  • Well welcome to our PUSH YOURSELF challenge! Have yo seen the original posting that has our requirements?
  • Way to go you are only 1 minute behind me for your weekly minutes! NICE! Now, why not be proud of that one pound? You are doing more working out, you are pushing yourself longer/harder, you are building muscle, and you are going to see a bit of a slow down! Plus if you aren't feeding your body more calories with the…
  • Here is my results for Week Three, day three I did 39 minutes walking the dog and burned, per my HRM, 373 calories I did a 40 minute session with my trainer that was half and half strength/cardio and burned, per my HRM, 704 calories I have had 18 glasses of water, thus far, but more to follow I have done 242 minutes of…
  • Doing good! Think of it this way! You are 1/3 done with four days left. You can do it, you can do it!
  • Okay, let's approach it this way! First of all, you do not have to apologize to any one of us. We are all just participating in a challenge and it is us that have to challenge ourselves. So, no apologies to any of us. Now, second, let's think this way! "Okay, it's day three of week three, remember we run Monday through…
  • Now what on earth possessed yo to do this barefoot? It hurts my feet just thinking about it!

  • Way to go! Great work! Nasty here, too. I really find this bad weather we are having in ND bringing my mood down and making a little harder to push myself. So, let's both just remember our challenge and keep plugging away. You are doing great!
  • This is such FANTASTIC news. Way to go! You are seeing results from all of your hard work.
  • Way to go and glad to see you back here. We have lost so many people since this challenge began and I am certainly glad you are not one of them.
  • Way to go Beth, you are doing awesome! The pool sounds soooo good. I think swimming works more of the entire body and is better for you than running, so that will be perfect. I have recently found a new love of swimming. Oh, I get tired. If I sit down in the middle of the afternoon I will fall asleep and when I finally sit…
  • OKAY EVERYONE, day two of week three! Let's get moving. Go out and rock it and show me what you got! It's dreary, gloomy, dark, and yucky looking here plus we are under a winter storm warning, (unbelievable), and have the chance of over 6 inches of snow. BUT, I am off to go do running and walking then if it holds off I am…
  • THIS IS WHAT EMMALEIGH DID YESTERDAY, DAY ONE OF WEEK THREE: Good evening guys! In keeping with this challenge, I really pushed it tonight. After my run I was rationalizing with myself with I did not have to do P90X (It was late, I was tired, I had already run, and I could do in the morning and skip Plyo) and then I…
  • Don't forget we have started week 3 and to post everything on that thread now!
  • Well first of all it isn't a scheme! Diet pills, diet gimmicks, and such are schemes! I don't consider 190 fat but realize you want to lose weight! I don't know exactly what there is to say to you except this is a lifestyle change and you have to be ready to change! I don't think there is any better way, or more effective…

  • I know it is hard as you want to see, via the scale and the mirror, that everything you are doing is meaning something. Let me tell you it all means something. You will see those results. It may take awhile longer or it may be tomorrow. Every one's bodies are different and there is just know way to know when you will see…
  • You most certainly can get in on this challenge. We just started day one, of week 3, today. Here is the link to the original post so you know what the requirements are! Welcome! http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/205120-6-week-push-yourself-challenge?page=3#posts-2843648
  • This was from Jillian Michaels FB page today and I thought it would fit in nice with our challenge: Challenge! Are you up for it!? FITNESS: Try a class you have never taken like Power Yoga, Bar Method, etc. FOOD: Do not eat out once! Pack lunches & cook. See how much money you save & how much weight you lose. MOTIVATION:…
  • No reason to apologize for having the flu. In fact, when you are sick you should NOT exercise because you are just taking away the valuable energy that your body needs to get better. Hope you are feeling better and that you ROCK it this week!
  • Like you said, you have done it for 17 days! Even with TOM I have no doubt you will do just fine! Just remember we are PUSHING OURSELVES and find what you can do in your comfort level is TOM is giving you problems!
  • Way to go, looks like your hard work is paying off! You will notice a difference, in calories burned, with using an HRM. Keep it up, doing wonderful!
  • Look at you PUSH YOURSELF and look at the results. Way to go, just TERRIFIC!
  • Great on the run, obviously your endurance has improved! I have no doubt you will get back at it this week and I will strong numbers from you by the end of the week! I have seen you do it before. Great job
  • This is AWESOME! JUST AWESOME! I am so glad that you are really working the challenge and are building the endurance to increase what you do each week! Fantastic!
  • I think we are going to have some new folks joining up with us starting this week. So, everyone be on the lookout for new names and let's welcome them to this Challenge and help out if we can. All of us have done it for 2 weeks and we know it can be done but there are times when we have to PUSH OURSELVES. They may need a…
