Can I join?

I got my 30 min cardio wave run in on the treadmill and then did one set of upper body reps - I got all excited reading about the pushup challenges going on and thought I try some.....my goal is to work up to 3 reps of something after 30 min of cardio 5 days a week! I'm going to get there and when I do my ticker will be sliding down down down...............can't wait to post tomorrow! Thanks for the support!!!!! I'm going to go chug two glasses of water before bed....can't hurt :drinker:

I just got back from step class! It was great! I was able to raise the step up for the first time today. However, afterwards I noticed that my knee is bugging me a little... so I'll have to keep an eye on that! I'll be doing my push ups a bit later today as well.

Keep movin'!!

I sooo need help! I have not logged in because with all the work I have been doing I am not only not losing weight I GAINED 3 POUNDS in a week! In November I hired a personal trainer & she was great for the month. I follow my routine, count calories & still gained weight! I have an appointment with a dietician on Feb. 12th.

This week I started "weigh-in Wednesdays" at woek as a fundraiser for the school programs. The school nurse told me to eat 1800 calories a day! I told her I eat 1200 & she said I am probably not eating that much so today I made an extra effort to eat all 1200. She will check my food log next week & hopefully something will change.

I know I'm whining but I gained 20 lbs. this year:sad: 9 years ago I lost 40 lbs and kept them off until this year.

Any suggestions? I'm ready to eat what I want and not exercise because I am getting the same results!

I got my workout in today!!! i bought BL cardio max last night and did it today...it was awesome!!!! u are supposed to start with level 1 then after a week or so add level 2 and then add level 3 a couple weeks later....but i did all 3 today and i feel amazing!!!! only $9....so worth it!!! so on to the whole weight loss thing....i havnt lost an ounce in 2 weeks!!:sad: i have been working out hard core 5-6 days a week and staying within my calories...its so disapointing:frown: i just keep on going cause i know i would rather feel great and excercise than be depressed and gain weight.....right???? eventually we will all see results!!! just remember, we didnt gain all of our weight over night so were not gonna lose it over night!!!

oh so i just bought power90!!! in so excited to get it!!!! i will keep u all posted on how it goes!!!!:drinker:


welcome to everybody new!!!:flowerforyou: keep up those workouts!!!

nicole - your workouts sound intense! Keep it up girl, you know it'll all come out in the end!! The BL Cardio sounds like a good deal! I jjust might have to look into that one! They have a big BL display at my Walmart that keep shouting out to me when I walk by! So, maybe I'll treat myself!!

I just got my Polar F6 heart rate monitor!! I cant wait to use it!! TOMORROW!! Because I am so very tired tonight & I've already done my treadmill for 40 minutes + an addt'l 10 (someone's challenge) and I did week 4 day 2 of the hundred push up challenge. So, needless to say, I've had enough for the day!
I'll save it for step class in the morning!

Keep it up people! You're doing great!

Thanks sani
I usually have a "snack at home" (I live with 3 boys so they always have goodies) so that usually takes my "earned cals, but I am eating them at least 4 days of the 7. (My workouts usually SOUND like a good workout, but at the beginning I usually half-*** it, so I know I still need to keep my cals in check until I get the routine down and the lazy exercise mode starts to switch off hehe! At least Im moving tho! lol

I'm sorry you are frustrated and thanks for sharing! Don't neglect logging your food and checking in- we're all here for eachother! :flowerforyou:

I don't know why you are gaining weight, but I'm happy you are seeing a nutritionist. My 2 cents is that you should change up your work out and don't forget to increase your CALORIES and your WATER. Eat plenty of veggies (green) and whole grains and lean meat or beans/rice for protein. Please keep us updated and don't give up! ps if you consume alcohol cut that too.
