NOTSOFATSOs Team 3 New yrs challenge

[lasst10]

Just checking in this morning. :wave

I treated myself and finally bought a Yoga Ball. Wow! REALLY fun!! I'm REALLY sore today but it's not the typical soreness after a workout. I worked muscles that probably never had a real workout in all my 36 years! It took a little time to get over the fear of popping it, but I figured it's only 22" high, if I pop it, I won't have far to fall! I pretty much played with it, trying it out and seeing what it could do.

After taking it for a spin, I sat on it while I knitted (keeping the needles far away!) and could really feel some muscle work, even while not actively exercising. I highly recommend these balls!

The kitties, however, weren't amused.



Oh yeah, I also did a 2-mile Walk Away the Pounds routine too.

Pulling an extra shift because of a call out, so I dug out my laptop and brought it with me. I have been very good and haven't had any cheats. drinking my water and taking my vitamins. I am down another 5 lbs bringing my weight to 268. Before I know it I will be down 50 lbs!!!

Hey Team 3 where is everybody???

Fina and Friendly--glad to see you both and to see that you are losing.

Where's everyone else? Last10, how you are doing? I started the couch to 5K program and am having trouble figuring out when to move to the next stage. I can get through stage one and think I can move on to stage two but the other stages are looking kind of scary! Oh well, one step at a time, right?

[2big4mysize]

good for you just keep pushing yourself and be like that little engin that could I think I can I think I can and you will. Mental fatigue comes way before actual physical fatigue when we are exercising.

Come on gang Sneal you taking that vit? and where is that post you emailed me you were going to make.

Warsaw are you got moved in yet?

Anybody ever here for Ragtime Gal?

Hi everyone I am still here. Extremely busy with work and setting up the new apartment. Still staying with it and I am very happy to say that I am down a grand total of 49 lbs. I really hope that I can make it 50 before the end of the month. So I am down to 263. I haven't done inches lately, but my clothes are starting to look that I can fit another person in there with me.

Thinking of everyone

Hey all,
I am still here.
landasmom: I am also doing the C25K and I decided to do each "week" for a month. There was no way I could do it any faster than that. In fact, I had to do the first "week" for 2 months before I was ready to move on. Also I modify the routines a little bit. I was feeling that my recovery time was improving and I wanted my heart rate to stay up, so I never walk more then 90 sec. between my running. Now I am on the 4th "week" But here is what I do (a bit different from their plan):
5 min warm up
run 1.5 min
walk 1.5
run 3 min
walk 1.5
run 5 min
walk 1.5
run 3 min
walk 1.5
run 5 min

I do this every other day because I get shin splints if I go more often. On the off days, I just started going to the gym (as of March 11th) and I do weight lifting and 30 min on the elliptical machine. My weight loss slowed way down when I started running only every other day in Feb. because of my shins. But since I started going to the gym on my off days, my weight loss has picked back up again. (I hope I didn't just jinx anything) Anyway, The weightloss has been so slow in Feb and beginning of March that I probably won't be able to make Onderland by memorial day, but I am hoping for 225 by April 1st, and hopefully 215 when I move back to the USA at the end of April...We'll see.....

Hi team....just stopping in im in a very foul mood....TOM will do that i guess.

First i didnt weigh cause im probably bloated my monthly 5 lbs and dont want that to disrupt me.

2nd teamies....well i been to the cardiologist first a consult then some tests were done......i had a nuclear stress test and a echocardiogram.
Well they see some shadowing, maybe my large body size causeing it
they dont know but their scheduling me right away for an angirogram....
so im pissed at the world.....Why? i dont have time to tend this stuff...
its never easy to close my daycare, find somone to tend my kids
and address something that has to do with me.
But i guess i better or ill end up with a massive heart attack and dead...yeah fun pretty thoughts sorry friends...
My spririts stink...but thats life i suppose.
Never goes the way i want it too.

Well keep up the loosing team ...cant say my WOE is top prioirty
this upcomeing week but ill try. thanks in advance
