    Hi everybody!!!!

    Let's introduce ourselves so we can get to know one another better.

    Here is my bio-

    Name-Anne
    Age-38
    Location-Virginia
    Current weight- 175
    Mini-goal -160

    Runner since April 2009 and competing since Nov. 2009. I began running to get the high calorie burn but ended up loving it more than I could imagine and today I run 20-25 miles a week. I love to meet-up with my local running group on Saturday mornings for long runs or join friends for runs. I still love the calorie burn but it gives me more than I could imagine. I gained 50lbs post pregnancy with my dd (who is now 2yo). I lost that weight plus 10 lbs more on a similar website but never lost the last 10. I gained 5 back so I have 15 more to lose. Might make a long term goal of 150 (25 lbs) as this is the best weight for me with my 5'7"/medium bone frame.

    Now it is your turn-look forward to connecting with everyone!

    Anne :smile:

    If you need a kick in the rear, or just some ideas for exercise, here's my challenge. It's optional!

    Between today (monday) and friday, do the following:

    90 minutes of cardio total (or more!)
    1 day of resistance training (weights, resistance bands, etc)
    3 sets of push ups- as many as you can do for each set (example: set 1, 5 push-ups, set 2, 6 push-ups, set 3, 8 push-ups). Do this in one sitting.

    Let us know your progress through the week and if you've done any of the challenges.

    Hey I can't join the Valentine's Challenge. I have foot surgery on Friday so that's going to keep me from doing cardio for 6-8 weeks. But keep me posted on the next one cause I'm going to need it.
    Hi everybody! :) I hope you made it over from the 15 by 2011 group! Now that we have a group name, we can try to stick together and help each other reach our goals in 2011!! :)

    If you would like to be included in the spreadsheet, all I need is Current weight, and Goal weight for Valentine's day! Then whenever you post an updated weight in this thread, you'll get updated!

    We are going to try to post workout and eating challenges as we go. Feel free to add anything you want, we all need new ideas to keep us going :)

    Welcome!

    I will post the first spread sheet tonight!!!

    I'm keeping up with the water challange, my work out plan is almost all cardio.
    My personal goal for this year is to run 1000 miles. I got the first 5 in yesterday, and plan on doing the next 5 tonight. I'm pretty slow still, so that's about 65-70 min of cardio each. My goal is to have 20 miles in by Friday :)

    fitnewlife~ total bummer, but hopefully it will solve your problems and you'll be back at it soon :)

    acarter72 and all other newbies~ welcome to the group

    Our group lost over 140 pounds in our end of year challange, I can't wait to see how far we come in this one!

    For the challenges that I posted above: we can change that to now through sunday, as some people do more work outs during, the week, and others do them during the weekend.

    I did 15 minutes of cardio (I didn't last long after my mega workout yesterday!), and did an upper body resistance training workout with resistance tubes.
