So I am a very competitive person, but friendly competitive! IS there any one on here that needs to lose around 45 pounds and wants to try a little competition to see who can lose the most weight in a month? I know it's sounds silly, but I think it might help to keep me motivated!:laugh:

    Count me in! The smallest I've ever seen my body is 20lbs less than i am now ... but to lose 45 is my ideal... maybe I can push a little harder if I stick with you all!!

    Hello!
    I have 45 pounds to lose, so hope you don't mind me joining in - I love/need motivation!!!

    Today, July 18th - I weigh (sigh) 219 lbs.

    I'm at home with the kids and packing for a two week vacation . . . I have my fingers crossed and a bit of a plan to continue with eating right, but leaving routine is never a good thing for me (again, sigh).

    Good luck everyone!

    5'6"
    188 lbs as of this morning
    No idea what my measurements are...I should check into that. :)

    I walked on my treadmill between 3.5-3.8 mph with just a .5% incline for 68 minutes this morning and did a total of 4 miles. I also did some stretching. I need to find a way (and time and energy) to incorporate strength training...

    This is going to be fun! I can always use extra incentive to keep on track! Thanks guys...err...gals!!! :flowerforyou:

    Thanks,

    As of this morning I was at 217lbs
    I am 5'6"
    Need to do the measurements just haven't found the time.

    This morning I rode the bike at the Gym for 10 mins.
    I did weights with my biceps and triceps 50 mins.

    Hope to be able to walk tonight.

    Thanks for the challenge. Good luck everyone

    Ok, so I tried to start a 'biggest loser' thing at work and it didn't get going... My current goal is to get to 160 pounds, which is 25 pounds away...

    HOWEVER, I could really stand to lose that extra 15 pounds to get me to 40... I was just trying to start small so I can feel like I'm making progress...

    Can I join in?

    Today is 185, (my highest ever was 203 - not counting during pregnancy)...
    I am 5'7"...
    No idea on measurements.. I honestly don't want to know :embarassed:

    don't know if I'll get around to exercising today, might try to take my twins for a bike ride tonight.. it's a great workout with an extra 60 pounds to pull behind me!

    Thanks for doing this!
