    You can really burn a lot of calories doing it.

    This is what I need. I need to get Team Abnehmen numbers up for the weekend challenges too so we can trash talk the other two teams. LOL

    so far today: 1 hour walking leisurely in the park, 25 minutes of 30 day shred, now off to do my tri-cep dips and kickbacks

    Need to see a downward trend on my scale, I know slow and steady wins the race but this is ridiculous

    did 25 tricep extensions per arm and 50 tricep dips


    also so happy to report that I lost 0.5 inches from hips and 1 inch from waist so even though the scale is moving slowly, I am getting results

    its kind of funny because it doesnt LITERALLY mean weight loss. the best translation is "taking off"

    I took german my last semster of college. But I'm Irish Canadian so I might have been hung over alot during that class. Translating german is a pain sometimes.

    I have a thought. I know, doesn't happen often, ecpecially on Friday :)

    What would people think if we created a weekly team challenge winner badge that the members of the winning team for the week can post on their signiture. It would be kind of like a traveling trophy.

    I would be willing to make one but I have no clue how. If there are instructions someone could point me to I could work on it.

    Hello! I'm new here and have joined Team Thin It to Win It as of... about ten minutes ago. My name is Gwynne, I'm 32 and the mother of a wonderful little three year old moochie. I can be a bit... competitive, which hopefully won't be a bad thing. :)

    I'll shoot for the 50 pounds, just to see what happens, but if I start to look to scary I may lower it. I don't want to be a skeleton, even though that evil BMI thing says I should be in the 140s. As of this morning I was 199.4, so I think I'll be comfy with 50 down. Eep! So excited to be part of something long term!

    Hi I'm Naomi. I'm new to Team Abnehmen. I'm 26 and just graduated with my bachelor's and will be starting grad school at the end of this month. I am currently sitting at 197.4 and would like to be at 140 so I want to lose about 60lbs. I am VERY competitive so this will be fun! I can't wait to get to know everyone so send me friend requests and we will get to our goals together.
