Week #5 SOUND OFF!!

Ok, I know there's not much to sound off about for this week's challenge, but you can at least let us know if you plan on staying and doing the workout with Johnna tomorrow after the meeting or if you are going to attempt to do 3 laps around the Community Club (which = about 3 miles!!). Not sure what I'm going to do yet. If I have time to go to the gym after work to workout, I won't be staying for Johnna's workout BUT I will do the 3 laps around the Club! Am I going to have anyone join me?!?! I don't want to do it by myself!!

Are you all still keeping up with the previous week's challenges? Drinking water/cutting out soda? Check! Do something active at least 3 days a week? Check! Keep a food journal? Check! The only challenge I'm not doing well on is trying a new recipe every week....which could be why I'm getting BORED with what I'm eating!! Which is the purpose of that challenge!! Geesh, who would've thought?! LOL!!

See you all at the meeting tomorrow night!

Week #4 SOUND OFF!

This week's challenge was to start keeping a food journal! Write down everything that goes into your body. I've been doing this from day 1 and I can not stress enough how incredibly helpful this is!! Seriously! Yes, it takes a little bit of time at first. You don't necessarily need a calorie counting book. If you have access to the internet, it will, literally, take you mere seconds to find out the calories of something.

At the front of my journal I keep a running list of my most frequently eaten foods' calories.....fruits, veggies, certain snacks, etc. Anything else, I google. You don't have to search very long or hard at all.

So, how's everyone handling this challenge? Have any tips on journaling for us? At least sound off by saying you're doing it!!!

Week #3 SOUND OFF!!

Ok, ladies...this past week's challenge was to try a new recipe! What recipe did you try? Did you love it? Wanna share it with everyone? POST IT HERE! I didn't get a chance to write down the awesome recipe that Amy found for us last week, but I talked to a group member that made it this week and LOVED IT!!

Week #2 SOUND OFF!!

Hey, ladies! What have you been doing for the second week?

Are you following the new Weekly Challenge of making sure you do some sort of excercise 3 days/week AND are you still drinking more water? It's so important that you keep yourself hydrated while excercising and just for your overall health! Keep up the good work!!

Can't wait to see everyone on Tuesday. We look forward to having Heather Hill come and talk to us about free weights and what purchases we can make to do some simple weight excercises at home. If you have hand weights at home, bring them to do the excercises along with her! If you don't have any, no worries, you can still do the excercises!!

Week #1 SOUND OFF!!

Hey, ladies! It's week #1 of 12 and we want to know what you've done since our meeting. No matter what it is, let everyone know! What did you get out of hearing our speakers? Show off! Brag about yourselves! :)
