Awesome job on the situps and pushups! Do you think you'll be able to pull off the trifecta?

Thanks, but I don't see anyway of pulling off the 20 miles, will probably only get to 5

Oh well, that can be reavaluated next week. Just hope my stomache isn't feeling too bad in the next few days

Pffft, slacker... week ain't over yet -- get out there and go !

Just kidding . Holy cow, I wouldn't have thought that many pushups and situps were possible in a week, much less in a day!!! I don't know how you do it, Ian, but I'm not going to count you out for the 20 yet . Awesome!

Yes I agree with Epixi, those numbers are astounding Ian.

We've had a family tragedy today, I won't go into it we lost someone special unexpectedly today. Shocking and sad. Nonetheless I will still keep posting.

2. Walk 10k this week: M-2k. W-3k, Th-1.5K
3. Swim 1x: Th
4. Weight training 1x: T
5. Increase Omega 3: M-Y, T-Y, W-Y, Th-Y, F-Y

My calorie count was high today but it was all healthy food. I haven't walked in two days because I have been too busy. I might make it to 5K by Monday but not 10. So glad to see others doing well. Keep up the good work and have a good week end.
Robin, my thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time.

I mentioned that my calorie count was high yesterday 1263, my weight is up this morning. I think I found my tipping point. Keep calories at or under 1000.

Hi everyone. Wow, busy thread this week!! Looks like everyone is doing well.
Sorry I've been awol. Busy week with dinner out, repairman for a/c (and still isn't fixed--rrr!!!) and doing yardwork.

Very humid here so I haven't had the energy to exercise but I am maintaining so that's good. Have definetely been eating lighter lately as it's too hot to cook much. I would love to lose 3lbs before my birthday which would be a lb a week--doable.
I have to make sure I keep my carbs in check!

Have a good weekend everyone.
Jenn
