Ok all here for motivation!!!!  

Cardio minutes

KT-195

chris-160

sheila-45

val-180

I want to say WOO FREAKIN HOO!!!  To this wonderful team.  Everyone is really trying to be there for everyone.  All I have to say is that we CAN'T lose steam.....I have been in other threads and everyone is  woo hooing and then it just fades.  So I am asking everyone to try to check in often.  We need to be the support group that everyone needs!! 

chrisbaptiste....Well i ran 2.2 miles and walked 1.1  I have my sister to keep me going.  She is in WAY better shape then me!!  HAHAHA!  But I will be there someday!!!  8)

donvito....I am glad we are here to motivate you.  I will do my best to make you accountable.  It is wonderful that you are excited.  I am here if you ever need a lift!!

vklamorick...You can surpass your goal.  Just have to stay on top of things!!  I know you can do it!!  One thing to remember....is that no one is perfect....just have to learn from any mistakes we make and move past them quickly.

ktcort13...Don't feel intimidated!!  You are out to do something you have never done before and that in itself is a great reward!!  So look at it like that, who cares about everyone else.

Ok I must get back to pretending that I am working....HAHAHA!  The team Rocks!!!! 

Hey Team Healthy4life

Hello H4L

I want to do a 300 to 500 cal a meal 5 to 6 times a day. Does that make sense. Anywho, would you guys be able to recommend some good sites with this info. I tried searching here but didn't have luck. Probably user error.

Also anyone know of a good protien shake. By good I mean good in taste, nutrition, and cost.

Thanks team

Chris-- just wanted to be sure you know that totals have to be no later than Saturday!!

Yikes...**grabbing a towel to cover up***  Team 2 alert!!!

DON i just use this website, and i calculate each food individually and then add em up, here is a new thing i have been doing as well it may help some f u i dont know its worth a shot, in the evening when we are sitting around doing nothing i write a "plan" for the next day sometimes i do 2 days for instence this is what it looked like for today, however i dont know what i am eating for dinner yet its just an example!!

BREAKFAST:    1 shake 180  done!!

SNACK:      &nb sp;      popcor n 3 cups 45 calories  done!!

LUNCH:      &nb sp;     rice bowl  260 calories  done!!

SNACK:      &nb sp;      2snack bar 240 calories   done!!

EXCERSISE:

50 squats  done!!

50 butt    done!!

72 arm w/ 20 pound weight  done!!  ouchhhh

72 leg w/ 20 pound weight  done!!

30 min treadmill  done!!

60 min///3.5 mile walk

anyway this seems to hold me accountable i HAVE TO PUT DONE next to each item, since i went to the trouble of typing it daily i tend to follow "my plan"  anyway just a thought that may help some of you!!

Thanks Chris

Hi Sorry no stats for yesterday. It was a holiday here and was hanging out with the family and gardening. Got in my minutes today. I added the stepper at the gym just for this challange. I also do the eplil for a 30 min

30 min on stepper

30 min walk

Have a good night

I'm here!!

1. don-20
2. judi-30
3. chris-108 min
4. royerta-60
5. vk-55

Sorry, been busy ever since I got off work.  T-ball practice then the treadmill...just finished a few minutes ago.

hi val

I checked the rules the stepper counts as walking so do i get another half hour

D'oh!  Sorry Royerta, I edited my above post to reflect that....totally my bad!!  So are you as tired as I am???  I'm so pooped. 

So what kind of gardening do you do?  I'm hoping to find time this holiday weekend to spruce up the front of my house with some pretty colors.  I've got 3 flower beds that are in dire need of attention.

I have tons of weeding and had to deheaded all the rhodos. I'm a begginer gardener and i have fruit trees as well. We have had 3 beautiful sunny days. The gym just poops me out but i thought of the challange and did my 30 mins on the stepper usally only do 12. The walk was to spend time with my mom.
