I'm in for the sit up challenge, but it should be every 2nd day (need to rest the muscles in between for growth), with a variety, and to your max reps. I did several last night, and am going to do them tomorrow. Actually am going to do them at least 3 X/week, hopefully from now on. I'm taking it easier till Sun.-the…

I'm in, day 3 already done.:flowerforyou:

I'm in! My hubby keeps taunting me with sweets-:laugh: good luck buddy. I sturdy on this one this time.:laugh:

Way to go guys.:drinker: My weigh in is 2 weeks or so...I'll keep on plugging away...:flowerforyou:

Hi, well I made it to week 6. I'm taking this week off to rest my legs. Just working on cardio this week. Ya, the 1/2 Marathon-haven't trained very much, but if I can't jog I'll walk. I just want to beat last years time. Keep going girl! :flowerforyou:

Chrissy-you're such a supportive, awesome person. Kind words are worth millions these days.:heart: :smooched: Thanks j, I know you can relate alot.:heart: A challenge would be great-I still need to work on increasing veggies, evening snacking, and of course my sugar addiction. My hubby has a bet with me that will keep me…

Had a great workout, minus the shoulder stuff. See the Doc at the end of the month. Loved Tai kwon do j, Have fun and kick some *kitten*!:tongue:

I'm worrried...my shoulder is making grinding sounds at times and feels like it shifts. WTF? I can't go through that hell again. I'm trying to get in to see the Doc for at least another x-ray too. I haven't been overdoing it either-believe me- he said I could lift some weights. My body is such a mess. I need to go for…

Way to go Rach!:bigsmile:

Well, I ran around with my HRM monitor on for 1.5 hours doing birthday party stuff- Took 16- 12 yr olds to Self Defense at a Tai Kwan Do place. We walked there, I stayed involved and tried all the punches, blocks, kicks, etc. Burned about 800 cals! Actually the instructor thought I was excellent-had an aura of confidence…

K, this is a bad weekend for me. Upset with my daughter, 16, who just moved home yesterday:smooched: , is so independent and private. I hate it!!:explode: ! I have 2 who tell me anything, and 2 that are private. I am an easy going parent, know what teens are like, and just want to be supportive, offer advice,etc. I feel…

How do you guys behave so well? I was upset about my daughter so I ate cookies.Feel gross again and bad.:explode:

Tried again, and the link worked. I don't think you look too skinny. Maybe you need to totally change things up. :huh:

Hi-just read an article about it last night...they say that to get full benefits opf the antioxidants in it, is to drink it HOT. As it cools it loses the effect.:huh: Who knew? As for the weight loss benefits, not sure.

Saw the first pic, but not the second-link isn't working. Guess I should update some pics too...

Lookin' good Sani! Sherrie-WTG! 1 day at a time is right-give it 3-5 and you'll be on your way! So tell us, are you from Baltimore?:flowerforyou:

Funny how we obsess over the number. I have decided to weigh once a monthe from now on. Just after my TOM. I eat 1520 cals and my exercise ones. Not sure what else to do, but I have incresed the weights-can't actually move right now, :ohwell: , but have to try something. After the marathon, I'm going to change up my cardio…

Thanks guys:cry: (sniffle snifle). I'm was soo tempted to buy the Costco cookies today, but I won't. :ohwell: I have decided to stick with it of course, cause I'd miss you all way to much, but if it's ok, I'm going to only weigh once a month now, cause it ticks me off too much, and becomes obsessive for me. So, around the…

Great article. I knew some of the cardio stuff, but it's soo interesting how you can read from one author to the next about how to do things, and why. Frustrating actually, because who do you believe? This article made great sense though. Will definitely change things once I make it through the 1/2 marathon in 10 days.…

I did a leg workout yesterday and am sooo sore. I need to get today's in, so I can rest tomorow, and start my last week so I'm done by Thurs. as I will need to rest for that Sun. I'm doing a 1/2 Marathon on June 21 with one of my daughters.:bigsmile: :drinker: I know how you feel though, it's very easy to put them off.…

K, but everytime you do the HIIT or any cardio, you're tearing muscle so you need something more to repair also-how about more rest time between lifting and the intense cardio? Look how sprinters look-very little body fat, and I'm sure they're not big weights.I think for sure Protein supps would help. Who am I to talk, I…

I am also an everyday weigher-switched to once a week, and still-if it's up, I'm miserabe. And i KNOW it can be hormones, fluid retention, etc., but the almighty number infuriates me. So, as of today, whoever wants too, can try like me and weigh once a month.:huh: The day after my TOM will be my official weigh in from now…

Body Fortress and Walmart in the States is cheap and good. Check it out and let me know what you think. Also, from all my reading HIIT is for losing and toning up lean. Cool it on the cardio or at least that type. 2 days a week would be good, may be 3-one being all Plyo maybe. Builders aren't about cardio, and supplements…

I'm working my butt off and am up 2? Like I'm so frustrated! I can't lose this last 10! :sad: :sad: I just want to quit weighing in at all cause it depresses me sooo much. My husband keeps telling me to hang in there and not get discouraged, but I see everyone else go down, why aren't I? What activity levels are you all…

I am very frustrated. Got over 1 plateau, but keep going up a couple and back down. Drives me nuts. The last 10 are killing me! Help!:explode:

Looks good everyone!

Hi worked out hard today, now eating Double Bubble....:glasses:

Well I guess this is it! I had to search, but I found you guys. I'm now on Week 5. Day 2 tomorrow. I can tell a difference in my legs and love the work out. How about you guys?:drinker:

I forgot to weigh in! Can it be tomorrow? I'm afraid if I get on now since I ate and drank I'll be up. So, let me know if you want me to skip a week, or I can give you a number tomorrow. I am soo lost on what day of the week it is.:flowerforyou: Busy day to day...

haha-I did most of P90X-I'd like to punch Drea the show off in the teeth.:drinker:
