You know, it was probably the non-stretching that did me in. I didn't stretch because I never do with the elliptical. But maybe since the treadmill is more run-y, I should have stretched before and after it. I did interval walking and running, so I don't think it was from running too long
-
@MissEESmith and @jessicakahn606 Definitely! I was getting really bored with the elliptical. It's always been my go to, but I was kind of dreading working out and I figured out it was because I was bored with it, so I switched. The backs of my knees kind of hurt from the treadmill I think though??? When I woke up this…

I tried the treadmill for the first time today since I got bored with the elliptical for cardio. It's surprisingly fun ... Or maybe that's just cuz it's new haha
-
@MissEESmith You got this!!!
-
@MissEESmith Omg that sounds delicious!
-
Yes!!!

The worst day in weeks. I had a dinner meeting today and I'm sure I blew my calories out the water ... No, out the world. I feel like I gained 15 pounds. Smh. Tomorrow will be a better day though!!

Way to go @fey1!! Hope everyone had a great start to week 3!!
-
Hi all! I hope everyone has had an excellent Sunday and is ready to kick off week 3 tomorrow. Stay awesome!
-
Thanks @MissEESmith! I hope everyone had a great day today! Tomorrow marks the end of week 2!

@MissEESmith, you always have such motivational words for us green teamers. I always look forward to your posts of the day :) So it's only fitting that we give you some back!! We're all rooting for your speedy recovery back to 100%! And congrats on still continuing your plank challenge. That's amazing!!
-
Thank you @jessicakahn606!

So I went to my little part time job after class and lo-and-behold, they've got cupcakes galore all over the office. But I somehow miraculously stayed away! Whoooo!
-
@MissEESmith your motivation is always contagious!
-
I hope everyone had an excellent day 3 of this week! I'm feeling so discouraged today. I've had a massive persistent headache all day and could barely drag myself to class, much less to the gym. This is the first day in weeks that I haven't gone to the gym and it feels just wrong @Jessicakahn606 Yay, that's awesome!…

Good morning from Texas y'all! I hope everyone has a great day 2, week 2! @fey1 Oh you're awesome! I think what really gets to me is the texture. For instance, I'll slap a little peanut butter on some celery, but as soon as I bite into it and start chewing, the texture of the celery really gets to me and I want to spit the…

Yay! I'm so proud of our team!! I hope everyone is off to a good start for week 2! My weakness is in the veggies. I truly hate vegetables. I'd love to work on getting more veggies into my diet but I'm not sure how when I can't even make myself eat them
-
Happy Sunday everyone! Our first weigh day as a team is here! Super exciting! I hope everyone has the results they are hoping for, but even if it's not quite what you wanted, remember, the scale doesn't tell the whole story. You could be losing inches as well! Getting discouraged is not allowed on the mean green fighting…

@MissEESmith I love your helmets! Those are the cutest ever!
-
Yeah, I average 350 calories burned every time I exercise 30+ minutes. So, for the week, as of yesterday, I was at exactly 1700 calories burned through exercise. I'm not sure I'll ever make that 3500
-
TGIF! I hope everyone is having a great day 5! @fey1 definitely! I feel happier, have more energy, and focus more in class. It's so great. I'm even able to exercise for greater durations now. I started out fighting my way through 30 minutes, needing a break every 5 minutes. Today I just blew through 40 minutes on the…
-
@MissEESmith I love this! Have a great day 4 everyone!!
-
Oh! And as for water ... So, I have a Fitbit and this is where I heard of this app from, but I'm almost certain it works by itself as well. It's called Thermos (how creative lol). It's apparently a "Bluetooth smart water bottle" that connects to an app and keeps track of your water intake based on how much passes through…
-
Day 3 going strong! I hope everyone had a great day 3 and is ready for yet another fresh start tomorrow! @jessicakahn606 That's so smart! I wish I could do that but I literally cannot make myself eat raw veggies. If I eat them, it's steamed or with peanut butter @fey1 omg chocolate lol! But what you're doing now sounds…
-
Whoever came up with the "terrible twos" obviously hasn't met this green team! How about "terrific twos" instead! Have a terrific day 2 everyone! Whoot whoot! @RStoken welcome!! We're happy to have you! @fey1 Yes! Especially when it's late at night and I'm studying. I just want to snack like crazy! If I let myself, I could…
-
@jessicakahn606 Thanks for volunteering! @fey1 You're not late at all! Welcome!! We are glad to have you!
-
Can I nominate myself NOT to be it? I honestly probably wouldn't keep up with it all that well. I procrastinate with homework as is lol
-
@MissEESmith Oh yay! I love college football (well, when Baylor is playing, otherwise not so much lol)! Welcome to the Green Machine!! @jessicakahn606 had a great idea that we could add each other on here for good communications as well, so be looking for a request from us!
-
@SueSueDio Thank you so much!
-
Thanks all! I'm just super impatient. I've been trying to eat better, and have been pretty good about eating around 1200 calories a day, and I try to watch the labels and such. I'm in college and it's really hard to buy healthier food because it's pricey, and then have time to fix it too. I'm trying though @SueSueDio…
