I am still here, just haven't posted as much as I did in the previous challenges.
As of my last weigh in, I'm down 53 lbs since november. I'm super excited about that but realistic that I still have a good way to go to reach my goal weight.
I had to visit my local er yesterday because my cold has turned into pneumonia. I need a few sick days and then ill be right back with you guys.0 -

Why I like this Challenge
It is called the "Ultimate Accountability Challenge" not the
"Lose 6 lbs this month, don't care how you do it,and it probably won't be sustainable challenge"
I like this challenge because it doesn't matter if you are trying lose weight, gain, maintain.. it is just about each one of us being accountable to our own fitness goals.
Here is a post I wrote today that sums up my thoughts..

Thank you for the post. While my main goal is to lose a LOT of weight, I have included those non-scale goals as well. I hope that my NS goals will ultimately lead me to my scale goals and a happier, healthier life.0 -
This challenge has motivated me to do more, went for a swim today, haven't been swimming since my kids were small some 20+years ago.
That's terrific! Didn't the water feel great on your skin?
Sure did! Paid for it the next day though, got carried away and did 12 x 25mtr lengths... lol not gonna deter me know I've taken the plunge.0 -

Hi,
I wish I would have noticed and paid attention to this thread before now. I'm just now figuring out that it's here, and that you all are posting on it and using it. I feel so stupid. I thought it was just something that we read at the start of the challenge and were suppose to know.
I'm going to be here with you all from now on.

Thanks, Margie.
I'm going to add an unweighted bar this week to the chair squats to make them a little tougher.
I have a buggered up knee so I'm working up to 'real' squats.
Amy, don't feel stupid! Just jump in and enjoy! :happy:0 -
I'm shouting it from the roof tops! My weight officially starts with a 2 not a 3 now!0

I could have written amy_kee's post. I didn't realize all this socializing was going on! I feel like I'm coming in on a party that's half over!
I've never done a "chair squat", but plan on starting today.
So proud of all of y'all that have made it this far into the challenge!0 -
