    Hey everyone! Sorry I didn't get to check in yesterday - ended up doing two days of exercises today and I'm whooped. Those globe jumps are too much for my knees though so I have to change it up. Did the advanced each time so far - planning to do the same this week!

    All missions accomplished yesterday - excited to get started on this week's exercises tomorrow!

    I'm back! We had a great time, but I am happy to get back to a work out routine. I'm ready to hit the gym! Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend.

    Oh, and mission accomplished, but it was hard. Especially the water. Drinking a lot of water meant long walks to the bathroom. Not a good thing when camping in a tent!

    Day 2 - 3 sets of 15 Swimmer’s Presses, 3 sets of 21’s, 3 sets of 15 Dumbbell Chest Fly’s, 3 Sets of 15 Lawnmowers, 3 sets of Tricep Kickbacks, 3 sets of 15 Woodchops, 20 Pushups (modified if needed)

    mission accomplished. I did 4 real push ups and the other 16 "girl" pushups. That was brutal - just a few years ago I did 55 "real" pushups without stopping and now 4 is really hard. I only can get better, I know!

    Tuesday - 12 cups of water, under calories, food diary complete (and super honest with all the crap I ate).

    p.s. I hit mini goal #3 today (214.6) and am 24 days ahead of "schedule" although you can't really schedule these things. I guess I'll say 24 days ahead of my goal date for this goal weight! I know it's because these challenges keep me moving and your encouragement means so much! THANK YOU!

    Week 2 started on Monday. Week one just consisted of Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. We rested and weighed in on Sunday and Started week 2 on Monday.

    We just had a short week during Week One because September started Midweek. So, here is what your schedule looks like for this week.

    Monday (Day 1) and so on...now if you take a rest day through the week, then you pick up where you left off. Monday was my rest day, so Tuesday was Day 1 for me.

    For everyone doing the Bushmen (Advanced Series) please forgive me, but I was remiss in posting your small excerpt! Thanks Em for bringing it to my attention before the end of the week.

    The extra mile walk on Days 1, 3 and 5 are for the Pygmy people and we get extra points for every DAY (not mile) that we do over and above the series' requirements. HOWEVER...

    The Bushmen Series is providing points for the following:

    Week Two Weekly Team Challenge
    Same water and calories challenge plus Walk, Run or Jog a 5K this week. For each day you do a 5K (3.1
    miles your team will get an additional bonus point. 1 point per day per participant)


    So whatever you can do...is appreciated. Again, I apologize, but I thought I had copied everything. Inbox me with any questions or concerns.
