Excercise Check In week of Jan 12th

Oh my gosh.... today my body is saying to me that it HATES the stability ball... I feel like my legs are total mush! Its funny too because i swear doing the work out i was almost bored with how low the intensity was.... HA good thing I didn't try to do more!
 
i NEED to to this. for myself. i have always been tall and thin. underweight in my teen/early 20's. i'm around 5'10" or so and i used to weigh around 125. thats about 10-15 underweight, and i kept that weight for the longest time. even with my first pregnancy i only gained in my belly. then i got preggo with emma. gained more weight than with chloe. then when she was 3 months old, i got preggo with Aidan. still hadn't lost all the weight from having Emma. but, i'm one of those lucky people that seems to lose weight with no effort (you can hate me, lol). i lost pretty much most of it within a year. but, as i am now 30, i see that my metabolism is WAY slower now. i'm starting to gain in my tummy, hips, butt and thighs. eww. so, while the weight number isn't as important to me as the toning itself, i'll post it and keep track. i think i'm actually on the higher end of the weight class for my height, but i'd like to get it a tad bit lower, lol. i just bought a ball. need to use it! oh, and i don't have a scale. so i may not keep up with that real well. my MIL has one, and i weigh myself when i go there. i may just have to get one, lol.

okay.
start: 145
Goal: 135, but mostly just tone up the yuckyness

Monday: nada
Tuesday: nada:o

extra goal: drink more water. i never drink it, atleast not during the winter. also, just stay motivated! i can do this!

Go Jami on spinning today!

Yeah LuAnn that is totally true, my previously undiscovered muscles are haaaaating me right now! I guess I'll have to keep it up!
 
I'm so embarrassed that I refuse to give my original AND current weight. Let's just say I still need to lose 80 pnds for my goal weight. I would be happy with 40, darn those charts LOL! My total loss for last year was 29 pnds. I haven't weighed yet this year.

Walking the dog a mile a day. Today was horribly cold and I felt like dirt so we skipped it. But I'm gonna jump in here tomorrow! Thanks for starting this little topic!
 
Annie
Starting Weight: Hippo
Goal Weight: A much smaller hippo

Monday: Hauled laundry upstairs and scrubbed the wood floors by hand... about 2 hours of sweating-like-a-hog.
Tuesday: 30 minutes of headache-inducing pilates
 
I totally need a kick in the butt to get started, so I'm hoping you ladies will give it to me!

Start: Weighed in at the doctors this morning, fully clothed at 129.
Goal: 120, but my real goal is to tone up and lose the flab, I don't really care about the number.

Monday: does sitting around all day count? Knitting? Quilting? Guess not.
Tuesday: more sitting around.

Starting weight: let's just say my size 14 jeans that I'm wearing right now are a little snug
Goal weight: ultimately my goal is about 140. I've learned that for my body, that's where I feel the best. When I weigh less than that, I look WAY too top-heavy.

Tues - 30 min Wii Fit (had to cut it short for a dentist appt this morning).

Other goal: Drink more water (I'm averaging 60oz right now... I want to do 80)
 
Hey, I wanna feel pretty too! :thumbup: I started today because the kids went back to school so I was a) up early and b) had the Wii all to myself. My goal is to stick with it everyday

Starting weight: 184 (5'10)
Goal weight: not really a goal to loose weight, wanna start getting more active and tone up some flabby areas.

Sunday - 5 minutes of hauling dd's old dresser to the curb for trash pickup

*Wednesday - 33 min Wii Fit (Yoga, Strength and running)


Other goal: I need to drink more water also, I'm really bad about that.

anyone have one of those fitness games (like Jillian Michaels Fitness Ultimatum) for the Wii? I was looking at those and wondered if it was worth it or just similar to the regular Wii Fit program.
