NSV: My husband and I were playing around last night and I pinned him. To be fair, he wasn't expecting it and he never wants to hurt me whereas I don't care about hurting him (gosh that sounds horrible). He's 6'2", I'm 4'11", and he's a Marine. And yet, I was able to pin him!! He asked, "Did you get stronger or did I get…

I work out about 5 days a week, with weight training 3 of those days. The other two days are random cardio (hiking, swimming, elliptical). The cardio really depends on who I can con into working out with me (I'm sadly a socially motivated worker outer). NSV: My husband and I were playing around last night and I pinned him.…

My check in: Chalean, five times this week: 3.5, ab burner and finished chalean burn. I'm sad to see that go, was feeling confidant. Now to move onto push circuit. I'm scared. 3 fruits/veggies: heck yes! rocking this goal this week Within calories with protein being higher than fat: yep, sodium still high though :( Don't…

MrsBlobs: glad you broke out of that plateau, I hate those!

CynMM: welcome! Great goals! HeartsDesire: as an English teacher, your alliteration is awesome :) Cool on the ticker, neat idea. KrisPage: hope you don't feel aches and pains later. What's up with our lil group getting into car accidents? Glad you're okay. bhurley: awesome on so close to goal weight! MAK: Woo hoo on…

My check in: Chalean, five times this week: 1.5, today was a day of rest, so I went to the gym and did the elliptical for an hour with a friend instead. Still, hoping to make .5 tonight if my hubby wants to try the ab burner again. 3 fruits/veggies: yep, so awesome :) Within calories with protein being higher than fat:…

Vicki I agree with you on yoga. It stretches so wonderfully and you are constantly feeling stretched if done regularly, which of course the downside is how aware of being tight if you aren't consistent all of the sudden. Thanksgiving will be a challenge only in the fact that my family will not be happy with me unless I eat…

Making myself a priority was the hardest thing to overcome, but the most important in making myself healthier. It was, and continues to be, the biggest obstacle towards consistency. Love this, can completely 100% relate to it, thanks.

HeartsDesire: glad you're getting back to your regular am workout, your bday ticker I'm assuming is for your birthday? Do you have weight goal by then? Or just celebrating your bday with happiness ticker? Hoping to check out your link tomorrow as tonight proves to be busy. Thanks for sharing info. Your icons crack me up.…

My motivation was just to lose weight at first. I wanted to get down to 115 lbs. Well a couple of weeks ago I hit that. It was tunnel vision and more easy to lose the motivation because I couldn't appreciate the slow pounds coming off. Now I have a goal to be stronger. It's a vague goal that I have great, glorious NSV…

My goals this week: Chalean, five times this week: 1.5 (counting abs as half since it's only 10 mins 3 fruits/veggies: yep, did it! Within calories with protein being higher than fat: yep, doing good Don't let my family drag down my eating habits: no, but could've been better. I dragged me down. Started not feeling well…

MAK: like your water goal, grats on competing yet another program!! cherrikin: welcome! hope you get to enjoy your workouts this week! jennyph: I love Billy Blanks. Always have! HeartsDesire: I'm glad you're keeping your goal of checking in every night with us, you've such an upbeat positive can do attitude! kerrylou: wow…

bonjour: I like that : "i'm so short, even though i cover the same distances as others, i actually have to run further because my legs have to go twice as far". I feel the same way even just walking next to someone like my husband. Surely I burn more calories as well, just in trying to cover the same distance? Oh no on the…

littlemount: thanks for the advice, I appreciate it! mammacado: welcome! Glad to have you with us. Chalean, four times this week: 4.5/4 actually convinced my husband to do the ab burner video with me by promising it was just ten minutes. He's a young marine, so of course he made that crap look easy. But I still prefer to…

I'm a stay at home mom (at least till we get settled) for the first time in 14 years. I also have the same fears about food being so easily accessible. I'm trying to concentrate on how I can shop more frequently and cook more regularly so that I can eat healthier. Let me know (once you get started) tricks that you learn to…

Chalean, four times this week: 3.5/4 today, despite being extremely sad, did chalean burn 1 and this time all of the abs. Abs still a struggle with a slow crunch, can't hold weights with it yet. Hope to get back to that soon 2 fruits/veggies: none, no excuse for this either. Definitely being continued to next week Within…

Thank you all for your truly wonderful and sincerely support to me. It helps so much. ladygloria: hope you feel better, and slept well. littlemount: so I'm sure the walk offset the pizza as far as calories go? bhurley: sodium is a tricky lil thing in what it pops up in everywhere as well. But fantastic on fruits/vegs and…

danlyn: thank you so much for your sympathy, I'm sorry for your loss as well. Good job getting both walks in. MAK: thank you for your continued support, love the new pic. You can see the loss in the face. Exceptional job. Chalean, four times this week: 1.5/4 still, I may not make this goal. I'm hoping to use my grief and…

I started this workout and so far love it, thanks for sharing

Mrs. Blobs: I love how you described the blossom, now I want to see it too! Silvercivic: what a great way to keep two different family members happy, by combining names! MissD89: that knock knock joke was my daughter's favorite, she never could get it right, but I heard it several times a day for what I swear was a year. I…

Tried to reply, wouldn't let me (on the old place). So glad we started another. 1. What is one place you haven’t traveled that you would love to go to? Egypt, I want to see the pyramids, so badly 2. Do you know any jokes? If so, tell us one. What do Disneyland and viagra have in common? You stand up for hours for a two…

After 3 days of hospitalization, my dog is not much improved. She's dying and it's breaking my heart to see her suffer. I'm telling my daughter (her dog) we're putting dog down. Just to get her to survive on a day to day basis we were sent home with an IV drip bag, needles, and injections. This needs to be done daily. She…

omg, so funny, love it!! I need a friend like this

34 again: great on crunches, I struggled with this one today. And way to finish the charger littlemount: great snacks, and I love getting distracted by nature. Just recently moved and the leaves changing colors are amazing me (didn't really see that in my desert). Thanks for the advice/article. danlyn: saw you got in your…

I just did Chalean after a week and half break, and wow! Both impressed and sad: :ohwell: impressed was able to maintain same amount of weights and reps on weights, sad because my abs couldn't even come close to completing the ab burner. :grumble:

KrisPage: great job on the miles midday! Chalean, four times this week: 0/4 today, still busy getting settled into my town 2 fruits/veggies: three, yippee Within calories: yep, hoping this becomes a habit soon Don't emotionally eat this week: today was better, but it's been a better day. Still stressed, but much much…

Oh definitely more hungry if I eat breakfast, and it doesn't seem to matter what type of food I eat, I'm still hungry within a couple of hours.

littlemount: fantastic job on your steps. When I'm missing my kids Philosohoe used to walk with me to help take my mind off of them. It's amazing how silent a house is without lil ones. MAK: amazing NSV moment, love those more than scale ones. Jogging/running still seems like a far away goal for me, so super kuddos. You're…

danlyn: great job on walking Chalean, four times this week: 0/4 today, was so busy today getting settled into my town 2 fruits/veggies: two, just realized I didn't accomplish this and can munch on carrots, so yay for having this goal Within calories: yep, even if I add the carrots Don't emotionally eat this week: tough but…

After a week break from mfp due to relocating, I'm looking forward to getting into the exercise challenge (water tends not to be my issue). Is it the same document place? A new one?
