I am in! I am upping my goal to 420 or 60 crunches a day!

Bump!!

wiggleroom

I'm in! I think the breakfast challenge is great, since so many people skip it and it's so important not to! As for me ... I am a southern girl, so it's ingrained in me to "break the fast," and I wake up starving pretty much every morning! My real challenge is eating too many of my calories early in the day -- so I'll challenge myself to stay under 500 calories before lunch.

Thanks, loveme!

Count me in ! I seem to be hitting a plateau and could use some motivation. Thanks to Hessond for telling her friends about this.

I'm in!

Ohh, just as I was about to go get breakfast, I check the challenge. Fortunately, I'm on target! Eating breakfast on the days I work early in the morning is never a problem... it's those days that I don't work or work later that I tend to skip.

Ok, I'm not one who exercises but I'm desperate to do something for my tummy!! I checked out the program and got the app on my phone! I'm in!! My daughter is going to join me too!

therobinator

I'm in. Love your challenges.

Yay - I can do this one - laying on the floor doing crunches definitely won't hurt my knee:D Thank you and I look forward to participating once again!

Love this one although I certainly do not have a problem eating breakfast so it may be too easy haha

I already did abs at the gym before I saw this challenge so I'm guessing 40 (which is probably on the low side of what it actually was), I didn't really count today

I will give it a shot too. Breakfast is easy and my flabby
