    GW:186 (December 31st!)

    About 2LBS per week, my goal is to complete a work out everyday in October, and work out 5 days a week in November and December. Ultimately I'd like to be burning around 400 calories a day whehter that means I get up early before my 12hr shifts or stay up late! I'll post before and after pictures as well as weight. I'll update my weight in MFP every Tuesday for all to see. WISH YOU ALL LUCK !:) WE GOT THIS!!

    This week was a small loss but I was fortunate to lose that much. I ate terribly this week and only exercised twice. Off to a better start this week.

    That's @1.5 pounds per week, buy we will see. I am new to this and just raised my calories a few days ago because I wasn't eating enough.
    Anyway, I will be doing high intensity strength training 3 days a week and HIIT once a week. I am doing the 15 minute workouts from Men's Fitness.

    I increased my cardio, burning between 550-650 calories 5-6x a week. Doing the total gym for strength exercises. Finally got on a roll this week and stopped snacking on bad food, now snacking on healthy food. Let see what next weeks weigh in brings.

    My goal was to get to 200lbs this year...Then i changed the goal to 199, to say I weigh in the 100s...207.5 lbs today big baby...HOLLA AT YOUR BOY. Im losing roughly a pound a week....so with 15 lbs to go, and the determination of a termite, I'm probably going to come in at 195-190 by the end of the year.

    I plan to get here by doing my cardio 5 days a week, strength training for 3 of those days on top, and trying to eat cleaner. I will cut out diet sodas and drink a little bit of coffee to get my caffeine fix. I'm ready. :)

    I am in! It will be nice to do a long challenge.

    CW:229
    GW by New Years: 200

    29 pounds feels like a lot to me for some reason but it would be nice to be at 200lbs by new years.
    I will accomplish this goal by eating healthy and sticking with my current workout plan of 4-5 days a week
    My exercises vary between zumba, body jam, 30 day shred, and regular gym workouts.

    Weigh ins- Mondays: since it fits with most mini-challenges
