Turbo Team!! xx

Elbee - Welcome back!! I would say that if your back is bothering you, don't do TJ until you feel better, or do it no impact and stop if you start to hurt at all. I am sorry that things went downhill and you were sick while you were gone. I am working on finishing up school, so that has been my life this past week, and will be, at least for today, so no workouts lately for me.

Wow! Where'd everyone go? Is the Turbo Team challenge over?
I did Turbo Jam Cardio Party today.

I have been allowing myself to be lax in my calories and working out because of the end of school. I am working on my last assignment right now, and I really want to start working out again. I am a little scared because it has been almost two weeks of not working out, and I am worried about how bad I am going to be at it.
Once I turn in this assignment (it is due tuesday) the only thing that I will have going on is my job search, and spring cleaning, which will get me up and moving. So I hope to be back in the next couple of days being able to say that I have worked out. I think I am going to concentrate on getting in workouts instead of what I am eating, at least to start with, so I can concentrate on one thing at a time.

Well, the two workouts every day has already failed, but I did keep my calories down close to 1500, which for me is a major accomplishment all by itself. :-) I've mostly switched from TJ to CLX (although I would do more TJ if I really did two workouts a day), and I'm still working on C25K on the elliptical. I'm up to 5K (3 mi) for distance, so now I'm working on getting the time down to 30 minutes. My record is 38.5 minutes. It's bike riding season, and there's a new bike trail that I want to try out next weekend, so I hope to be riding my bike a lot more, too.

My new favorite tv series is Drop Dead Diva, with Brooke Elliot as a skinny blonde model who died and came back to life in the body of a fat brunette lawyer. We just finished watching season 2 and are eagerly awaiting season 3.

I think we're in about week 11 (??), and I'm not really ready for before and after photos, but I've lost 14 pounds and--way more importantly--I've kept going and kept on track for much longer than I would have without you. You've saved me many hundreds of calories and made me push play on a lot of days when it would have been easier not to.

Hey guys! Sorry I've been missing. I have good news. I have now been a non-smoker for 3 weeks! So as a gift to myself, I bought turbo fire. I get it in one week. So u should really see me then. I'm gonna try and get back into logging my stuff in here this week hopefully. But next week ill post my new starting measurements. I hope everyone has been having fun!

we should start it together. i just got mine today. i'm not opening it yet cuz i just got off work and have to sleep so I can go back to work tonight but i plan on starting tomorrow!!

ok so It's saturday. I just woke up cuz I'm a day sleeper. I'm gonna do my first turbo fire workout tonight. It'll probably count towards sunday cuz it'll most likely be after midnight. I got things to do before the sun goes away. hemlock- I hope your with me!! We can do it!!

Glynis- Congrats on quitting smoking, I am still working on it, and my goal is to get turbo fire once I do quit.

Hemlock - you can do it! It is scary to get started back with cardio after stopping for a bit.

It seems that people are coming back to this thread, and I think it is fantastic!!

One of my favorite shows is starting again tomorrow, White Collar, and I am excited for that.
Have a great Monday!

Fire 30 and Stretch 10 today. Thanks for being such good influences!! I was in some kind of I-can't-do-it--it's-too-hard funk, so thanks for making me see how silly I was being. :-)

CLX nsv--I can do burpees!! I'm sure they're not graceful, but I can totally do them!! I'm sure that's a result of CLX, b/c I could not do them when I tried in Feb.

I have fallen off the wagon and am struggling to get back on, but I am still trying.

Glynis - a burpee is when you start standing, then bend your knees and put your hands on the floor, and then jump your feet back so you are in a plank position, then jump your feet back by your hands, stand up and repeat. I always feel very ungraceful when I am doing those.

Have a nice Monday everyone!
