WantToBeMoreActive

Good Monday morning all. I feel pretty good about the weekend. I worked out on Sunday and my knee isn't giving me any grief at all. My hubby went out to dinner Sunday night. I skipped the wine and had a fairly healthy meal and 2 bites of my hubby's dessert :bigsmile: The meal portion was bigger than I needed so I'll have…

well done :bigsmile:

l_mahloy what is p90x????????????????

Hello everyone. My weight stayed the same this week. I know it is because I haven't been doing much cardio since I hurt my knee skiing in February. I was a bit leary of upping it as a yoga class a week and a half ago made for some not nice pain. I actually weigh in on Wednesdays. So when I looked at the scale this week I…

Well done team !!!! :bigsmile: I'm upping my cardio this week in hopes of seeing the scale move next week :happy: :happy: :happy: I did an aerobics class yesterday and today :wink:

Weigh in day - I stayed the same...at least it's not a gain. I know I have to up my cardio. My knee is feeling better so I did an aerobic workout yesterday and today. I want to see the scale move next week! :bigsmile:

welcome Laurie :flowerforyou: I've been here since January. This is a great site. :smile: Good luck :bigsmile:

I know!!! Jason, Kathryn & I want to know what p90x is. Please don't keep us in suspense :laugh:

Awesome jomickey...whooo hooo....:bigsmile: I on the other hand stayed the same this week :grumble: ...I guess I have to up my cardio :laugh: And so on that note I did a cardio dvd this morning :bigsmile: I hope my knee can handle it :wink: Good luck everyone :happy:

welcome & good luck :flowerforyou:

Hello 40+ers, I'd like to join and be part of your group :smile: I'm 43, married for one year and wanting to get fit! I'm guessing at the weight I want to get down to because I've never been that small before. I've always been slightly overweight so I don't know what number I want to get to. I'm aiming at a pound a week…

I'm with Kathryn on this too Jason. I've been seeing all the postings about p90x, could you give us the readers digest version of what it's all about??? :bigsmile:

welcome back jomickey!!! :flowerforyou: Way to go team, what a great week :smile:

You might want to check out summer 2009 will be different. As a final challenge for the summer we're going to post pictures of us in swimsuits...talk about motivation http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/42063-summer-2009-will-be-different-challenge

I agree. :smile: I read that when you decide to do something, like get fit & lose weight, the universe sometimes sends you obstacles, basically to see how serious you are or like you were saying to make sure your foundation really is solid. Like in my case I went on a skiing holiday in February and hurt my knee on the…

So I was inspired by phetzgetfit's yoga challenge and rembered how great yoga makes me feel :heart: I thought I'd get back into it and since it's been 5 weeks since my ski accident and my knee, although not totally healed, should be able to handle it. :smile: That was yesterday, the pain in my knee woke me up this morning…

Way To Go!!!!! :flowerforyou: Milestones are great!!! :bigsmile:

No worries. It actually took me awile to figure it out myself :laugh: Take the amount of weight lost so far (for me 12 lbs), divide this by your starting weight (170 lbs for me) Take that # and multiply by 100 to get a percent. So for me it was 0.0705 x 100 = 7.05% For this week's check in I'm down another pound :bigsmile:…

I just calculated my % weight lost so far, 7 % since January, yeah me :bigsmile:

I lost a pound this week, I'm 158 now. Lynn it can be verrrrrrrrrry frustrating watcing the scale and becoming happy or depressed about what you see. Tell yourself you want to make a lifestyle change so that you can be healthy and that you are going to stick with it. Think about the foods that will get you where you want…

For supper I had some nacho chips with cheese melted on top - YUMMY And because there wasn't many naco chips left, I had some homemade potato skins!!!!

I'm a Canadian living in Dorset, England. I think the Queen is pretty cool Maximus.

I dug out my capri pants yesterday. They were way too tight at the end of the summer and now they fit and are actually a bit loose - yeah me!!! :blushing: My knee is coming along after injuring it 4 weeks ago & the physiotherapist said today I could start biking. I went for an hour walk today and did an upper body workout…

Great work everyone!!!! :flowerforyou: :drinker: :flowerforyou: I'm glad to see you turned things around jomickey and had a weight loss this week, WTG :bigsmile:

I am down one pound this week. :happy: I am super excited because that takes me down into the 150s :bigsmile: I weigh 159 now. I'm also pleased because with my knee injury I'm not doing the cardio I used to do. good luck to everyone with their weigh-ins today!!!!! :wink:

My weight today is 159, I lost one pound and I am sooooooo excited to be in the 150's now!!! :bigsmile: Good luck to everyone else :flowerforyou: Go Team Canada Go :heart:
