I donated mine...some to charity and some to a co-worker. I like seeing them on her and realizing that I'm smaller than her now!! But it was hard -- there were a couple of favorites with memories that stayed behind in my closet for now. I've done the Goodwill shopping to get some "mid-loss" clothes... and I can't wait to…

Im on the every-other-day plan with 30DS due to my other exercise routines, but I"ll be competing Level 1 Day 5 tomorrow, then moving up to Level 2 for 2 weeks. Can't wait -- I'd forgotten just how hard JM works you in 25 minutes!!

Miles last week: 24.6 biking, 3.1 walking yesterday. Completed my first 5K today in 41:05 =) For today: 41:05 of running, plus 30 minutes of…

Yep... but that's what everyone was asking for =) We want to lose before the holidays!!! The crunches Jack mentioned are optional, but if you do them, let me know so we can add them to a team total. Something tells me there will be a bonus/reward if we do some!!
-
Since Jack just posted the challenges for MM... you can use the wood-cutters as your strength training if you want. Let's keep up the walk/run, as well as water!!!
-
OK...since we are all ready to go...... TEAM CHALLENGE IT IS!!! This is over-and-above whatever Tonya and Jack throw at us this week (potentially modified once we know what they are up to). We all seem to like the walk/run....so the challenge is 10 miles walk/run this week!!! If you bike ride, you can count 3 miles of…

If you go to the Warrior Dash website, they have a suggested training schedule. There's a schedule for newbies as well as for Warriors. They suggest beginning to train at least 12 weeks before the Dash. I hadn't heard about it in time to take part this year, so I'm hoping one comes to TN in 2012. So far, it hasn't been…

Let's keep it up!! We have all been doing great this week -- water is good, everyone's been eating their Fruits and Veggies, we've been doing our 21's and Jumping Jacks!!! Kudos to all of you -- these aren't easy, but you've persevered and we've ALL made contributions!! So far, our total is over 1500 and I'm still waiting…

Life got in the way of exercise yesterday, but today.... rode 13 more miles (makes 24.6 this week so far), plus did 70 sit-ups (and jumping jacks, and..... 30DayShred, level one... it's all in there!!) I've been downing water like crazy (averaging 14+ cups per day) and I think the plateau is busted :bigsmile: . I'll weigh…
-
Glad you're feeling better!!! Enjoy the rest of your weekend :happy:
-
I drink 100+ oz of water everyday (13 cups or more) -- often more like 16-18 cups. It makes a huge difference in my skin tone, and also helps keep me "regular". As far as trips to the bathroom, I've been able to "train" my body to bathroom breaks... it took a couple weeks, but now my body is used to the water intake.…
-
I'm down for the count with a a migraine today... Water's in, but exercise will have to be made up at a later date. I feel like I'm letting you all down -- so sorry!! I promise to be your chipper captain as soon as the hammer-yielding idiot in my head goes away and I can see without black dots dancing in front my eyes!!…

By the end of the first set he was panting and yelling at JM to "shut up already"......LOL He's decided I work out alot more than he realized =) Day 2 today, Zumba tomorrow, early/late day Thursday so…

I know it's been a tough journey, and frustrating at times -- but I'm so glad you started taking those baby steps! They've translated into a great loss, and are the first of many more to come!! I'm proud of all your hard work - you know I'm your biggest fan!! Thanks for being mine :love:

-
Congrats!! You look awesome :flowerforyou:
-
I started yesterday (11/5) as a "kick in the butt" to get off my plateau!! Perfect timing -- I need the accountability or I'll find a way to talk myself out of doing it :laugh:
-
My husband uses this to track our bike riding. Absolutely LOVE it!! My favorite part is having the ability to measure and track "new" paths that we hadn't been on before. We haven't been having any problems with it -- used it yesterday, actually to track a short (10-mile) ride. You may need to "reboot" the app.
