    Yah, I am just honestly really bad about counting calories and entering all my food. I really need the exercise to offset what I put in my mouth. On the bright side, my ankle feels a lot better today, so hopefully I won't be on the bench for too long!

    Hello Everyone. I did not post anything last week I was sick and was able to only worked out 3 days Monday Tuesday and Wednesday. Here's the info

    Monday- JM 30 day Shred L1 and L2
    Interval training on Treadmill 40mins+ 10 mins(warm up and cool down)

    Tuesday- JM30DS L1
    Elliptical Trainer 45 mins


    Wednesday- JM30DS L1
    Walking on incline on treadmill (4.0-6.0) 20 mins
    Tae Bo 8 mins


    I got back to working out on Tuesday and taking it easy so not really doing. Here's what I hae done so far

    Tuesday- Run on treadmill 3 miles than walk 1.5 miles

    Wednesday: Burn Fat Boost Metabolism

    Thursday: Ran outside 3.2 miles. JM30DS L1


    I'm going to do a couple of days of a morning and an evening workout (5days/wk) but the other 3 days will do two workout back to back in the morning. It's hard to do it at night because I feel all I do is workout and work spending 13 hr day in my building since I workout at the company's onsite Gym.

    I hope everyone is doing well! I missed posting all of last week but have continued with two-a-days. This week will repeat my pattern for recent weeks: AM trail runs and Supreme 90 (substitute for P90X) strength training on alternating days. PM road bike rides four days a week and two evenings just fast paced walking with my wife. I used to take Sundays off but with the great weather I can't let a weekend day slip by so I'm taking Thursday.

    Well, now that I'm done falling off the planet, I'm in desperate need of some accountability!

    The fiance and I have just moved into a temporary living situation with his parents. I adore them, so that's not an issue - but his dad's obsession with butter/desserts/fried food is! I'm usually able to easily stay on track with my food, but I'm really struggling. My most viable solution at this point is to get back on my exercise and be intense about it.

    Today's plan: 30 Day Shred and Turbo Jam CP3

    Happy Monday - especially since it's a 4 day work week for some!

    Good Morning!

    Yesterday was 30 minutes of Turbo Jam and level 1 of the 30 Day Shred. I had so much energy! I'll be on level 2 starting Friday, so I'm sure I'll feel differently then :) Also, I've ordered Turbo Fire, so I'm super excited to get that! Saving up for Chalean Extreme and my Chalene Johnson collection will be complete. Turbo Jam is really the only thing I've been able to stick with over the years.

    Today's plan: 30 DS and 40 minutes of Turbo Jam

    Happy Wednesday! Only one more work day this week!

    Hi All! I've been neglecting this thread :(

    I started Insanity last week, so far I like it, it is a real butt kick that's for sure. I'm not sure how much I'm burning at it yest because I think it takes a little while to get used to the movements etc. I'm def taking more breaks than the people in the video! Anyway, I'm doing two-a-days three times a week now Monday-wednesday-Friday), Insanity in the mornings, and weights in the evening.

    This weekend I reorganized my dresser and pulled out my summer stuff, and I am glad to say that a bunch of the stuff that didn't fit me last summer fits again! Horray! I will be much happier when it is all loose on me :))))

    Another thing is that starting last week I have (finally) become vigilant about logging all my food. I looked over my diary since January and I realsied that the most logging I've ever done was five days in a row! No wonder I've felt like I'm not making any progress--- I need to be logging everything! SO that is a new challenge for me.

    Hope you all are doing well! Take care,
    Sarah

    Alright...I actually did 3 workouts today...the first one is my C25K training (first day!), the second was playing DDR for an hour on the Xbox 360, and the third was my TurboJam workout (also first day!) I'm super excited for the rest of the day, and I feel very accomplished.

    I was afraid our thread had died! Today, so far, 30 minutes Cardio Dance & 45 minutes of a super excellent running workout! Getting ready to mow, but I don't count that on MFP.
