    Are we still using this thread?

    So it took me 1 week to work off the 4.4 lbs I gained during vacation. Now I am back to 148.6, putting me about 14lbs away from my first major goal!

    Last weeks challenge was to increase your usual burn by 100. This is really tough for me since even when I work my hardest, I only burn about 200-250 at best. I figured the only way to increase, would be to simply add a new exercise in. I started jump roping! I skip for 10 minutes every day, 10 seconds resting, and 20 seconds jumping. I burn a solid 100 (give or take 10 calories) for these 10 minutes. It was a great challenge and I'm glad to have found skipping. My calves are burning and sore each day but I really hope this means they will change shape. Calves are something I've disliked about myself for years!

    I'm going to continue drinking 14 cups of water a day, AND adding skipping each day. Even on rest days I would like to skip, because it is only 10 minutes and is very good for me.

    How are you ladies doing? What shall we focus on for our next challenge?

    Glad this thread popped back up! I am currently 145.2, only 10 lbs from my first goal :happy:

    I am really focusing on doing strength training with bodyweight workouts. It is super tough and doesn't burn many calories which is good because I am having a hard time eating enough lately anyway. :smile:
