    Exercise calories earned: unsure, have not synced Fitbit yet (HRM says 507, but that includes weights, which I don't take into account--they're my extra/buffer calories!)

    Yesterday's workout was 45 minutes of weights and 30 mins on the treadmill at 4.3.

    Today's workout will be 45 mins on elliptical plus squats, lunges, push ups, russian twists, crunches and leg lifts.

    My starting weight is 140 lbs (for the challenge) by the end of the challenge I hope to weight 130.
    My ultimate goal is between 115-120.

    Tuesdays are my day for sleeping in. So it's 10:00 am, and all I have done is 50 sit ups. I will be at the gym around 2 though!

  • My name is Melanie and I'm currently in the running to win 40% of $2600 in an online Biggest Loser Challenge. Hoping this will give me a little more accountability! I just purchased a BodyMedia FIT armband and I'm thrilled with it; I think it will help me reach my goal weight (which I have not been in over 10 years). I'm vertically challenge at just over 5 foot and would love to be even less but for now, 130 would make me ecstatic! Two years ago, I was almost 200lbs so that would be a big loss :smile:

    Hi! My starting weight is 178.6 - I want to get down to 140. Not going to do that in 8 weeks, but hopefully at least 10-15 (more would be good!)

    Currently just started Level 2 of 30ds - also going on my rower daily as I want to get fit enough to join the local rowing club. I'm hoping to start running more regularly too.

    I'm trying to eat cleanish - I eat protein and veg/salad 5 times a day (don't always manage to do that but I try!). My head is definitely in the right place at the moment, so making the most of it!!
  • How do i know what team i am on... go whatever team! Lol

    Hello all. I am Carey (CareyBeth) - I am 50 years old, retired last July and moved to our 80 acres in SW Virginia. I am married and have a 10mo old rescue lab mutt named Hoover.

    About 8 years ago I weighed almost 180 lbs. and lost 50. I kept it off for 6 years. Then, I discovered I have hypothyroidism (now on meds) and between that and retirement last year, I am up over 165 lbs. .... something I said would NEVER happen again. So, bought a Fitbit, have been trying to keep very active, and am on a quest to be healthy again. This is just the kick start I need.

    Team RUBY (I think)

    Currently 165.4
    Goal: 145
    10k steps every day for last 8 days.
    Trying to keep a daily calorie deficit of at least 600 - 700 per day.

    Other goals - get off blood pressure meds and get my cholesterol in check :)
  • I am now on super mommies team. will begin my first challenge tomorrow

    My name is Sue. My end of year goal will bring me to my weight when I got out of the Army and pre-pregnancy weight, I haven't seen that number since 2001 but am determined this time to get there. I can't keep saying I just had a baby since my youngest is 9! :)

    10,000 steps everyday! That is FANTASTIC Carey! The closest I have ever got, is about 9500, that is really GREAT! Congrats
  • How do we know what team we are on? Also, I see folks posting certain stats such as calories burned/deficit, calories consumed, steps taken, etc. Do I need to do that? I just ran a weekly report according to my BodyMedia armband and this is what I came up with:

    Average daily calories burned - 2355
    Average daily calories consumed - 1589
    Average daily calorie deficit - 766
    Average daily steps - 9445
    Average sleep duration - 5:28 (yes, I don't sleep much!)

    This includes 2 days of which I injured my knee moving and was laid up in bed (my usual daily steps are around 12,000). I ate Girl Scout cookies to console myself....LOL. And that led to an increased daily calorie consumption. I am trying to keep my calories around 1300/daily for a deficit of 1000 per day.

    So what are the teams all about and how do we know which team we are on? :smile:

    ST: 205.6
    GW: 140-150
    Mini goal: get under 200!!

    I usually eat around 1200 calories and will burn about 500+/- a day. Last Monday I was down to 201 but a bad, bad week got me up to 205.6. It is very depressing and made me want to quit because I have been losing about 1-2 pounds a week and on one week of not watching what I eat like a hawk I go up almost 6 pounds its ridiculous. I also have Hypothyroidism and have been having trouble getting that under control. I am exited about this team I hope all goes well!. Yesterday and Today have been great.

    In about 3 weeks I have a police officer physical agility test so I am looking to get as ready as possible! Its not that easy for me to exercise since I am currently taking care of my mother who has stage IV renal cell carcinoma. So alot going on.
  • My name is Carmen. My SN is super_chicva88 feel free to add me! I will friend anyone!

    My start weight was:234
    My start weight for this challenge is 226.4

    My goal for this challenge is to get as close to 200 as possible but realistically i would like to be at 210 when this is over.
    I usually eat about 1400 calories a day but I love chocolate pudding so I sometimes go over board with it. I am trying to get on a better workout plan. I cant wait for warmer weather so i can walk/ride my bike/ run outside. I think i am gonna start 30DS this week. I wish I had some people who actually do what they say they are gonna do instead of just saying it. Anywho... lets go team RED!!!

    My starting weight as of today is 291.2. Just had a baby Dec. 10, 2012 and trying to lose what I had already packed on prior to the challenge. I want to lose as much weight as possible so I do not want to assign a number to it, Just waiting to see how I do juggling both kids and work.
