Bitch/Brag: I used my phone to time my plank because I was tempted to cheat when I was counting it out myself. Things are getting hard!
GTKY: What would your friends and family say is your best personality trait?
I think they would say that I have a good sense of humor. For the most part, I try to keep things light-hearted and try not to get wrapped up in the day to day mundane stuff.
Done! I love this challenge and the group check in keeping me accountable.
Bitch/brag: I was going to split up the squats bc I ran (er...walked with a few bursts of running) first but then I powered through them. I've also decided that I will double the push-ups for as long as I can bc I do modified.
GTKY: hmmm, probably patience. I'm generally very patient and even keeled (until I'm not, ha...)

Bitch/Brag:I love my ass! I can do squats all day everyday! Push ups suck, and so do my arms! That's my goal over this challenge: sexify my arms!
GTKY: What would your friends and family say is your best personality trait? Hmm.. I would say I am a pretty determined person. I don't like being told I "can't" do something. If someone tells me I should do something because it is easier, I will prove that I can accomplish the harder version.
Bitch/Brag: I'm with mrss44 - I'm hating the pushups! I used a timer today for my plank to make sure I was going the full time, and based on how long the 20 seconds felt today, I definitely was counting too slowly the first few days. No wonder it was burning!
GTKY: What would your friends and family say is your best personality trait? I'm always there for people when they need me. Maybe not always in person, but I'm always there for my friends and family when they need me.
Bitch/Brag: I love the burn of soreness after a workout, I may be a gluten for punishment, but I did a few extras today to push myself. Other than push ups, they can fuck off!
GTKY: I am optimistic, often to a fault. I sincerely believe that people are good, honest, and fair...sometimes even after they show me otherwise.
Bitch/Brag: My right knee crunches when I do squats. It's not painful, but it squeaks me out!
GTKY: What would your friends and family say is your best personality trait? I'm a nurse and definitely a caretaker to the core. People would probably say that I'm caring.
Bitch/Brag: I'm wearing a dress I haven't worn since before my son was born! Excited that my pooch is starting to shrink!
GTKY: I'm pretty hospitable. I like to host people, make them comfortable, anticipate their needs, feed them well. I'd say that's what I'm known for. You will never feel unwelcome in my home
I'm all over maxi skirts lately! I bought 4 the other day and I'm not the type who wears anything other then jeans.

I bought my 1st one before Vegas in Feb and now I want 6 more! I am between sizes, and nothing seems to fit right. I think it is going to be a summer of skirts!

Mine starts popping a bit by the end of the squats. I wish it would stop.
Bitch/Brag: My left knee is cracking with every squat. And I am feeling the burn in my abs from 25 crunches, which is ridiculous. Through most of high school, I did 500 crunches every day before school. Clearly I've got some room for improvement.
GTKY: What would your friends and family say is your best personality trait? I am generally pretty calm and even-tempered.
Bitch/Brag: I paid $2000CDN for a hotel for a business trip this Summer and I won't be reimbursed until August. I have also paid the $500 registration and still need to book my flight. Ouch.
GTKY: What would your friends and family say is your best personality trait? Maybe that I'm reliable. (I asked DH and he says I'm loving.)
Me: 30 DH: 29; Married: September, 2010 TTC #1: April 2013 Benched: May 2013 Cancer(DH) Off the Bench: September 2014 July 2015 ER low sperm count and motility(radiation side effect). FET September 1,2015. BFP 9/9/15.- 3 on the way.
Bitch/Brag: Did this after 30 min on the elliptical and felt pretty good. (Probably only the second time in the last two months I've been to my gym. Oops.)
GTKY: What would your friends and family say is your best personality trait? My loyalty. I am completely dedicated to my "tribe". I also think that I'm hilarious, so I hope they'd say my wit.

Today's Challenge: Done.
Bitch/Brag: I hate hate hate push ups. I do modified, but I still feel like I can't do them correctly. I have zero arm strength. Also, my dogs knocked me over during my plank. They think I want to play...
GTKY: What would your friends and family say is your best personality trait? Probably my determination. I never give up on something that I want.

Bitch/Brag: I'm really starting to feel the squats now. Everything else has been pretty easy for me...so far.
GTKY: What would your friends and family say is your best personality trait? My close friends would say that I'm a great listener and give good advice; someone they can talk to about anything and feel better. MH says my perseverance, which I definitely agree with. I am extremely driven and don't stop until I reach my goals.
GTKY: What would your friends and family say is your best personality trait? I often put my loved ones needs above my own. I care...too much sometimes.
