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!!!
WTG!! Congrats!0 -

Well, I am happy to say that I met the calorie burned goal for this week and even went over by 5, LOL. You all are awesome, by the way!!!
Here's the breakdown of today's exercises:
Aerobics, Low Impact for 30 minutes burned 171 calories (Ab Attack on Netflix)
Wii Boxing for 10 minutes burned 56 calories
Calisthenics, home, light/moderate effort for 5 minutes burned 18 calories (crunches, up & downs, step ups, and leg raises)
Jumping Jacks for 1 minute burned 9 calories
I completed the up & downs for today. Those were killer for me, but I pushed through it.
I'm still working on a recipe to submit, but other than that I've completed everything for the week. This week was really hard for me, so I'm dreading next week already!0 -
Finally found a recipe that we would actually like and eat here. It's from weelicious.com, but with some changes. Her recipe is Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins (http://weelicious.com/2011/05/25/banana-chocolate-chip-muffins/#comments). I changed it up a bit, by omitting the salt, honey, and chocolate chips, and adding extra milk so mine are just Banana Muffins. I just baked some and tried one and they are yummy! Here's the recipe/ingredients and how I did it:
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 large egg
1 cup milk
3 TBSP vegetable oil
2 ripe bananas (mine were 236grams total)
1. Preheat oven to 400° F.
2. Combine the first 3 ingredients in a bowl.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, milk, oil, and mashed bananas.
4. Slowly combine the dry ingredients into the wet.
5. Pour batter into greased or lined muffin cups, about 2/3 of the way up, and bake for 18 minutes.
6. Cool and serve.***makes 18 muffins***
Per muffin: 75 calories, 3 grams of fat, 71 mg of sodium, 11 carbs, 2 protein and 2 calcium (those are the things that I track).0 -
So TOM is here, and I've not been eating so good, so I am just hoping so sweat out all of the bad today! I've done 66 minutes of Zumba, gonna get a Biggest Loser workout in, and then a nice long walk tonight! I'm already dripping in sweat from the Zumba though!
Our team totally killed the calories burned challenge. I love our team!!
So I've done the 6 Strength challenges. Ugh pretty sure the Up and Downs were gonna be the death of me!! But I pushed through. I've completed all the other challenges this week as well, so max points for me.0 -

Way to go Amy!!! You did awesome this week!0 -
Just wanted to add that I just got home from walking to Caeleb's school to pick him up (and walking home). Not such a great idea in the 102 degree weather. OMG....I am sweating TONS! Anyways, in our 15 minute walk I burned 48 addtional calories (although it feels like a bunch more).0

Hello Ladies! Sorry I have been a little MIA the past few days... 4 days ago I witnessed my 10 yr old niece snap her forearm in half... literally. If you take a twig and snap it in half, that was her arm. (she tripped over a bench and landed the wrong way on her arm). Most brutal thing I've ever seen in person. So immediately she was rushed to the local hospital and xrayed. She completely broke both bones in her forearm so they sent her to Children's hospital to have surgery, however they were too backed up so just reset the bones and gave her a temporary cast. In the meantime I have had my nephew staying with me on and off while she is recovering. They finally got her into surgery today and she had two RODS put into the bones in her forearm. She's such a trooper... seriously the strongest little person I know. Thankfully everything went well, but it has been one hell of an emotional ride for everyone the past few days. Plus some other BS was going on between my parents that really makes me think "do I really have to be saying this to them? Aren't I supposed to be the kid and Them the parents?". Some people just don't get it. Anyhoo, I know that was a rant but I've been doing so well and my emotions got the best of me today and I pigged out, but hopefully can still make a comeback.
Here are my stats for this week:
Emotional challenge- 1 pt
Cardio challenge- 1 pt
Strength Challenge- 6 pts (I completed all of the individual strengths)
food challenge- 1 pt
Total - 9 pts.
Loving the amount of calories that we've burned. That is friggen amazing! Seriously, it's kind of insane when you look at all of our burns together and realize how many calories that is! Way To GO!!!!0 -

Guarantee you those up-and-downs weren't pretty, but they're done. And I don't plan on doing those again any time soon lmao =P
Ugh Tayla I can't imagine seeing something like that, I'd have nightmares. She's one tough cookie!!0 -
Omg Tayla, I couldn't imagine. That sounds horrible, poor girl, glad she's doing ok now though!!
So I was feeling a little down about myself today so I posted a thread showing my weight loss, thought I'd share it with you guys so you can see my weight loss journey in progress. I'm feeling a little bit better about it all after seeing it all layed out like that!
