Okay team, we had a first week. How are we going to kick this week's butt?

I can tell you for one thing - it's NOT the 1/2 Tombstone pizza I just split with my fiance for dinner.

I got my Jillian Michaels "Ripped in 30" DVD in the mail today (which should have inspired me to eat a little better tonight, but didn't), so I'm going to start that first thing tomorrow. I'm going to wake up early, exercise, then go to work.

I'm also off soda this week. I've been drinking diet Lipton Green Tea with Citrus at work, and thus far, it's gone well. No sleeping at work. :yawn:

What are you going to do this week? Are there lessons learned from last week that you're applying for this upcoming one?

    p.s. I scanned the copy of the Prevention Magazine "Sexy Summer Slim Down" Article with the info on the Interval Training and the special ab exercises. I can't find a way to post it in our group, so if you'd like the pdf, email me at dsujjavanich@gmail.com or message me at daringettinghawtin2012 here at MFP.

    Started 30 day shred 3 days a week and C25K 3 days a week with 1 day off. It went well last week, so more of the same for the rest of the month! My weight loss had slowed down until last weeks changeup and I was very happy with my results!

    I'm working out 5 days this week, and I'm going to incorporate those Bob Harper DVD's into my routine. I got 4 last month during his $5 sale, and I've done one. It was SOOOOOOO hard! So, I'll probably get a two-three hour workout for 3 of those days (that's if I can get over this cold)! Also, drinking almost a gallon of water a day and absolutely no drinks that have calories. (that's my biggest vice). I hope to see at least a pound gone next week!

    I'm going to do heavy cardio twice a week, and try to just be generally more active (housework, walking around campus, etc) for the remaining of the week. Drink more water, and keep with my calorie limits (around 1300-1400).

    I need to drink more water and stay focus on diet. Great on exercise but not diet. Let's push this 2nd week and stay focus!

    Working out 6 days again this week. Only made it to weight train once last week so I'm determined to get in two this week. Probably limit my alcohol a bit more than last weekend. I need to stick to 3 drinks, not 5!
    I have a really busy week at work so I'm not going to have as much free time as I'd like so I'm a bit nervous about staying on track.

    Stepping up the exercise this week. I also bought a food scale so I can more accurately account for my food instead of guesstimating ;)

    I found Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred on youtube yesterday, 2 days down 28 to go and I can barely move my legs now :D ! It's a good workout! I am also going to drink at least 12 glasses of water a day this week.

    I started this thing called "Mean Abs June" that I found on Pinterest and I kicked butt at the gym yesterday along with an hour bike ride. Going to try some barbell exercises tomorrow.

    I log in every day...
    I record my food every day...
    I continue to do exercises every day
    I do not fret about the weight. Just weigh myself 1 per week not 1 per hour! :)

    We know what to do so ...

    JUST Do IT

    Good luck with it! I really want to try this but afraid it's a little too soon and a little too ambitious for me right now. Maybe in a few more weeks ;)

    Ugh. I had a baby shower at my house on Saturday... oh dear, leftover brownies and cake ruined my weigh-in! :( I'm UP two pounds from when I started. Grr... here's to a good week this time around!

    I"m playing around with my net calories, so I don't know what to expect this week. And I'm decreasing the number of workout days from 6 or 7 to 4 or 5. Rest days seem to help me workout more effectively the other days.

    I'm finishing up 30DS soon (22 out of 30 in the books). Power 90 is next.

    Think my body is at a plateau, which I guess will happen every 10lbs now.

    I'm not doing so great, gang. Overeating, and drinking, to boot. Having a hard time waking up in the morning (to exercise OR go to work). I just want to wake up and work out like I mean it. I feel it NOW, but at 6 a.m. tomorrow? I need it to translate.

    Strength training (brazilian butt lift program) and cardio excellent for me this week. Calories consumption staying under and not eating my exercise calories. Portion control much better this week as my strength training is improving and seeing noticable results. I need to get bikinisuited by July 8!!!
