JA0371 Posted November 30, 2016 Author Share Posted November 30, 2016 Day 6: Lying in bed drinking coffee....watching my dog snore next to me. Makes me wanna just chill...lol.. However I will begin my workout after my coffee. Doing some cardio today and a leg workout. My Christmas party is on the 17th! I may decide to go with a pair of nice jeans rather than the dress...depends on how Im feeling that day. Decisions, decisions!! Link to comment
BeenThereB4 Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 I danced this morning. I actually woke up with energy. My doctor said I was moving in the right direction. Keep going everyone. JA0371, jeans are a great choice too! Link to comment

Zaphod Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 I've been doing the odd bit of exercise as I usually do, it's not a new thing. Don't do much but I do a little bit of martial arts and so on, nothing much. But I'm having problems with the cold here in the UK currently. It makes me feel permanently kind of nauseated and weak. I do get my exercise done, but it really takes it out of me in this weather, even doing it indoors. It's just that my body doesn't do well in the cold generally. In the summer I'm a different person. These two extremes seem to get worse every year for me. I just want to go somewhere that's warm all the time. Also, is that you in your avatar? In which case, unless you've become mysteriously fatter since you took that, er, where's the problem? You look kind of normal sized, if not a bit slim. Just er... buy a dress, wait for a bit, then put it on, I would have thought? Where does the weight loss bit come in? Link to comment

Im not trying to lose weight, just trying to tighten and tone up. I like exercise because it just makes me feel better overall and makes me want to be healthier. Is that YOU in your avatar??

BeenThereB4 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 I danced and did yoga today, even though I didn't feel like it. Thank you everyone for holding me accountable, Link to comment
Roselynn1 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Day 3 (yesterday) didn't work out and I didn't even reach 10K on my fitbit (9,205). Definitely going to do something today. JA0371, thanks for starting this thread - it keeps us accountable and it's nice to have work out buddies! Link to comment
Lisii Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Woke up early, it is beautiful outside, taking my walking buddy for his daily 1km walk at 2pm today (he's in rehab after a car accident), then I 'm going for a quick joggy/run before taking the kids and a friend to the jumping rock for a swim. Have had a beautiful fresh berry and banana smoothie to start my day - and lots of water - trying to clear my skin before my Christmas roadtrip! feeling more motivated and happier than a week ago, but still feel frumpy... I would like to tighten and tone a bit before getting into a swimsuit. Link to comment

WithLove Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Do I feel bad that I'm eating M&M's while reading this thread? Hell yes. But they are so good. Link to comment
JA0371 Posted December 8, 2016 Author Share Posted December 8, 2016 Day 14: Getting my workout done this morning... It's shoulder day! Link to comment
Roselynn1 Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Day 14... Haven't posted in a few days but I worked out tonight and feel great!!! If I could bottle this feeling up, I'd work out everyday. I know this is a Christmas challenge tread but for me im using it to set myself up for a head start for the new year. Getting into good habits now and will have six months to be summer ready! Wanna tone my legs and arms. Link to comment
WithLove Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Do I feel bad that I'm eating M&M's while reading this thread? Hell yes. But they are so good. Since I posted this, I've really cut back on sweets and bad stuff. One of my main issues was that I have been lacking in how much water I've been taking in. I've been drinking a lot more of it now and really making better eating choices. Link to comment

I always always always eat better when I drink a lot of water!! Awesome job... Anyway..Im still working out....today Im just doing about 40 minutes of cardio before work but even that makes me much more energized. My diet has been cleaner, though not perfect. Harder this time of year, but at least I have a head start before New Years. Anyone got any healthy resolutions for the New Year? Link to comment
