getting back to the boards... This week's challenges: 2/4 days of exercise 0/7 miles run 0/70 burpees 0/7 minutes of plank hold 1/5 posts on the board spin class later today. And then burpees :)

Ok, did the fitness test. Phew! It was hard. Run 1 mile - 12:30 (need to re-do for 1.5 miles but I might just keep it at 1 mile) Pushups in 1 min - 25 crunches in 1 min - 49 burpees in 1 min - 10 (these are hard!) plank hold time - 64 seconds Interesting to see the results in 9 weeks :) Rest of week has been good exercise…

I'm back! Last week was so-so. I was up about 1.5lbs for last week but am probably down that again by now. It's interesting how quickly I can lose some water weight. I completed a dietbet game last week (you bet you will lose 4% in 4 weeks). I was up 1.5lbs on the weigh-in morning but then did a 50 minute treadmill workout…

I had a good week last week. I need to get more consistent with daily food tracking. On the weekend, I biked, kayaked and walked on the beach. It was lovely. Back on the down side again of the roller coaster but I want to push further this week. Meeting with a personal trainer 2x this week. I'm going to be sore!

These are good. I also like the ones from Fitness Blender. They are a little longer (20 minutes) but take you through the reps with clear instructions. Here are a couple for our target areas: Butt & thigh workout http://youtu.be/m8AkyDAiRXo Arms http://youtu.be/oUychjqfO8I

I like the Fage 0% plain version, but I doctor it up with: for 1 cup of yogurt add: 1 tsp vanilla, 1 tsp cinnamon 1/2 packet stevia/truvia And I usually add in fresh blueberries or strawberries. Yum!

I would like to join. I went to the Biggest loser Resort in malibu (not the show, the related resort) for a week. It was awesome. I'd love to keep it going!
