    Morning! I posted this in the other thread.

    Yesterday I worked out for 1hr 15 min. Based on my HRM I burned 700 calories. (15 min elliptical and 60min cardio class)

    I had a terrible day at work and snacked quite a bit and pretty much needed to burn that many calories to balance things off.

    I’m not going to do that today. I will not let work get to me that I feel the need to snack.

    Morning!

    I didn't step on the scale (going to try only once a week). Yesterday, I stayed w/in my given calories...did 30 minutes of pilates and 30 minutes of BL Cardio Blast. I managed to get in all of my water too...woohoo! WTG everyone:flowerforyou:

    I really dont want to weigh in everyday but I can check in everyday. Today I did my bellies booties and biceps class and burned 375 calories. My arms are sore from all the weights, planks and pushups. I actually did 25 pushups today of course they were on my knee. I have to start somewhere. I will do my weight on Wed because that is when I do it for the biggest loser challenge. Yesterday I burned a total of 676 calories between step/interval class and the Wii LOL. I usually dont count the Wii but I wanted to see how much I burned and in 18 minutes I burned 126 calories. Now I have an excuse to play it LOL. I also got in 80 ozs of water yesterday and I am up to 40 ozs already today.

    Ok. Got a lil distracted.:laugh:

    Imagine that.

    I re-started my faithful calorie watching several days ago and stepped on the scale first thing this morning. Down 1 lb.:bigsmile:

    That's progress, I think, with only 8 lbs left to drop.:ohwell:

    Did Jillian Michaels 30 Day shred,30 minutes of yoga on Wii Fit and 400 crunches.

    I stayed within my calories.:drinker:

    Going to aim for the same today.

    I weighed myself this morning for the first time since before the holidays. I think I had way too many cookies. :ohwell: The scales this morning said 136 and I don't like that. :angry:

    I started logging my calories and my workouts yesterday for the start of the new year and I have been very good about doing it today. I will be working out more too.

    Well -- after reading everyone else's reports on exercise, I am not sure how you all do it!!!

    I am checking in and am happy to report that the scale is down half a pound since yesterday- and I know it is probably water, but still, a smaller number is a smaller number.

    I did a 30 minute exercise video this am before stepping foot out of the door and was pretty proud-- i am NOT an exerciser!!!!!!!!!!!

    Keep up the good work everyone!

    Did 5 miles for the first time in years! Not all at a run, but I'm getting there...slowly. Didn't get on the scale this AM, so not sure if there's a change.
    Anyone got a cure or remedy for shin splints? They are starting up again. Don't want to be banished to the bike for two months again.
    Did good at logging everything too, so I was proud of myself.

    I was so not an exerciser back in August when I started this and now I try to get some form of exercise every day and I love it now. I even did a 5K last week which I cant wait to do another one now. If you stay consistent with it you will like and it and even miss it when you dont do it. I look forward to the gym now.

    Good morning all,

    Last night I did about 75 minutes of indoor roller skating. The exercise calculator says that a little over 700 calories burned (sounds high to me though).

    I was a bit of a clutz yesterday. First, sitting at the table, I leaned back a little bit to look at something and then my chair fell backwards! I knocked my knee on the table, over stretched my shoulder and just laid there a minute. :sad:

    Then after roller skating, I jumped in the shower, slipped and fell out of the tub! :embarassed: Hurting my other shoulder. What next!?

    All is good today though.

    Supposed to do my run/walk program today. I have a doctor apt. so we'll see if I have enough energy afterwards to do it.

    I took Wifey out to eat for her B-Day and had grilled chicken breast with rice and a salad. I ordered a glass of water also. I stayed under my calories.

    I worked out this morning (my back sounded like a bowl of rice krispies during my streching) but did not eat breakfast and it is almost lunchtime. I was so busy this am that I have not drank any water either.

    Hope everyone else is kicking it.
    :flowerforyou:

    PS I C more people joined today....cool.

    Checking in late .... well I was up about a pound this morning.:sick:

    But, I'm okay I ate underneath my calories yesterday, but ate dinner at 11 p.m. because of a late meeting ~volunteer stuff. No excercise or much water either. I also think the day Sunday, where I slightly overdid it is catching up to me!

    ~That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

    Today is going swimmingly and I going to excercise right now!
    Goood luck all for tomorrow.

    Going to find a place that does the gait analysis to find out if it's the shoes--probably time for a new pair either way. I've logged quite a few miles in my current pair.
    Great website too. Thanks for the find! I'd surely be happy with the massages. Now to try and sweet talk the wife...I may be getting her a new pair of shoes too after that though. haha

    I lost a pound....cant weigh in until tomorrow.

    I'm only weighing in on Fridays (I can tend to obsess about that scale) but I did 45 minutes of Pilates last night, stayed under my calories and drank all my water.

    Today is good so far. I had lunch with a friend today and we had sushi. I found it in the database but there was definitely some guessing involved. Hopefully I didn't do too bad. I'm half way through my water and I plan to do 45-60 minutes of cardio on the treadmill tonight and then about 35 minutes of yoga.

    I can't believe how much exercise some of you guys fit into a day, you rock! Something to strive for, thanks for the motivation.

    So....I'm good to go...and to wind down tonight...I'm watching Biggest Loser, can't wait!

    Hi Everyone and Welcome! :smile:

    I am only going to log my weight on Mondays...as I tend to watch the scale too much, and that will help keep me accountable over the weekends...:grumble:

    I maintained over the holidays, which is good...:drinker:

    Yesterday I did 15 min on the elliptical as a warm up for a strength class at the Y, and stayed well within my calories.

    Today, hasn't been as great due to a headache, but did get in a little on the elliptical and have eaten healthy all day.

    See everyone tomorrow...and hopefully I'll notice this earlier in the day...:huh:
