Jillian Michaels Challenge INTRO - CLOSED GROUP

newtswifey07

Good afternoon everyone! Thanks for joining the Jillian MIchaels Challenge Group for July! I'm so excited about getting this up and going!


GROUPS

I have divided everyone into groups - my original plan was to put everyone who is doing the same video together but we have a HUGE number of people doing "The 30 Day Shred" and very little doing anything else. Which is amazing because the shred is an awesome program.

You're groups are below!









*****If you see "???" by your name in any column, I did not get that information from you! Please post, or message me with ti! *************
Now, I know the names aren't amazing so part of our first weekly challenge will be to create new names! But there will be more information about that in Tuesday's thread. Be sure to add your teammates as friends to keep in touch, keep motivated and keep accountable!


Getting Started

Tomorrow is the first day of our challenge! Be sure to weigh yourself, take measurements and "before" pictures to accurately measure your success and inspire others! Don't worry - you don't have to post your measurements or before pics if you don't want to, but they are great to have for yourself to show the changes that your body is going through!

How This Whole Thing Works

Every Tuesday I will start a new thread ( Titled "Jillian Michaels Challenge WK1 - CLOSED GROUP" etc. ). These will have the updated Success Charts, Winning Team, JM quote for the week and weekly challenge. This will be the thread for the entire week (Tues - Mon) - use it to post motivational notes, track progress, check in with daily exercise and weigh in.

Monday's are the official weigh in days!

Please let me know on Monday so that I can prepare the chart for Tuesday. I have everyone's information on our current charts, however if you have lost more weight and would like to update it please message me and I'll fix it for Tuesday!

Every week there will be a group winner and individual winner. The winners will receive a badge to display on blogs etc. Winner's will be calculated by total % of weight loss.

I think thats everything.... any questions just post!

Giraffe33991

Thanks for organizing this and motivating all of us to sign up! Good luck everyone but........

LET'S GO TEAM GREEN!!!

Prettyme924

I think doin the 30 ds we may lose inches instead of lbs

horizonsp

You have put in a lot of effort to do this fantastic job.Thanks a lot.

savvynurse

Awesome job!! So do we start the DVDs on Monday or do we wait until the 1st to actually start?

Go GREEN!!

And yes I think we will loose inches more so than lbs with the shred

newtswifey07

I agree - how does everyone feel about about tracking inches lost?

Vanessa414

Hmm.. i don't measure... but i do have some old measurments i could go by that wouldnt be too far off... If that's what everyone else wants to do i'm okay with that, but i'd personally rather do lbs

JennieAL

I'm in agreement with most about inches. Pounds lost shouldn't be more than 8 per person, from what I've read. We're going to be adding on muscle in a good way, hopefully. So I think inches will be the dramatic variable. But you're already tracking our measurements, right? We're supposed to weigh, measure and take pics...

rosemiller11

I think inches would be a great idea as well...
Go Team Green!

Prettyme924

I think we should do inches and lbs...I honestly don't care if I don't lose a lbs as long as I lose inches...inches is really what matter ..weight can jus be water weight that don't make a difference

sgv0918

I am weighing in at 194 now, not 192. I guess my goal is 15lbs. This is gonna be fun!!

molyowsk
