Awesome job! KUTGW

I too am a slave to my scale but I don't let the fluctuations get to me, it helps me understand how my body works. Kudos to you for being able to stay off of it!

Meekness29 · 06-05-2008, 06:32 AM

Morning ladies, just checking in... I'm down an additional 2lbs !!! 184 - total of 11lbs since May 14th - Woot

Today, I will jog 3 miles and ride the stationary bike for 4 = 7 miles total.

How is everyone else doing today?

BB later

Melle · 06-05-2008, 07:07 AM

Congratulations everyone...you're all doing so great!

Meekness, 11 pounds? AWESOME JOB!

Meekness29 · 06-05-2008, 07:14 AM

Thanks Melle !

Meekness29 · 06-05-2008, 07:14 PM

Evening All, just checking in before I hit the sack!

I completed 7.62 miles tonight at the gym (combo of running/bike riding). I feel awesome; however, my feet hurt. I'm going to bed. Good night

Denise85 · 06-05-2008, 08:11 PM

I did 6 miles tonight between the treadmill and WATP. I did 4 Fast Miles, and then 2 miles of incline walking on the treadmill.

GGWilson · 06-06-2008, 04:27 AM

Awesome Job Everyone! KUTGW!

I am going to report in as I won't be around tomorrow...

This weeks goal: 20 miles
Completed: 22.5 (might be able to squeeze in some tomorrow morning too)
I also lost 1 lb for the week, which I am actually surprised to see as TOM paid me a painful visit this morning after a 2 month hiatus! That makes me hopeful that next week should produce some good numbers!

My goal for next week will be 20 miles again.

I hope everyone has a great weekend and I hope to read about everyone's successful week.

ValR · 06-06-2008, 05:37 AM

Just checking in. I walked four miles yesterday.

Denise85 · 06-06-2008, 09:55 PM

I got in another 5 miles today. I did the Walk/Kick dvd, and then 3 miles on the treadmill. My total for the week so far is 15 1/2. I'm hoping to get another workout in tomorrow.

Meekness29 · 06-06-2008, 10:26 PM

Hello everyone - I'm checking in. I completed 6.50 miles on the stationary bike AND 2 miles on the treadmill. That's a total of 8.5 for today! Shooting for 5 miles on tomorrow.

KUTGW ladies

Melle · 06-06-2008, 11:45 PM

One more day, 'till weigh-in/measure in. I have no doubt, that we are ALL going to have a GREAT week. The whoosh-fairy is going to have to take a vacation, she'll be working so hard.

Meekness29 · 06-07-2008, 08:31 AM

Have a wonderful day girls

nicsweed · 06-07-2008, 01:25 PM

I hope not i need a Whoosh....!!!

Denise85 · 06-07-2008, 02:04 PM

I'm down 3 1/2 pounds this week, and so far I got in 15 1/2 miles so I met and exceeded my weekly goal.

I'm going to get in a work out this evening, so I'll post my total for the week after that along with my new goal for next week.

ValR · 06-07-2008, 02:08 PM

Just stopping in to say I walked 6 miles yesterday and today. I set my goal (monthly) kinda high so I'm pushing myself to make it/exceed it. For some reason I have a big nasty blister on my foot. I don't know if it was from my shoes, socks, or both.

Keep on walking.

Denise85 · 06-07-2008, 06:20 PM

Sorry to hear about the blister Val.

I hope it's not too bad.

I got in 4 1/2 miles today, and a weight routine. I am exhausted! I did the 3 mile dvd that uses the mini balls you hold in your hand. I did this dvd after my weight routine, and I was definately feeling it. After that I did another 1 1/2 miles of incline wlaking on the treadmill.

RECAP
Goal was 12 miles. I did 20 miles so I exceeded my milage by 8 miles. I also lost 3.5 pounds this week.

My goal for next week is another 20 miles.

How is everyone else doing?

Hey Val, congrats on the 6 miles

Sorry to hear about the blister. I hope it heals soon. Keep walking regardless

That's the 1 mile Muscle Mile-luv this one.

In fact just finished 1 mile-didn't feel well earlier and had a long nap and felt good enough to get a little exercise in. Starting to feel guilty and miss it when I don't.

The one I used today used the weighed balls, but it was 3 miles; not 1. It's called Super Fat Burning-3 Miles.

I've never used this one before, and it kicked my butt. I'll definately be using it again.

I just ordered 4 Really Big Miles. I do the 4 Fast Miles a lot, so I thought I'd try the other 4 mile dvd. I'm sriously becoming a WATP junkie. I saw she has a new 5 mile one coming out soon.

Sounds intense I will definitely have to get this dvd.

Melle · 06-08-2008, 10:17 AM

Well, the Whoosh Fairy definitely did not visit my house, this week. I think it is because Aunt Flow visited, instead. I never lose any pounds, the week of my TOM.

Oh well, that'll just make next week all the better. I haven't measured yet...I'll do that, this afternoon.

lisabinil · 06-08-2008, 12:04 PM

Another 4 miles this morning. Trying to keep my chin up cause my weight loss is still stalled-I saw an endocrinologist on Friday-I have 4 thyroid nodules.

So hopefully I will get some meds soon to help me but it is sure discouraging to be eating right and killing myself exercising with no progress-inches or weight.

It's a pretty good work out. I lifted weights right before, so the work out was even more intense for me. You don't use the hand balls until the second and third miles, but I think I would have passed out if I had to use them for all three. lol

I'm the same way. I never lose at that time. It's so frustrating.
