  • WEEK 7: Just Breathe!!! We came in 1st in weight-loss before the advantages were handed out!!! :bigsmile: Even after other teams earned some advantages, we still came in 2nd this week -- that earned us a 1 lb. advantage for next week!!! WAY TO GO!!! Let's keep up the burning and losing!!!! Recap: Nutrition - meet or exceed…
  • Week 6 Report: Burpees -- all completed (and we officially hate them!!)

  • You are killing it!!! Way to go Leigh :bigsmile: Thursday: water -- 104 burpees - 20 calcium... I'll add a supplement and get it over calories -- 377 per HRM for my frigid run!! Plus burpees!!
  • Tuesday: water -- check 112+ Rest day for me, so no calories or burpees... they will get made up, tho. Calcium was under, too. Wednesday -- water -- 128 and counting burpees -- 30 (20 + 10 for Tuesday) calcium -- yes calories burned: 677 (plus whatever I burn doing crunches and burpees) woo hoo.... I'm feeling…
  • I'm lactose-intolerant too, so my calcium will be coming from a supplement... i never realized how low I was, so I guess this has been a good challenge for me!! :happy: I took a 40-minute walk today to ease the soreness in my legs :sad: , and did modified burpees.... tomorrow will be a "rest day" for my husband's Christmas…
  • WEEK 6: BURN THOSE CALORIES!!! 1. 20 burpees per day for Team 69ers, Waist Removers, Mind over Matter, and Flab-u-less. 30 burpees per day for Power Hungry. (30 per day for Team MM too!) These are our penalties for not reaching 1% loss :sad: BURPEE video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7_TBHno0Os&feature=related 2.…
  • JEALOUS!!!! I live about 30 minutes away from where KC grew up.... in fact, his dad used to coach at the high school next door to where I used to teach.... and i've never made it to a concert!!!! Lucky, lucky you!!!
  • Hey Team!! Just as a heads-up.... we all kind of struggled with weights this week. Even though we all worked hard (or as heard as I could....sorry) we are not going to make our 1% goal. Leigh (achampionsheart) lost the most from Saturday to Saturday (-3.5) which brought her back to where she was the week before. Marj…
  • Barely able to get anything done -- didn't get home after work/dinner/pick up kids and friends until after 9:00. Still, walked around school about 12 extra times (just one of those days -- running from one place to another for 40 minutes straight), plus seven trips around the store trying to find something cute to wear to…
  • Great job from everyone!!! Leigh -- you are putting us to shame with all your hard work! Way to go, girl!!! Thursday report: water: 120 oz; 24 donkey kicks each leg (yay, I'm caught up!!); 50 crunches; shuffle is waiting until next week because the back/forth still makes me dizzy (no penalty -- I've already checked in with…
  • Your captain is reporting that she was finally able to get in a workout (small, but at least it was a start!!) 15 minutes each: treadmill (walk, no running :ohwell: ), elliptical and stationary bike. Plus: 2 sets of 12 donkey kicks each leg, 50 bicycle crunches, and I tried the shuffle but only managed one minute before…
  • Monday: Water - 104 The exercises are going to have to wait until Wednesday. I'm still not up to par (in fact, I took today off work to rest and get caught up on stuff I didn't get to do over the weekend while i was so sick!!) and don't want to push it. It took me four hours just to do my Christmas trees this afternoon --…
  • THIS IS MAJOR!!!! Everyone needs to get behind Leigh and encourage her to cross the line to onderland this week!!!
  • Just heard from Tonya -- one change to the MM challenge: Weight loss is 1% not 2%. Definitely more do-able (about 2 lbs each) but let's work for 2% anyways and see if we can get close. It will only help us reach our goals -- and we need to be challenged to work harder and work smarter!! It's water and work-out time *\o/*…
  • Go to their main website -- www.c25k.com -- they have direct links to the downloads there.
  • I started walking with my husband around May. We'd walk maybe a mile 2-3 times a week. Then during the summer, as part of a challenge I was in, I tried running for the first time in over 25 years. I think I made it almost 100 feet, LOL. I've slowly worked my way to wogging (love the word!) longer distances, and wogged my…
  • Id love to be part of someones team -- I am majorly competitive and exercise daily!!
  • Awesome!! That gets us a head-start for next week!! Our goal is to lose 2% as a team -- that means each team member has to average 2% -- about 3-4 lbs each!! Week 5 RECAP: 1. Drink 100 ounces of water a day. (this is an MM challenge this time -- we've got to do it!!) 2. 12 Donkey kicks per leg a day. 3. 50 bicycle crunches…
  • Week 4 REPORT: Good week overall, considering it was a food-based holiday!!! Sodium: TNGirlyGirl -- under everyday pkiddy -- under 5/6 maureendonahue -- under 5/6 achampionsheart -- over 2+ days MarchelleLynne -- over 2+ days LegLifts -- everyone everyday 10K times: TNGirlyGirl -- 1:16 pkiddy -- sick/will make up…
  • I will if you still need members!!
  • TUESDAY: Water 100 oz (I'm getting my last few ounces through the stupid icky Theraflu I'm drinking, trying to stave off whatever is hurting my throat. I refuse to get what the kids have!!!!! Leg lifts: done 12x2xeach leg= 48 Miles: 3.25 on the elliptical (35 min) That has me at 6.45 already!!!! My 10K is done.... now to…
  • Monday report: Sodium -- under Legs -- 60 (I thought it was 15 on each leg LOL -- helps if I read the blog BEFORE I go to the gym!!!) Miles: 1 mile run at 13:00; 1.2 miles walk/run at 18:27; bike: 3 miles at 15:00 (converts to 1 mile). TOTAL miles: 3.2 water: 14x8= 112 oz today!!
  • We all need to remember this!! Make good choices -- and yummy ones!!! This is our LIFE and that means living it in all its glory!! Have a great Thanksgiving meal.... try to log what you can... and enjoy the day!! One day of a bit more than usual won't hurt us -- I'm planning on having a bit of everything that I want --…
  • I've lost the equivalent of just over $2million (US) if counted in $100 bills. I'd be willing to demonstrate if anyone wants to send me $2 million... :wink:
  • 6.2 miles TOTAL for the week -- NOT everyday!!! :flowerforyou: Re: water -- 100oz should be okay... I think some of your 128-153 oz days may have caught up to you :) don't forget that when we work out, our muscles "tear and repair" by filling the tears with water, so that's why we seem to retain water after hard workouts…
  • WEEK 4: Here we go!!! This week is pretty simple: 1. Stay under your sodium for at least five days between now and Saturday (today counts as far as I'm concerned!!) 2. Leg lifts: 12 reps on each side; 2 sets per leg per day 3. Walk or run a 10K.....don't panic!!! You can do this in parts.... first of all, a 10K is equal to…
  • Non-scale Victory -- those wonderful moments that show us how we re doing regardless of what the scale says. i.e. fitting a new size jeans, having someone else notice your weight-loss, any victory not related to the actual weight on the scale!!
  • ALL members met their proteins and fiber goals ALL members completed their woodchops Team completed 565 crunches this week We also set some team goals, and each member drank at least 80 oz of water everyday, plus we all completed walk/run miles (average of 8 miles each) and strength training at least three times this week…
  • I'm just waiting on a few final numbers before submitting the weekly team report -- I'll post it here also!! We've had a great week (except for losing Theresa!!!! :frown: ). I had been planning on a long bike ride this afternoon to finish my ten miles, but ended up sending my husband out alone so I could stay here with an…
  • btw - -we have lost one of our team members. TheresaRichardson is dropping out, so we are five. I elected not to bring another team member on board at this point. It would just confuse things, I think. We won't be hurt at the weigh-ins, since they are calculated by percentages. It may go against us at the team…
