Merry Tuesday Ladies!

Last week:

This week: 

Goal:

Are there any summer activities you feel you need to pack in before it's fall?

And the leaderboard!

Our leading ladies are tied up with 11 weeks!

@ItsStackie - 9 miles for the month isn't too far off your mile a day average goal!  Keep up the good work!

@kdc2007 - Hope starting PiYO has been going well!

@phishgirl29 - Hope your recovery continued/s to go well and you took it sufficiently easy at the gym!

@Pitchslap - I love that your 5ks were the same course to make the comparison so easy!  Hope having your ILs in town isn't too terrible (though with your MIL, I'm not sure how my well-wishes will really help).

@tiffletons518 - I think you win the most hardcore award for last week between running while sick and shitstorm cleaning!

10 weeks for @WorkInIt - I hope your new treadmill is rocking!

8 weeks for @WasNotWas - Keep on rocking that weight-loss lady!!

With 3 weeks -

@calikat80 - Awesome week last week!  I hope this past week was equally as good!

@mshuky - I love your reward system - definitely sounds motivating!

With 2 weeks -

@Lizzybizzy80 - Good luck on your next dietbet!  I didn't know you could *win* money too!  That's extra awesome!

@RedCherry1109 - Maybe you made your 1st goal?  If not you must be suuuuper close - woohoo!

And a warm welcome to @nikel13 - Hope your little black dress challenge is going well still!

Last week: some gym time and lots of walking/fitbit step tracking. Diet is going well.

This week: much of the same. DH is away so I've been doing a ton of stroller walks and playground trips with O.

Goal: tone up!!

Are there any summer activities you feel you need to pack in before it's fall? Swimming! Due to my surgery, I haven't been able to swim and it's killing to me. I'd love to go layout/swim and have a beer, but all that is hard with a one year old. One day...

Last week: Thanks @musicalsilver I am offically at 19 miles for the month.  I got three runs in for a total of 10 miles!  I ate well until the other day when I had a sick baby, and then I got sick. =(

This week: Since I'm sick I'm setting a goal of only 2 runs, but hopefully around 6 miles, so I can catch up next week.

Goal: 82 days until the Half Marathon

Are there any summer activities you feel you need to pack in before it's fall? I think my pool deserves a few more dips, maybe another pool party too!

Last week: I did great, I think. And I'm mostly proud of curbing that night time snacking. I'm already starting to see the results. We now go for a nice walk after dinner. Then I put kiddo to bed, and grab a huge bottle of water with a bunch of fruit in it (lemons, grapefruit, mint, berries are all contenders). Works great...but then Sunday came and the in-laws came over with Famous Dave's dinner. (OT: LO had the best time ever. First time I've actually seen him eat a chicken drumstick. And ribs. I know it's not the healthiest, but he eats so well the rest of the time that I felt the need to let him indulge.) I actually thought I ate well. Hardly had any fries. Just a few ribs, corn on the cob, and a corn muffin. Look at calories....WTF? 1500 cals roughly? And I was still hungry. So I indulged the rest of the night, but at least I made myself write it all down. Not going to be doing Famous Dave's again any time soon.  

This week: Did well yesterday and today. Trying to do more of the same as last week with curbing night time snacking. Trying to fit in my workouts before 7 am is going to be a challenge (I have to be home by 7 for kiddo's morning feed since not feeding during the night any longer), but I can get it done. 

Goal: I want those abs and a much slimmer physique. I want to be able to rock bootie shorts and get back to my pre-preggo weight (so I can feel calm and content trying for baby #2). 

Are there any summer activities you feel you need to pack in before it's fall? I want to hit the pool without the kid a couple of times just to relax. I also want to go apple picking with him, but we keep waiting for him to start walking on his own (I guess that's a fall activity). And I want to get on a bike a couple of times for a ride with hubby.

Last week: eh, not the best because we had guests in town. Out for ice cream and this weekend was a shorter "long" run so it was kind of a mellow week.

Next week: step it up both running and better eating. Ran today so that's good. Long run this weekend is 16 miles, eek!

Goal: marathon (and body to look like I could run a marathon!)

Summertime: POOL! we have one and I try and swim laps whenever I can, which is like never. Haha. Also lots of outdoor running and hiking. I run and hike in the spring and fall (and sometimes winter too) so swimming is the sport du summer for me.

Last week I kept up with the walking. I walk first thing in the morning and then two laps in a fancy mall at lunch because it has AC.

This week more of the same but it will be tougher because I have a conference and then alone with B for a three day weekend.

Goal is to keep losing weight and inches. I've lost about ten lbs in 5 weeks. I eye the store windows in the mall but haven't bought anything. I may buy something from Carolina Herrera or Ralph Lauren when I reach my goal.

No more summer, I've reached my limit of sweat, thigh chafing and bugs.

Last week... I don't even know what the hell I did!!! Shitstorm flood was my main focus! This week I plan to take full advantage of my brand new treadmill!!!!!!! My goal this week is to lay off the junk! I gained a couple pounds..... I've been naughty with my diet.... I kind of didn't care for a few days.... Why does summer have to end?!!

Pretty much all of these words. I haven't run in a week. Not good. And, half of my basement was occupying my kitchen. So, it was either takeout, or something I could easily put on a cookie sheet and throw in the oven. I'm getting back into it this week.

Last week:

LBD.  I feel like I ate a little better.

This week: 

LBD.  I need to add in some swimming or something.

Goal:

I would like to feel better and maybe fit in my clothing a little better.

Are there any summer activities you feel you need to pack in before it's fall?

I'd like to get in a couple more swimming days.

WasNotWas

Last week: only ate restaurant food twice and only drank twice. Lost 2 lbs (well 1.3, to be precise)

This week: keep the 2 a week thing going, it's totally reasonable (just realized I haven't had McDonald's in a month!). I need to get some workouts in as well.

Goal: if I can lose 4 lbs in the next two weeks I will have lost 20 lbs by Labor Day, 30 lbs is the goal (53% complete)

Summer activities: we haven't been to the zoo this summer yet, and they have a pretty dope splash pad that shuts down in the "winter". hmm...and running through the sprinklers, I hope Ty gets walking in time that we can run through the sprinklers in the summer!

itsStackie

@wasnotwas running through sprinklers is the best!!

RedCherry1109

I made my goal On Tuesday, 20 lbs are gone!!!! Now on to my second goal to lose another 20 lbs.

I walked a few miles last week

This week has started off slow again but LO seems to be back on his schedule so I'm starting to walk while his napping

To Feel Better about My self!

Question- no, we did a lot this summer and ready for fall to be here!
