    Bumping, although while I'm shifting my diet yet again, I think I'm going to stay in maintain mode around 135. I hope I can still stay with you guys. I need Y'ALL!!! Weigh in right around the corner.

    Put the past behind you ladies. Let's work our tushies off today and come in strong tomorrow and keep the momentum going through the rest of the week...even (dare of I say it) into the weekend.

    i am widdling down the gain from this challenge. hope by the end i am at least at the starting point. i do really bad until just days before and than i begin good days. so maybe with this whole week of good days it will come off by next week. in fact i know it will.

    claire...you are still in the negitive. that's great.

    good luck everyone. off to try running outside today. such a difference than the treadmill. see how the legs do. they are telling me that i have been working them. i changed up my exercise. i haven't been doing gym work, just the zumba. so i have cut back on the zumba and more gym work. i will do zumba one night a week now.

    later

    Well...I am up another 1/2 pound! UGH! Oh well...I really think my body needs some changes. I'm really thinking about starting to focus more on inches rather than weight...it's getting very frustrating when that darn scale keeps rising! Maybe next challenge will be inches rather than weight. I don't know...just a thought...

    Oh well. Been doing good. Had a great workout last night. Long walk and then strength workout! Tonight is Yoga and maybe a run (although it's raining, so we'll see...).

    Have a great day!

    kisten.....we could do inches for bust, waist, hips. since those are the main 3 areas. good idea........now how would we set up the list? hummmm, have to think on that one.

    Morning ladies! Hope everyone had a great weekend! I was away at a family reunion and I ate what is probably a weeks worth of calories in 3 days. :( I'm going to have to weigh in tomorrow, as I got back this morning, but went directly to work. I want to make sure I weigh in on my scale to be accurate (an minimize the weight gain as much as possible). Wish me luck....

    I think that doing measurements for the next challenge is a great idea. Not sure if I missed a discussion on this, but I'm in (although I have no idea what a reasonable loss would be for a 6 week time frame).

    Hope everyone has a great day!

    Well, gain again but still down overall. GAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!

    I need to run W3D1 today. I wanted to get up and do it this morning but I had some wicked insomnia last night. Its so weird and sudden for me. Oh well, tonight it will have to happen!

    Cathy- isnt the running outside so much more challenging??? I did W2D3 this last Sunday while at the beach and let me tell you...It was so much better.

    I like the inches thing alot. I think it would be fun. And a challenge of some sort......hmmm.

    yes amy running outside is SO different than treadmill. to me treadmill is really easy. outside sure isn't. but, i enjoyed it. hope the weather says cooler so i can do it again. otherwise the asthma says different running in the humid hot morning.

    i got a name for the next challege.

    Sixers INCHING down.

    need list sugguestins. this could really shake things up. and remotivate us all.

    Cathy...I like the name!! I'll do some brainstorming and think of how we could post things. And ideas from you ladies would be great! We could have two lists...one for those who want to still do weight, and one for those doing inches, People could be on one or both lists, depending on their goals. Just a thought...

    Cathy - I love your new pic. I went through to look at your others, and WOW what a wonderful difference 50 lb can make. You are doing absolutely awesome. Keep it up lady!

    I like the Sixers Inching Down name too.

    Kristin, I like your idea of 2 lists for people to be on one or both. As someone who has just gotten back into the weight loss (for the hundredth time), I'd like to still keep up with my weight. But I sure do want to see those inches decrease too! :smile:

    lula....that pic was taken 30#s lighter ago. it was thanksgiving. i thought it would inspire me.

    list suggestions

    name......SW 00.0 / CW 00.0 / Bust 00 / waist 00 / hips 00 / weight loss 00.0 / inches lost 00
  • kistinbee
    kistinbee Posts: 3,688 Member
    Yeah, or if we had two lists:

    Weight loss
    name...SW/GW/CW/lost


    Measurement
    name...Bust S/C...Waist S/C...Hips S/C...Total inches S/C (S=start, C=current)
  • kistinbee
    kistinbee Posts: 3,688 Member
    And here's a link we could use for measuring. http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/how-to-get-your-body-measurements.html

    I'm actually thinking I want to take more measurements...biceps, thighs/etc. Maybe the measurement list could look like this:

    name...chest s/c...waist s/c...hips s/c...thigh s/c...upper arm s/c...total inches s/c...total lost

    and then we could just keep the weight loss list the same. That way people can continue normally and/or join in on the measurement list as well.
  • kistinbee
    kistinbee Posts: 3,688 Member
    OK...so my link doesn't work. You'll have to copy and paste the address.
  • chipper15173

    sounds like a plan:

    two lists and the measurements......can't wait now.
