    Tuesday
    Exercise challenges
    Water -- 12 cups
    Under calorie goal -- yes
    Walking Challenge: 1
    Burned 69
    Minutes 22

    Grandma didn't need to be lifted or caught, thank goodness - I'm not sure I would have been capable! I am SORE. I've just tried to keep moving today because every time I get still for long at all, I about can't start back up again! I'm going to have to modify some of these....can't risk dropping any of my old sweeties, and 3/4 of my business is elderly folks.

    Pundas – congrats on reaching your walking goal!

    These nights at the Little League concession stand are killing my exercise routine! So this morning I got up early and started the day 2 exercise challenges but need to finish the burpees and leg raises. I was running late for work and had to stop. Have a good day everyone!

    Challenge Exercises: NO...decided this morning that I needed to have a day off...not so much sore as just T-I-R-E-D :tongue: after my run and walk. Think my muscles need a day of rest AND I KNOW my Triceps do...so will double up tomorrow.

    Under Calories: YES

    Walking challenge: Ran 2 miles & then walked 2 miles

    Okay......that is what I posted yesterday for Wednesday, but I named it Tuesday......looks like I did two separate and totally different Tuesdays in one week! Sorry for any confusion.

    Thursday
    Exercise challenges - no
    Water -- 12 cups
    Under calorie goal -- yes
    Walking Challenge: .5
    Burned 333
    Minutes 130

    Tomorrow I will start catching up on the challenge exercises, but am SO sore from Monday, still, that I am going to do the best I can *reasonably* do, rather than do what I did on Monday and half kill myself, lol. I do believe there will be a difference in my body at the end of this challenge!!! Thanks, Teresa!

    Thursday:
    Exercise challenges – yes, days 2 and 3
    Water -- 14 cups
    Under calorie goal -- no
    Walking Challenge: 0 (severe t-storms)
    Burned 0 (6933/32500 = 25567 remaining)
    Minutes 0 (1382/1950 = 568 remaining)

    I definitely missed my run yesterday because of the storms. And I’m still behind on the exercise challenges but I LOVE pushing it to the limit! I don’t know if I’ll get them in by Sunday. I have the Dirty Girl Mud Run tomorrow – so exciting!

    Shelle68 – hoping your fibromyalgia eases up for you!

    Kackie – nice job with the run/walk!

    Keep up the great work all!

    Saturday
    Exercise challenges - no
    Water -- 12 cups
    Under calorie goal -- yes
    Walking Challenge: 3
    Burned 226
    Minutes 75

    Cals at 293 under maintenance.

    It's not that I haven't done any challenge exercises this week, but that Tuesday was the only day I accomplished them well enough and did them ALL, so I haven't felt right giving myself credit any other days. I'm hoping I am getting stronger and will be able to get a full 2-3 days worth done this next week, then work my way back up to 6 days as time goes by! Right now I'm still really sore, and feel kind of weak even while walking. But at least I CAN keep up with the walking, and that can only help in my goals.

    For those that didn't see my status update on Fri, I have set my calories to maintenance and am going to try zigzagging for a few weeks. That's why I am now posting how much under maintenance I am.
