current weight = 64.1kg
end of august weight = 61.5kg
overall goal weight = 58kg

breezad

no problems aimee!!!! anything for you hun.

i hope we all reach our goals. dont worry about converting we all get the differnece in lb and kgs

welcome newies. its good to see new faces from last month, hope the oldies come back too
3kg as a minimum fastbelly, so by all means exceed that would be fantastic!!

last month, we liked to share exercise and diet tips that are working for us, and we also tried to do a AM workout and a PM workout.
these dont have to be sweaty intense workouts but it helps keep the bosy burning all day long.

so i am planning once im better to exercise, to do a AM workout of either walking, or 30d shred only about 20min-30min workout
then a PM workout of either bodyrock workout 12-20min or a jog around the block about 20-30min or 3-5km

goodluck everyone

Oh goodness, it's been a long time since I've done a morning workout. :laugh: But might as well start the month of right! I'm going to get up at 7:45am and get a walk and/or run in first thing.

Goal for end of august: 56.2kg

If I lose 3kg this month then I will be only 0.2kg off my mini goal.

There is a new rule at my gym where you can only use the tredmil for 30 minutes at a time so I'm going to have to brave the cold and get up early to run outside somedays. I'm going to try get up for a run tomorrow morning.

I hope you feel better soon Bree. Good Luck everyone! we can do this

Okay, so time to share what I did yesterday it was so AWESOME!!! :bigsmile:
I finally allowed myself the gift of buying some really lovely underwear :blushing:
I don't how other ladies feel but this was one of the first 'gifts' I was going to give myself after reaching a mini goal.
Well it had to take a back seat last month due to illness, bad news, huge work load and I totally forgot about it until my bra broke yesterday :laugh: So I bought 3 of the prettiest ones I could find (thank goodness for store sales). Funny thing is I've been pushing myself so hard to loose weight and stop being that fat person, I didn't realise until this morning that I'm only 19kg 'ish' away from my goal weight, it still seems a lot to me but on the other hand wow!
So here's to all of you and everything we may all achieve, come on August 31, have I got a weight loss goal for you :drinker:

On a different note: Does anyone know how to deal with stretch marks or saggy skin? Two big babies and weight gain certainly did some damage, I can feel the toning underneath but the skin kinda hangs...not cool at all.:grumble:
Still, the new underwear is nice

Bree hope you get better real soon and are fighting fit for August :flowerforyou:

Reached a big milestone (for me) yesterday! I ran 30 minutes straight outdoors. I can run longer on the treadmill, but always found it very hard to run any sort of distance outdoors. So I'm really proud I've hit the 30 minute milestone! Next goal is 40 mins, which I hope I can build up to within the next week. I feel like after 20 minutes, it's all mental!

Way to go what a great milestone, congratulations. :bigsmile:
I'm in a bit of a dilemma in regards to running, I really want to give it a go but my doctor says no because I've been told I have osteoarthritis.
Sooo I'm wondering if a) I can b) I should or c) I just keep walking but for longer distances :laugh:
Oh the choices the choices

I usually say ALWAYS listen to your doctor, but sometimes a second opinion is needed. I'd see another doctor for another opinion. I've actually read some articles that OA is actually improved with exercises like running. I wonder if a sports doctor would know if this is true?

WOW 19KG away!!!! thats sooooo good and from where you started amamzing!!!!!!! soooo very proud of you
congrats!!!!
i would say add longer distances if time permits, why not?? how far are you walking daily now???

YYYAAAAAYYYYY aimee!!!!!!!
thats is the BEST milestone ever causeits a fitness one!!! you arent worried about the scales or measure its all about your physical ability!!!!!
sooo very true about the mental part. it gets you but once you push through it its amazing where your legs can take you...
how far are you getting in 30min do you know???
congrats super job!!!

Seajolly

Not going very far yet. Trying to build up on time first, then will build up on speed. I did a little over 2 miles in 30 mins the other day. Next time I run I'm going to try to go farther in that same amount of time. I'm hesitant to push myself too far too fast because I don't want to risk shin splints again or another injury!

bethly

WoohWooh! Nice work everyone!

I'm just happy that I've been able to really get myself a little sweaty on my rides home from work. Trying to take the longer way and keep myself at about 23-25kph. So far so good!

breezad

fantastic work everyone!!!

miss84

OK im in again!!! I joined the last challenge, but only lost around 1-1.5kg.... better than nothing I guess!!!
If I can get myself to 55kg by spring I will be over the moon!!!!!
With the weather finally improving here, its a good motivator to get outdoors and get some miles in my legs!
My 2 main issues with food are - being bored at work and looking for sweet food like biscuits, and also after work, and on the weekends, my problem is alcohol!!! I cant go with out... so im going to try to start on lower calorie drinks like vodka and lime etc...

Good Luck everyone!!!
Weigh in today - 57.4kg
Goal - 55kg
