    Great job Sanifrey!!! I know it sure motivates me to see other people actually achieving results.
    I went to the Y today and did 20 minutes on the treadmill and 30 minutes in the pool. I think I really like lap swim, I may do that more often.

    Have a great day!

    Thank you, thank you , thank you!!

    I'm just so happy to see these results!! I just hope that I can keep it up. I've been making my workouts a little more intense, working out longer, harder & faster. The problems is that my knees are bothering me now! So do I work through the pain or pull it back a little bit? It just feels so good to be able to KICK IT, ya know?? But, it would be really bad to injur myself & have to stop all together.. what ya think??

    After gaining more weight since I started (in January) I finally lost a pound!!! I found out that I was starving myself. I thought I was eating about 1200 calories a day and the school nurse told me to check because I should be losing weight at 1200. Turns out at the end of the day I had about 200 calories left! For 1 week I forced myself to eat the full 1200 cals & it worked!!!

    Congrats to you!! Keep up the good work!!

    Today, I did the BL Cardio Max & then hopped on the treadmill for a 40minute program. 753 calories burned!! I feel pretty good. My knees aren't too bad. I was really conscience of my form & intensity so as to avoid injury! We'll see how I feel as the evening progresses!!

    Keep Movin'!! :drinker:

    I have done 20 minutes on the bowflex this morning and 12 on the bike. i just did a 20 min basic aerobics workout. I was going to do the dance aerobics that is on after it's also 20 min. I should have taken a break. I couldn't get past ten. My heart rate was so high on my HRM I thought it would explode. I'll try that one again tomorrow. I have 30 minutes on the bowflex tonight with DH and then 30 on gazelle this afternoon.

    I went back to work today and worked my butt off. It has been the start of a bad week and this is just my first day back. 8 people in my department got laid off, including my best friend that is also pregnant. That just made me feel blah. I lost a pound this week so I guess I shouldn't complain too much. I have eaten like a horse because of stress and all that. I am hoping for this week to hurry up and end!

    Jaelle - so sorry to hear about your fall!! You poor girl! You get better soon ya hear!! :wink:

    Well, I've been sick, sick, sick these last couple of days! I spent Wednesday night barfing my guts out & then Thursday night, while still recovering I got to help my toddler barf her guts out!! My husband says he's not feeling well today.. I feel like my house has the plague!! I don't know if it's a virus or maybe the peanut butter thing!! I've really not been very careful with that warning so it could be! Anyway, I think I'm going to take it easy again today & hopefully by tomorrow I can get back into it!!

    But, I just wanted to check in to see how everyone was getting along! Keep up the good work & keep movin'!!

    i got my workout in today!! i did 1 hour on the treadmill....incline at 9, alternating running at 5.5 and walking at 3.0!!!! at the beginnning of this week i was very discouraged cause i havnt lost any weight in a while, i still havnt lost any but i have decided that my weight will not control my actions....I WILL CONTROL MY ACTIONS!!!! and in the long run I WILL WIN, not my weight!!! i wrote that on my mirror, so i can see it everyday and remember it!!! I challenge everyone else to do the same!!! Come on, we CAN all do this together!!!! good luck and keep on movin!!!!
