    Challengers Week of 8/23

    Hi everyone. My foot has been killing me all week, so didn't really manage much in the way of exercise. Today, I finally managed SOMETHING...got in a swim and a little stair climbing courtesy of the waterslides @ the Aquatic Center. Kids and I had a good time. I've put GS C&T in my Workout...

    Challengers Week of 8/23

    Hi everyone. I'm now pretty sure that I have a stress fracture in my foot :mad:. It even hurts to walk. Kinda derails the cardio plan, doesn't it? I'm going to do some UB weights and abs this evening (maybe the PUB up only premix). Will try to get to the Y later this week to see if I can...

    The Challengers wk of 8/16

    Hey everyone. No swimming today - too many chores to do. Wound up helping the boys move a Spanish Dagger (giant yucca) that toppled over in the front yard. That was interesting - VERY heavy - I got to do most of the lifting since DH's back is not happy right now. Lucky me. Amelia, a...

    The Challengers wk of 8/16

    Thanks for the welcome back, everyone. Well, I didn't feel like WO, but I did it anyway. Did most of LIC - skipped the cardio portion of Circuit #3 and couldn't quite manage all the ab work, but it was OK. I'm sure I'll feel it tomorrow, but that's OK. I will swim either tomorrow or Sunday...

    The Challengers wk of 8/16

    Hi folks! Do you remember me? I've been AWOL forever, it seems. I had a rather long (6 months) bout with extreme upper back pain and serious problems adjusting to my kids' school schedules last year. Bottom line is very little exercise and poor eating made for a FAT Andrea. I'm trying to...

    Help with moisturizer!!

    I like the Olay Complete SPF 30 Defense Daily Moisturizer. It's fairly light and a pretty decent sunscreen. I use one of the Regenerist night creams too - not too heavy for a night cream...

    ~~Challengers - May 11-17~~

    Hi everyone. MIA last week - was on travel. Got in 1 run while I was gone, but that's it. Better than nothing, I guess. Food was a disaster. So far this week (in my WW week), I've gone running twice (2.5mi) - I still have to walk part, but part is getting smaller each time. Hoping to get...

    Hi everyone. I did 4DS bootcamp cardio this morning after 10min of yoga to wake up my body. That really seems to make a difference - I've always had trouble keeping up w/ Cathe's warm-ups @ 5:30am - not so much after yoga. Amelia enjoy your rest day. Roxie, have fun surprising DH and...

    Pyramid Up vs. Pyramid Down

    I usually do Pyramid Up - seems like I'm always short on time, plus this lets me lift heavier (which I like better).

    husband appreciation thread

    Feeding the kids every morning, taking the kids to school every day, picking them up from school every day, combing DD's hair in the morning so I'm not late for work, cooking dinner 2-3 nights a week, grocery shopping/Costco runs, laundry...etc., etc. Not sure how I'd manage it all w/o him!

    Hi everyone. Sorry to be so much MIA - I've just been crazy busy between work & kids' activities lately. Workouts have been pretty good the last several days, though... F (I know last week): 2.5mi walk/run (I estimate ~1.75mi run) M: LIC cardio, 2mi walk T: 2mi walk W: (today) 10min yoga...

    **CHALLENGERS 04/20 - 04/26 April 09

    Hi everyone. Managed to get up this morning and do LIS cardio only. I want to go walk, but everyone that typically answers the phone has skipped out for lunch so here I sit. I'll go when some of them get back. Amelia, you must be excited to buy your first place. We wound up building...

    Foods you wish you'd never tried

    Ditto on the candy cane jo-jos! Also bagels w/ cream cheese (if I "need" one I'll go to the store and get ONE), jelly beans, chocolate meringues (well, actually pretty much ANYTHING chocolate)...

    **CHALLENGERS 04/20 - 04/26 April 09

    Hi everyone. I'm around, trying to get back in the WO groove, but it's getting harder w/ the end of the school year approaching. We have cheer performances & tryouts & gymnastics competition for DD, piano competition & recital for DS, band concert for DS, class play, etc. along with the...

    ^^^CHALLENGERS - 4/13-4/19^^^

    Andrea, yoga makes a HUGE difference for me, and not just in terms of being more limber. I don't really follow the spiritual aspects, but it really is very calming - something I definitely could use these days! On a different subject - the cardio premix from LIC is one of my favorites! I...

    ^^^CHALLENGERS - 4/13-4/19^^^

    Hi everyone. Glad you all did OK foodwise this past weekend - I sure didn't! Decided not to step on the scale until Friday, which is my official WW weigh in day. Meanwhile, I'm chugging water and continuing to try to get back to regular exercising. Today I got up (WOOHOO!!!) and did 40 min...

    **CHALLENGERS** mon4/6-sun4/12

    Hi everyone. So far this week, my exercise has been confined to walking. At least I can make myself do that. Obviously I'm in a bit of a rut myself. I think I'm just waiting until it warms up a bit and is light out @ 5:45am. Once I can get outside things seem to go much better :) Food -...

    **CHALLENGERS** mon4/6-sun4/12

    Andrea, I'm with you on the tanning! I always use sunscreen but do wind up w/ a little color (and LOTS of tan lines) from all the outdoor stuff we do in the warmer months. Have to admit I do like the color of a tan vs my pasty white skin, though. I decided to try to just do 30min of...

    *~*Challengers~*~*4/1

    Just waving hi. Back from vacation, but still fighting off the last of the cold/sinus ick I had before I left. Finally starting to feel almost normal, though. Should be back to WO fairly soon. Amelia, take care of yourself. Hi Roxie, Jean, Elaine, Becca, Andrea and anyone I've missed...

    <>Wednesdays<>Challengers<>

    Waving hi. Haven't been WO at all - this cold/sinus infection whatever has completely thrown me for a loop! FINALLY starting to feel better just in time for vacation (which is WAY better than being sick on vacation :D). We're planning some snorkeling, some kayaking & some hiking so I'll get...
