People in their 20's wanna help challenge me? :)

Options
It's all in the title. I am a former 300+ member. Last summer though, I lost 100 pounds, and during a lil bulk during the holidays I gained 30 (oops, lol). Wanna drop back down to about 220 for a start. Looking for some people with the same goals to compete with. ;) Anyone wanna challenge me? :) lol

    4 months... lol, can't say I had the healthiest diet in the beginning... But half way through I really got into proper diet. This and my dedication to the gym, I conquered!

    ... Now I gotta do it again. Damn. lol

    Well, I gained it back for a few reasons... I was trying to bulk up a bit, muscle-wise. In addition to that it was the holidays, and I turned 21 shortly there after... Next year I'm going to approach things differently, that's for sure! lol

    Damn, I've heard insanity is just ridiculous. lol, my buddy is doing it and he absolutely dreads it... I'm not even gonna try, i couldn't get past the first day of p90x. The gym is just so much more familiar/comfortable to me. Good luck though! :)

    i have to lose 7 pounds, it's not much but you know how last few pounds is hardest to lose.... i'm already skinny and was NEVER anorexic, i refuse to eat less than 1300 kcal a day, and I love food.

    I'm with ya. I've got 112lbs to lose so I don't expect to lose all that in four months :P but I'm pretty dedicated though I don't "diet" I just practice portion control and work my butt off doing TurboFire and 30 Day Shred.

    I'm down about 40 pounds since I started late February but I bought a new scale so don't let the ticker fool you.

    ETA: My mini goal is entering the new year AT LEAST seeing a "1" on the scale rather than a "2".

    Hard breakup started it. Crash dieted for a while... halfway through though i began doin it right. always supplementing the gym into my life ever since high school.

    And thank you. :) Though I look better with a shirt on then off. I want that to change. lol

    Thank you! You're not doing too shabby yourself but the 30 day shred is a pretty decent workout. It's not much fun, IMHO, but it definitely gets your heart pumping. I suggest everyone look at TurboFire... sooo much fun!
