The Final Meltdown 7.8.09

good mornink! Hope everyone is doing good today and making wise choices.

When I got home from work last night, it was waaaaay too hot and steamy to go to the gym (I'm in Miami). Instead, I put on a movie I had Tivo-ed and started bouncing in the trampoline - before I knew it, I'd done 45 minutes! woohoo! :drinker: aaaand, I drank all my water yesterday.

I too had a great day yesterday. Ate within my limits and exercised, walk/edjogged, for almost 2 hours. I felt great.

I am planning on have another great day today. Ate breakfast, packed lunch, just need to work on dinner, the most challenging meal for me.

My kids, 4 of them, are in a parade tonight, so I'm hoping to steal at least 30 minutes tonight to go for a jog. Busy busy.

Have a great day everyone.

PS... still on T.O.M. but decided to weigh in this morning... water weight down 1.4 pounds from yesterday. (gain 4 pounds on TOM) TMI... sorry but just had to share.

Mornin all
Did 30 minutes on my bike and another 30 minute walk plus stayed under my cals :drinker:
I don't know if I will get any workout tonight I have to get ready to lrave tomorrow to go back to yankee country to take my cousin home. Maybe I will try to mow the lawn (i have to use a push mower right now riding mower broke)

Hope yall have a great day

Ok, i posted this in yesterdays thread.. so here is what I meant to post here!

Good Wednesday morning to you all!!

Ok, so the delio is that yesterday, I went to the gym after work, rode the bike for 40 minutes, then spend 20 mins on the free weight area, working triceps. Ran home, prepped a salad and stored it for later, jumped in my car and raced back to work where I met up with a coworker (doctor) who is doing track workouts with a whole buch of teenagers who are overweight. We split up into teams which lined up in a row, started walking and passing a beach ball overhead. when the last one got the ball, he/she had to speed walk to the front of the line and start over. We had most of the kids (and many of their parents) stick with it for a full mile (this is a great accomplishment for many of these kids!). I jogged around the track an extra half mile, handing out water. Yay cardio Tuesdays!

This morning (3am), I got up and walked my dog for 2 miles. No jogging, which is a goal... my hips were feeling wobly this morning after the biking and jogging yesterday~ I will hit the gym after work again for 45 mins of cardio and 20 mins of weights (hamstrings).

Good luck in your goals today!

Didn't do to well yesterday.
I went over on my calories and didn't exercise. I only went over on calories because I ate BEFORE I realized that I wasn't going to work out, so I was eating my exercise calories that I didn't even earn. OOOPS! I was just sooooooooooo exhausted yesterday for some reason. I was starting my workout when my husband came home and I told him I just didn't feel like working out and he said "So don't" and well I didn't. Now I feel awful about it!!! I will work out extra hard tonight. I feel much better and somewhat energized today.

Stay healthy everyone!!

Good Morning!! :flowerforyou:

Didn't get my walking in this morning.......but I think I walked at least 4 miles
at the traffic collision scene last nite!! Tired today....at least I didn't go out
with the guys to Denny's at 2am and fill up with carbs/fat!

Did good yesterday, stuck with what I packed. Today may be difficult, I'm tired
and will probably want some carbs this afternoon.

Chrissy...great gob on finishing couch to 5k!!

Have a wonderful day!

I did really well on my eating. I am on WW and ate all my points! I still need to drink more water.
I did wii active in the afternoon yesterday and at night my husband and I workout to P90X.
So far today I am doing well! I am going out for a MOM’S night out tonight so I did my P90X this afternoon. I am really proud of myself, because I really wanted to take a nap instead. I hope everyone is doing well today. Thanks for the support.

melissa

P90X looks sooo hardcore...you go girl!!! enjoy your well deserved mom's night out....(take me!!!!!!!:laugh: )

Just a quick question ... Due to the time diff do we need to wait for you to start a new thread for the day or can we start one ourselves? It's the 9th here and 13.36 but don't want to step on anybodys toes :blushing:

LOL BTW love the kitties in your ticker

Thanks! Those are my kids (missing the 72 lb hound) Simon (rt) and Sadie (lft)
