Challenge Number 1 will start on January 1, 2013 and will last for 3 weeks, with weekly check-ins.


Challenge 1:

Part one: 4 30 minute (or more) high intensity workouts per week. This means you are going as hard as you can- be it through interval training, 30 day shred, insanity: whatever it is works fine as long as we're working our hardest.

Part two: Hit your macros 4/7 days of the week (meet your goals on carbs, protein, fat)

To enter, reply to this post with as much information out of the following as you are comfortable giving:

    Height 5'4" (the doc says I shrunk to 5'3.5", but I think it's because I have no cartilage in my hip.)
    Weight 216.5
    Bust 47
    Waist 44
    Hips 48.5
    Thigh 27.5

    Going for hip replacement Feb 6, so I want to lose as much as possible and get in as good of shape as I can by then so recovery is faster and my mobility is easier.

    What a great group. i think us shorter people get a rougher ride especially with our short stride.

    Age 57.
    Height 5ft 2in
    Current weight 146

    The last 14lbs are the hardest .

    Journey to lose about a dozen pounds. It's been A LONG TIME since I looked at the scale and it smiled back...

    I think the last 15 are the hardest particularly for us short folk! Good idea for a group.

    Lovely to see the group growing as Jan 1st gets nearer! It's going to be a great start to the year :D

    I think it's great that ther is a group for short people, because losing weight when you're short is not easy, and we need all the support we can get! Also, us shorties should stick together.:bigsmile:

    Not ready to take those measurements Sisters.... I just got up the nerve to get on the scale for the first time in a month following an injury which kept me out of the gym.... Gained 10 pounds just like I had guessed.

    Please bear with me & I will take measurements at the end of January 2013.

    Sending Love, Persistence, Patience, and Hope!

    And Flowers for you, of course!

    I think it will be difficult, yet manageable! So glad to have you on board and GOOD QUESTION! I'll go fix that in the introduction: Tuesday. We'll start on a Tuesday and do check-ins that day too.
