Week 5, let's go!!! I've got 2 weeks (and 1 day!) to get to my mini goal for my birthday I have 3.4 lbs!!
As always I'll get the emotional and recipe challenge out of the way, here we go!
Emotional Challenge:
What excuses have you made (to yourself or others) in the past for your weight, and how do you stop yourself from falling back into the "I am heavy because...." attitude?
It’s genetics.
I have an injury.
I have no time to exercise/need to eat a fast and easy meal.
I can’t afford a gym/new runners/workout equipment.
I just had a baby.
I am too picky of an eater.
Oh I could go on forever, I’m horrible for making excuses. However, I have pushed past everyone of those excuses and found out they don’t apply to me. Genetics – well no, my sister is now very skinny, and I’m getting there too. Injury – well I do have one, but the more weight I lose, the less it bothers me. No time to exercise/cook healthy – you can always find time; I workout while Lucas eats, and prep my meals for the week. Can’t afford (whatever) – well I’m nearly down 50 lbs. now and I’ve done it all with no exercise equipment, no gym membership, and a pair of hand me down sneakers! Just had a baby – well he’s not really a baby anymore he’s 2! Too picky of an eater – I’m sloooowly expanding my horizons, forcing myself to try new foods, and adapting foods I love into healthier versions. So I just keep telling myself, whatever excuse you make, you are determined enough to prove yourself wrong. Quit doubting yourself, because that’s why you make these excuses, just do it and let the results speak for themselves!

So, I set my goal at 2500 calories burned for the week. I know that is the lowest we are supposed to do, but that will be REALLY hard for me to reach!
I did a morning walk with Casyn in the stroller and some Wii EA Active2 this morning before the dentist and I did the crunches for the challenge for today. I *plan* on exercising more this evening/night. I'll post back my total calories burned for today later.
Hope everyone's having a good day

I'm going to set my goal at 3,000. I'm really gonna try for more though! I'm down 600 today so that's a start!!0

Hi everyone! My name is Jen and I'm just getting started on the Pink Team for this challenge. My starting weight is 160. I had been down to 145 at one point but have put 15 pounds back from all the emotional eating with the recent loss of my dad. I'm excited to get to know all of you!0
-
Awesome weigh ins ladies! WTG!
I would like to Welcome jennyfair24 (Jen) to the Pink Team! She is our newest member, so please give her a warm welcome and add her as a friend.
Jen- I am excited that you are on our team and if you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask. I am so sorry about your loss of your dad. If there is anything I can do or if you need to just talk/vent/rant, feel free to send me a msg. Welcome to the team and I hope you are here to stay!0 -
Hi Team Pink, you are all doing fantastic!
I changed the min calorie goal to 2000 if anyone needs to adjust it.
Have a great week,
Karie0 -
Welcome to the Pink Team Jen! I'm so sorry to hear about your dad. If you need anything, just let me know.
Just to let everyone know, I'm adjusting my calories burned for the week to 2000. I don't burn a lot with my workouts and I can't devote any extra time working out more right now, so this will have to do.
Since I'm supposed to share what I did yesterday, here goes:
I took a 43 minute walk at 3.5mph (pushing Casyn in the stroller) and burned 169 calories
I did the Wii EA Active 2 for 23 minutes and burned 150 calories
I also completed the 50 crunches for the day
I'm off to start on today's exercises. Hope everyone has a good day.0 -
Good Morning Pink Team! Okay so I am on a mission to get into the 140's and continue to lose from there. I am up 5 ounces from yesterday and today is going to be a "kick my own *kitten*" workout day lol.
I set my calorie goal at 4000 (a little crazy? Maybe, but I have to do something different and I think this will give me the push I need).
Yesterday I took the kids to the zoo and did 3 hours of walking around and I did not dilly-dally... when I tell you I was almost at a jogging pace, I'm not kidding. Friends came with us and they thought it was a great workout and there was so much to look at that we don't even notice that 3 hours had gone by. Well worth it, and it burned 674 calories (i didn't include pushing a double stroller either, but set the pace at 3.0).
Emotional Challenge:
What excuses have I made? Oh man, if you can think of it, basically I have said it... "emotional wear and tear", "it's my parents fault, they should have fed me better!", "it's in my genes", "it's babyfat (yeah even at 15)<--lol", "i'm not fat, i'm big-boned", "idunno where the weight came from, I just woke up and it was there", "what are you talking about? I eat great! burger king is good for you!", "I just had a baby... so what if it was a year ago"... and the list could go on forever. It's pretty pathetic when I look back at it. I know I've been through some hard times, however, that does not give me the excuse to nutritionally abuse my body in a way that will just lead me on a downward spiral. I am better than that, and refuse to give in anymore.
Strength Challenge:
Leg Raises- done (100 each side)
Now onto my cardio... oh boy, wish me luck.
How is everyone else doing today?0 -
I just completed my 40 squats for the day. I also did Wii Just Dance 2 for 30 minutes (burned 139 calories) and Wii Tennis for 20 minutes (burned 83 calories). I'm hoping for a walk later today, but now I have to shower and get my husband and Caeleb's stuff packed for their trip this weekend. They are leaving at midnight for a 6 1/2 hour drive and will be camping at a swap meet until Sunday, come home, and then Caeleb starts 2nd grade Monday morning. Plus, tonight we have Meet The Teacher Night at Caeleb's school and find out where his classroom is and who his teacher will be, so I have to get all his supplies labeled and ready to go for tonight. Fun stuff today, huh? LOL0

Good morning everyone!
I'm reeeeally trying to meet my mini goal of 145 by the end of this week, mind you that would be over a 3 lb. loss so I'm not holding my breath but I sure am pushing for it. I've set my calorie goal at 3,000 but I'm really going to try for 4,000.
Yesterday got off to a great start. I did:
Kickboxing (including Turbo Jam) 24 min. burning 270 cals
Wii - Biggest Loser (Box Fit) 29 min. burning 236 cals
Aerobics, high impact 10 min. burning 78 cals.
Bicycling, 10-12 mph, light (cycling, biking, bike riding) 15 min. burning 101 cals.
Walking, 2.5 mph, leisurely pace 15 minutes burning 50 cals.
For a grand total of 735 cals burned.
Plus I did my leg lifts (100).
I'm aiming for 800 cals burned today.0 -
Hey guys! Set my goal at 4000, but I'm going for more. I just didnt want to set a crazy number and be disappointed in myself if I couldn't make it lol. Hopefully our team will win the calories burned challenge!!
I did day 1 and day 2 challenges. Wow, those leg raises really got me, I havent done those in ages and I felt wobbly-legged after, I might've found something to add to the daily routine! I can't believe you did 100 Tayla! You rock!
I've been doing good on my cardio to get those high calorie burns this week, 30DS in the morning, walk to work/gym and back, elliptical, and steps in the evenings. I know I won't be able to devote this much time forever, but when I do get a chance now I make sure to squeeze it in! Tonight's Zumba again so I'll have a good number today
Emotional challenge.. This is an easy one. I've claimed that I "can't" lose weight because food tastes too good and I CAN'T give it up! LAME. You know what, food is delicious and I pretty much think of all my yummy favourites allll day long, but guess what, I CAN lose weight because I don't need to eat everything I get a craving for. If I must have it, I break a sweat and earn it! Why didn't I figure this out sooner?! haha
My weekly MFP weigh in where I update my ticker is tomorrow yeee wish me luck!0 -
UMM... Has anyone checked out the calorie's burned spreadsheet? Pink team is kicking *kitten* so far... just thought I'd share that! Nice work everyone! There is some SERIOUS BURN going on here! How's everyone doing on the motivation end? Anyone need anything?0

Oh and to recap today I did the following:

Wii - Biggest Loser (Box Fit) 27 minutes burning 170 cals
Walking, 3.5 mph, uphill 60 minutes burning 404 cals
Plus my squats are completed 0 -

I JUST made those for my son and hubby the other night, they were gobbled up in an instant!0 -
Can one of you please explain what "Up & Downs" are as well as "Leg Raises" I just want to make sure I'm doing the right thing.
Thanks!0 -
Up and Downs are also known as "Burpees"
"1.Begin in a standing position.
2.Drop into a squat position with your hands on the ground.
3.Kick your feet back while lowering yourself with a pushup.
4.Return your feet to the squat position while straightening your arms.
5.Leap up as high as possible from the squat position with your arms overhead (you may clap your hands above your head at the peak of your jump)[1] "
I took leg raises to be when you lay on your side and lift your leg up and down... but maybe I'm wrong?0 -

Thanks Michelle.
So the Up & Downs are going to be the death of me, then, huh?0 -
Here's my info. for today. I had really hoped to exercise tonight more, but I'm just too exhausted and need to rest. I need to get more sleep, but I always have problems sleeping whenever my DH is gone.
Wii EA Active 2 for 29 minutes (burned 210 calories). I also completed the 25 lunges today.0 -
Emotional Challenge:
What excuses have you made (to yourself or others) in the past for your weight, and how do you stop yourself from falling back into the "I am heavy because...." attitude?
I've never really made excuses to myself or others about my weight, I just never really realized how big I had truly gotten. However, I am NOT going to allow myself to go back to looking/feeling that way. Everyone (extended family members that we only see a couple times a year) refer to my new eating/tracking food, etc. as a "diet." I don't view it as a diet, I view it as a change in myself permanently. They seem to think that I'm just eating salads, not fried food, etc. as something I'm doing temporarily until I reach a certain weight and then I'll just go back to it again. I have tried to explain that it's not a diet and I'm changing how myself and my family eat, but most of the time it falls on deaf ears. Either way, I'm not going to let myself get back to how I was. I don't want to look/feel/be that way anymore.0 -
Pink Team, Your rocking those calories! Great Job!
Karie0 -

I just copied mine from my exercise journal here, it was super easy0 -
Hey ladies! Long time no talk! It's been a bad binge-y weekend, for some reason when my man is off work all bets are off. I tried to work it off last night but the scale's mad at me- as it should be! I'll be busting my butt as usual to help the teams pounds lost don't you worry
The daily challenges are going well. I've conveniently avoided the up-and-downs up until this point so I suppose that's what's on the agenda for tomorrow. I did the emotional already so I guess I need a recipe.. I found a muffin one, my little boy LOVES muffins but they usually run somewhere like 400 cals?!!
Splenda Blueberry Muffins
1 cup fresh blueberries or 1 cup frozen blueberries
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup light margarine, softened
1 cup Splenda granular (depending on how sweet you want the muffins, I cut the splenda back to 1/2 cup)
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup honey
1/2 cup skim milk
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
Directions:
1Sift flour,baking powder and salt together.
2In another bowl, beat margarine, splenda granular and honey with electric mixer until fluffy.
3Beat in eggs one at a time, add vanilla.
4Alternately stir in flour and milk.
5When blended, fold in berries.
6Spoon batter into paper lined or greased muffin cups.
7Bake until golden in a preheated oven at 350f degrees for about 25 to 30 minutes.
8Cool in pan 10 minutes before removing.

Hey guys, while I have some internet connection I thought I'd say hi! We have a storm with some crazy rain and wind which keeps knocking out our internet! This weekend sucked foodwise, although I think I got ALL of my cravings out of the way. Stupid TOM is here and I'm a little scared for the weigh in
I've been doing lots of exercising and have done everything but the up and downs (which I will do today - boo!) Going for a walk this evening (if the storm dies down). Anyways that's that, hope I don't let everyone down with a gain this week :S 0 -
Happy Monday everyone
My exercises today consisted of the Leg Raises, which I just completed. I also did 52 minutes of the Wii EA Active 2 and burned 325 calories.
I'm still looking for the kid friendly recipe, but will find one either tonight or tomorrow.0 -
My exercises today were a really fun bike ride with my daughter and walking. You ladies are all doing great! Keep up the hard work!
I forgot to post for the emotional challenge. Lately, my excuses for overeating and making poor choices are "not having enough time" to prepare healthier foods and just being overwhelmed. I know these are poor excuses and I know that 99% of my problem is that I'm an emotional eater and I have had some really stressful life changes the past few weeks. I'm trying to adjust and make better choices but I keep finding myself grabbing comfort foods. I'm a work in progress and I will get there!0 -
Woohoo NSV NSV!!!
My mom brought over a bag of clothes that she figures she will never fit into again, and although some of the pants weren't my style I figuerd I'd try them on. Well I saw a pair of size 8's and thought ha this should be funny. So I put them on and zipped them up!! No problems! I even squeeeeeeezed my butt into a pair of size 7s!!!0
