Labor Day Challenge

Options
Howdy All...

Labor Day is 13 weeks from today. I just wanted to see if anyone was interested in doing a challenge between now and then??? I want to lose 30 lbs before then. I know there are a lot of challenges going, but I thought a longer term one would keep me more on track....anyone else interested in losing 30lbs by Labor Day??

    Yeah! :drinker: I'm glad I suggested it!!
    As far as daily goals go....for me, I try to get a gallon of water a day, and its going to be my goal to FINALLY stick to my daily calories...I'll do good for 3 days, and then I slip up...so I'm going to try to stick with it for the long haul...:bigsmile: I do Turbo Jam, so I'm going to make a goal of doing that 5 times a week.
    Doitforbaby, I'm going to check out that 100push up thing. I've seen the thread, but never looked into it. Thanks!!

    My ultimate goal is to be under 150lbs, so if I make this goal of hitting 159.5 by Labor Day, then I'm gonna be GOLDEN! :tongue:

    I think this is a GREAT suggestion...some people can't run...so maybe working out 4 at least days a week. Maybe we can put smiles by the weeks, one smiles for each workout. Thoughts??

    that sounds great, having that little goal to meet every week should help the long term goal.

    So I got up and worked out this morning...it was pretty hard, cause I don't sleep well. But my hubby made me get out of bed (which I asked him to do) and I did 35 min of Turbo Jam! Woot Woot...now I'm going to have a hard time eating enough calories considering I brought fruit and salad to work today...lol.
