      Ambitious!

      lol! Just a bit! I have been doing 500 crunches every other day, and it is really paying off! Today is my off day, but I really want to challenge myself.

      But, you will see ZERO extra ambition on push up day, lol! They are not my fav.

      Sounds fun and very "do-able" I'll be in! I'll do a double duty today since I missed yesterday - I've already got 50 jumping jacks in from my earlier workout, as well as 50 reverse crunches. I'll do the rest then be caught up! Thanks for this! I really like the idea :happy:

      Weight this morning was 173.8

      Wow! 500! Do you just do regular crunches or do you mix them up with bicycle, reverse, etc? I don't mind crunches and could see myself doing something like that!

      Ambie - I started out doing regular, and now I do mix in as many different types as possible. I love crunches. I actually forgot how much I love doing them. And they work! I wore a tight little black dress with NO SPANX last night for the first time in three years. I was thrilled =)

      100 crunches DONE!
    • Posts: 10
      I'm in - put them on my google calendar, since MFP mobile doesn't let you check message boards. Thanks for posting several days' worth in advance for those of us mainly using the mobile app!

      SW: 230 - after 2 week vacation where I didn't log food, and didn't gain a pound back. Want to lose another 75#!
    • Posts: 361
      yeah, i have the app as well! I will try and do a week in advance for each one.

      Still trying to catch up on jumping jacks. Have 20 done so far. Hoping to get the crunches in too today.

      Are we doing a weekly weigh in or just doing it at the end of the month?

      weekly, but if you want to do every other week or the end of the month that is fine!
