Each week, I'll create a new check-in for everyone to write down where they are. We can discuss progress, what we've done, what we're doing to get there. It will be a great way to motivate one another, congratulate members, and maybe pick-up some tips along the way!
I did not stand on the scale or take my measurements today but please, for those of you who have or are ready to add your information, this is for you!

Also incorporating workout DVDs and on final week of Jillian Michaels Ripped in 30 and will be starting Brazil Butt Lift next week.
I need to be more accountable with food and consistent with tracking.0 -

Name: Meredith
Age: 31
Height: 5'7"
Date: 04/30/2013
Chest (breasts): 34.5
Waist (belly button): 31.5
Hips: 40
Thigh (largest part): 22.5
Calf (Largest part): 16
Bicep: 10.5
Forearm: 9.5
Goals:
Short-term: To lose 6 lbs. by the end of the month/or shrink by 6 inches.
Long-term: To be 135 by summer and 130 by the end of summer. I would like to have a body fat % of 25 or lower.
I am doing a couple of different things for May. I am doing three 30 day challenges: abs, pushups and squats. Then trying to fit in two walks during the work day (about 1.5 miles a trip). I am also doing my daily workout whether it's cardio/HIT/strength/yoga. Plus of course watching what I eat and trying to stay within my calories each day. I DO eat back my workout calories.
My work is doing a physical activity tracker through June so that is helping with my motivation. I would love to see everyone's workout schedules and how they help them. I am constantly trying to get other ideas on how to stay active too. Good luck everyone!!0 -

Name: Kyt
Age: 37
Height : fluxuates between 5'9" and 5'10" (compressed discs in the lumbar spine)
Date: 04-16-13
Current weight: 306.6

As of 04-30-13 smoking: 7 cigs, 1 snus, no e-cig cartridge (blasted batteries have dissapeared on me. They are around here SOMEwhere!)
Goals for the summer:
Continue weight loss - not sure where that will put me, because it's slowing down some right now FINALLY
Stop smoking - at least fully transition to e-cigs and snus, will work down from there
Push the swim intensity up to 800 m in each stroke, prefer complete swim to be finished in an hour (currently at 1000 m breast stroke, 400 m butterfly, 200 m freestyle, 200 m back stroke OR 400 m each stroke finishing in 65 mins. Hopefully this won't push the burns up any higher!)0 -

Goals: I plan to lose 20 lbs by July 1, 2013, this is about 2 lbs per week giver take. I say 20 lbs, however, if by toning up I am happy with the way my body looks after losing 10, I am in love with that idea as well! I do not just want to lose weight, but also tone up and feel better overall. If I can improve my energy and sleeping patterns by July 1, 2013 that would be perfect!0 -
Can't wait - I need the push and like a weekly weigh in!
Starting 5'11 and 202
GOALS - 30 day shred each day - 45 minutes walking each day - and Zumba 15 minutes each day for cardio and arm workouts and kettle bells for strength
Am measuring tomorrow on May 1st! - Hoping to lose my arms and lower belly!

OK, so I weighed in and took measurements this morning. Oh my! 158.8 (5'2"). Chest 40, waist 33, hips 44, right below belly button (peri-menopause belly fat) 41, right thigh 23.75, right calf 14.75. It has been a long time since I have measured myself so it was a little bit of an eye opener but that is ok. Need to know from where I am starting so I can get to the finish line!
Good morning all and Happy May.0 -
