    I'm in. My goal is to loose 8 lbs. I have fat that will. not. budge. So basically, I'm going to keep up with my workout schedule but add a little more cardio.

    S-Body pump and then fitting in a one mile run before work.
    M-repeat Sunday
    T-Body combat and cycling
    W-Body pump + Body combat
    TH-Body Attack + Cycling
    F-Body pump + long run

    I also cleaning up my diet. 2 veggies (good for starting out) and 3 fruits everyday day for the next 4 weeks. I'm eating every 5-6 hours and not a thing in between or 3 hours before bed.

    Let's get those ticker lbs. up!

    Shalea, I think it's 4% of your total weight rather than your goal loss so your 4% target would be 10lbs, hope this helps :)

    Hello. Thank you for starting this group. My goal is 10 lbs. I am excited. I think I can do it. I have been walking everyday for at least 30-45 minutes. I also am doing zumba at least 3 times a week for about 30 minutes. I am also putting in some strength training as well. I am planning to try to stay under my caloric goal each day. Hopefully this works. Feel free to add me and we can motivate each other. My weigh in days are on Sunday mornings.

    I had my official weigh-in on Wednday the 22nd at 176

    Starting date: August 22nd
    SW: 179
    4%: 7.16 lbs
    Ending date: September 22nd
    EW: 171.8

    So, I went to the state fair yesterday and I am going again next Tuesday. So, I know this is going to be a very difficult week for actually losing weight. I'll have to be extra good all the days between.

    Good luck everyone.

    Thanks! Wow 10 lbs is a lot. That's 2 1/2 lbs a week! But I'll try. If not, I'm hoping to lose at least 8
