Hey Hey
i have completed 2 of my 3 challenges, just thinking of something to post about. Are we doing an exercise thread like team 1 then? or are we going for a different thing?
Im off to work in a shop humphing boxes about for 4 hours - does this count as exercise - work in an offy with lots of heavy boxes

If you want a separate thread I can make one but it might be easier to have everything on here.

Aug 2 2010, 01:45 PM
Afternoon all!
I forgot to say I WI on a Saturday morning.
This challenge seems to have got me moving again - hope it lasts!
I've done all the challenges for week 1 and I'm going to start posting on the exercise thread too... For some reason I can do pep or I can do exercise but don't seem to be able to stick to them together
I'd say it might be easier to keep track over everything on one thread but I'm happy to go with the flow.
My exercise plan for this week is:
Monday: 30 min lunchtime walk round park, walk to doctors from work (bout 45-60mins)
Tuesday: 30 min lunchtime walk round park, boxing
Wednesday: 30 min lunchtime walk round park, 30 min minimum on wii
Thursday: wii fit , toning/weights exercises
Friday: 15k cycle, boxing
Saturday: wii fit, toning/weights exercises
Sunday: 15k cycle, boxing
I'll update the exercise thread as I go...
How is everyone else doing today?

Aug 2 2010, 06:38 PM
Hi everyone. It's great to log on and see how well everyone is doing.
I get weighed tomorrow and I am not sure what the result will be as I'm still struggling but doing much better than last week. I can't exercise at the moment but I hope my arms get better soon as I really miss it.
Katie Roseanne

I'm here Crazy!
Have cricked my neck again - feel so daft. Was putting on my jeans last nights and as I wiggled them over my bum it clicked
Hope it doesn't scupper my exercise plans but it is rather ouchy just now... Grrrr!!
I've managed to stick to my exercise plan everyday this week so far too with a minimum of 60mins exercise - walking only for me today I think
Eating mostly going to plan, was over yesterday but under on Monday so hopefully by the end of today I'll be on track.
How is everyone else doing?

Have also planned to tackle my ironing mmountain today - groan!!!
Want to iron & name all Ryans school stuff too, and not leave it til just before he goes back
Avy75
Aug 4 2010, 10:30 AM
Small movements can often cause the worst injury!! Hope you are both better soon.
Shirls you are going to be mega organised, for Ryan going back to school.
I'm off to work soon, so probably won't be back on today. Unless I can sneacky on at work and have a wee nosey!!!
Hope you all have a good day

Great idea Katie. I'm sure you'll love it as soon as you get into the pool.
I have no idea how but I have lost 1 kilo! That's 50 points for us. I have had a really bad week and there was birthday cake too.
Went to the doctor's and I'm now off work for 2 weeks. I'm going to see what I can cook that doesn't take much stirring (and doesn't need to be eaten with a spoon). Need to get back to eating healthily and hopefully the enforced rest will do the trick.

I lost 1/2pound at class, which I to was totally surprised at. I'm just hoping it doesn't catch up with me next week at weigh in!!!
It's pouring iwth rain in Perth, so today I am going to spring clean my house!! That should hopefully burn a few calories as I usually ahve a Wednesday off from the gym!!
Hope you all have a good day.
I've forgot what the challenges were this week so I'm away to see if I have anytihng still to do!!!

Hi Paula!
Well done Katie! and everyone else!
Bookhunter I hope you are feeling a bit better. Make sure you do rest though otherwise it will just take longer for you to get better!
Well I am now on pep perfect day 4 and the rest of the weeks food and exercise all planned out... I've managed a minimum of 30min exercise everyday and now I'm back in the swing of things I remember how much I actually enjoy it
Here is my plan for this week:
Monday - 30 min walk, toning/stretching exercises
Tuesday - wii fit (40mins)
Wednesday - 30 45 min walk, toning/stretching exercises 22 min wii fit
Thursday - 30 min walk, wii fit
Friday - 30 min walk
Saturday - wii fit, toning/stretching exercises
Sunday - wii boxing, wii fit
Has anyone tried Callanetics? I found a book on and it look quite interesting... I'm looking for something to tone me up as I've got a few saggy bits, I know it is due to losing so much but I reckon it will only get worse... any tips on toning anyone?
Right I'm off to post my three things... Have a good day folks!
