I would try if there weren't 2 and a half feet of snow on the ground here. Again i say I would try, but 3 inches would be more preferable up here...

Key thing here being me, saying that's what i would do, but in another sense i agree with Zylos, Man up, or you can visit me and run in the snow up here, take your pick!

>makes excuses about why he can't do something
>tells someone else to 'man up'

This thread is for encouragement. Zylos has been around long enough that I'm sure Arlen knew he was joking. You haven't. Encourage or

This fitness month thing is a really neat idea. :B I'll try my best to give it a shot. Of course, I'll need to prepare for the damage that will come with the vacation coming up next week.

My weight mostly went up mid last year from a lack of doing anything (i.e. being on the internet and sitting around playing/making games).
My goal isn't necessarily to count the numbers I lose. I want the differences to show up in looks mostly. ;o; My plan is to go back to the Pilates I did every night years ago, and tone up a bit. :B I'm also going to try and drink more water, instead of soda and sweet tea (this one is going to be tough for me, because I like the energy boost soda gives me at work). B(

In a lot of cases, I think cutting back on what you drink is even more important than cutting back on what you eat, though. :B

I'm down to 210lbs ;]

YOU GO GIRL!

Acolyte · March 28, 2013, 09:55:44 PM

Oh, I forgot to post my goal. I want to do at least 30 minutes of exercise per day, and limit myself to drinking mostly water, if not only water.

There's a lot of cool water flavor squirt thingies that you can add to water and make it taste great.

I forget what they're called exactly, but they *should* all have 0 calories. :>

Mio water.

Jules · March 29, 2013, 01:07:13 AM

I did great with my goals today. I'm proud of me

Now I just need to do this every day o.o

crow5derlock · March 29, 2013, 09:29:55 AM

No soda, not a problem, get mio energy, it's healthier and makes water taste good too. but the energy ones only have 2 flavors. also if you have fancy tall square glasses you can use one of the flavors (I forgot which one) to make a blue drink and act like your in the world of Tron.

Acolyte · March 30, 2013, 02:40:21 AM

I believe you mean star trek, sir.

Moss. · March 30, 2013, 03:48:55 AM

Haha, just not saw all those replies.

I ran two times this week. Close to my "at least 3 times" goal, but I think it's a better idea for me to start slow.

... I get shin splints easily. And blisters (I need new shoes). Also, god damn my calves hurt.

But hey! I discovered that running right after work is a much better time for me. My girlfriend isn't even home yet, so I've got nothing better to do.

Holkeye · March 30, 2013, 04:43:51 AM

I hit my goal of 180 today.

I meant what i said, and i said what i meant. And i never payed much attention to the drinks in star trek so i didn't know they had them.

Edit:Or you could simply take a nontoxic blue highlighter, open it, and put the ink and some clear flavoring into your water. then under a black-light it glows, it tastes good, and it's safe to drink. We did this for a science experiment in 7th grade, i forgot what for though.

pacdiggity · March 30, 2013, 11:08:25 AM

You only get that awesome tangy taste with the toxic highlighters though.

Acolyte · March 30, 2013, 08:47:14 PM

While that Daft Punk music video was entertaining, I don't consider it "Tron".

Jules · April 01, 2013, 01:42:18 PM

In the last 2 days I met 4 of my 5 goals. Mostly because I caught that wretched stomach virus and could keep nothing down over the weekend. But it counts

MOAR GOALS

Set them now.

Moss. · April 02, 2013, 02:54:31 AM

I ran today. I may run tomorrow, too. I'm actually noticing that I'm making it farther and farther without stopping, and my legs/blisters are getting better / more resilient. So I may go for two in a row.

Now if only I can stop eating so much, and stop myself from thinking "oh, I ran today, I can have that." :\

Holkeye · April 02, 2013, 03:40:58 AM

My new goal is more lifting, less cardio.

Acolyte · April 03, 2013, 06:19:16 AM

I've been meeting my water goal pretty well. Had a soda from burger king the other day, but other than that I've been good. Only exercised 20 minutes today and yesterday though.

crow5derlock · April 03, 2013, 09:57:05 AM

Still trying to gain a few pounds, i need to check with a scale and i definitely need to find more food to help gain that weight.

D&P3 · April 03, 2013, 01:19:56 PM

I haven't eaten anything for a few days, I don't feel sick or anything and could probably eat something, but I've had no craving to eat (so I haven't)... Should I be worried?

tSwitch · April 03, 2013, 02:18:43 PM

I'm going to start going to the gym again tomorrow. On my remote days from work I'll go and do cardio for 30m or so.

I've been eating ok, but didn't much care yesterday because I had to drive Tom to the airport. So I'll make up for it the rest of the week.
