Hello Ladies. Remember it's weigh in/calorie reporting day. Please let me know before 6pm EST which is 10pm UK time. I must apologise. I burned over 5000 again but my weight has stayed the same. Fingers crossed you have better results than me!

168.5 again this week. My weight loss seems to happen fortnightly so fingers crossed there will be movement next week! I went out on Friday and Saturday this week (staying within my calories) and it's My TOM so I didn't expect much. Sorry.

Week Beginning 7th November Monday - 579 (Body Step) Tuesday - 1301 (Body Combat/Teaching Zumba) Wednesday - 707 (Double Spin) Thursday - 821 (Teach Zumba/Teach Zumbatomic Friday - 1043 (5k Run/Body Step) Saturday - 0 (Rest Day) Sunday - 754 (Body Attack) Total - 5205

Saturday done.

I have found this challenge which helps me keep my calories burned at a high level: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/381119-burn-5-000-calories-wk-in-november-o Just thought I'd share.

All done for Friday.

100 modified push ups maybe. I can barely do one proper push up!

I haven't been able to get the telly this week (golf and cricket rule in my household) but I'm going to a friend's house tomorrow for wine and Wii so I will be keeping track of my scores then. Fingers crossed the new challenge is up in time!

Exercises done just about - roll ups are killers! I managed 5 miles today.

I think we all have to be "normal" now and again. The amount of hard work you put in, you deserve the odd treat. Try not to feel guilty - you've probably burned 3 cheese burger meals this week. I hope you enjoyed it.

Today's exercises done. Used tins of soup so they weren't my usual Body Pump weights but I'm struggling to fit it in properly on a Wednesday. I doubt I'll be able to log miles running/cycling/walking tomorrow because I teach two Zumba classes on a Thursday. Sorry.

I'm going to struggle with this one. I teach two Zumba classes on a Thursday. Could we use this to convert our exercises to miles? https://aom3.americaonthemove.org/~/media/Tools/Activity_Conversion_Adult.ashx 1 mile is roughly 2000 steps so find your exercise and times the number by the number if minutes you do. Then…

I find it difficult to keep motivated in the gym so I do classes. Les Mills Body Combat, Body Step and Body Attack are high intensity and I break it up with spin and Zumba for a bit of variety. I have fab instructors who I've got to know and will push me harder (which helps loads). Glad to hear this week is going well.…

How exciting? A special group. (I think I need to get out more - lol).

1301 calories burned today. Exercises done. Bath and bed now.

How are we doing this week? Seems a few teams haven't turned numbers in so no news yet I'll let you know when I hear. I was gutted yesterday. My Zumba instructor got stuck in traffic so I didn't manage my usual two classes but a friend has asked me to do Body Combat with her after I teach my Zumba so I'll burn far bigger…

Have we lost someone?

Exercises done. Not a fan of the plank. I dread to think what I look like doing them!

Starting Measurements (31/10) Arms: 21" Chest: 36" Thighs: 42" Hips: 40" Waist: 35" Week 1 (7/11) Arms: 21" Chest: 35" Thighs: 42" Hips: 40" Waist: 34" 2" lost this week! I think it made up for the final week of the October Challenge.

170.3 this morning. Back in the right direction!

Wow! I want in on those spin classes!

Ok Ladies. Our amazing results are as follows. Drum roll please . . . Calories burned this week = 17819 Lbs lost this week = 9.3 I am so impressed! Well done to all and I hope we smash it again next week!

Thank you. I hate running so it's a mental rather than block when it comes to distance. Might stick to intervals next time. Had to take a rest day today. BTW I love your profile pic!

I'm one of those people who would total 4999 and do 10 jumbling jacks just to get over the line!

10/31- 1008 (step/zumba/cycling) 11/01- 687 (teaching zumba) 11/02 - 1124 (spin/body combat) 11//03 - 1131 (teaching zumbatomic/teaching zumba) 11/04 - 1073 (step/body combat) 11/05 - 625 (bridge to 5k) 11/06 - rest day Total= 5648 Yay!!!!!!!

Here is the signature picture I created if you would like to add it: Remember to change the IMG at the beginning and end to img.

Hello all. Hope you are all well and you're settling in with the challenge. I've seen some big numbers burned this week on your status' and I hope to hear good things about your weight loss. Just a reminder, numbers need to be in today. Please can you make sure you get your calories burned and this week's weight to me…

Thank you. I hope we all do well. I think being made accountable to others really helps.

Bump

Weighed in at 168.5lbs this morning so I'm over the moon! I think my 10k run yesterday helped me along. I'm actually taking a rest day today - first in a long time (although I may get the Wii out for a little play).
