    Exercise Minutes: 343

    I did meet the water challenge and I *almost* met the calorie challenge. I went over twice. Once of which was only 18 calories over.

    I did not do the extra challenges, but I did meet my own of bringing all my equipment (weights, stability ball, mat) to vacation and maintained my workout schedule while going away.

    Great job...I know how hard it is to workout on vacation...you still deserve 2 thumbs up

    I am struggling with whether or not to re commit to the half marathon I was planning on running. My surgeon has given me the ok, but my conditioning has clearly taken a hit with o exercise for nearly three weeks. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

    I ended up with a hemotoma which more than likely came from exercising too much 1 month after surgury. 4 months of soreness/pain ensued:grumble: . Just mho, but do not push it. There will be other half marathons out there for you if this is not to be:flowerforyou:

    Hi! First THANK YOU for posting the challenges ahead of time-it makes it much easier for me to plan ahead. I looked up woodchops on youtube as I've never heard of them. Are we doing the horizontal ones, or the diagonal for the obliques?

    Thanks!

    Sorry, I didn't realize that there was 2 version. The horizontal ones. I'm hoping that this will help those not to miss them. Good luck.

    Good morning- Here is a template that you can use to make sure that you get everything since there were more challenges this week:

    workout minutes:
    Height: 5' 7"
    Weight: 178
    Waist: 33
    Hips: 42
    wrist: same 6.25"
    arm:same 9.8"

    Team Challenge-- did meet water; did not meet under calories
    Individual Challenge:
    Mini Challenge Not met
    Tuesday Challenge Not met
    Thursday Challenge : met---mixed up swimming in morning and later in day biking.

    Dh and I went on anniversary trip, eating out for 4 days, and driving in mountains for 4 days--- dont recommend for weight loss although we had a great time. :-/

    And this week we'll be gone on another road trip of 4 days ( for business, and wine tasting is in the plans, but I am determined to eat well and be moderate in wine!). The hardest part of travelling is getting in good workouts, so im doing a good one the morning we leave, and in the evening when i get back, and hopefully a good amount of walking when im there....

    Oh no! :ohwell:

    Did I get eliminated because I checked in too late? (it was 8 a.m. Sat. my time). Or cuz I didn't do well? Just curious----I understand. You gotta have rules and stick with 'em! :smile:

    Anyway, great job everyone! I want to continue to follow to see who is the biggest loser! Go everyone!!

    <<sits up in seat and munches celery>>

    P.S. Amberlin, I think you should do the race anyway. It's okay if you don't do your best, and even walk parts. But it's one more experience under your belt of racing, and you will have the sense of accomplishment. (I did a marathon many years ago, and found that all the races leading up to it were all important to my success for different reasons) Good luck!

    Reminder: that 2 team mates will be eliminated again this week. The team mates that will be eliminated will be the ones with the lowest % which will be from the team with the lowest points.

    Also, anyone that checks in after 9 a.m. (eastern time) will be counted as 0% & will be eliminated no matter which team.

    Good Luck Team Triumph & Team Conquer.
