    I just joined this site and my goal is to lose 100 pounds and so far I have lost 43 pounds. But it is getting harder and I am finding myself in need of support. My family have been great with this but it is hard to be supportive when you struggle with weight issues like so many in my family do. So I hope that I can find the support that I am looking for on here. Thanks

    Hi all,

    I was in the gym this morning and for the first time ever when I walked pass the mirror near the end of my workout this morning I saw that I actually had the sweat spots in my shirt. You know the one's that the guys that are already in shape get because they sweat alot. I had sweat spots in the front an back of my shirt. I'm not a sweating person at all, it takes alot for me to sweat. So This I'm considering a milestone for me. I've been pushing myself in the gym this week and the sweat proves that I'm doing something right! I'm excited

    Just wanted to share that
    Have a great day everyone

    I wish I weren't a sweating person. I sweat with little exertion. Great job on breaking a sweat though! It is always great to feel accomplished after a workout and evidence of your hard work just helps!

    This is great. Just started today. I was in the emergency room yesterday all day because my blood pressure was 220/120. Very scary. I weigh 240 and I know that is the main reason my blood pressure is up so high. Blood pressure is very weight sensitive. It's time for me to make a change.

    My food journal is open too.....feel free to look. My #1 goal right now is getting my BMI below 40, so I am no longer considered morbidly obese. I am on the edge.

    Hey ladies! Just wanted to let you know I did the challenge yesterday, and yes I did sweat!! :ohwell:
    Today I did the chair workout, and it was actually harder than I thought! But it felt good to get it done.
    The day 1 boot camp challenge will have to wait till I get home from work. :happy:

    So Shaqueta, sweating is a good thing!

    Keri, I hope you are able to start soon on the challenges. Once you get them knocked out, you'll feel so much better...like mission accomplished! :flowerforyou:

    Vackso7, Yay on the elliptical time, and on doing the 10 minute workout! I love those short ones that get your blood going!

    Justmeinindy, No you are NOT ALONE. Thank God, because before I started this, I felt alone, and miserable, and all you guys made it all better ! :heart:

    Hotpinkmomma, This is the reason for creating this group, so we would be in a group of people who understand what it's like to have major weight to lose...not just those last 10 pounds so I can fit into that size 2 again....I hear people say things like that and I want to scream!! But it's good for them I suppose, just not good for my self esteem. So I get you 100%

    So for the record this group has grown to 71 STRONG dedicated women! We are going to do this together!

    If you haven't already, check out the daily challenge, and the day 1 boot camp workout.

    Also just a reminder, weigh in is tomorrow, and every Friday, so let's see everyone post their triumphs! And remember even if you don't lose, or even gain a little, it's still a triumph because you stuck it out another week!

    We will just keep this thread going, so all of you chime in!!!

    I believe I have added all of you on my friend's list, but if I have missed you, please add me!
    I LOVE YOU GUYS!!! :heart: KEEP MOVING, and DRINK DRINK DRINK that water!

    Just checking in. checked out both the youtube videos posted as challenges. Need to clear a bit of floor space before attempting :) So I won't get started on them until tomorrow, but will try and catch up over the weekend.

    I'm up 1.2 lbs since Monday - that is substantially better than I was expecting since I've been gaining steadily all week. No clue why....so 1.2 makes me happy and I do relate it to the little bit extra exercise I'm getting with the daily challenges.....they do add up
