Black Team Challenge Week 3

How do I go about joining the Black team? I would love to be part of the challenge! :blushing:

PM Bohlon, she's the team leader.

Oh you all gonna hate the spyguy in a couple of weeks lol

mwah....mwahahaha. MMWAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! :devil:

:mad:

I can do anything better than you...

(hehehe) I just had to finish the line. I'm looking forward to it, though. I'm SUCKING at this challenge, though. I had 800+ calories left over for dinner so I chowed & then went, "oops..." as I was looking at the measuring cup on the counter. :ohwell: Sorry, Tresa! Please forgive me! :sad:

That sounds like an awesome Monday, Sam! Keep it up!

*whispers* I snuck a peek at the scale. It better stay there for tomorrow or I'm going to be MAD!

Hey, everyone....LAST CHANCE WORKOUT!!!! I hope you all have sweaty days!

Sam-I love Jon and Kate+8! There were alot of episodes on yesterday that i was lucky to catch! Great job yesterday! when you say free step...is that something thats on the nintendo wii?

Yeah on the Wii there is a free step where you can watch tv and do step. They also have one for free running!

... I love that my cereal has little hearts in it.

Good morning everybody,

I also snuck a peek at the scale and I am so hoping it stays there. I was so proud of myself last night, went to women's fellowship at church and they were having baked potatoes with all the fixings. I had a medium size, the smallest I could find, loaded with broccoli, 1 oz of shredded cheese (had to eyeball it) and put some salsa on top. It wasn't as good as if it would have sourcream and butter but it was okay and after the meal I realized that I didn't even care it was that way. I am finding myself horrible now, I know which people are in the weight loss support group at church with me and it was really hard to keep my mouth shut and say "do you have any idea how many calories you are eating". :noway: I am horrible. I manage to keep it shut though.

Went to water aerobics today, went 1/2 hour earlier and swam laps until it started. I am so out of shape. :sad: It was wonderful, I am so glad I went.

I am also not doing good at this challenge. I measure most things but forget and I hate measuring peanut butter because it makes such a mess. I think I am whining!

Hey all! Hope everyone's week is getting better!

I'm actually at work today, so that's an improvement.

I'm starting to get really down though. Nothing is going right right now and I'm tired of it. I've been on TOM for 3 weeks now and I'm sick of that. have only lost 1 lb this whole challenge and I've actually been doing well until this weekend. I can't do anything short of walking hunched over and in pain. My pain pills make me sick, my muscle relaxers make me sleep. I'm so broke I can't believe it. It's really hard for BF to find a job when we don't have a phone, missed a great opportunity because of that last week. If we had a phone he would have started a new job yesterday. I'm exhausted, I'm stressed out and I just want to crawl in a hole until everything gets better. :sad:

Sorry to lay this out on you guys, I just feel like I'm full to bursting with frusteration at everything that's happening.

Thanks for listening and I really do hopethat everyone has a great week and loses lots of weight! :flowerforyou:

Don't feel so bad....i wish there was a way i could come over there and give you a hug:frown: I know what your going through...DH hasn't had a job in over a month and were fixing to screw up our credit if nothing happens soon. He's going through temp agencies to find work on a daily basis....Has your BF tried that yet? Maybe there is a neighbors phone number you could give out until things get better for you! Hang in there! My heart goes out to you! Your will be in my prayers and thoughts.....:flowerforyou:


I finished my workout...burned 418cals. I did 30day shred level one then T3 totally tubular turbo jam ...i feel better now that its over!

Have a great day everybody!

Thanks guys :blushing:

I would normally ask a neighbor but we live in an apartment building with a not so great crowd and don't know anyone.

He's going to be going through a temp agency soon, the same company that would have hired him starting yesterday has a couple more positions open, but he has to go through a temp agency to get them.. it's complicated and I don't know much about it but I'm really hoping that he has a job by the end of the week.. The only other problem is that his car is all screwed up and never starts even though we just replaced the battery. We'll have to figure that out later though.

Thanks for the kind words, I just get so frusterated sometimes when so many things are going bad and they're out of my control to fix.

Thanks again! I'm hoping I'll be on my feet and working out again by the beginning of next week. Until then, i'll make sure to stay in my calories! :drinker:

Have a great day everybody!

amelia we are at about the same weight. do you have a HRM to tell you exactly how many calories you burned? if so, how many for level 1 on 30 day shred?

Vanessa I hope things get better for you. I know how you feel hubs went through thanksgiving and christmas without a job. Try eating half a cereal bar with your pain medicine. When I had my breast reduction they gave me pain medicine to take home and it made me sick too but the doc said to try a cereal bar with it and it worked. Thank god I didn't need them for every long because the made me sleepy. I went to advil about 3 days after I got home.

Level one on 30 day shred i burned 246 cals....i think it was around 25mins. I can only do like 8pushups on my toes...the rest on my knees and I tried to 'kick my butt' during the butt kicks. I went low during the lunges. So basicly followed the advanced chick. Not bad for 25mins:drinker:

I was calculating 200 calories for it so I wasn't that off. I think I will stick with 200. Thanks for getting back to me on that.

Okay, Sarah, I am impressed that you remembered all of those names!!!

Good job on the exercising, I am not sure that water aerobics is for me, it makes me hungry! :laugh: But I have been good today, very good, I am so proud of myself, this time I will lose this weight because this time I want to lose it for me! Last chance walk, here I came!

Thanks 3babybeans! MY KITTY ALL LARGE. WHOOT.

Also it's a kellogg's cereal called cinnamon that's supposed good for the heart so it has little hearts in it. It's YUMMY and cute to look at. My favorite kind of food. :bigsmile:
