30 LBS in 90 DAYS - First Round!

Are you ready? I'm so ready and excited!
Our journey starts tomorrow Feb 10th of 2014 and end by May 11th of 2014!

As suggested: Let's log in everyday, write our plan and goal in the long term and same for short term like every week!

I'm planning on consuming 1200sh calories.
Exercising 4 to 6 days weekly about one hour everyday but not sure when should I do it during the day! I think after breakfast before lunch!
Exercising will include 30 min cardio and running or jugging and for sure walking 15 mins because I have to walk to reach out the gym! and at least another 15 mins weight lifting and situps!

My back up plan for exercise is:

Walk 3 miles at home following this video! I like her a lot!

CW 290 lbs
1GW 260 lbs

I'm going to try cut sugar from my diet but use Splenda & dark chocolate and cut the coke!

Please, invite your friends and help them reach their goals with you!


Good luck to us :smile:

    It might be helpful for everyone to list their diet along with their work out plan for the next 3 months!

    As for diet, I`ll be eating 1200-1300 calories, and adding more to fill up the calories i burned!
    Going to be eating little cards, tons of greens and fruits! Breakfest every day, consuming almost 1/3rd the calories with a Banana, yogurt, whole grain toast and some pb/jelly or nutella with 2-3 glasses of water!
    Lunch: Probably some salad with a healthy sandwich containing some sort of protein (chicken) and 2-3 glasses of water!
    Dinner: Salad, water (finish off to drink 10 glasses a day!), some rice or some bread, with chicken breast
    Snacks: Fruits & granola bars
    I feel like that might be a realistic food diary!

    As for the workout, depends on the day. Going to be a mix of the following:
    -Elliptical: 30 minutes
    -Weight Lifting: 30 minutes (a mix of them, don't know whats what is called)
    -Skipping (Jump rope): 10-15 minutes
    -T25 Workout program
    -30 Jillian Micheal shred

    For the first month, I want to boosy my metabolism and try to get myself to be active. Going to head into the 30 day shred second month, and end it off with the T25 workout program. Hopefully this will help reach my goal!

    What about you guys? What will you do for diet/working out?!
    How will you obtain your goal?

    I really need this motivation from you guys! Its the 9th day since I started making my diet healthier but I want it to be even better and also have been going to group exercises like: Zumba, Pilates, Piloxing etc.

    I need motivation not to give up!

    I do not have any sort of diet planned out but tomorrow swim season is starting.
    5 days a week, every week I'll be in the water for 2 1/2 hours.
    It's an amazing workout and I've fallen in love with it. Hahah!
    My team is my family. <3
    Over the weekends I'll probably just be doing stretches. :)

    Very excited about tomorrow! Just completed my fit test! Lots to work towards! Have a great Monday everyone!!:flowerforyou:
  • HI everyone!
    Previously - I lost 56lbs in 2.5 months on Total Food Replacement - the inevitable happened - I piled it all on again (and some!) My goal this time, is to lose a steady 1.5 - 2lbs per week - eat healthy - increase my calorie output - and develop a better level of fitness.
    30BS on 90 days -
    I wont weigh in again until Friday - so my aim will be to be at a 35LB loss by the end of the challenge. I had lost 5lbs as at last Friday.
    I am on 1200 cals per day plus eating back some of my exercise calories. Am usually around 1400 -1500.
    Good Luck everyone - stay strong!

    Start weight: 184lb

    I keep it simple I eat whatever I want as long as I stay within 1200 calories, I at least exercise 5 times a week, I aim for 2x daily for about 2 hours of exercise in a day.

    I try to plan my meals for all day early it helps me make better choices b/c I want to get the most food for my calories.

    Normally I do not eat my calories back that I worked off unless I am hungry then I will eat some back.

    Hi everyone!
    I'm very excited for this challenge to start! I'm currently about 1/3 of the way through a spring challenge and have lost about a pound a week so far. That challenge only goes until March, so I think this 90 day challenge will keep me motivated into the warm weather!
    I've lost 45 lbs so far, pretty much just from staying below 1500 net cals a day and walking. My SW was 218 and my CW is 172. I've found it harder to lose consistently now that I'm moving toward the 160s, and I know that I need to start doing more vigorous exercise to get to my GW of 145.
    I'm also signing up for my first 5K which is going to be the first week of May, so this challenge will definitely motivate me to train for that!

    I will be doing one of my many exercise dvd's. Mainly cardio cause I really hate weights but I will do some.

    Diet: I will be eating between 1200-1400 carb/calorie cycling.

    for breakfast: usually a protein pancake
    lunch : a big salad with protein and some cheese with a vinegar & oil dressing.
    dinner: meat, veggie and sweet potato/brown rice
    snacks: fruit or yogurt or nuts

    This is so exciting:))))) Forgive the exuberance.

    Hi I'm from Yorkshire,England. I am 29 and will be turning 30 in July.I'd like to be a healthy weight and knock this poor dietary lifestyle for good. I lose big and regain within a year. I have lost and regained nearly 45lbs twice. I'm so sick of this vicious cycle of eating,losing,elation,re-gain then misery.I'm done.

    I guess so so are you too,hence your presence.

    I'm looking forward to meeting new people and getting involved in this.I currently weigh 185.8lbs. UGW is 130 but I will feel healthy at 140.

    My start weight on 27/01/14 was 188.8 and today I am 185.8 after a very poor week where I overindulged and gained 4lbs.

    Well bring on the pom poms coz we are getting rid of stomach,backside and tummy baggage.

    My choice of exercise is walking.I tend to cover 85miles per month in just pure exercise walking.I want to start running but my boobs are just too big for that kind of thing.Maybe I should try wearing 3 pairs.Sports bras are rubbish. Anyone want free boobs,I have lots to give away LOL

    Glad to be part of this group. Need motivation anywhere that I can get it!
    Just got back from the gym where I am trying to strength train. I have let myself go pretty badly and feel really weak. I also have a shoulder injury that I am trying to come back from. Baby steps!!
