Smile Exercise Challenge

Ok ladies my tom is here and I'm a little tired. I've done well with my food but I've been having chocolate cravings. The pure delight sf chocolate is so good.

Here are the totals for the challenge:

Exercise Challenge
Amiee3377 1 mile
Ketodiva 35 minutes
Red1cutie 84 minutes 2.65 miles
Angel: 40 minutes ***I did not count those crunches. Please let me know how long it took you to do them****
Total: 159 minutes 3.65 miles

Cummulative Challenge Numbers
429 minutes and 15.59 miles

We have almost reached half of our goal. Come on ladies, let's get those other 71 minutes. We only have a few more weeks to work on those miles but I believe we can do it. I will try to add more to the total next week.


***If there are any changes that need to be made please let me know****I will help me to calculate the numbers better if you just type your information in the subject area. If you use quick reply please type it at the bottom of the post. Thanks

Talking 2 miles 30 mins for me!

Hello Ladies,

Just got in from my workout!

Went to the track. My husband was really motivated tonight. It rained on us, but we kept going. It was wonderful, we were the only ones out there.

Hmmmmm No pain, no gain, and a little water won't hurt. (except for my hair )

Take care all!!

Continued success!

20B

Default CAD versus Atkins

Hello Ladies,

Looking for some advice...I am thinking of changing my program from Atkins to CAD. I have both books so I have a good understanding of both programs. I put a post in my journal regarding this (#17). If any of you would like to take a look a tell me if you have any thoughts. I think the most important thing is to pick one that works and stay with it. I guess I just hate to filp flop between the plans.

Thank you red for your input. Hope all is well with everyone.

Hello Everyone!!!
Glad you could join us Atkin...............

Red: glad your power is back!!!! I know that was tough.. It was plastered on the news yesterday....

skinny: I've read that book. The only down fall was eating the carbs in an hour....I'm a slow eater, and I get full quickly....I honestly like to eat 4 or 5 small meals, which you can't do on that plan..... But you're right, you want to do something that works for you and that you can stick to. Good luck to you,,which ever plan you decide to roll with

Just wanted to report my exercise.

Spent my Friday night at the gym.....Felt good.

Have a great weekend Ladies, and keep up the good work.

Morning everyone,
First let me report my exercise...6 miles since my last post. I've been doing the Leslie Sansone 2 mi. tapes every night except for last night.
**Red1cutie this is my reward meal that I had last night. Chicken fried steak with cream gravy, grilled vegetables, skillet fried cabbage, a coke, and chocolate cake. Yum, yum, yum!!! You could have pizza, salad, and dessert. As long as the meals are somewhat balance. My reward meals are not always balanced. For example one night I had pizza and ice cream, but I'm still losing weight.

**Skinnyme..CAD is working great for me. I'm not familiar with Atkins so I can't compare the two programs. CAD is easy for me because I know that I can have all of the "forbidden foods" for my reward meal if I eat good stuff during the day. Also the weight loss is pretty slow..usually 1 to 2 pounds a week; but I'm also loosing inches. The one hour time limit is not a problem for me. I'm a teacher so I'm used to scarfing down meals in 20 min. You have to choose what's best for you.

Have a great day everyone! I'm off to school to work on my classroom. School starts Monday
