    Hello everyone,

    My name is Kathy and this is my first challenge. I just started Jillian Michael's Body Revolution. I think this challenge will help keep me motivated to get my 6 days of exercise in with Jillian. I'm ready to give this a try. Let's do this!

    Hello; my name is Martha. The challenge to lose 4% of my current weight means losing 10 lbs. I won't say this is easy because any amount of weight to lose can be difficult; however, I know I will succeed. Since October of 2011 to the very day, I have lost 30 lbs. I didn't change my eating habit until February of 2012 and I'm so glad I did. Changing my eating habits has helped in my weight lose. In previous months getting motivated to exercise has been my problem. Within the last two weeks I have started yoga for 17 mins 4 days a week, pilates 10 mins 4 days a week. My desire is to walk and eventually jog on my treadmill for at least 15 mins 3 days a week. Being motivated to do this is my greatest hindrance.

    HI! My name is Melissa and I would like to lose 4% as well. By the end of October I'm going to have six-pack abs so this challenge will be a great motivation to keep up with my goal. I weigh 136 lbs, so my goal is to lose 5.4 pounds by the end of July!

    Hello! Losing 4% means that I will have to knock off 5.84 pounds...so 6-pounds in July. That should be doable!! So, come on weight loss!! :laugh:

    This is fun! I've never joined a group before, so I'm excited - 1st group, 1st challenge! My starting weight for this challenge (as of this morning) is 153.8. 4% for me is 6.1 pounds. If I lose that I will only be 2 pounds away from my goal weight of 145! This will be a great motivation! I, too, have vacation planned in August and this will be an awesome way to start it off! Thanks for putting this together!

    Ok...I am in. I set up this site over a year ago but my sister just started it so it's motivation for me to kick her azz! I will see what the scale says in the morning and start from there. Or does this start on Sunday? I hope this will be the start I need since every time I have started a weight loss program in the past - I do well in the beginning...get confident (AKA lazy)...gain it back and then some!
    I am at my highest weight ever in my life and am hating it. Seriously.
    See ya'll tomorrow.

    I have to lose 3,4 kg and if I got it right it makes about 7,4 lbs... (Yeah, I'm not so familiar with that unit.)
    Good luck for you all.
