Morning everyone: I had a well deserved rest last night and I'm feeling so energized.
I'll be inputting my miles/minutes in sometime today. Also I'm 2 out of 5 days with staying under calories I should be under today making it 3 days in total so far. Plus completed challenge 2 yesterday.
A quick update we are currently 6th place by a large margin and 35% to our destination, we have 4 days to complete this journey which I know we can do. COME ON TEAM 3!
Question: Any February goals?
Hope you all have a fab day x

Morning Team,
For those who are not well this week, hope you all feel better soon!
For those that are on the mend, woo hoo!
Yes, we have a way to go before getting to the finish line, but I know we can do this!
I've been following @alipsie19's lead and doing some sort of workout in the morning. I do just a mini one, 10-15 min low impact/stretching nothing crazy. It helps start my day, and adds to the minutes!
Challenge 1 completed last night, 3/5 days logging! Plan is to finish 5k/3mile walk outside on the weekend.
@change04- goal for February is keep on doing what I'm doing. Stay consistent with logging, C25K and the strength routine that I am following.2 -
I didn't get in as much exercise as I wanted to yesterday but Wednesdays I work both jobs so I am pretty tired at the end of the day. I didn't get my steps in but I managed to do the videos. I am so uncoordinated….lol.
@change04 - My February goal is at least 60,000 steps per week, lose 9.2 lbs (so that I hit wonderland), read a leadership book (I am reading 7 Habits of Highly Effective People), hug my son for 5 minutes a day, learn 2 chords on the guitar (I have been procrastinating on this goal for months), and moisturize every day.
QUESTION OF THE DAY: If you were trapped on a deserted island and could only have an unlimited supply of 5 healthy foods with you, what would they be?

Just popping in to say you all are AWESOME! This morning we was on 35% and now we are on 52% to our destination. Come on Team 3!! let's kick butt and enjoy sometime at the beach and a little sightseeing would be nice
Remember it's not the coming first that counts but the taking part and completing each challenge.
@EternalTruth I'll answer that question soon need to think about this one expescially seeing that it's only 5 unlimited healthy item's3 -
Hey all! Finally have time to be back here and active now that the homework load has lightened for a bit ^-^
I hope everyone who is feeling sick or in recovery mode keeps on making progress toward getting better!
My fav snack is also definitely air popped popcorn, though sometimes when I'm feeling like a treat I'll layer on some olive oil or melted butter. My favorite peaceful moment...hmm...probably when I'm painting without any plans for the day, so I can just go at whatever speed I like. Also, my goals this month are to stay consistent with lifting to increase my muscle mass.
@skinnyjeanzbound You'll have to keep us updated on how you like your fitbit! I've been debating getting that same model, so I'd like to know if you think it's worth it.
Today was going to be a weight lifting day (I usually cycle the days I do weights vs cardio), but I'm feeling fairly bleh due to cramps, so I might just do some light cardio for a bit. We shall see.
@alipsie19 You're killin it with these routines!! My body hurts just looking at it.

@EternalTruth - My 5 healthy foods:
Salmon or some type of fish
Spinach
Almonds (dark chocolate covered preferably)
Blueberries or some other type of fruit
Popcorn
Funny thing is that I'm not trapped on an island and this is pretty much all I eat now.3 -
@EternalTruth -- My 5 foods:
asparagus
roasted red pepper hummus
boneless skinless chicken breast
pomegranate
70% cacao dark chocolate (if that's not healthy enough, then peanut butter)3 -
Evening all...
I thought I would give a status update for myself....I have journaled for 3 days so far this week and I have walked 2 miles outside.
Feeling pretty good about the week so far...3 -
I came here to announce that I had finished all three challenges this week!
As the page was loading I realized today is Thursday and not Friday for five days logging and that I have another day of work.... sigh... . But the dancing is done and so it 3+ miles this week outside in 15F weather (cold but beautiful). I only need one more day under goal with the logging.
Daily question- Peaceful relaxation, if I was being virtuous I would say walking outside with a podcasts. I do enjoy that and do it everyday, but the real answer is binge watching a whole season of TV while knitting.
5 healthy foods on an island-
Sweet potato
broccoli
pork
cheese
dark chocolate and strawberries
Not that I like the combo but needed strawberries on the list too. On the island I'll have time to pick them apart to consume separately.

@skinnyjeanzbound, thank you for pointing out that is a "real" way of running. I already knew I wasn't changing my ways a so it's nice to have the validation. At that point I am dead. D.E.A.D. but a minute of walking and my lungs start working again and I'm good to go.1

QUESTION OF THE DAY: It's time to expand the mind... what new activity/hobby would you love to learn that doesn't involve rigorous physical activity?
I am inching so close to my milestone of losing 100 lbs, just 0.8 lbs to go!
I realized I haven't been answering my own questions of the day. So new physical activity would be zip lining, peaceful moment is snuggling my son and chatting about his day, and my five foods would be raspberries, carrots, protein bars, cheese strings, and broasted chicken.
My big hike this week is going to be on Sunday which I am looking forward too even though it is going to be quite cold.
I hope you all have a truly amazing day!!!

5 foods:
Wheat bread
Eggs
Chicken
Watermelon
Sweet potatoes
(It's what I eat all of the time plus my favorite fruit )
I would love to learn to sing harmony. I was actually in a singing group for 13 years but I always sang Soprano. I could only sing alto if I didn't know the song and just learned the alto part.
My mom, grandma and daughter are awesome at singing harmony but I just can't hear the notes.5 -
