check one thing and then I will get it out to you guys when it's perfect!!! =)
