    Good morning, sexy ladies!

    Shredder: I promise to buy a pair of fishnets soon. I think I also need to find a hot little dress to go with those fishnets and my favorite pair of heels, my BCBG 3" peek-a-boo toe stilettos. My friends would absolutely die if I showed up in a dress, fishnets and heels because most of them have only seen me in a dress once! I am still planning on wearing the dress that's hanging in my closet for my birthday a week from Saturday. Now I have to decide where to go for dinner!

    Ju5t4u: I am also bouncing around the same 2-3 lbs. the past few weeks and need to get over the "hump". We can totally do this!

    To get in the spirit of things, I'd like to propose a mini-challenge to start things off. I challenge each of you fabulous ladies to get four workouts in between today and Monday. That gives you one resting day, so choose wisely! On Monday, I'd love to have each of you give a brief overview of what you did for your workouts and how it made you feel.

    Shredder said before that we have to put the work in, so let's get started!

    Crawline, I totally hear you about the True Religions.... My girlfriend bought me a pair at a jean party and even though the label says 31 and should go up to my hips at least, I can't get those darned things over my shins.....really???? Like, I ask myself, what the heck was she thinking...holding those things up to my waist covers HALF of my width ahhhhh:sad:
    Maybe she did it on purpose cause she's all the time asking when I'm gonna wear them? The little devil...
    So now I have them hanging in my closet as my inspiration and I'm determined to wear them before June.

    How is everyone out there today. Anyone taking Heather up on her workout challege? I know theres a lot of runners and exercise hotties on this thread.

  • So we weigh in on Fridays? Every Friday? for how long? OMG, I'm so confused! All I know is that I'm logging in my weight this Friday - how do I stick to this TOPIC? Can I link it to my page? I just started here yesterday so forgive my ignorance :ohwell:

    I have a suit that I bought exactly 2 summers ago. I was going to return it because it was a little to tight. I didnt b/c my boyfriend said "well, you are trying to lose weight. Keep it and let it be your inspiration." I did and now I can't even get my foot in it. So, maybe I will fit in it by the end of the year?

    I am taking Heather up on the challenge as well! I was going to take tonight off... but since she is only giving us one free day haha, I will have to workout (I have guests coming to town and I know I am going to miss exercising on Saturday) I have already written it down so that I can update everyone on Monday :D

    I am still figuring out things too... dont worry. Just pick a date to weigh in... I do Wednesdays, some people do Fridays... Just pick what you like. Just make sure that you post a comment by friday with your weight and goals and how much lost. To "stick to this topic" just go to Community Tab. Then to "my topics" in the center. It will be in the list. Hope this helps :D

    Okay, so I'm gonna log in right now and get it over with. I'm hoping this will be what I need to get my butt in gear and start shedding the pounds :)

    My SW: 202.4
    My GW: 125
    My mini goal is 3 pounds by May 1st. I know this doesn't seem like I'm setting the bar very high, but I leave for a weeks vacation in Cuba on Sunday and I'm thinking that is going to make things a little more challenging.

    ps. I won't be able to log in on the 23rd because I don't think I'll have internet access or a scale, but I promise you'll get a weigh in for the 30th.

    ComfortFood: I'm already proud of you for deciding to exercise tonight so you only have one day off. I already have a feeling you're going to be a major player here!

    I have to share that I'm pretty darn proud of myself. Yesterday I completed W8D2 of Couch to 5K....OUTSIDE...with hills and strong winds! My longest running time outside until yesterday was 14 minutes. I started Couch to 5K a LONG time ago and have been dabbling with it on and off, mostly because I gave myself excuses not to do it (a blister from snowshoeing, not enough time, too late at night, bad weather, etc.) even though I have a treadmill in my basement and access to lots of trails. Well, no more! I have four workouts left until I can start working on my speed and I can't wait.

    To top it all off, I felt cute in my snug Nike capris and snug Champion synthetic workout tank. Oh, and I'll mention the new Aasics running shoes I bought last week and LOVE. I can't ever remembering feeling cute while working out ever before in my life, especially in a public place. Yep, I'm bringing sexy back in a big way, as Shredder says!
  • I'M IN!! :tongue:

    Ok....sounds like there is some confusion out there relating to the challege and for that I apologize for not clarifying better...:heart:

    Hope this helps.

    1. Allie is manning the spreadsheet with everyones stats and i think her goal is to have it posted by Saturdays.
    2. The official weigh in day is every Friday and we would like you to post the following....SW, CW and GW. It sould only take a few minutes of your time but you do need to be diligent as failing to log your weight for 2 consecutive Fridays means you're scrubbed from the spreadsheet.:sad: This will ensure we're all on our toes and dedicated to the program.
    3. What if you like to weigh in on Wed or Mondays? That's ok, afterall we're all on different schedules, plans etc. Alls you do is take that number from the scale and post it on Friday for Allie to log into the spreadsheet. It will definitley make it easier if Friday was the consistent weigh in day with the group, but no problem...we're all flexible here.
    4. So's not to confuse Allie and have her go back over previous pages, HOLD your stats and don't post them until Friday no matter what YOUR weigh in day is. Sound ok to everyone?
    5. The other part of this is the mini challenges. For example, I want to lose 5 pounds by April 30th. Heather wants to get in 4 workouts this week. Some of you want to be able to run a mile nonstop. You see a challenge you like, jump in and get going. You want to start your own, go for it. Now as the weeks tick off and the serious ones amongst are really making the life changing commitment to health, the challenges become more intense and we embrace them as a team. But for now, we're getting used to eachother and seeing if we make the cut.

    I hope that explains things a little better. Please don't hesitate to ask for more details or clarification if you're still in a grey area:flowerforyou:

    Andree: Welcome! We're glad you're here with us.

    Okay, you gals will find that I'm a bit stalker-ish when it comes to MFP so I'm sure you'll get to know me quickly. I apologize ahead of time if it gets a bit annoying!

    Hi Shredder. I think every woman should feel sexy in their skin. Fishnets and High heels do help.
    I did a glamour shoot for my BF for his birthday gift last year and yes I was a size 18 at the time.
    LOVE how sexy shoes make me feel!

    HeatherMN Posts: 3,821 Member
    acakeforawife: Great plan on the workouts. I also give everyone permission to kick my butt if I don't follow through on any of the challenges. I need some tough love!

    crawford: I'm not a runner either, but Couch to 5K has slowly turned me into one. I have plans to run an 8K on Thanksgiving morning. I'll have a lot of work to do before I could ever run a marathon, or even a half!

    purdygrl: The glamour shoot for your boyfriend's birthday gift is an awesome idea! Who cares what size you are as long as you feel sexy! I bought a pair of high heeled black boots that zip up the calf a few months ago because I've always wanted a pair. When I bought them I couldn't zip them all the way up and now I can! I'm saving them for a special occasion to wow my boyfriend who doesn't know I bought them yet!
  • I too am a little late in the game but would love to join! I currently workout 3x a day 5x a week and am practicing a healthy diet. I bought a little black dress recently and can fit into it but I want to feel confident and sexy in it! My goal is to be back to where I was before having my last child 19months ago at a weight of 130 before my 1st wedding anniversary. Ready to do this!

    Hey Heather – Just wondering if YOUR challenge is on a different thread?? Or is it just an extension of this one? (I haven’t seen anything in the posts). If it's different, whats the name so I can find it? The sound of getting my *kitten* exercising 4 times before Monday, and any other challenges you have up your sleeve, I’m in!!

    I have to thank you ladies for the motivation! I just joined MFP yesterday, as well as this weight challenge with Shredder, and I have to tell you that I turned DOWN eating a chocolate popcicle after dinner last night :happy: YEAH MEEE!! I just kept thinking of this group, so thank you ALL!

    candice26: My challenge is simply a mini-challenge within this thread...to work out 4 times by Monday. I love throwing little mini-challenges out to the group and if everyone likes them, I'll keep on doing it! We'll see how the first one goes and what the feedback is from the rest of the ladies.

    My new-found motivation, on top of the motivation I already had, is to be at my goal weight by September 25th, which is my 10 year high school reunion. I just received word of the date two days ago. I don't know yet if I'll be attending, but if I do, I want to look so hot that the guys wonder why they didn't ask me out in high school and that the girls wish they'd been able to stay thin. Evil? Maybe, but motivating as heck!

    I'll respond for Allie. Yes, we do post here! For weigh-ins, please post on Fridays to keep the info clean for Allie's spreadsheet, but you can weigh-in any day you'd like. Allie is awesome at keeping the spreadsheet for the group and it's fun to see the stats!
