cut my mother's dog (2.5 hour job in awkward positions), mowed her lawn OMG that was hard, swept the driveway and cleaned a little for her too. God I have no arm muscles, I am aching all over. Good work out I guess, and 1 hour of walking.
 
That's a lot of work and not very many calories. That should be good for the scale. Your weight might go up temporarily if you are sore. It usually does for me.
 
Weighed in just now 0.8 kg less than Monday, have done 1 hour cardio every day this month and kept off the couch and been active in some form for hours each day and I am soon out for a 5 km walk this morning. It's Happy Friday tomorrow!!! I am looking forward to it and bought chocolate tofu ice cream yesterday since I shopped in the store which has it, it's staying in the freezer, felt confident that I could buy it already without eating it.

I signed up for a weakness goal 2 for 30 min exercise at home, and I am soo lay in the evening and have only done it once - but it has me so guilty about it that I do 1 hour cardio outside instead. No points or that, but still a win.

Total: 1425.
Walked 8.4 km.
 
Weighed in today, I am 137.4 which Means I have lost 1.4 kg since Monday and 2.6 kg since 1st of Nov. Today is Happy Friday so I hope weight loss still shows on Monday's weigh in.
 
Not sure why 1 hour of outside exercise doesn't count for the 30 minutes at home? Exercise is exercise, right (obviously not, but it's doing SOMETHING!). Anyway, enjoy your Friday "off"!
 
It's a weakness challenge and my very weakness is exercise at home, I need to get started on push ups and whatever the strengtnening exercises are called in English further more I have noticed a loss in flexibility all over and need some streching and yoga to loosen up.

Outdoor exercise (cardio) does not Count in the challenge because I love it and become additced to it without an effort

Was at 750 cals when I got there and really don't think I ate >1600 in day's total. Wore a new blouse I just bought a size smaller than I normally do and it did fit! At first I was NO NO NO it crimpede in the washer I will never get into it.. But I did easily. Super evening.
 
Thaks Jen, clothes fitting is far far better than the weight!! :D

Today I am 1,9 kg more than Friday morning, well I had Happy Friday and yesterday I had lots of tamari with my sushi, I used a new brand I hadn't tried before and it was crazily salty. Weight will come down Again in a few days.

Came here to tell myrelf exactly the same, today is kind of a bad day, had a low cal day yesterday, felt not hungry or deprived of anything. Today I had had 500 cals before my 2pm walk. After 3-4 km I hit the wall and got very slow and tired. Took the bus across town which gave me motion sickness. Now I have an awful headache, nausea and a never ending HUNGER.
Must remind myself that I have had 4 weeks of doing good, tried on some new pants yesterday which can almost zip now (bought them this summer on sale and could hardly get them half up my thighs). It's not worth it to attack a box of chocolate trying to quick fix this moment. I need to be consistant with calories too and not have small lunches just because I discovered I feel the same fullness with half the cals.

Walked 5 km. Never did yoga yesterday, was supposed to be alone, but got one girl and we ended up going to bed early and read the books she had borrowed at the school library. When she fell asleep I youtubed a couple of 'supersize super skinny' ..so weak I am apparently. Tonight I've got 7 chapters study work - and 6 of 'em in Norwegian so I read it slower. So many excuses..
 
A new low! Congratulations! You'll be under 300 in no time.

You may be slow at studying Norwegian, but you are light years ahead of me. Lutefisk is the only Norwegian word I know. I assume you know Danish and I know you are fluent in English. You also know Norwegian well enough to study. You're quite the polyglot. Do you speak any other languages?
 
A new low Again today 137.0 - I will cross over the 300 border Again soon, thought I was done doing that ;p

I spent all of my summers in Sweden so I'm in for that language too, Danish, Swedish and Norwegian are pretty simular and the dialect of my Island (Bornholm) does reveal a larger Swedish immigration in the early 1800's or so and way before that, Bornholm is just 37 km from Sweden so we have mixed the languages for ages and ages. Danish and Norwegian are very simular in writing, but not that much in pronunciation. German is another language we learn in primary school, but I have probably forgotten half of the grammar rules, but understand most of it. Had two years of Spanish and of Serbo-croatian but the S-C was 15+ years ago so it's quite rusty. Love languages.
