I'm not sure how to put in the tracker, but here is the rest. I will do my measurements in the morning as well.
SW--93kg
CW--83 kg
GW-- 70-71kg
I'm 5'7 1/2" so I think that is a reasonable goal for me to obtain.
Wow that's pretty much me! (except I'm still stuck on 93 lol)
So!
SW: 93
SepGW: 90
EndGW: 72
Measurements will update when I get home but same as before pretty much
DAMN YOU PCOS!
Workouts are 30DS every day (ONE REST DAY OR IF CAN'T HANDLE WITH KICKBOXING TOO) and Kickboxing Tue and Thu (90 mins).
Perhaps dancing again ... yes. I will drag the bf to that. So Weds, 2-3 hours.0 -
Hey! Going to have get my measurements later... busy busy.
Starting weight: :noway: 176.9 lbs (that was on Sept 1, I've already dropped to 174.8 since then!)
September Goal weight: 169 lbs <--- Jillian's going to help me get there!
Ultimate Goal weight: 140 lbs
Exercise goals: September is my month of HUGE goals... I want to finish the 30 Day Shred with no skipped days (6 days down!), I want to run a total of 25 miles minimum but think I can do up to 35 if my knee is forgiving and I also want to complete this: http://www.onefiftydips.com/ and perhaps this... http://hundredpushups.com/ (it's looking to be a bit much, so may have to push pushups to October)
Nutrition goals: Trying to cut down drinking to two days a week. I sound so pathetic, but I'm a wino and all my friends drink wine ALL the time... lol, it's looking like 3 days a week is more realistic! :drinker:0 -
Measurements:
Neck 13.75
Chest 35
Breast 38
Waist 35
Hips 41.5
Bicep 13.5
Low arm 10
Thy 24.5

great!!!!!! welldone.
how is kettlebell???? wat kind of things do you do with it?? notice any changes since using it??
oh cool, yeah all my nurse firends say the same thing, cardio at work haha
Hey Bree,
I typically do a 20/30 min full body kettlebell session at least once a week. It still amazes we how quickly I work up a sweat & how my muscles feel afterwards even though its a pretty short weight session. Have you tried them at all?0 -

What is a kettle ball workout involve? I've been doing mainly cardio for a while now but am wanting to branch out into more strength/toning exercises at the gym.
Looking at some photos taken in the weekend I think I'm starting to regain shape in my face0 -
Got about 35 min of a walk/jog in this morning with my dog! She kinda slowed me up, but still made it about 2 1/2 miles. The kettlebell exercise that I did yesterday I got out of this months issue of Fitness magazine, my legs hurt SO bad today b/c it involved a lot of squats, so working it out!!0

Kettlebells are weights with a handle so they are pretty verstile. I find my workout end up feeling like cardio session as I work up a huge sweat, the aim is to get through the set as quick as possible with minimal breaks so you really challenge yourself. I find when I increase my weight based workout I crave healthy food like salmon & veg & feel so much better than after cardio sessions plus I can now see definition in my muscles.
I did a quick google search this site looks like it covers all the basis on the first page i.e you can see the bell's plus lots of excercises being demonstrated in the middle of the page - scroll to the side to see more. I havent looked at what they are selling so I'm not recommending it. On youtube there are a load of videos where people show their kettlebell sessions, you can see really fit people struggling to complete a session when they push themselves. Some people can burn 400 calories in a 20min session with minimal breaks.

Went to the gym today 50 minute workout, I've noticed my tummy looks tighter so maybe I haven't lost actual numbers because of this. Plus my pants fit better which is always nice
Hope you are all having a lovely start to the week0 -
Feeling really bloated today, however I did have a 1.5 lb loss on the scale today so that's good! The past few days I've greatly reduced my amount of exercise. Today I did yoga. Tomorrow I plan on having a super sweat session at the gym in the evening. Might also plan a morning run to get the blood flowing before work, or at least a good walk.0

Congrats on everyone's highs so far and hugs to those who have had a few lows.
I've been grounded for the last 10days no exercise allowed and quarantined, doctor thinks I may have whooping cough. I'm waiting on test results tomorrow. I am so bored and want to exercise so badly. It's 10.5 weeks until I fly out :sad:
I don't believe in quitting I've come to far, so tomorrow no matter what I'm going to starting static exercises, no jumping around just weights, see how I go.
Have an awesome day everyone :flowerforyou:0 -

Thanks!! I'll kettleball a try tonight if I'm feeling brave!
Yesterday I decided to study for my exam which I had today instead of going to the gym but when I got home at 10: 30pm I felt so guilty that it would be two days in a row I hadn't exercised so i went for a short run. Going for a run that late was definately not my smartest idea. I got lost and ended up running for 20 minutes then walking around for another half hour just trying to find my way home again! But at least it was good exercise haha0 -
Okay, so maybe this is a little cheat but guess what I'm taking it...1kg loss yaaaaaaaaayy!
Take that plateau :bigsmile:
Why a cheat well because nearly everything I'm eating I've lost by being sick
But it is a great to get a boost when I've been feeling so lousy. Started little exercises yesterday not to much coughing so tomorrow, I'm going to bump it up a little.
Have an awesome day everyone remember you're all special and deserve the life you dream of. :flowerforyou:0 -
Haha even losing weight when you're sick counts! :laugh: It is nice to get a little boost by being sick just because it makes up for you feeling so crappy and not being able to workout for a few days!0

Hi all,
I hope you have all had an awesome week
I weighed myself this morning and I'm 52kgs!!! YAY! Plus I was still 52kgs at the end of my working day
I hope you all have a lovely weekend.

I had a pretty bad start to the week but have been going better the last couple of days and still managed a small loss of 0.3kg. I have been going for walks and runs rather than the gym a bit this week which has been a nice change but I burn alot more calories when I go to the gym.
I've also increased my goal weight to 55kg rather than 52. I will reconsider when I finally get to 55.
Hope everyones weekend is going well xo
Kelly- congrats on 52kg!! thats great! my old goal weight0 -
Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend.
Don't forget to have a moments silence for the sadness that changed the world 10years ago. :flowerforyou:
Weigh in day for me tomorrow, see you then0 -
