Sisterhood HCP Week 2

I lost 1 lb and have met first mini-goal of reaching my pre-preg weight!

TERRAW....HAPPY BIRTHDAY this week!! Don't know what day it is...but hey!! We wish you the best on your very special day!!
So, the scale wasn't my friend today...don't know why, but it said I gained :sad: :brokenheart:
Sorry team, don't know what happened...but we're forging ahead!!
Have a blessed day

The reason I asked is that one of the workouts I do for the P90X is an hour and 1/2 of yoga!!! Not, I haven't made it any further than about 40 mins yet! I'm like you, I don't have the paitence. To me though it's not much of a cardio workout. When I put in my excerise on here it only gave me like 120 calories burned for 30 mins! I really need to get a heart rate monitor so I can see exactly how much it does!

First off didnt realize new thread was started so i copied and pasted what i wrote :bigsmile:

I weighed in and low and behold another 2 pounds gone from my body hopefully forever. :drinker: Of course for a moment i was a tad discouraged why only 2 i did my excercise i ate right? :sad: and i know on the biggest loser week 2 is the bad week (although bad for them is 5 pounds right lol :laugh:) although i got to say right now 2 doesnt seem so bad :smooched: that is two pounds off of me, 2 pounds i care never to see again. it could have been one it could have been none but it was 2 :bigsmile: So i embrace my 2 pounds lost this week :flowerforyou: I embrace my 4 pounds lost so far and i know that slow and steady wins the race so i am the tortois i embrace being the tortois because if i dont then i will give up and i refuse to give up this time :bigsmile:


Be the tortois embracing the two pounds from this week and the 4 from the total 14 days so far but its the motivation and support that gets me through this that gives me this attitude so thank you all :flowerforyou:

I do at least 30 minutes on the treadmill at 3.5 and i burn at least 329 calories doing it if that helps once the weather is nice i plan on also going bike riding outside (it burns A LOT of calories) yoga is good i tried it long time ago and felt it but i get wanting to burn more calories and working up a sweat.

My cardio consists of different workout dvd's that I can do in the home because I live in Alaska and can't really do regular workouts in the outdoors during the winter time. In the summer we go for walks, bike rides, and hikes... Alaska is beautiful!!! I also play volleyball for 4-5 hours a week, which is why I think I'm burning so many calories-MFP says around 1700 every 2 hours, if it's accurate.

That's what's really helps me....if you can find a high intensity activity that you like to do then you don't think about it as "working out" it's just fun! I guess In Alaska you could run sprints from the wood pile to the fire place.....just get one log at a time so you have to make more trips!

The summer time makes up for the horrible winter here. We literally get around 23 hours of "sunlight" during the summer, so we make up for being cooped up as much as we can.
