    My personal challenge is to switch up my workouts to get out of this weight loss stall. So, I'm going to do the Biggest loser, Chalean extreme, yoga, and turbo jam.

    WOW He we are two days in!! I'm already loving it!! I added JM 30DS to my workouts to make sure I got to 60min of exercise per day. I'm sucking down a min of 64oz. of water. My personal challenge is to keep up the momentum and make each day better than the last! This challenge takes me beyond my two JM workout DVD's as well as Chalene Extreme so I'll be starting a couple of new things at the tail end of this challenge.

    My major struggle? Push ups OMG I've been doing a few but JM has you do them in circuits and wow!! I get a few on my toes and then gotta go down to my knees to keep it up. I know I pushed hard today that I did yesterday and tomorrow will be even tougher. I can already feel soreness in my biceps. I LOVE IT!!

    I want to stay on plan and on target, I'd love to blow my nutritionist out of the water because I stayed on plan and worked my butt off!! How are you guys doing so far?

    I can feel your enthusiasm through this post! Way to work things in to reach your goals and Honey you aren't the only one that has to go on the knees during pushups. You start on your knees and then try 5 regular and the rest on the knees each circuit. Then do 7 regular and the rest on the knees. You'll slowly build yourself up to it! Keep up the hard work! You're doing great!

    Good morning Ladies,

    I can’t figure out how to attach my logo!

    Just wishing everyone a beautiful day and trust we will ALL meet our goals for the day.

    My personal goal is 60mins of exercise all at once and to watch my sugar intake.

    Stay blessed!

    GM Shades of Brown Divas!!! How is EVERYONE doing so far?? Well I can actually say I been putting in WORK!! I am sooooooooo not a morning person but I got up at 630 this morning to do JIllian Michael workout week1. NOTE: I usually workout when I get off which is 530 but since I gotta get my hair did this evening I went on and got up this morn and sweated for 20 mins. I feel so good. I think I am going to start doing that maybe 3 times out the week and other days in the evenings. Hope you all have a wonderful day!!!

    It's not suicide, it's going to take hard work and dedication and you can do it. But becareful not to burn yourself out. Rest days are as important and work out days.

    Hello Everyone,

    I have been on the site for about a week and jumped into the first relevant group that I could. I believe that this group is going to be awesome and look forward to working it out with everyone :-)

    My personal goal this week is to drink at least 6 glasses of water per day (minimm). This is a big stretch for me because I usually drink tea and juice all day---hardly any water (and if I do, it's normally flavored).
