in Motivation and Support
Weigh and measure ins are every Monday starting today.

Here is the spread sheet. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AvQDbMtESxM-dHRUVWgzYXVkR1JDTjZYU2V1ZklVS0E&hl=en_US


The measurements you need to take are your weight, inches around the bust, waist at the belly button, and hips. It's best to get your weight first thing in the morning after bathroom business is done. Measurements can be done anytime except right after a meal.

The only prizes here are a hot body, health, confidence and pride. If you cheat, you're only cheating yourself.

Any questions can be asked here or to my inbox and I will answer the best I can.

    There used to a thread called Brides on a Mission. Tons of people were involved with it. Yuu might want to do a search for it if you want even more support.:-)

    It's great to see the original measurements from the first challenge juxtaposed to this first week's measurements. It makes me feel pretty good.

    I saw that right after I made started this challenge. It's a different approach that I like but I tend to get addicted to message boards and won't work out if I join too many groups. lol.

    I encourage everyone to do as many challenges as you can handle. Get as much support as you can. This isn't easy and can be not fun, but together, we make it fun.

    I can't get the spreadsheet to work from the work computer. It times out before it reaches my name. I'll try to log everything tonight when I get home.

    I will post my measurements tonight, since I got home from my Labor day weekend shenanigans at 12:30am last night. (And now, I'm at work.:grumble: ) Hope everyone's weekend was fabulous!

    On a non-measurement related note, I spent my weekend down with my future in-laws. They live about 4 hours away from us, and I had to break the news to them that our wedding will not be down there, but closer to where we live (and where our friends and my family all live). It's almost unheard of for people from their town to get married somewhere else, so I was expecting some disapproval. Luckily, they all understood (except for one nosy aunt, but I was fully expecting someone to object). Now, I feel so much better with their blessing!

    I live 5.5hrs away from where I'm getting married, so the ppl from my side (all 11 of us) are having to travel the journey, and are staying 2 nights at a B&B, whilst OH's friends and family are having to travel 2.5 hrs to get there, only doing it this way, a) theres more of them on his side than mine, b) his lot wont travel down.
    Which also means, that I have to travel the 5.5hrs journey quite a few times to arrange things,

    I had really wanted to get married about 3 hours away from where my and my fiance's family live. His family made a HUGE stink about it. My family is always super supportive and they were excited. I seriously had a breakdown about it all and considered eloping! Luckily, the other place I went to see (about 30 minutes away) was absolutely PERFECT. Problem solved, but I'm still kind of annoyed by his family. I'm glad things worked out Rogiefreida!

    No, get them done asap or you won't have a week 1 to compare to. A day late or a day early isn't going to hurt anyone.
