  • Just started this challenge, only logging runs toward distance traveled.
  • I like the idea! Count me in.
  • You can do it! I find leaving my gym bag in sight of the door when leaving to to be a useful trick in reminding myself to go.
  • I have residual workout amnesia -- I see myself as more fit/active than I am. I forget that I'm not currently working out like I was once occasionally and do 2 silly things as a consequence: 1) eat like I'm still running 6-8 miles a day, 4 days a week, and having a long 12+mile run on the weekend; 2) think I still have the…
  • Oh. Neat. (and sorry but I can't resist) Run faster, winter is coming. :)
  • Okay... dumb question from me. What is the GoT challenge?
  • So, I hopped on the scale the morning after returning from a week away for work and read 146.9. I posted on my page about hoping that some of it was water weight from the salty food (Southern German food I find relatively salty compared to what I make at home). I did a lot of walking but not a lot of working out -- only…
  • Level 3, go you!!!
  • I'm going to go with measuring and see how that works out. I am also going to try increasing distance on my runs a few times a week.
  • Tomorrow I will: Walk +10K steps (maybe closer to 15) 30 day shred Keep within my calories Run if I'm really, really motivated.
  • I want to be down 2 lbs. I have not been losing lately -- I've more or less plateaued. I need a good kickstart.
  • Okay. I redid my measurements with a good measuring tape. I'm going to use these as my starting measurements (because I'm rebooting my 30DS), though I may swap up to level 2 tomorrow because level 1 was mostly easy, even doing the "advanced" side of things.
  • I have a cup (it's a teacup, but it's still a cup), but it's not the same as having a 32oz bottle of purified water. The water in the building at work tastes not great -- we have a lot of minerals in the water in this area of the country.
  • I will be re-starting 30DS too. We had a heat wave in Belgium last week that made life miserable. There is no air conditioning at home/in the office. As a result, I couldn't stay hydrated or sleep well or get motivated to workout. I did try running, and it was horrible and I felt bad afterwards. This week is much more…
  • Today I will: Get a good workout in (running and something strength,maybe 30day shred) drink 64oz water (I forgot my water bottle this morning, so I am behind) Stay under my calories
  • No change here, but that's not surprising considering I've not been working out most of the week.
  • Today I will: make 10k steps stay within my calorie goals run 30 min without stopping (probably somwhere closer to 2.75 mi rather than 3, depends on the heat) 30-day shred (reboot day 1)
  • Hello Ladies. Sorry I disappeared for a week. I have been traveling (and doing tons of walking but no Shred). I was back on Sunday, but have yet to get back to it, as a result it feels like almost a week since I did any 30ds. I'm hoping to reboot today (I ran/did a track work out on Monday and thought I was going to die…
  • Today I'm traveling, so the only goal I'll set is to make my 10K steps.
  • 145.3 this morning on the scale. The scale's gone down 0.7lbs, but I'm not convinced it's actually moving.
  • Thanks. It's a big step for me--although I've run marathons in the past, I injured myself badly and have only been cleared to run since September. I've been taking it slow and careful building up my endurance again.
  • Today I will: Meet yesterday's goals (because yesterday I didn't--I spent too much time at work and bailed on the workout after I got home and made dinner super-late).
  • I think tea length is a nice length -- one you don't see much of anymore. I agree about the above the knee looks too. That and I always am nervous about bending over in an above the knee dress. For me, the perfect length is an inch or two below the knee.
  • @shadow2soul, I love your tracking calendar. Very organized and motivating. This weekend, I found level 1 easy with 3/5 lb weights. Moving to level 2 today -- we'll see how it goes. :smile: I can't recall how I felt about level 2 the last time I did the workout.
  • I want to be running 10k on Saturdays instead of 5k. I want to have lost about 5lbs, which as the scale hasn't moved reliably in a few weeks I'm not sure will happen. (The scale has been doing wild zig-zags up and down between days)
  • Today I will: 30-day shred 30 min cardio of some sort (it's supposed to rain all day, so this may be yoga, indoor workout of some sort, or dancing around the house like a maniac) Stay under my calorie goal
  • Able to run 3 miles without stopping. :smile:
  • I usually do pushups or situps during commercial breaks while watching TV. I have also been in offices wehre we did challenges and would do a set number an hour every day -- so it only takes a minute but over the course of the day you end up doing 100 or more if you're doing 10+ each time.
  • Fabulous goals!! I especially like the wall pushups and the coworker convincing. :smile:
  • Thanks. I seem to be stuckat 146. I've been floating between 145 and 146 for the last couple of weeks. Started the 30-day shred to hopefully mix it up enough and get to losing again.
