    Just finished a September challenge, and I'm ready for more! I'd like to lose 5 lbs, and I'd also like to eat more meat/protein in general.

    Sorry it took me so long to get back here. I'm still finding my way around. I've lost 4+lbs so far. Yippee!

    Chris Powell has his clients do 1,200 to 1,800 calories a day. Of course, those on the show make exercising a full time job and I can't do that. But I'm doing 1,500 calories a day and that seems to be a good number for me. Plus, what I really like is he does a sort of CHEAT DAY...but there are two rules; the calories have to be eaten outside of the home, and are limited to an extra 1,000 calories. I've been doing that and it's working - you feel like you have a day to get something extra, but you still lose weight! Oh, and the rationale behind eating the calories outside of your house is that he wants you to view your home as a safe and healthy place, not a place where you binge on junk. LOL Just makes sense to me.

    Go Team! We can do this!

    down one pound! not as great a start as I hoped, but.. slow and steady wins the race.

    and as a continuation from my last month's goal.. I've packed a healthy lunch every single day instead of getting takeout with my coworkers. Yes!

    I'm in! I actually started working out Oct 1st with Halloween in mind, so I'm already on track. My goal is to lose 5 pounds by then, but that probably won't happen. I want to get in shape enough to wear a shirt that shows off my stomach.

    start weight: 140 lbs
    current weight: 138 lbs

    workout:
    weightlifting 4 days a week for 40 min, followed by 20 min on the elliptical, swimming the other 3 days

    How'd everyone do this weekend? I managed to lose a pound, so I'm down 2 so far. 2 pounds in 2 weeks is pretty much right on track for where I want to be. Still don't know what I want to be for Halloween, though.
