    I’ve had yet another gain, I’ve toyed with idea of coming off Group as have had such a bad December and not lost anything however my heads in the game and I’ve rejoined slimming world online (is that ok to be on here whilst on that plan?)

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8NzhNe9Res
    )

    3 sets
    • First set till the point where you can do no more, wait 2 mins
    • Second set of 50% of the number you did in the first set (half)
    • Third set

    The reason for this exercise is push ups and dips work primarily the triceps (pushing). This exercise balances the others by working the biceps (pulling).

    Hello Everyone!
    I am Phoebe and new to this challenge group, but not new to challenges. I was on a Biggest Loser Challenge team last Spring and it was a great experience. I reached my goal weight.... not for the first time. I just never stay there. Uhg. So, here I am again, and I am going to lose 20 pounds and then I am going to learn how to do maintenance! For real. I love the New Year, it is a great time to start afresh, keeping the good things I learned from the past year, and moving on from the not so good.

    About me: I am 49 years old, happily married, mom of two teen boys, have a career, love to work out when I am not railroaded by injuries. I am all about giving and getting support, and being accountable. That is the only way I have found to be successful.

    Jan 1
    Exercise: yes, and did the door rows without pulling down my doorframe
    Tracking: yes
    Calories: yes, I am totally on it!

    Let's Go Team Gutbusters!!!

    Hello guys! I am so happy to be back again, and once again join the Team Gutbusters. November and December has been bad months for me, with no exercise and no healthy food. So I gained about 10 lbs.

    But I am back and 2018 will be my year! I am turning 40, I want this to be my new start, and beginning of an amazing journey!

    I live in Norway, married and have two kids 4 and 6 years old. I have struggeled with my weight for years, but I hope I will finally get rid of it all this year.

    Managed to get wife out for a walk today. Only 1km in the forest (at her pace), but it is a good re-start. She has been most sedentary for too long.

    My walk was it's normal pace (quick).
