The SSS Challenge - 15 pounds in 6 weeks

Options
SSS = Sexy and Slim Summer Challenge

Can you relate to being like me last summer and saying “by next summer I am going to be in shape!” but here we are and it is next summer and I am fatter than ever. It’s not too late people. We have a lot of summer left. Let’s lose some major lbs over the next few weeks. I need motivation in a big way and I think support and accountability will help so I thought I would start this challenge.

I have a trip to Hawaii coming up and I would love to be down 15 pounds. I want to wear a bikini and leave the cover up back at the hotel.

Here are the details:

The Goal: To lose 15 pounds in 6 weeks
Start date: Monday, July 16th
End date: Monday, August 27th

Weight in days are……you guessed it…....Monday!

I will create our progress posts on Mondays so look for the SSS Challenge.

1st week weight:
2nd week weight:
3rd week weight:
4th week weight:
5th week weight:
6th week weight:

Total Weight lost:

We can do this. We are rock stars. We will be sexy and slim THIS summer. Good luck and see you on Monday!

    I'm with you! I'm going to try for 12 pounds if that's ok. I want to start lifting and this might actually get me to the gym. Starting weight: 191. See you Monday!

    What's everyone going to do for a workout tomorrow? I'm going to run on the treadmill at the gym. I'll also make sure I do some good old military push-ups and sit-ups. Who's with me?

    Tomorrow's workout is going to be getting on the treadmill early in the a.m. before a day of shopping :-)
    Not going to buy any clothes until I'm down another size - which I will be in 6 weeks!!!

    Count me in! Today's weight is 185. Working out is just walking/slow jogging daily, with a little bit of Tae Bo thrown in when I remember to do it. (Maybe 1-2x week)

    Count me in! I had a 15 lb loss from June 1st till now, so I'd *love* to be able to hit that again. I do have a beach vacation in 2 weeks so I'll need to weigh-in early (Sunday). This will help me stay motivated and accountable on vacation.

    I am in too! I have twin babies and they are finally giving me enough breathing room to take care of myself! Need to shed the baby weight! (Did I mention that I also have baby weight to shed from the two kids prior to the twins?) Starting weight is 211. OUCH!

    Going for a hike/run on the trails right now.

    My biggest problem...I am a snacker. Boo.
