Hello everyone! It is day one of our challenge! I hope you all got your measuring tapes and your scales ready! This is the format I want you to enter in!
We will be weighing-in every Friday. you have until midnight on Friday to put in your information. Every Saturday, I will post the results of the week. Every two weeks we will be taking measurements. Measurements are more accurate in seeing how successful we are! Measuring tape is inexpensive and very useful! If you have trouble forgetting, refer to the calendar!
Good luck!!!

Guess I'm a bit top heavy these days. 42-30-38 Yikes! I'm psyched though b/c these measurements are my "after" measurements from the 30 day shred. I lost the most off my hips and thighs (2 inches off the hips, 1.5 off each thigh and 1.2 off my waist!).
I'm pretty psyched about this challenge starting today. It will give me the motivation to continue on strong through the spring and into the summer.

Hi everyone! I'm sorry I didn't get this in yesterday. It was my birthday and I was out of the house most of the day. Then I didn't get home from work until after 1:00am and just fell into bed.
Starting Weight: 212.0

How you plan to do it: I just bought an elliptical and I will be starting Jillian Michaels 90 day Body Revolution on Monday.
Your Strengths: Well, I'm determined not to quit, even though I'm almost at my heaviest (It's been a stressful few weeks and I'm a stress eater)
Your Struggles: I lose motivation very very easily and like I said, stress eater. I'm hoping to overcome these!
I will get my measurements in as soon as I get a tape measure. I forgot it when we were shopping last and I just didn't feel like stopping after work yesterday.
Good luck everyone! I look forward to getting to know you all and rock this challenge!!!!0 -
Starting Weight: 150.6
Challenge Goal Weight: 135
How you plan to do it: Cleaner eating, sticking to my calorie counts, and combining weight training with my favorite thing--running!
Your Strengths: When I set my mind to it, I can do anything. I have lost 31 pounds so far, so I know I have it in me to lose the last 15-20. I also have a gym membership which eliminates weather related excuses for workouts.
Your Struggles: My schedule is my biggest struggle. I work all the time. If I'm not at work, I'm at school. If I'm not at school, I'm doing house work and trying to spend quality time with my babies and my hubby. This means that working out takes time away from something else I need to be doing, so it can be a struggle to fit it in sometimes. It also means that my food choices are not always easy bc a drivethru is all I can fit in.
I'll post my starting measurements tomorrow--I'm not sure if my last measurements I checked in with are credible since I can't seem to drop the 3 pounds I gained in the last challenge. 0 -
Ok, this is a new one for me, but here's hoping it keeps me on track!
Starting weight: 162
Challenge goal weight: 150
How you plan to do it: eating within my calories, Wii Fit, lots of walking.
Your strengths: I'm good at sticking to my calories during the week, and I'm pretty realistic about weight loss (although I have panicky moments!) Plus I have my first ever hen-do on June 1 which is my date-goal!
Your weaknesses: I tend to go away to see family and friends at weekends, and as I'm not telling people I'm looking to lose weight, keeping to calories when I'm with other people can be tricky. Especially as I don't want this to take over my life and stop me taking part in social occasions.
