Good mornin ladies:drinker:

Hope you are all having a great hump day.
I did 30 minutes of Jillian michaels Boost your metabolism ( I can't handle all 40 minutes yet)
Am working hard at the healthy eating.
I am going to try drinking Ensure as my morning snack to see if that helps me enjoy a smaller lunch

:flowerforyou:

    WHOOPS - Smadag and I started our topics at the same time! SORRY FOR THE CONFUSION!!


    Happy Hump Day Ladies! :wink: :flowerforyou:

    I hope you're all doing well and had a successful Cinco de Mayo yesterday! :drinker:

    I finished day 12/30 yesterday. I only did 38 minutes on the elliptical - however it wasn' t the machine that I liked so I didn't burn as many calories as I would have liked. But at least I got my heartrate up! Day 13 today - shooting for 40 minutes on my favorite elliptical machine and maybe some light weights for the arms.

    I've been doing well on my calories too, so that's a plus. I'm definitely hoping to see a loss at the scale this week - April was a ROUGH :grumble: month for me and I'm really hoping to get back on track and stop making excuses.

    Have a wonderful day all :heart: - I hope to see you all around! :glasses:

    Did okay on calories, not sure if I went over or not, forgot to log dinner but I didn't eat a lot, nothing like what I had been eating the past month, so I know I did better. No exercise but I don't feel so bloated the way I did when I was eating so badly.

    My husband keeps saying he wants to join me on this but then he goes and eats badly and then so do I. I finally decided that if he doesn't want to do it, I can't make him I will just let him eat the way he wants and do what I need to do. I have to take care of myself first and foremost.

    Have a great day ladies and keep up the good work!

    good morning all! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    i'm STILL a little sore from my BL workout on monday with the cards..holy moly! i'm going to try to sneak in a workout tonight. my co-workers are throwing me a little going away party after work tonight- i'll try to keep the snacks in check! :laugh: :laugh:

    i'm thinking maybe i'll do BL cardio level 1 and ride bike for 20 mins or so....mix it up a bit? i'll just keep going till i burn 500 calories.

    i've been on top of my calories, lately i've been not having enough left to eat a sweet snack after dinner, so i've just been skipping it. it's been a major test of willpower- but so far i'm passing!! :bigsmile:

    still stuck at 2 lbs lost, but maybe i should measure myself. i feel good lately.

    happy hump day!! :drinker: :drinker:

    Chulie and Biggest Loser have inspired me.....

    I have been saying for the past few weeks I want to run a 5k by the time I am 40 - well why wait...I'll be 38 in July and I have found a 5k in Oct (Race for the Cure) - when I found it I actually cried...knowing that I CAN DO IT!!! Well not physically yet, but I WILL DO IT!!!!!!! I've printed off the Couch to 5k program and I am starting it today. It will be very emotional for me to actually accomplish the 5K itself but to also do it as a breast cancer survivor will be amazing. The last Relay for Life that I walked in the survivors lap I was SO emotional so I can imagine that I will be crying when I finish - but I will finish! I am so excited to have set this goal....

    Here I go.........

    Today is day 16/30 for me.

    I did really good on exercising yesterday but not on calories. I was 166 over. Not real bad but not good either. All I have wanted to do for the last couple of days is eat. I have been really having to fight it. Here is hoping and praying that today is going to be better.
