    Need some help and motivation. I did awesome yesterday. Burned 550 calories taking 2 cardio classes. And ate 200 calories less. I feel really tired today and don't want to work out. But I'm afraid I will be behind in losing my 1 pound goal for this first week. Anyone have advice?

    I worked out harder yesterday and sure didn't feel like it again today. I wake up at 5:30am, drink coffee and then workout. Just push through it. Once I got going I was good. Get your favorite music playing to help motivate you. I also ate horrible at lunch today and yesterday. :grumble: That is not good at all! I'm going to have to kill some extra workouts this week.

    I'm the same height as you and I weigh 167 now. I just posted a pic I took over the weekend. You maybe happy once you hit 155-160. I said I was going for 150 but will be happy in that range. After I took that pic over the weekend, I knew I would be just fine with 155-160.

    question for everybody: how do you know how much cals do you burn. Do you have HRM, or do you go by cals on the exercise equipment? A long time ago I read in some ftnes magazine that exercise eq. is not accurate and you havve to burn extra 20 cals to burn actually 100 so 100=120 cals.

    Silverlil - yes I use a HRM. I never go by the machines b/c they are not accurate.

    I use an HRM watch and it actually tells me I burn more than the machine does. My watch is also close to MFP and Livestrong website. The elliptical is way off.

    I hope everyone stays with this! I know most challenges die down after a few weeks. If we all stick to it, check in, encourage each other and just stay focused then we can keep this going.

    Think BIKINIS :happy:

    Is it too late to join? well, starting weight is 144, goal weight is 125-130. So I guess, 1 pound a week would get me there! which, actually, doesn't seem too bad, but i m going to shoot for sooner! lol

    I managed to burn 555 cals in 75 minutes last night. The night before I burned 569 in 65 minutes...not sure why it was so much harder last night! Of course, I am going by the machine's numbers. I plan to get a HRM soon but regardless of the numbers, I'm burning more than in the past with this challenge for sure!
