    Can those of you unmotivated or feeling unsafe to run at night do it in the morning? It will give your metabolism a boost to start off your day.

    I'm currently trying to motivate myself to go to one of my least fav zumba instructors in 1.5 hrs. The challenge is getting my kids ready and on time, too.

    I'm aiming for 25lbs, but as long as I get over 14 I'll be happy.

    I can't fit in the gym before work as my partner takes the car in the morning and I wouldn't be back in time. Am swimming tonight which gets me out of the house and moving.

    I know I won't go to the gym by the time I get home so I decided I wanted to try something at home as well and was going back and forth between a few but think I have settled on Jillians 30 Day Shred - I've heard great things and am starting tonight. I'll keep you posted:smile:

    I've tried that, I really liked it. I just haven't got into a routine of it yet. Hope you get on well with it :)

    I'm up for this challenge if it's not too late! I would love to be in ONEderland by Christmas, but I'm going to be a little more realistic and say 15 lbs.

    Still getting the hang of this twitter thing, does anyone have a manual for it? :laugh: :laugh: I'll use your hashtag... I'm @TheRealLizagna

    I am not a morning person but it looks like I may not have a choice. I am going for a run today at 7:00pm with a friend. I am going to plan to run tomorrow morning at 7:15am after I drop my son off at school. My goal is to get myself up at 5am to run in the mornings by next week. My problem is that I am up late doing paperwork for work.

    I usually weigh myself on a Friday as it gives me time to recover from shoddy weekends lol. Anyone else have a weighing day preference?

    I used to weigh in on Fridays for the same reason BUT i used to celebrate weight loss a little too much throughout the weekend. So now I officially weigh in Thursday mornings. Its far enough away from the weekend that i can recover from bad choices but i don't get weekend cocky lol. I'll weigh in for this group though whenever everyone chooses.

    How about we all stick to our preferred days and just post in here on that day.

    I weighed in this morning and have maintained from last week which is a bonus considering Halloween hit. But it's only the 4th so I have plenty of time.

    I think the final weigh in should be Christmas Eve.

    Anyone else?
