Happy Thursday everyone!! Almost Friday!!

Ok, so I know I mentioned in one of my earlier posts about making a chart. We are currently up to 110+ people. About 30 or so have posted weights, and quite a few are continuing to join. I have no problem with that...I want this to remain open. However, I am going to only add those people to the actual posted chart that have checked in. I know everyone has busy lives, not always available to post...so I will allow this weeks current weigh in's thru Friday. IF you post after that, it will be on the following weeks chart. The chart is going to show starting & goal weights. It will also have our weekly weights (Wednesday's) for 9 weeks....of course with our names.

Hope this is ok with ya all!

Kind with me! I think I'm going to try 30 a day!

mom2lyla

I'm scared of this push up thing, LOL! I'm going to try for the 30 today but we'll see what happens. So far I've had 20 oz of water and still counting! That is one thing I can certainly stick to. I'm also going to try to start Turbo Jam tonight for the first time. How is everyone else doing today?

Thanks for getting us all together here. :flowerforyou: I've really been motivated by this board!

I did 10 push ups as soon as I got out of bed this morning. After, I could barely lift my arms to wash my hair in the shower LOL

Off to fill my water bottle.

Happy Thursday everyone!

Can I still join?

My name is Kori. I started MFP back in December 2010. I lost 50 pounds very quickly by April 2011. I have since maintained that wait, but have been doing through a very ugly divorce since April, so I haven't been losing. I need to get back on track and start losing again! So here I am joining a challenge to keep me motivated and accountable.

**Edited to change my goal weight.

I just read back through and found this week's challenge. I am wanting to start JM 30Day Shred tonight, so I will get my push ups in that way. I am going to aim for 30 a day to start out with. The girly kind! :-)

ewhitehurst1

I'm excited to start the push-up challenge! I think I will shoot for 30 a night. I carry a 2 year old around all the time so I'm hoping that has built up my arm muscles! We shall see! Good luck everyone!

I must say I love the group and all the motivation!

Frankeegee

Hi!! I missed he first challenge but I'm working on my water intake and will be doing 20 Girl Push-ups a day.

I've been having trouble staying consistent with my diet and exercise, but have been keeping pretty accurate and regular with recording my diet in my diary. So I started this challenge group at

saphfireangel

I'm going to start out with the girly push ups doing 20 of them a day but I want to be able to do 10 of the real pushups before the end of the week will see how it goes there.

I'm from east-central Iowa. Will be about a 4-5 hr drive, one way. Hope to be on the road by 6:30am!! Don't know if I'm taking my laptop or not. If I do, will try to check in real quick each day!

Hey all,
I didn't post my weight yesterday so here it is
137.5

My goal weight is
130

Today I have burned 800 calories so far on my stationary bike, and also done 120 crunches and 50 squats. I will do the push ups tonight with my nightly workout. I have issues with my wrists so I'm not sure how many I can do. I will say 20 to start.:happy:

kit_katty

I'm in!

Current weight: 150
Goal weight: 140

Don't know if I'll make it but I'm going to try! Honestly I'd be happy with half that... lol.

Plan: Keep running, don't eat all the burned calories. Start with a few weights and pushups and crunches.

Hi everyone just done my 100 girly pushups.

artgalchitown

Today's weight - 161.4. I didn't lose anything I think I need some help...

hey, it's ok. Are you logging all food that you eat? drinking enough water? getting some good sleep? it could be A LOT of things. wt loss requires a TON of patience!! seriously!! and like I said above, make sure you are eating the recommended calories given to you. eating too few will only harm your efforts. keep at it, the scale will move!!

artgalchitown

Hmm I just posted a blank quote post, so sorry. Still learning how to use the forums. Thank you for your words of encouragement. ziesergirl. I usually do pretty well with eating and logging during the day but then it kind of goes downhill when I get home at night and that is probably why the scale isn't moving. Does anyone else have this issue? I try to eat healthy but I think I am eating too much at night.

kleeper80

I have a lot of trouble with night time snacking. I feel like I just can't get satisified or something. I am really trying to work on it! :-) I'm not help to you, I just wanted to let you know that you aren't alone!

Thanks - I am really struggling with it! I think I also eat too much at dinner - not so great with the portion sizes for recipes that I make up. I'll let you know if I come up with anything that helps. Sometimes I nibble on frozen grapes and that works to an extent.
