I am 100% in, this could put me at healthy BMI, that would deserve a *happy dance* even if I don't win

I will go with the scales rather than the wii and say my starting BMI is 25.7

Allright first day of the madness! What are all of you doing to lower your BMI's? I have been doing a lot of cardio! The snow makes it hard to run outdoors so I have been doing dvds and my wii! I wear a heart rate monitor with chest strap durning my workout and then because I haven't figured out how to manualy input my calorie burn I just adjust the running uphill catagory to show the amount of total calories burned. As far as food I am doing a daily intake of 1200 on days I don't workout, and 1500 on days I work out. I am on a whey protein that has been very kind to me! I am very interested to see what works for all of you!

to lower my bmi I am doing lots of cardio at the gym at my college! I am so excited I got in an hour last night after missing monday and im headed back tonight : )

bjshooter

I have one week of the EA active nine week programme left, after I am going to concentrate on just cardio for a few weeks, see if that improves my stalled weight

jrlenig

I am drinking all of my water everyday and my goal is to have cardio everyday, that does not always say i am going to log, my cardio this morning was great but I am also spring cleaning so the extra cardio there will most definitely help, and hopefully it is nice enough this Saturday for a family bike ride!

jrlenig

Oh and yeah on Tuesdays I will post March Madness End of Week # check in, thread!

Hope I'm not too late!! It's the 2nd. :happy: I saw 'March Madness" and after being married to a basketball player for 5 years, the Topic Headline caught my attention!!

My current BMI is 24.9!!

I work out 6 days a week. Or at least that's my schedule when I don't let life get in the way. Still working to get back on track after a 5 month hiatus from my first attempt at weight loss with MFP. So I'd love to join and check in with you all on your journeys!!

:happy: I know it's the 2nd, but I hope it's not too late. I promise I haven't gained or lost anything in the past 24 hours - lol. My current BMI is 26.3. I've just started back to the gym and try to put in at least an hour 3 - 4 days a week. I work full time and rarely get up from my desk, so I really hope the treadmill can come to my rescue and help me take off these pounds. Winning isn't my goal, lowering my BMI to a Normal level is what I'm after.

I love a challenge! My current BMI is 26.0.

That's cool. I probably won't win, but this seems to be more challenging than losing 5 lbs a month.
