    Im off to a great start! Have been to the gym this morning and done 30minutes on the treadmill - random hill setting. And also done 25minutes of weight circuits! Trying to get back into it!

    I will have to alter the challenge a little as I cannot do sit ups - health problem with pressure in my head, so cannot do that sort of thing without going dizzy and risking further issues. Ill think on what I will substitute it for........

    Hi all! Just signed up today and thought it would be a good idea to join a group for the support. Currently weigh 165...want to weigh 110. Have a cardiologist appt on 12/4 to make sure nothing's wrong with the old ticker...but will do my best to keep up in the meantime. Looking forward to losing weight with you all!!! :happy:

    Glad to join this group. Aiming for 6 days of fitness. Thus far, 2 lift day and yoga today. What what?! Psyched that I'm counting down to the holidays in a healthy way. Considering doing an alcohol fast so that I can enjoy my cultural brew during Christmas with loved ones....Healthy thoughts to all!

    Ladies you are impressing me already!!! Great first day....6 more days to get this challenge done :) I got 60 minutes of Zumba in yesterday. Have not attempted the sit ups or squats yet but I will tonight after class. Remember you are in control or your body and you can make it do anything you want....you just have to want it bad enough.

    100 traditional squats

    I did 60 mins Kettlersize today which, although it is weights I sweat more than doing zumba, I prefer weight workout like JM ect

    I do 75 sit-ups daily for another challenge, I've not done them yet today but I'm about to do 30ds and that has squats in so I best get counting :)

    Oh my - well Monday was 12 minutes of cardio plus legs and stomach - that should count for all of it.
    This is my karate instructors favorite work out right now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7pCVoM4eJ0&feature=g-user

    Last night - 25 squats, 50 crunches and a bunch more leg work and core with my Tabate.

    Having just joined this group today, I didn't track how many of squats and crunches we did last night, I just did them. Tomorrow I'll track them though.

    Here is what I have done this week:
    Monday - 40 mins Biggest Loser on XBox
    Tuesday - 60 mins Hot Yoga Class
    Weds - 30 mins Lolo Treadmill Program

    **** I ❤ the Lolo Treadmill program! It is a app program where you can set it to walk, walk/jog or jog and it does intervals and I really like it!

    Yesterday, completed 30 minutes of cardio, 100 squats, 100 situps, AND personal challenge of 50 pushups! I have 70 minutes of cardio left for the week and I'll complete the challenge! There's nothing like a challenge to get me going!

    Ok... I just forced myself to stand behind my desk and do 25 squats....probably looked ridiculous but now I am 1/4 done with the squats. I have done 65 minutes of my cardio since the challenge began. Now if I can just convince myself to get going on those pesky sit-ups I will be well on my way to completing this challenge. Go team!!!!!
