I love having the day off. I usually work weekends so this seem like heaven. Today has become rainy; so I am trapped and going crazy. Here is an extra set of crunches toward our total. It the rain keeps up and the wine doesn't get opened soon, I may have more.
Crunch Countdown
500 - mkaluzny
100 - mkaluzny
600 - Total
Thanks to everyone for updating their challenge statuses (if that is a word - should I try "stati"?)0 -
Completed all food, water, and exercise challenges for Wednesday.
Hey, I think we need to add a new dimension to our team. We know we are all motivated and working toward good physical health. Let's talk intellectual health. Think of the last book you read or are reading. What is it; would you recommend it.
I just finished Lights out in Wonderland (Pierre) - it is about a young man who makes the decision to commit suicide and how this affects the people around him. It is a fiction piece. I probably would not recommend this to many people.
I am reading Left Neglected (Genova) about a Type A woman who multitasks in the car, has an accident, and finds she has no awareness of the left side of her body. It is a fiction piece written by a neurosurgeon. I would recommend this.0 -
Ok, I have done all three days of pygmy and I did an extra 250 crunches today. I also ran a 5k, but not sure if that counts this week.
Also, big thanks to mkaluzny for doing this for the group...you are awesome girlfriend!! Woo hoo Sexy and Sassy kicking butt.0 -
The book I am currently reading is Secrets of an Irresistible Woman by Michelle McKinney Hammond. It is about discovering your own value, becoming the woman God created you to be, and becoming irresistible to the man who is worth marrying.
I would suggest this book to another woman who struggles with self confidence. I was in a very verbally abusive relationship years ago, but at times still affects me now. I have worked my butt off (literally) to get to where I am now and I want to feel valued.0 -
Hi guys! I'm glad I was able to find the new thread. Thanks for setting it up mkaluzny:flowerforyou:
I have to be honest: I have kind of veered off in a different direction after finally recovering from my week of illness.:ohwell:
I am still with you guys in spirit, but I just don't have enough time in the day to do the daily challenges this week. I am doing the crunches, food calories, extra 5K, water part of the challenge though. Everyone is doing such a fantastic job! I wish I had some free time to read a good book, because I really used to enjoy reading(pre-kiddos). Does anyone know what happened to Sass?0 -

I am so glad you are still with us. Your spirit is welcome to inspire us. We need it. So what do children read now days? My kids loved Mercer Mayer (Critter), Robert Munsch, and of course, Maurice Sendek. My son Zack loved the Zack files, of course.
No one ever got into the Berenstain Bears, but I think there were just too long.0 -

It's been a long week and and even longer month. There seems to be a general wave of illness and injury plaguing many of the people on MFP and in my own community. I trust we will get through it and come up with strategies to manage things in the future.0 -

Hi Everyone!
Happy Monday! I am sorry that I am so late on reporting in for the week. I was under on calories, over on water, did 5-5K's but was not able to complete the daily challenges. My current weight is 138lbs. I am really trying to focus more on toning/muscle building now that I am approaching my goal. I was pleased with my body fat percentage going down this week. I will continue to do the best I can on the last week of this challenge, but it is my vacation(leave) week so.... Everyone is doing amazing & I will continue to be with you all in spirit. Have a wonderful week all.0 -
hey hey everyone im not doing any workout today after the day i had yesterday but will pick up tomorrow again! under calories and over water for the day though, even without the workout (major success for me)
is anyone doing the october challenge next month? not sure if i want to or not, but figured id find out if anyone else was so see if there was a chance of developing a team0 -
I am a bit disappointed by the lack of follow through with some of the team activities. My plan was to shadow an October challenge (do the exercises, goal listed), but no formally join a team. I may change my mind if the right invitation comes along. I do feel when on a team that I have to succeed each day; so in a way, that is a great motivator.0
-
I love your Daria theme mkaluzny!
Just checking in to see how everyone is doing. Looks like I'm not the only one who has been stuck on the sidelines. Everyone else is looking good!
It's hard to stay under calories without burning many. Gained 3 lbs, then lost 1. Going to try some yoga today to start back slowly. Will try to shadow what I can in October. Hoping to get back in fully in November.0 -
Dawn, I'm am so glad someone recognizes Daria. She is my muse of sarcasm. I have all her DVDs.
I know it's hard to keep going when you don't feel well. I only have a cold, but am craving salt. I already logged the potato chips that I plan to eat.
Oh well, food exercise and water challenges met today.0
