Well, another day without a workout. Good thing my Piyo challenge starts on Monday! Hopefully that will get me back into the swing of things; working out everyday and with some double workouts (I want to keep up with my running). I am loving the Piyo. Did another one of the workouts yesterday and it really made me sweat!…

Steady at 128! Hope I can keep it there!

My goals for this month: 1. Maintain my current weight 2. Complete c25k 3. Workout 6 days a week 4. Work on planning meals and eating better

I missed one week of not working out 6 days Lost 4 pounds!! Didn't do so good with eating healthy Brenda

Happy Tuesday everyone! Today I did Piyo. I am loving this! Joanne, Piyo is pilates and yoga combined - strength training and stretching. It's not as slow as yoga though which I love, but they don't go so fast like Jillian MIchaels does in her Yoga Inferno dvd. It's right in the middle. I had said earlier that I don't burn…

Today is a rest day, but I think I will try another of my Piyo dvds. I've done one and really like it. I don't burn many calories (at least with the one I did), but the stretching really feels great. Lisa, what a great day yesterday! No kids and supper with DH - love it! If your family is anything like mine, those days are…

Happy Saturday! Marielle - love the pictures! They always make me smile (ok, sometimes I chuckle a little too)! Wow 4 am, I haven't stayed out that late since I was in my early 20s - good for you!! Enjoy your quiet day! Lisa, great job on the bbq all week. It's usually 7:30 or 8pm when we eat supper as well. Makes it tough…

I'm a day late in the weigh in, but at 127.6 this morning. No loss....no gain! Congrats to those with losses, great job!

Hello all! Well, I forgot to weigh this morning. Kind of how my whole week has gone. Took today off from work to go to town with my husband and son. Ate bad food, but had a lot of fun with the family! During the summer the three of us don't get much family time with my work and my husbands hay farming. So, as Maureli said,…

Just have a second to log before getting my son tucked in. Congrats on the weight loss Pam! So awesome! My week has been crazy and eating habits bad. Feel like I've "lost it" this week. Haven't exercised for the last two days either. Need to get back into the groove. Need to catch up on all the happenings as well!!

Hello all! Once again I've been out for a couple of days. Just got caught up. Sounds like everyone has been very busy!! Work is still crazy and I've been having to work at home on weekends/evenings as well to keep up so haven't had much extra time. I'm getting my food logged, but that's about it. Lisa, congrats on the new…

Down 1.6 pounds. Happy Birthday LunaStar! Hope you decided to get the cake. Birthdays do only come around once a year!

Hi all! It's been a couple days since I've checked in. Work has been crazy and I've been working in the garden in the evenings. We have a huge veggie garden and the weeds got pretty thick! Today I took a rest day. Yesterday I made it through w5d3 of c25k - 20 minutes straight of running! Splurged a little at lunch today,…

My name is Brenda I'm from South Dakota I joined this group to help improve my eating habits and learn a new, challenging workout My goal is to maintain my current weight (just hit my goal weight last week!) and become stronger, more flexible and healthier I love to spend time with my family and garden I am an executive…

Today I started Week 5 of c25k. Went pretty well. Bought some new tennis shoes yesterday that have a lot more support than my old shoes. Funny how that can make a big difference in how the run feels! Lisa, I'm sorry to hear about your father. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Pam, enjoy your kid free…

Down .2 today. Have a great weekend!

I ran today, c25k. Felt pretty good. Will have to check out Level 2 of killer buns dvd tomorrow! I have the thigh issue as well (hence why I am attempting the killer buns and thighs dvd). I'm really close to my goal weight, but my thighs still need a lot of work!! I need to work on my eating habits. I'm staying within my…

Today I did JM Killer Buns and Thighs. It was awesome! My thighs will be hurting tomorrow, but it was nice break from the running. Pam, thanks for sharing the pics! It looks beautiful there! Siannah, no worries on the misspell! I agree with Emy, drinking green tea works for me as well. Emy, 2 miles in 32 minutes is great!…

Today I did w4d1 - wow, that was a tough one. Wasn't sure I was going to make it through the last five minute jog, but pushed through it. Thanks for the link Siannah - I'll check it out! I had to google Powerscourt Gardens as well, but it looks amazing! Maureen, sorry to hear about your apple tree. We have (actually had)…

Today I ran. Felt pretty good after skipping yesterday. Finished week 3 of c25k. Siannah, you made me laugh with the "makey-uppey"! I've been reading up on it a little more. It's a 60 day program. It sounds challenging and I love a challenge! Have a great Sunday!

I think I'm going to take a day off today. Body just didn't feel like running, although I just read about Lisa having such a great run (awesome job!!) and now it makes me want to run!! Might end up on the treadmill yet today. I've been reading about Piyo - it's apparently like Pilates and yoga put together. Has anyone…

Happy Friday! Hope everyone has a safe and fun weekend. I'll be going to a family potluck tonight. Always so much good food, so will have to try really hard to be good! I did w3d2 of c25k today. Will try to get a walk in before we go too. Maureen, I'm not sure what my plan is after c25k. Haven't thought that far ahead yet!…

I hit my goal weight today - 130.0!!! Woohoo! Thinking I'm going to set a new goal to lose 5 more pounds, but for today I am very happy!

Hello all! Missed checking in yesterday, took me most of the day to get the veggie garden weeded and then mowed the lawn (takes about five hours to mow everything). Was a beautiful day out though and is nice again today, so will be outside as much as possible. I've done c25k every day now and I'm loving it!! I'm thinking I…

Hello all!! Had a great shopping day yesterday with my son. Got in 12,000 steps - yep my legs were tired!! My poor 7 year old was exhausted, but we had fun. Today I did a Jillian Michaels yoga DVD. It was kind of hard to follow and I don't feel like I got much of a workout. Will probably run yet today unless I get a chance…

Today I did c25k W2d2. Normally Sunday is my rest day , but since I'm going shopping tomorrow I won't get my regular workout in. I am hoping to 10,000 steps tomorrow though! Cindy, I live in SD. It's been raining a lot here and when not raining, it's hot and humid. It is great on the farm. We have a huge veggie garden and…

My July goals are: Daily logging Workout 6 days a week (at least 3 of these days doing C25K) Lose 4 pounds Eat healthy

I achieved one of my goals, I completed JMBR. I did pretty well with eating healthy, I at least cutout all the unhealthy snacking I used to do. Can't entirely run a 5k yet, but am working on it! The ab challenge got me after week two.

Started week two of C25K today. Cindy, running at sunset sounds wonderful! I run on a treadmill and stare at the wall. I live on a farm and would love to run outside, but there are two many "critters" and people drive crazy and fast in the country. Much safer on the treadmill! Enjoy your long run Lisa! Have a great day!!

Today I completed JM 90 Body Revolution - woohoo!! Thought this day would never come! Now I can focus on C25K. We can do it Cindy - we just need to stay strong and think positive!! Pam, the message/facial sounds awesome! I've never had a message, but always thought it would be very relaxing and "de-stressing". Lisa, I bet…
