Hi!
So good to see changes in so many people! There is a place where the new weight of the group was posted? I cant find it...0 -
Burned 1083 calories today doing running/walking intervals for 98 minutes which bring my count to ...... 3627 calories burned this week so far!
That's AWESOME!
Thanks! Gotta get in my outdoor cardio before I move to a place that's a lot less temperate and I can't go outside to exercise until October!0 -
Only burned 279 today. Too sore from the rest of the week. Will do better over the weekend.0

Good morning Reigners!
~TheresaRichards~ Aww, thank you. Please, call me Tish. I think it's wonderful that what I do motivates you. That's what it's all about, helping each other to reach our goals.
~toofat2toofit~ Woohoo, I have Turbo Jam in hand now. I'll give it a test drive this weekend.
~Viruetwife2012~ I'm certain the 2 lbs is water weight. Your body will get used to increased exercise. In the meantime, make sure you stretch and have some protein after a strenuos workout. Every morning you coould add up to 2 TBS of lemon juice to a glass of water to help excrete excess fluid.
~scsedey143~ WOOT! Congrats!
Have a fantastic Saturday Purple!

I ran my 18th half marathon this morning and I am working really hard to not go crazy eating since I burned 2.040 calories! Water, water, water! (I did allow myself one beer, though. It was the last one in the fridge - not buying any more!)
Hope everyone's having a great weekend!!!!0 -

Good Morning Reigners!
~scsedey143~ You're welcome, YOU did it! BIG POTB (pat on the back) for yourself.
~zukekitty~ Now I know that you are competitive. haha I stayed up late too to get that 500 burned. WTG!
~stylelush646~ So sorry about your mom. I have been there and more. You still have to consider yourself though. Take care, do give it your best shot.
~spaingirl2011~ Fantastic week total!
~TheresaRichards~ You know what I like seeing the most from your Friday and Saturday exercise? S T R E T C H I NG ! I feel like that is truly giving your body love & respect for what it is allowing you to do.
~Viruetwife2012~ It'll happen. If you have increased your exercise substantially this past week from what you normally do, your body is adjusting.
~runningathena~ WOOHOO! on completing your 18th! half marathon. I think you definately earned a beer.
~usmcwifeb15~ You burned a LOT of calories, WTG! I see that all of your workouts exercised your thigh muscles a lot. Those are big muscles and they love to hold fluid after hard workouts. After your rest day, you may have to take one extra day of light activity. Walking (not too strenuous) and stretching those quads and hammies should help release the fluid. It helps me.
Ugh, I'm tired this morning. What to do today for exercise? My body is whining, "I'm tired" my brain is saying "GO HARD!" Mmmm, compromise?
Purple Reign was AWESOME on the calorie burn challenge! Push your body to the limit (it can take it) but not over the brink!
GO PURPLE!

Worried by how i'm feeling this morning that I caught my husband's bad cold. I sure don't want to let up now. I haven't even lost a pound yet and want to get there! And more.0

New to the PURPLE TEAM! I'm super excited!!!
Just kicked my own booty and burned 800 calories - 12mile bike and 2 mile run!!!
I am determined to get this weight off!!!0 -
So, I'm feeling pretty good about my resolve right now, but last week was pretty awful. I was PMSing badly and inhaled food for a day - and managed to undo all the good work I did in the week. Today I'm back to my starting weight, 71.8kg (Aussies weigh in kilos, sorry), and I'm starting again. A bit frustrating, but it teaches me a lesson - it takes 15 minutes to eat a bucket of chips and three days to burn them off. Silly girl.
I am loving this mini challenge though, 500 cals a day through exercise feels great! Looking forward to see what challenge Wednesday brings

Hello purple team! hope everyone had a fabulous weekend. I went home to the country to visit my mom, I live in Nova Scotia Canada. She bakes wicked tea biscuit, well needless to say I worked out for a couple of hours burned 1414 calories which should put me in the good. lol. No more tea biscuits. Also worked out 7 days this week may take a day off in the upcoming week. So managed to burn over 500 calories each day during the 7 days. Looks as though my team did pretty well too. Have a great week all.0

Okay Team- Need a little motivation and am hoping that the next challenge kicks my butt into gear. I went out of town this weekend and undid a bunch of the work that this week's challenge did for me. I got off the plane a worked out tonight, but jsut couldn't make it to the 500 goal. So, for the end of this week the total calories burned are 2271. Better than two weeks ago which isn't much.
You are all an inspiration in the focus that you continue to show.0 -
Since this time last week, we're up to 3,867 calories burned. Pretty damn happy with that. Hoping this next week I can burn off what I put back on over the weekend and then some.0
