    Hey! Looking forward to being a part of this challenge. I was away all weekend so I plan on starting my week as of today. I plan on going to the gym at least 3 times and getting a good 2 hour walk in. I will also be drinking 5 24oz water bottles per day!

    What are other people's plans for the week???

    @brittanydashnay I love a good long walk!
    I am in several fitness challenges this month, so my plans are to get through those this week AND focus on re-establishing my IF window for success.

    Hello Fellow Stay Fitters:

    I have done the following workouts:

    Friday 9/1: 45 mins walking
    Saturday 9/2: 65 mins walking
    Sunday 9/3: 136 mins walking (I broke this up in two sessions.)

    Water was good for Friday and Sunday. Saturday I was a little under.

    I will post my exercise/water stats on my newsfeed, if I don't post here all the time.

    Water done for the day! No workout as the gym was closed and it was raining. I'm making arrangements to have someone watch the baby tomorrow so I can go to the gym the next 3 days! I'm determined to get my workouts in!

    Halfway done my water!
    Reached my lowest weight so far (post partum).
    I'm liking the scale this week!

    I've made arrangements for a babysitter for the next 3 days so i have no excuses to not go to the gym!

    Hello everyone,

    I'm so happy to find such a motivated group! You all are amazing!

    My plan is to get in 3x gym workouts + running (oh, I hate running). I also take hip hop and dancehall classes on the weekends for 90-minutes each class as my fun workouts.

    Here's my log so far:
    • Friday, 9/1: 20-minute treadmill; 3 sets of each 15 TRX body row, 15 kettlebell squats, 1-min plank, 15 calf raises

    • Saturday, 9/2: active recovery with foam roller and stretches

    • Sunday, 9/3: 2.0 mile outdoor run at 11 mph; 3 sets of each 20 pushups, 20 air squats, 20 back squats with 9-lb bar, 20 assisted chin ups, 20 assisted dips, 20 calf raises

    • Monday, 9/4: Rest day, Shopping Day--my favorite day

    • Tuesday, 9/5: 2.0 mile outdoor run at 12 mph; 3 sets of each 20 pushups, 20 dips, 20 air squats

    To make my water intake more interesting, I drink cucumber water (I slice cucumbers and put them in my Brita pitcher). Other times, I drink sparkling water with either lemon or lime.

    I wish you all a healthy rest of the week. Let's keep up the good work!

    Good week so far. Getting at least 40 minutes of treadmill time each day. Need to focus on improving my water intake, but I'm controlling the "teacher" stress pretty well. Love this group!
