    sorry about the contract chica, you can still get a wii if you ask every family member to give ya cash towards it for christmas, right? honestly, i think it's the best thing i've ever done. my bf and i got it two years ago and i begged everyone to pitch in and get me the wii fit plus w/ board for christmas. i love it. i also just pre-ordered the wii zumba game and am looking forward to doing that soon!

    Have had a good weekend but not really a healthy one. Although I have been under my calorie goal, the stuff I have been eating is not all that great. I guess that means that I need to get back on track tomorrow.

    In better news we just got a wii fit today and it is sooo much fun. My husband and I had a great time doing the work outs and trying to beat each others scores. Burnt a whole lot of calories and it didn't even seem like a workout.

    -Krystylea80 Congratulations on being down a pound...That is awesome! Keep up the good work :)

    -Shawna the wii is going to be an awesome investment for everyone. My family will get together and play on it for hours.

    Hope everyone is having a great weekend :)

    Glad to hear you are getting a Wii -- they're great! I absolutely love my Wii and Wii Fit Plus. Weighing myself is super easy and suprisingly accurate. It's a great motivator. I'm someone with absolutely NO rhythm, but I like doing the Step Aerobics and boxing routines. I'll leave the dance workouts and Zumba to all you coordinated folks :wink:

    My weekend was pretty good calorie wise. Even better, my sciatica issues seem to be improving so I was back on the treadmill -- yay! It feels so good to be able to exercise again. I've been limping with sciatica/back pain since August but ::knock on wood:: I think I see the light at the end of the tunnel. I was afraid I'd never be able to really walk again, and I love walking!

    I'd like to join this, even if I am a little bit late.
    Goal: 145 pounds by new years.
    That would be about a 13 pound loss.

    Hello! I know how you feel about never catching the challenges and I think this was a great idea.

    My current weight is 173
    My goal weight is 130 (though right now I'm just hoping for 140, shhh)
    My mini goal for 1/1/11 is 163

    Oh! and something about myself...lets see.

    I'm 23, I've recently moved to Japan for about 2 years, I'm going through a divorce and my husband is still stateside, and I've just picked up school again. I'm going for a BA and I am determined to finish this time, just as I am determined to get this weight off and tone up!

    I'm brand new here, and I'd love to join this challenge!

    I'm at 168.4 rigt now - I'd like to be 160 by New Years.

    I'm in my mid twenties, trying to find some direction in life. I quit smoking 2 months ago (and feel great because of it!), and my weight is the next thing I need to fix!
