    WHO WANTS TO BE A HOT MOM? - GROUP RESULTS, Week 7 (9/5)

    Hello, Hot Moms!! Check out the weekly stats below.

    RtiTg.png

    Here's a quick summary of the past 7 weeks.

    PC8ns.png

    After 7 weeks, we have a solid number of moms checking in.

    Did any of you realize that we crossed the quarter mark on August 29th? We are more than 25% through this challenge!! The time is flying fast! In order to reach our goal weights, we need to remember that EVERY DAY counts. Right now, there are 115 days left in this challenge. Let’s keep moving and losing!

    Next week, on our 8-week mark, I’ll run another individual assessment to see how many members are on track to reach their December 31st goal weights.

    Have a great week, Hot Moms!!

    sorry the chart is so late this week. With it being a 3 day weekend I was extremely busy then yesterday my daughter and grandbaby came up to visit and go shopping and the girls had gymnastics. So I have been busy the last 4 days. Today it feels good not to have anything planned. Well except exercising and good eating LOL.

    CONGRATS to all the losers this week. WE ROCK. This is an awesome team. We all check in almost everyweek, we are losing and we are doing great with our miles. Have a good , healthy, active week.......and dont forget to check in on friday with our weight ins.......

    Weighed in this morning at 168.2, a half pound down since last week. This feels like it is going REALLY SLOWLY for me! I am halfway through Jillian's Ripped in 30 DVD, and it is HARD! I am building muscle, so that's good, but I wish some of this fat would go away!

    How are you all doing?

    It looks like several people had rough days this week. The important thing is to just get back ontrack. We all have off days, but whether we just give in the towel or get back ontrack determines whether we continue to lose weight or put back on part of what we lost. WE CAN DO THIS.......

    Good Morning Ladies
    I am feeling quite a bit better this morning. I went for a long walk along the river this morning with the puppy. It was so pretty. The puppy had fun chasing the birds. He had never paid attention to birds before and seemed amazed that he could make them fly away LOL. How about if everyone shares a favorite recipe this week. I love to try new recipes.

    here is a great recipe. YUM. I love it

    Sesame Beef Lettuce Wraps:
    Adapted recipe and photos by For the Love of Cooking.net
    Original recipe by Under the High Chair

    Marinade:
    2 cloves of garlic, minced
    1 tsp sugar
    2 tbsp soy sauce
    1 tbsp sesame oil
    1/4 tsp ground ginger
    1 tsp rice vinegar
    1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
    Freshly cracked pepper, to taste
    1 lb flank steak, cut against grain into thin slices

    Combine all of the marinade ingredients together in a bowl then mix well. Slice the steak, against the grain, into thin strips. Place the steak into the marinade and mix until the meat is evenly coated. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for 1-3 hours.

    Korean Barbecue Dipping Sauce:
    2 cloves of garlic, minced
    1/2 tsp sugar
    3 tbsp soy sauce
    1 tbsp rice vinegar
    1/2 tsp sriracha chile sauce (more if you want it spicy)
    1 tsp sesame oil
    1 tbsp green onion
    1/2 tbsp sesame seeds
    1 tbsp water

    Combine all ingredients together and mix well. Set aside to let the flavors mingle.


    Other ingredients:
    Butter lettuce leaves
    Shredded carrot
    Green onion, chopped
    Brown rice, cooked per instructions

    Cook the rice per instructions. Once the rice is cooked it's time to cook the beef.

    Heat 1/2 tbsp of canola oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Once the pan is HOT add half of the beef and cook for 1-2 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from heat and put into a serving dish. Coat the skillet with another 1/2 tbsp of canola oil and add the remaining beef once the pan is HOT again. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until lightly browned.


    For serving, place a bit of rice in a lettuce leaf followed by beef, carrots, and green onions. Drizzle a bit of the dipping sauce on top then fold and eat. Make sure you have plenty of napkins on hand because these are messy. Enjoy.

    Right now I love the yellow tomatoes. Cut them up with a little salt and it's sooo good!
    Also love the ranch mini rice cakes, I am a salt person!
    For chocolate fixes I like just plain old chocolate chips, I think you can have 17 for for about 80 calories

    WHO WANTS TO BE A HOT MOM? - GROUP RESULTS, Week 8 (9/12)

    Hello, Hot Moms!! Check out the weekly stats below.

    DUUxk.png

    Here's a quick summary of the past 8 weeks.

    Dw320.png

    Holy crap. Did we just collectively lose only 5.9 lbs this week?! 39 members weighing in, and only 5.9 lbs?! Time for a progress report!!

    Below, you will find our latest progress chart. I’ve calculated everyone’s “% to GW.” As of today, if you want to reach your goal weight, you will need to have a 34% or higher. To make it even more fun, I calculated your estimated weight loss by 12/31 and also your estimated weight on 12/31. These calculations are based on your total weight loss for the past 8 weeks, and I think you’ll find them very interesting.

    jLuB8.png

    CONGRATS to everyone in the green! Let’s take a moment to recognize the members who are already over half-way to their GW’s:
    :flowerforyou: LPC020409 in Group 4
    :flowerforyou: Cherilea in Group 7
    :flowerforyou: MacksMama in Group 8
    :flowerforyou: Swimmom2 in Group 9
    :flowerforyou: And rkeaton360 in Group 10
    You ladies rock!! Thanks for showing us how it’s done!

    :ohwell: [SIGH]...I’m still in the white group. But I’m SO CLOSE to getting in the yellow group! I’m tempted to change my 12/31 goal weight, but according to my favorite iPod app, “Target WEIGHT for Adults,” if I continue to lose weight at the same rate I lost for the past 2 weeks, I will reach by goal weight by 12/18/2011. There’s still hope for me! So….my GW stays the same for now. I’ll see what the next 4-week progress report says.

    FYI - The next progress report will be posted the week of October 10, just DAYS after our half-way mark. It’s time to kick our weight loss in to high gear!

    Have a great week, Hot Moms!!

    Good morning ladies! Iam doing my check in today because my vacation time starts tomorrow, and I won't be back until Saturday the 24th. We are Hawaii bound for a whole week!!! My weight this week is 162 even, and my miles are 10. I included the 5k that I will be doing while on vacation in those miles this week since it is on Sunday. Here's to hoping I don't go to far off track on vacation, and gain a crap ton of weight!

    My favorite low cal snacks are:

    Fiber One 90 calorie brownie bars
    Red seedless grapes
    Baybel light cheese
    Horizon Organic string cheese
    Our everyday 365 fruit leathers
    Archer Farms Organic fruit strips
    Blackberry, Strawberry, and Rasberry fruit parfait with dannon light and fit vanilla yogurt
    the 60 calorie pudding by Jello
