    Thanks for the chart ziesergirl!!!! :flowerforyou:

    I completed my girly push ups yesterday, and as I suspected, I have no upper body strength whatsoever. Oh well. My personal goal is to be able to do 40-50 girly push-ups (in one sitting) by next Wednesday.

    Hi,
    I need something to get me losing. I have been at a plateau since the summer, all due to me eating too much. I workout regularly but have food issues. I am picking up a book today on carb cycling and I hope that will work for me. 1200-1500 calories per day leaves me hungry all the time, eating back my calories causes cravings and no weightloss. I have to figure this out.

    I did my 20 girly push ups today! I also burned around 1200 calories with cardio and did my 50 squats and 120 crunches.
    However I was terrible about my water. I think I only drank 48 oz for the day.

    I didn't do well today at all! We are snowed in here in CT. We have at least 6 inches of snow already and it is supposed to go until tomorrow morning. I had bought a bag of Ruffles and some dip and was supposed to bring it to a party tomorrow, but guess what I ended up opening tonight?

    So even with a burn of 1000 calories I still was over in calories by 52 cals.

    Checking in did my 20 push-ups today was bad and didn't get them in yesterday
  • Ziesergirl, the chart is amazing!!! It's so great to be able to see everyone all in one place, including myself. :happy:

    And in regards to the push-ups: I did 6 the other night, (the girly kind) and tried to do more today. Couldn't even do one. Was still sore from the day before. :ohwell: I had no idea my upper body strength was that bad. And it surprises me because I do a lot of lifting in my job. Will try to do more. But have also been doing a lot of walking/jogging and my legs are so sore!! lol. I'm terrible. But I guess I have to start somewhere. :wink:

    Thanks for all the encouragement everyone!!! And everyone is doing an awesome possum job!!!

    I signed up for this, but then disappeared and have only just found the time to read through all the posts. This week was a total write off, and because I was away on my weigh-day (Weds) I haven't even weighed in. Will do so next week, and will start doing the push-ups tomorrow - I'll see how many I manage tomorrow (girly type) then try to add one or two per day.

    Lots of brilliant weight-losses - great going everyone.
  • Just checking in! I ate terribly this weekend but drank all my water and got in a good bit of exercise! I did 20 girly push-ups yesterday and 40 today!!! Stay focused and keep up the hard work everyone!

    I would like to join! I haven't done any challenges before on MFP, so I'm looking forward to it.

    SW: 179
    GW by Christmas: 169

    Can anyone bring me up to date on the pushups/water? I know it's a mini-goal, just not sure how many of each to do.

    Thanks!
    Meg
