Hi Pink Team! How is everyone doing? I feel bad because I haven't checked in daily with everyone, so I'm obviously not going to be getting that point from the challenge this week. I also majorly slacked on exercise on Friday & Saturday due to my aunt & uncle visiting, so looks like I'll have to do some hard work these next…

Hi girls. I've been super busy with family in here yesterday and today. I'll post more tomorrow. I'm going to spend time with my hubby. Have a great night!

Here's today's info: 25 minutes of Walking, 3.5 mph, brisk pace burned 96 calories 45 minutes of Wii Just Dance 2 burned 205 calories 10 minutes of Calisthenics, home, light/moderate effort burned 36 calories I did the arm exercises for today and I have already exceeded my calcium for the day.

Hi everyone :) I have been tracking calcium for a few months and would never reach or exceed it, unless I had ice cream since I don't drink milk and hardly ever eat yogurt. But, yesterday, I decided to go and get some Calcium vitamins since I would really need them now for this challenge. As luck would have it, I went into…

Glad I could help :) How is everyone doing tonight? I wanted to let you all know that my aunt & uncle are going to be here starting tomorrow until Saturday to visit. I'll still be logging in and stuff, but probably won't be as "chatty" and I know I most likely won't exercise on Friday. I'm really excited to see them, as my…

I've been tracking my calcium for months and I NEVER have gotten what I was supposed to (since I don't drink milk and rarely ever eat yogurt). I went to CVS (drugstore) today and they had Calcium Vitamins on clearance for $1.45 a bottle, so I purchased all 3 bottles they had. Between 1 of those, my 1 multi-vitamin and then…

So this week is going to be REALLY hard for me. I just read through those exercises we are supposed to do and just those alone will be a challenge. I don't have dumbbells, but do have a resistance band, so I'll be using that instead. As for the stairs, I don't have any in my house. So what I did today was on our way back…

Here's my weigh in: Starting MFP Weight 177 (My heighest weight was 223 when starting in my journey in September, 2010) Starting SAHMU Weight 141 Week 1 Weight 141 Week 2 Weight 138 Week 3 Weight 138 Week 4 Weight 137 Week 5 Weight 135 Week 6 Weight 135 No loss again :( I completed all challenges this week for a total of…

Here's Monday's exercise: 29 minutes of Wii EA Sports Active 2 burned 202 calories 19 minutes of Wii tennis burned 77 calories I was under my calories, too. I'm still working on today's stuff and will post when I complete it.

Here's my emotional challenge: I don't really remember having an "aha" moment. It's just be a gradual change each day for me. Last September, I figured "why not walk Caeleb to/from school?" and then that made me think "why not try and eat smaller portions?" then that made me think "why not try to eat a little healthier?"…

I'm under my Carbs for today and here's my exercise info: 45 minutes of Walking, 3.5 mph, brisk pace burned 175 calories 40 minutes of Wii Just Dance 2 burned 196 calories 60 minutes of Cleaning, light, moderate effort burned 153 calories (I actually cleaned for over 2 1/2 hours, but I don't think I burned as much as MFP…

I forgot to add that I was under my Fat yesterday. Today, I'm under Sodium (barely) and here's my exercise stuff: 20 minutes of playing catch (DH & I played catch at the pool for more than 20 minutes, but I rounded down) burned 51 calories 5 minutes of swimming (the 4 of us went to the pool for almost 2 hours, but I barely…

Mine said/showed Shirley Temple (as a little girl).

I was proud of myself today. I woke up at 6:30 as I had planned and got everyone up and ready (DH for work, Caeleb for school, and me getting Casyn dressed). I walked Caeleb to school (pushing Casyn in the stroller) and then walked the long(er) way home and then Casyn and I headed out grocery shopping. We went to 3…

My vote for the recipe is Tayla's recipe of the meatloaf. Sounds yummy! :) Here are my stats for this week: Emotional challenge- 1 pt Cardio challenge- 1 pt Strength Challenge- 6 pts (I completed all of the individual strengths) food challenge- 1 pt Total - 9 pts.

Just wanted to add that I just got home from walking to Caeleb's school to pick him up (and walking home). Not such a great idea in the 102 degree weather. OMG....I am sweating TONS! Anyways, in our 15 minute walk I burned 48 addtional calories (although it feels like a bunch more).

Finally found a recipe that we would actually like and eat here. It's from weelicious.com, but with some changes. Her recipe is Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins (http://weelicious.com/2011/05/25/banana-chocolate-chip-muffins/#comments). I changed it up a bit, by omitting the salt, honey, and chocolate chips, and adding extra…

Well, I am happy to say that I met the calorie burned goal for this week and even went over by 5, LOL. You all are awesome, by the way!!! Here's the breakdown of today's exercises: Aerobics, Low Impact for 30 minutes burned 171 calories (Ab Attack on Netflix) Wii Boxing for 10 minutes burned 56 calories Calisthenics, home,…

You can make brownies lower calorie (not necessarily healthier) by using a can of diet soda in place of the other added ingredients. Just mix one can of diet soda and brownie mix with a mixer until blended then follow baking directions on the box. It does taste a little different, but I like it.

WTG Michelle! That's great!! I'd LOVE to be in the single digits in clothes, I'm so jealous :)

Happy Monday everyone :) My exercises today consisted of the Leg Raises, which I just completed. I also did 52 minutes of the Wii EA Active 2 and burned 325 calories. I'm still looking for the kid friendly recipe, but will find one either tonight or tomorrow.
