OK EVERYONE!!!! We have officially made it for 60 DAYS!!!!!:drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

WOW! Time is really flying! Time to take those pictures again. :glasses: Don't feel that you have to post them now, but hopefully by the end, everyone will show some transformation (begin/end) pictures:smile: The main thing is that you take pictures so YOU can SEE your PROGRESS!!! "Remember we talked about non-scale victories earlier."

So, if you are doing the ABS challenge this month, I found a modification for the side planks that is really helping me right now. I can't do the full ones for very long (maybe 2 at most), but I hope to develop enough strength be the end to do the full length ones. But for now, here is how I do them:

    Angela I look back through my diary and found that December was my best recent month. I was not sick. I measured every thing and I exercised 20 days out of the month. Also I did not eat back all of my exercise calories. I best be getting back to that.

    24Sept, Kudos to you for doing so well in December!!! :drinker: :drinker: That is a very tough month to eat well and exercise consistently. It always does me in even when I "try".

    I think January was pretty good for me when I was more focused on eating well etc. March is very promising as well. Feb was so so but I still made good choices. I wish I could increase the exercise but when I push myself I start having my aches and pains. My hips have been bothering me a lot more lately. I am calling ortho today to make an appt. :ohwell:

    I didn't do the abs challenge yesterday. :grumble: I am going to Bikram today which is pretty challenging for my core. I hope I can squeeze it in today. I woke up with low back pain.

    Have an awesome Friday!!! :flowerforyou:

    Hello everyone!

    So happy to be a part of such an amazing group!

    This week has been tough...during my exercise walk with my hubby on Tuesday I passed out and had excruciating chest pain. He ended up calling an ambulance and I had an ER visit... Good thing my cardiac workup was GREAT!!! I have been putting the pedal to the floor with my workouts and caused costochondritis! So, I had to take it easy for a few days. I was back on the treadmill today. I am not going to let something so little ruin my focus!!!

    Pain and exercise for those overweight is very hard - but I am determined to push through and make a huge breakthrough!!!

    Keep your heads up and be proud of all that we have accomplished!

    Hugs - Megan
