So does your week begin on end on Sunday? Mine ends on Sunday. I tend not to work as hard on the weekends, so I felt that I was always catching up when I started with Sat or Sun. Now, I just glide though weekends.

Yesterday, I went for a 45 min bike ride and a 40 minute walk. Today, we are going to try to do a 2 hour ride - we really should start training for our ride in March.

Have a great workout today!

    Way to go on your workouts, Mary! Hope you get your extended bike ride in!

    My weeks start & end on Friday. I like to 'weigh in' on Friday because I take one day a week where I don't count/log calories and that is usually on the weekend. By having that day as far away from my weigh in day as possible I have a better chance of taking care of any damage I may have done. Last week was my first week really back to logging food and exercising and I lost 5.5lbs. I was happy with that. Anyway, only bike last week... adding the treadmill and planning to throw in a few workout dvd's where I can this week. I ran for 7 minutes this morning. Gotta start somewhere! Already feeling stronger, better, & faster! THANKS for letting me jump back in ladies!!!

    Have a SUPER SUNDAY and a FABULOUS week!
    +++POSITIVE THOUGHTS+++!!!

    Mary, happy biking!
    Niccole congrats on your weight loss!
    Today is my cheat day for the week. We usually go out to eat on Sundays after church, so that will be a no count day. I stayed within calories yesterday! Yay! I looked in the mirror a little bit ago and realized that my double chin has gotten really big. I don't mean that just to be critical but I can really see just how much weight I have gained. So it is motivation to do well this week.
    I guess I start my weeks on Mondays though I've never really thought about it. So my goals for this coming week:
    drink my water (all of it daily)
    count calories and stay close to 1400
    work out (which all I want to do is wii run, push ups and sit ups. I need to do more than that.)
    Weather should be nice so maybe I can get some walking in this week. I want to kick this allergy cold thing this week too.
    Enjoy the rest of the weekend!

    I just finished an hour long yoga DVD. . .it's too nasty outside to go to the yoga studio (also, I get so cold on the way home that it defeats the whole "hot" part of the yoga. ..

    Hadn't done this particular video in ages, and I noticed I am much more flexible...it's always so good to see some progress.:flowerforyou:

    I start my week on Sunday. I spend some time and "reboot", so I'm ready for Monday.:flowerforyou:

    I personally workout more on the weekends because, as Im not at my job which is fairly physically active, I need to burn those extra cals as I dont want to simply starve myself (which isn't a good alternative to exercise).
