Ok guys...we now have 77 members!! :bigsmile:

I am trying out the latest chart. I'm making sure it isn't too small to see. If it is, then I'll delete it and try again.




GREAT SUCCESS!!

hooah_mj

Simply wonderful chart!
Thx for such a great challenge:flowerforyou:

I'll be out of town for a day or two, so I'll continue to check in for any mini-challenges or changes...and yeah, a Buddy 4 Summer

newmeat30

Question of the Day: How are you planning to lose the weight to meet your challenge goal?

The first 20lbs came off with 4 - 5 days of intense cardio, but everything stagnated last Fall and the cardio was no longer enough :huh: so after trying a variety of workouts, I finally took that big leap of faith and tried BodyPump....WOW and OMG! 10lbs just melted away :devil: Weights...significant weights changed everything and that 6 month wall came crashing down...amazing.

So I definitely plan to continue with BodyPump 2 - 3 times a week. I still get in 2 days of Zumba and a couple Power Yoga sessions just to keep things changed up from day to day.

I have not been at my present weight in 15 years! Once I break thru those mid -130s, I'll be 20+ years back :laugh: Rewinding the clock, folks...I may be 50, but you won't be able to tell by looking at me!!

:flowerforyou: 50, semi-retired teacher, 141lbs and 5'4.... So if you're looking for a fireball grandma-type and want to really push hard for -12lbs, I'm your gal! :laugh:

newmeat30

You got it!

newmeat30

@suzooz and @edr2b

I think that it is wonderful that you both have set weekly goals for yourselves! Big favor: When we start posting weekly weight please make sure I know what your current weight is. I don't want to accidentally mistake it for the goal weight and mark it wrong on the chart.


Best of luck to everyone!!! We have an amazing group and I look forward to seeing some great success!

feliciapeters

i admit it, i didnt do 30 day shred today, truthfully i was TIRED! i did do 60 min at the gym, (i do 45 min 5 days a week & shred every day normally) but with dinner & checking homework & all the other stuff, I just didnt. Ive been doing it for 16 days straight & the only other day i missed was when we were looking for the lost dogs.
i'm back on track tomorrow
and somehow i managed to down 16 glasses of water yesterday - might as well have moved my desk in the ladies room LOL
only 10 today, so at least my eyeballs arent floating anymore.LOL!!!!!!!!
