    oops! My measurements (starting) should be 36/34/41. I knew that 48 number looked wrong...!

    Welcome everyone! Its so great to have a group working together! Anyone who is a little apprehensive about stating their weight etc...don't! Simply outline what you want to lose and what you hopes and dreams are for 12 weeks time!

    No-one here will judge you (and if they do they'll get kicked out of the group :P) we're all in this together!!

    Hi Everyone!!!

    I definitely need this kick - I have so many plans for summer, all of which will be made better by feeling more sexy in my own skin!

    SW: 213
    IDG: 140
    Short-term Goal: 190 by end of challenge

    Measurements: 43/49 (waist/hips), 27 (thigh)

    I am planning on integrating running, training, and Zumba classes to hopefully get me to goal. As much as I wish my focus was only toning, because of where I carry my weight I need to lose quite a few pounds before toning will be noticible! :(

    Highest weight: 275lbs
    3-30-13 weight: 180.6 lbs
    12 week goal: 168 (Healthy BMI :happy: )
    Height: 5'3"

    It may be easier to keep track of measurements in a spreadsheet like google doc or edit grid. If you like this idea and want help I can help set it up.

    Measurements (actually taken on friday)
    Neck: 13.25
    Left Arm:13.5
    Right arm:13.5
    Chest: 40
    Waist: 33.5
    Hips: 45
    Left thigh: 24.5
    Right Thigh: 24.5

    Body Fat %: 37.5%

    Also I agree with keeping the group a little on the smaller size. The bigger they get the more drama seems to take over and it becomes a chore instead of a fun motivational tool.

    Edited to include Height

    Hi everyone!

    This sounds like a good group! Thanks for starting it!

    I don't have much more to lose now but would like to lose a little more and have my BF% decrease. I have found, for me anyway, I do better if I belong to a group like this.

    I am probably the oldest member here (will be 67 next month) so I am finding that I do lose at a slower rate and possibly because I am almost at my goal weight too.

    I am just 5'2", so just a few pounds makes a difference! I will weigh and measure in the morning and do a before picture.

    Good luck to everyone!

    I forgot to add my activity ; Mon-Wed-Fri is strenght training with weights; Sun-Tues-Thurs is 10K training; Jillian Michaels DVD Killer Abs or 6 Week 6 Pak Abs (1/2 hour sessions) - 4 to 5 days a week.

    SW 126.8
    GW 120
    Bust 36
    Waist 27
    Hips 36.5
    I also took pictures. The last time was mid-Feb and there really was not much change and my weight is up maybe a half of pound. I am glad we have the challenge of burning so many calories each week, that will help me to be consistent. I hope you will keep that one for every week.

    I'm not sure what to expect in 12 weeks. I'd like to be wearing my size 30 jeans and shorts

    5'7" - Turned 43 yesterday!
    Waist 33
    Hips 43
    Chest 39
    Arms 12.5
    Thigh 27

    I was hot 10 years ago: 140 and 18% bodyfat.
    Today I hate how I look and have only one pair of jeans that fit. I haven't exercised in over 4 months; I get out of breath easily and have chronic arthritis pain in my hands (RA since 1995). My BP is high at 140/92, HR 80.

    GOAL - lower BP, be able to double my wardrobe by wearing all my old clothes; have energy, no pain and maybe run a 5k with some friends.

    I don't know how to start. Cardio? Yoga? Weights? I am off work for the summer so I have ALL the time in the world. Any suggestions?

    Hoping to reach my IGW before the 3rd of June!
    Chest/Waist/Hips: 35/29/37
    Height: 5ft2

    In 12 weeks I'm hoping to be slimmer, more toned and fit enough to run with my dogs!

    We have about the same stats! Except, you plan to go lower in weight. I will especially be looking for your progress each week. That will help me!

    Whoops, that will only get me to the "Overweight" category for BMI, got a little too hopeful. At least last month I made it to the overweight for HtWR.

    Hi, Im Sarah from the UK.I have recently started the New Rules of Lifting for Women and am just finishing stage 1. Im trying not to focus on loss of pounds as this tends to be deceptive (although Im still more focused on weight loss than I should be). My goals are to improve with my weight lifting and get stronger, drop some body fat so you can see some muscle and to fit into a size 14 jeans (UK, currently in UK size 16...just!).

    Stomach: 44
    Hips: 45
    Leg: 27
