I am in the states, but work graves. The only reason I work graves is because day care is way too expensive!!!! (I'm just very sleep deprived now though)

I think that sounds like a great idea! I know I would try to accomplish the 3500 calories most weeks!

My tuesday was much better than Monday. Monday total was 516. I did Insanity and Yoga Tuesday's total was 771 and that was Insanity and running. That makes my totals so far 1287. When I get home from work here in a bit, I will be doing Insanity, and then later in the day, i'll probably go for another little run!

Oh, and milk type products, like a glass of fat free milk, or some plain fat free yogurt.

I know that a Baked Potato actually end up having more potassium per serving than bananas. Raisins are a really good source of potassium too. Along with apricots, cantaloupe, spinach, lima beans, prunes/ prune juice and tomato sauces. Those are all pretty high in potassium.

Eat super late. If you skip dinner and than go to bed and don't eat untill breakfast, your body starts fasting and your metabolism will start slowing down. My husband ends up working late and missing dinner with us because of meetings and such a couple times a month, so I make sure to pack him some fruit and a sandwich…

Great article! I love interval training and hate it at the same time. This reminds me why I do it though! Thanks!

yum!!!! I'm loving the sound of all these recipes :wink:

Bump!

I couldn't agree more! My home or neighborhood is my gym because my time is very limited! I always get my yoga or pilates routines from youtube though! I love them!

Well, I got in 516 calories burned today doing insanity and some yoga. Tomorrow will be a bigger burn though because I am adding on a 2.5 mile run in the afternoon. I couldn't do my run tonight because my hubby worked late and I had no sitter! So I should be able to catch up to where I need to be I think by tomorrow!

I was wondering the same thing! I didn't lose much though last week :grumble: I started adding in some strength training to my cardio and I found that I was ALWAYS HUNGRY!!! It'll take my body a bit to get used to this and then it will start losing (hopefully) I also know that my body loves to retain water How was everyone…

Count me in on this challenge too! I usually get pretty close, but have never actually reached 3500. This week will be the week!

Purple Team Here! SW: 174.8 CW: 174 My struggles this week was not being prepared at work with food. I kept not taking any, then halfway through my shift would be starving, so I would make me something out of their processed crap!! For a health care type facility, their food planner and shopper should be fired cuz she…

Definitely yes!!!! My back fat is the worste part of my body :grumble: I dont know if I have ever not had back fat though. Even when I was 30 pounds lighter, it was still there...

I'm asking for new running shoes and HRM this year for Christmas! I really want Turbo Fire too, but that may be asking a little too much... maybe I'll get it for Valentines day tho!!!

You all are soooo very inspirational! And everyone is looking AMAZING!

I'm Tari, and I'm purple team! and plannin on kickin some *kitten*!!! I kinda just got persuaded to do the Moab 1/2 marathon on March 19th so I've got 18 weeks of serious training to do because at this point, I can only run 3 miles. But that serious training is going to help me drop some poundage and help the purple team…

My name is Tari and I am on the PURPLE TEAM!. I weigh in at 174.8. I struggle with my saturday night beer drinking habit:grumble: goal is to not drink like that this weekend. I am very grateful for my children and husband who love me no matter what my weight is!

Sounds delicious! Thanks!

I always seem to have an incredibly sore back after doing dead lifts. I focus on keeping my back in good form, but still pain. I am going to keep the" thrust your hips forward" in mind and try again. This looks like a great workout to add to my lifting days, hopefully I can get it right this time! Thanks

Great info! Thanks

I'd like to join in on this competition! Sounds fun!

That's awesome!!! hopefully after this challenge, I will have made a habit of always doing that also!!!

Thanks. I decided to put that it was okay and I'll call later today and just let them know. Hopefully they are okay with it!!!!

hey night shift peeps! Sorry I've been MIA for the last bit. It's been pretty crazy here at work. Which is why I need your help ASAP!!! I am in the process of filling out an application for another job at another hospital. I will still be working nights, so don't worry! You'll still be seeing me :wink: Anyway, what do you…

You look amazing!!! Great job :wink:

ahh... I LOVE days like that!

I decided to give up my gym membership and start on beachbody products after my youngest was born 4 years ago. During that 4 years I have done, Turbo Jam, Insanity, Chalean Extreme, Hip Hop Abs, and Brazil Butt Lift. I love them ALL! My favorites are probably Insanity or Chalean Extreme.

That was a great read! Thank you for sharing that with us!!!
