    Kim is saying she's going to come in first and Jayme has already lost 6.8 lbs this week?! Maybe I should get off my behind and go get on the elliptical, but I'll be honest. I hate working out.

    Mae

    Yep, I think you better!!!

    Alright, fine. I'll do the dumb elliptical. *sigh* :wink:

    I've not weighed myself today because this morning was manic. I'll weigh myself on Monday morning as I'm away again this weekend - I hope that's ok. I really didn't think I'd end up being away from home so much over the course of this challenge.

    Alternatively I weighed myself yesterday, you can use that if you want, I was 174.8 - which is a gain, but I had to carb load for a 5km race I was doing last night, and as much as I hate saying it to hell with the slightish weight gain right now, because I ran a personal best of 23.58 which a lot faster than the 25.21 I did in the same race last year. Thank god for MFP, I recently realised I was NOT eating enough for the amount of training I was doing, and now I am usually losing some weight on a weekly basis and I feel fitter and stronger than ever before. So it is possible I'll get the boot from this challenge this week, but Monday I'll be back to giving it 100% xx

    I weighed 174ish this morning which is very good...however, the weekend is upon us. This is my work weekend and that will be a very good thing for me to keep snacking and alcohol consumption in check.

    I wanted to do my C25K run today but the weather is not co-operating. I don't mind running in the rain; but, a thunderstorm is another thing. I will start the Jillian DVDs today either way, maybe hop on the elliptical.

    PEACE :flowerforyou:

    Are you doing the 30 day shred or the 30 day slimdown?

    Mea said shred that's where i got that from, and 30 day Shred is the one i have. but i think it is a good idea to do what ever 30 day video you have.

    July 15 Shred #1

    That would be fun to do a video challenge. i don't really have a video, I just wanted to give kim a hard time, but we could do that. What day do you want to start? You can do whatever one you want!

    Peeps :flowerforyou:

    I was attacked by a bottle of skinny margaritas last night - or - was it the other way around? :huh:

    No worries, tho, I will be back on track today. Don't you just have days like that? Where you can't get enough to eat, you just have a nagging hunger. THAT, was my day yesterday! I decided it was slurge day and rolled with with it.

    Today is Day 2 of the Slimdown. I really feel Day 1 today and I like the soreness 'cause it means the old body is still has potential. I was impressed with my girly pushups. I think I was able to get about 20 done with some sort of style and composure.

    Tomorrow is weigh-in, I'm excited!!! I'll post in the morning before work!
  • OMG i think Jillian tried to kill me with jumping Jacks!!!

    I haven't done these tapes for about a year and I was surprised at how well I was able to get thru them. Today, tho, I'm moving very gingerly and feeling every muscle whince. Here comes Day 2...

    ARGH! I forgot to weigh in this morning before I ate a HUGE breakfast. So, this is my one screw up...I am sorry! I will post my weight first thing in the morning. So so sorry!

    Down 3 lbs!!

    Mae, is your weight up from breakfast so that it would effect your weigh-in? Maybe just wait until it settles and try later.

    Today, I will do No More Trouble Zones...however, I feel like all my troubles zones are painful this morning. Yesterday, I did Shred #1, 50 minutes including C25K and 30 minutes swimming with the kids. I am exhausted.

    Hope everyone is having a great week!!
  • Mae your good girl weigh in, in the am i know that eating then weighing in can affect your real number. dont worry

    i posted my pic as my profile pic, i am changing it now, if you want to see it i will have it under my pics in my profile.

    274.4 today.

    I still haven't heard from teanabean. If I don't hear by noon EDT today I will assume she withdrew and that will be this week's elimination.

    Bless, I've only just read this, thanks, I was pretty chuffed this morning to only be 0.4 pounds up, I was pretty sure things were going to be pretty grim with TOM coming as well!!!
