Good morning all!! Just completed day 2 of bootcamp and boy and I feeling the burn! It is 45 minutes of what feels like pure torcher, but at the end I feel soooo good! I have set mini goals for myself within the class of running further distances everyday, and today I doubled my time from Monday! I was so proud of myself!…

3500 calories equal 1 lb......if you gained 4.5 lbs, you ate 15750 cals OVER your daily amount your SUPPOSED to eat..... I'm thinking it was probably water weight or something like that.....if the food was real salty (like chinese, or japenese or mexican food) it could just be the sodium causing your body to retain…

I LOVE frozen grapes!! everytime I have people over and they see my grapes in the freezer they laugh, but they are so delicious!

ok maybe I am just dumb but WHAT is THAT???? it sounds painful so I doubt I even TRY that! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

COngrats I know that was hard work but I have no doubt you will agree its worth it!

I have already drank all of my water for the day plus another 16 ozs! I think i will probably have one more bottled water, and then treat myself to 1 glass of sweet tea with supper.

yeah didn't consider that! Well try doing it on your tippy toes! I'm telling you there is some serious burn in it! :bigsmile:

anybody tried to do a wall sit in HEELS!!! ok now THAT is a real leg work out! I only last 20 seconds that way! :frown:

BUMPITY BUMP BUMP~:tongue:

yay for you!! I love it when people finally start to notice all the hard work I have put into losing! it makes you appreciate all those hours of exercize and all those 'bad food" temptations you've beat out!

yeah I will take a weightloss anyway I can get it at this point! lol. :laugh: :laugh:

ok I'll admit, when I had scales at home I weighed before and after bathroom trips, and yeah it was always interesting to see the scales go DOWN!

the movers and the shakers sounds like a great name to me! I drank 8 bottles of water yesterday, so I doubled my 64 oz challenge! Your right though, I shoulda quit sooner than I did, cause I had to get up in the night go potty too!

Congrats on the win Countindown!!! :drinker: [/quote] THANKS!!!!

Well I weighed in this morning and I was down 1 lb, not alot but better than nothing! I went WAY over my calories on Friday so I wasn't really very surprised by my outcome. I am really sore from my "bootcamp" class, but I went ahead and worked out this morning anyway and am so glad I did cause I feel so much better now. I…

Luckily I am in an office all by my lonesome self, so the air gets set to whatever I want it on! And have the time I still freeze myself!

at least when you come back from "napping" in the bathroom, they can't smell it on you like the smokes! :wink:

I would have to say I love what it does to my body, but while I am doing them, I HATE PLANKS!!!!!!!!!! they are killer!!!

I haven't posted my weigh in for the day, because I forgot to weigh in at the gym this morning, and I refuse to have those devilish scales at my house, so, I will weigh-in in the morning and post....hopefully good things will come along with that! I did start my "bootcamp" at the YMCA this morning, and I absolutely love…

water is fine with me, I am TERRIBLE about getting all my water drank! Thanks for the challenge!

I would say do a exercize one this week and food next week and switch out each week....and Mondays sounds good to me!

sure why not? I'm always up for a challenge! :drinker: to a new challenge!

I have no idea? I haven't seen any of the bond movies!

I haven't been a member long, but I have already come to learn that it is NO shock, that Maximus would do Monday if she were hot!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Is ANYBODY surprised??? :tongue:

if you can take your mind off the craving for 5 minutes they say you will lose the craving......or simply get rid of all the junk food so you don't have to have willpower........that's what I did! :bigsmile:

find you a GOOD seamstress and let them become your BEST friend! especially when its an outfit you really like or its a new outfit and its already too big....if you get a good seamstress they can hem/take up/take in/ WAY more than they can let out...sure it costs money, but so does buying new clothes!

1. WHAT I WEAR TO THE GYM: stretchy, not spandex, shorts, and a tank top 2. MY FAVORITE EXERCISE IN THE MORNING: the ab machines, I love being able to feel my muscles in my stomache move! 3. MY FAVORITE HEALTHY MEAL: my oatmeal every morning after working out. 4. MY MAKE ME FEEL SEXY ROUTINE: wearing high heels. 5: MY…
