    Is it too late to join? My name is Lisa and I am 170. I gained 5 lbs over the holiday weekend!! Ugh! I would like to lose 5 lbs. by the end of the month.

    It's never too late to join (well, unless it's August, lol). Feel free to add your name to the end of the list. :)

    Hey everyone. Welcome newbies. The more the merrier and the more accountable! :flowerforyou:

    Well we went for ice cream yesterday and I ate some. I thought the calories would be through the roof but they were about half of what I expected so we'll see how that goes. I didn't officially workout on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday but I cleaned and walked and shopped. I did get back into the workout tonight. I can feel my body firming up but with a soft outter layer.:blushing:

    I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. Be kind to yourself and get back in step if you've lost your place a little, like me.

    SO hot in toronto yesterday! 44 celcius with the humidity! I still managed to make my self go to the gym for a 3.5 mile run on the treadmill. Sweat like a PIG, but felt better after.

    What sort of workout routine is everyone using to help shed the pounds? Any great workouts you'd like to share?

    Kate :happy:

    I have a bike that I ride with the kids in a little kiddie trailer. I also have a baby weight workout I do through Parent's Magazine. I've been doing that 3 days a week. I just need to get my food intake under control.

    I am almost done with my 30D shred and i am hoping to start Chalean extreme. Please has any one done Chalean Extreme? What can you say about that? Does it help with weight loss or how much weight loss did you achieve. Anything at all will be so much appreciated. I know I have so much questions about this but I really want to know what I am getting myself into. Thanks in advance. Ifychudy

    Hey there July people! I've actually lost a couple of pounds so far this month, 2 down and 4 to go, yeah!! I just found out yesterday that I am vitamin D deficient have to take a Rx from my doctor, and since I've learned that could be causing a lot of my joint pains (my ankles maybe??), my daily severe fatigue, and a host of other things I've been complaining about for a long time now. So I'm pretty anxious to see if this changes things for me.

    I hope everyone did well over the holiday weekend and had a great time!

    Quite surprised at my 3lb loss this week, I wasn't so great over the weekend, let myself go a bit! These next 3lbs will be a lot harder to shift I imagine. :grumble:

    To anyone who is struggling. We all go through it and we will all go through it again (or we wouldn't be here). The good thing is that when you are a part of a group, there is also someone who can be strong for you. Sometimes we lean and sometimes we support. Your turn to support will come back around, don't worry. :flowerforyou:

    Congrats to the weight losers this week. I hope to join you soon. Tomorrow is my weigh in and I'm down 3 pounds (after gaining 2). If it holds, I'll log it. I will owe it to doing well over the weekend and working out for 5 days. So simple, right. :laugh: I'm also drinking more water. It feels so good to just live life. Of course there's meal planning and exercise but it's becoming more natural.

    So, I may have mentioned this before but I've learned that I can't do challenges. They stress me out and I end up sabotaging myself. I only bring it up because I wanted to join one but had to stop myself. I'm doing fine without it. I love our accountability here though.
