    wow the group is really growing. I really hope everyone sticks around for the whole 4 weeks. this is a great team and you can gain a lot from it if you stick with it. We are all here for each other. even if you have a not so good week, don't let that stop you from coming on. We push to the end!

    Team Leela- thanks for being so welcoming!

    I love an active forum- ladies share what you're doing to lose that weight and meet your goals!

    I completed Day 3 of the 30 Day Slim Down- it was my second time ever doing JM's No More Trouble Zones and let me just say- wow! That was tough! I know it'll get easier with time but I really didn't think I could finish. I had to take a few breaks but I finished.

    I have it easier today- just Level 1 of the 30 DS. I did it before work this morning- I love getting my workouts in early. It motivates me to do another if I have time after work.

    Happy Thursday to all!

    I <3/hate JM :) She is very effective! I'm going to start 30DS back up on Friday. That will get me thru this challenge! :)

    I'm also going to kick the coffee habit during this challenge, and start eating a breakfast instead. I need to find something healthy that I can just grab and go.

    I just put an IceTea maker on my grocery list to help with the caffine addiction. Cut back without going cold turkey! I drink my iced tea plain, so that will be extremely low cal!

    o-malley-: great idea! I love plain iced tea as well. I think I'm going to have to add that to my grocery list! My husband just got me a Keurig (one cup coffee/tea) maker and so far I love it! Iced tea will be perfect! Nice low cal caffeine kick!

    I love/hate JM too. On the days when I do the shred I dislike her more because her facial expressions kill me! haha! I've gotten into the habit of putting my laptop next to the tv and working out (dvd in my laptop) while watching tv. So far so good!

    BeckyJill~ I wish one of the sound options on 30DS was, no music, no talking, just a little bell ding when its time to move on to the next thing. That way I could listen to my own music and not have to watch for changes.. its bad form to keep your neck turned to the TV! hahahaha

    hey i'm sorry but i posted the wrong start weight for myself, it should be 132 and realistically 121 is wayyyy out so how about 125! Would you mind amending the chart for me! Will update with new weight then on sunday!

    calela023~ You don't have to update everyday! :)

    lidunne~ I think I will have time to update the chart today sometime, I'll fix it.

    I have waaaay more coffee left than I thought! I'm going to take it to game night on Tuesday and leave it there! So, Tuesday is my last coffee day!!

    As an added incentive/ reward for knocking out coffee, I bought the 2 hour express white strips! I'm going to use them next week after I give away my coffee!
