    sillymetwo, I have to reboot too. What did you decide on?

    nikkib0103, I am going to use the older firm classic workouts with weights 3 days a week and on alternate days Billy Blancs tae bo workouts. Once I get into better shape, then ease into Jillian Michael's body shred, revolution or t25. In 2012 I did GM body revolution, but quit on the 4th week because I had pulled a back muscle, but not from the exercise. It was something really stupid like turning my body the wrong way. Go figure…

    I’ll be cutting back on calories, too. My calorie intake will depend on the amount of exercise I get. Probably around 1350 to 1550. Tomorrow is the big start day!

    Today I decided to squeeze in an extra walk as I am going to be pushed tomorrow timewise. I ended up with 21 boxes of cat food and had to call for a lift home.....
    If that doesn't make sense - I hoofed it to the shops.....for some greeting cards....saw an offer on cat food, forgot i was on foot and bought 21 boxes. Makes sense now, huh?

    I did The Firm and Tae Bo a number of years ago. I really loved Tae Bo. I wish the original beginner tapes were on DVD. I would order them in a heart beat. I don't have a VCR anymore... I would be interested in hearing how you progress in these classic workouts.

    I desperately want to come in under my calorie target today but I am going out with some work friends for a tour of a brewery and more drinks and food afterwards.
    Don't want to be a party pooper but it's gonna be hard

    Sounds like that could be a tough one.. Hope it goes ok :)

    Yeah, that was tough and didn't go too well.

    On the plus side it was the most fun I've had in ages.

    Good for you.. Life has too have some fun :)

    Got in 16,193 steps so far by 11 am.

    Now I have calorie room for a good lunch with plenty still burnt off

    A good day!

    Today I just want to come in under goal. I did my walk, had my breakfast, a good snack, plan a healthy lunch and dinner. If I can manage this it will be enough to make me happy.

    Good goals for everyone! It helps to share because it gives me ideas and focus for my own goals.
    Today, I already went to my spin class this morning. Now I need to find a healthy lunch, since I ran out of time to pack one. And then, after work, I'll be going to the gym to run.

    Did 45 minutes of Vipr today, then 15 minutes of Core work. Since it's a class, if I don't do what everyone else does, it's weird. So yes, I did what I set out to do !!!

    2 of 3..
    Never made it to the old gym.
    Did walk at lunch, and did 35 min of cardio at the gym.
    Upper body exercises, and then home.

    You had a great start with your spin class. Did you also go for a run?
