I got an email from someone on sparkpeople that they started a striiv group. I saw someone had a post about where to buy it but more important there was an update on the software. I downloaded it. Very cool. I had to get up and do those 2 miles this morning on the treadmill and get some challenges done.
I did think of something else I wanted to talk about but then I didn't know how to sign into blogger. I had to figure it out. I got it now. Have a great day.
Striiv update. Having way to much fun with it. My friend Cindy is back on the losing wagon. I have to keep doing these challenges so I do push her. Hey Jillian, she thinks she has to hold the treadmill up. I assured her that it is OK to let go. I had a couple of days that I got all the challenges done.
Safety at the gym.
That clip thing on a string. So no buddy really uses these things but maybe they should. I was at the gym and saw someone fall of the end of the treadmill. So I did point out to her the safety clip. Just clip it to someplace on your t-shirt. If you are new to the treadmill or trying a change to your normal walk clip it on. If you are starting to run clip it on. When that woman was falling I'm sure all she could think was "stop, stop, well it would of stopped.
The tools we need to succeed are there, why don't we use them. Put the clip on and let go of the bars. If people are willing to take an ice shower because it burns a few extra calories, I am guessing you can burn the same # of calories just by moving your arms.

I feel like Edison . Edison learned how not to make a light bulb before he ever learned how to make a light bulb. With that said I too learned how not to lose and maintain weight loss.
So once again I had to test something out. I have a friend that said lets just give it our best for the next month and see how we do. Well week 1 & 2 went OK but then week 3 on the weekend It was like we had never eaten all month. I should of known this weekend was going to be rough because of the 3,6,9 thing. So are we back to week 1 or are we on week 4? Either way we need to be a little more prepared come week 6.
So I will call my friend Amy. She is an internet friend about the same size trying to tone and control snack intake and lose the last 5 pounds. She is already down 40 pounds. Then there is my local friend we will call Betty is more on the start of a journey. Betty is trying to add more workout time and follow the 27 rules. I too follow the 27 rules, Amy is going to follow a cottage cheese, protein shake type of a eating plan. I will keep you posted as to how we do. Amy is also doing lemon water to drink in the morning. Lemon water gets things moving. It helps the liver. It is the taste of sour. When we did the healthy detox we drank a whole lemon in water in the morning. It does help move things. The liver governs emotions so if you add lemons and eat a healthy diet don't be surprised if you don't run through emotions during the day. If you want to do the detox 8 week program contact one of my followers Arthur. He has 28 year in the industry. I trust him with my health. He is in Racine WI but he does skipe.
OK back to our weightloss study. We are now starting week 5. So far I think I am down 6 pounds. Not to bad. This past weekend we had to go to Chicago 2 days for a graduation. Columbia. Daughter is in fashion studies. I put her fashion runway on my facebook.
This is the sushi I had when we went out to eat. It was very good. You can see just a bit of dear child plate. Hers had some tempura things on top. One of the rules are no deep fried so I really read everything. We walked so much this past weekend. 12000+ steps each day. Every place you went you walked, and walked fast.
Well it is back to work in the morning. I did workout with jillian w/ weights. I do enjoy kettlebells but I really worry about our tile floor and tv. I am still enjoying my striiv and slimkickers website. I do have to email my friend that is one of the developer how much I enjoy her site.
Maybe I will do a short daily up date. I love everything on salad so you know when I made those dirty beans and rice I put a big scoop on salad greens. Oh so good.
I did do the your shape kinect this morning and got almost 4000 points on the block punch. Then I had to do the jillin kinect game.
