Good morning, everyone!
Sorry, Meemoo, I was up early and just wanted to post before I left on vacation for the next few days. Didn't do as much as I would have liked, but met all my goals and scored some points for the team! Here are the stats:
REQUIREMENTS:
Cardio: 4 workouts @ 5 points each = 20 points
Strength: 2 workouts @ 5 points each = 10 points
Water: 7/7 days @ 2 points each = 14 points
Goals: Met 3/3 goals @ 5 points each = 15 points
TOTAL REQUIREMENT POINTS: 59 POINTS
BONUSES:
Did 3 additional cardio sessions (all 2-a-day): 15 points
(Push it) Did 3 different workouts in one day: 2 points
(Push it) Got up and did workout BEFORE teaching VBS - I was SO tired! 2 points
(Push it) Did an extra-long soak in the tub ( "me time" was a goal this week, but this was a huge chunk of time) 2 points
(Push it) Got up early to work out after staying up late to take said bath, and on the last day of VBS, too! 2 points
(Push it) Did NOT get a treat to celebrate when we went out to dinner to celebrate end of VBS/start of summer vacation - needed SERIOUS willpower 2 points
(Push it) Took my stuff and worked out while out of town visiting family 2 points
(Push it) Got home Sunday night and worked out again after driving 2.5 hours and eating a big dinner - woohoo! 2 points
TOTAL BONUS POINTS: 29 POINTS
TOTAL POINTS: 88
Weight-wise, I started this challenge at 152.5 on June 4, and ended it (as of Friday) at 145.5 ... wow, that's 7 pounds GONE! This challenge kicked my butt, and I'm so grateful. As I said at the beginning, I was in it to help me stay on track for good health, and it has really helped with that. Thanks, all, for your support and encouragement!
And I have to say ... it felt GOOD to see my family today for the first time since the end of March - so, so many great compliments on how healthy and fit I look, and lots of questions about what I was doing to get there. Preached a lot of SBD!
Hope everyone feels great about the fitness progress they made, whether big or small - we ALL moved toward better health, so we ALL win! Yay, Meetoos!

Rather than just NOT post - guess I'll embarrass myself instead. :oops: :oops: :oops:
Requirements
water: 2 of 7 days = 4 points
one cardio of 30 minutes = 5 points
AND that's it - 9 points.
Weight is UP from the beginning of June - so no points there either.
Sorry team - RJ |

Wow, Ljmusicmom those are some good Push It bonuses,
and applying a Push It to all our efforts is a great concept - and it works for you, small wonder you had such a great weight loss.
Thanks Searay for going first, so I will get out my info, I stepped on scale and although I am thrilled my stomach is flat and my jeans fit, I have not lost a pound this whole month! Deflating to be sure, but I do know that first week I did all that exercise I ate more because I felt entitled.
Happily, this past week I combined the SB eating with increased exercise.
With this habit results will surely be on the way.
My Points:
Cardio: 4 workouts @ 5 points each = 20 Points
Strength: 2 workouts @ 5 points each = 10 points
Water: 3 Days at 2 Points each = 6 Points
Goals: 2/3 goals @ Points each = 10 Points
Bonuses:
Cardio: 2 extra cardio workouts @ 5 Points = 10 Points
New Exercise: Yoga aerobics @ 2 Points = 2 Points
Push It: for 3 workouts (reached 12 Pound wts. for
back exercise) @ 2 points = 6 Points
Push It: for not eating more when doing more exercise
this week @ 2 points = 2 Points
Total Points: 66 Points
I loved this challenge, what is great about this kind here is that
it covers other behaviors as opposed to exercise only. |

Hi Ladies.
I'm sad this challenge is ending. Despite the fact that I lost no weight, I did enjoy stepping up my exercise and my clothes are fitting better. Sat I did my Pilates class and was able to do with ease some things that have always been difficult for me.....
I also thank all of you for the good support!, and Meemoo for leading!
Results:
Cardio: 4 workouts @ 5 points each = 20 Points
Strength: 1 workout @ 5 points each = 5 points
Water: 7 Days at 2 Points each = 14 Points
Goals: 2/3 goals @ 5 Points each = 10 Points
Bonus:
Cardio: 2 workouts @ 5 points each = 10 points
Total: 59
I agree with Laura, everyone did great!
Let's do this again!!!

Hi everyone. I did not do very well during week 4. I also forgot to weigh myself this morning so I don't know if I lost anything. I highly doubt it.
Cardio 3/4 = 15 points
Strength 0/2 = 0 points
Water 7/7 = 14 points
Goals 2/3 = 10 points
Push it bonus (ran 30 minutes straight for the first time) = 2 points
Total = 41 points |
