Week 2 of Week by Week Challenge (Water & Cardio) - Phentermine.com

FocusedOnFitness · May 23rd, 2004, 10:31 AM

Hi, everyone. Tomorrow begins a new week of my personal challenge. I am glad to have company along the way. This works out great with accountability and my time crunch!

Starting this week, on top of having 12-14 servings of water daily, I will be accomplishing 5 cardio workouts of at least 30 minutes each. Tomorrow is my first day.

Wish me luck and good luck to all of you trying to change their habits!

FocusedOnFitness · May 24th, 2004, 02:26 AM

30 minutes of cardio done. I really kicked butt with intervals. Still need to take shower, but have half my water in at only 8:30am!

Heaven Sent · May 24th, 2004, 02:50 AM

Way to go girl. You are so motivated these days. Wish I could get in gear.

FocusedOnFitness · May 24th, 2004, 02:53 AM

Luna, thank you!

I just needed to start small and let it build up. I don't know why, but without having to worry about calories, fat, water, exercise, weights and everything all at once ... I feel better. Come on and drink that water!

CaterGator · May 24th, 2004, 05:02 AM

HI girls,
I had a BLAST in Montreal. I probably lost some water weight (from drooling)

but didnt get all my waters in...Lots of cocktails though! AND got in some extra cardio (shopping). LOL!

I'm adding to my daily 12 waters a new mini challenge of 5 f/v.

Holla back!

missus · May 24th, 2004, 06:30 AM

Hey eerbody!! Glad you had a great time Cater. Emma, keep it going girlie. Think I'll do bicycle today for 1 hour and the water for show.

Missus

BE BLESSED

FocusedOnFitness · May 24th, 2004, 08:40 AM

Cater, I wrote to you on the other thread, but it's good to have you back!

Missus, I am trying my best. Thank you for the daily encouragement. How was your bike ride? I used to cycle 3-4x a week and my butt never got used to it. LOL

CaterGator · May 24th, 2004, 08:41 AM

And show you must, woman!
LOL

So, I'm bored. What's going on?

FocusedOnFitness · May 24th, 2004, 08:56 AM

Susan, I don't know who were you talking to, but I just finished cleaning the house. I HATE IT! It used to come normal to me because I'm a germaphobe, but now I think dust isn't germs, but little friends. LOL

What about you?

CaterGator · May 24th, 2004, 09:01 AM

Been avoiding cleaning successfully ALL DAY! LOL

Actually, been waiting for 3pm to come along so I can chew on the ear of an Intuit Techie online. Those lazy ba$tards dont go online til noon! (Cali)

FocusedOnFitness · May 24th, 2004, 09:10 AM

LMAO at the lazy ba$tard comment. I tried to avoid cleaning also, but I heard tale of the dust bunnies plotting to overthrow me lastnight. I won't have it!

I know who you remind me of now, but you probably don't know who she is. Anyhooo, she's Amy on "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." She was turned into a rat and then turned back, but she's very pretty. I saw her on this morning and thought, "That's Cater!" Wish I knew her real name, but maybe I can find a picture!

CaterGator · May 24th, 2004, 10:25 AM

Hmmm...well, she's a lot skinnier than I am, and darker hair...Maybe! LOL

I re-ordered 30mg today plus some 15mg to battle the late night snack attacks...

We saw Shrek2 yesterday...It's HYSTERICAL! Highly recommend it--even better than the first one (oo-- a sequel that's BETTER?! That's a novel idea!)

OK, kids are home, I'm only down 1 bottle of water, and my house is...well...not gonna make it into Better Homes & Gardens today! LOL

AND I work tonight. Better go hustle my ***** to get dinner organized, figure out an outfit, etc.

Aye-yi-yi!

FocusedOnFitness · May 24th, 2004, 01:11 PM

Hi, everyone. 14 waters done! 30 minutes of butt kicking cardio completed this morning. Both of my steps are in check!

Cater, I just think you look like her or she looks like you. Have fun at Work

fattymcbutterpants · May 24th, 2004, 04:15 PM

Hi Emma,

I'm new to this and want to join your challenge. I was dieting pretty well on my own earlier this year and drinking 64 oz of water each day (I would fill a 2 qt pitcher at the beginning of the day and try to finish it before work at night). But when I lost control of my diet, I also rebelled by not drinking water (what is WRONG with me???) even though I wanted it. I craved it for a few days but eventually lost the craving - now I need to work back up to at least 64 oz, prob more because I'm almost 200 lb.

Tomorrow I'm gonna start posting when I complete a day of 64 oz (I'll do baby steps also and try to work up to more water next week). I just started the Phen today and have a pretty bad headache - I'm hoping the water will also help relieve that (although it sounds like this is a normal side effect - does it last forever or just while your body adjusts?)

missus · May 24th, 2004, 04:37 PM

Hey Emma, that bicycle kicks. One hour did me good. Got my water in too. Thanks to you girl.

CAter, you are probably at work now, but shout us out when you get in tonite girl. Hope you have a lovely time at work.

Hi Fattymcbutterpants. Love the name. Jump on in with us girl.<
