    Hey My weight today Is 158.4 : ) !!!

    12/06 >> 160.0
    01/03 >> 158.4

    Yay~~ Plus you got to have cake!! :O)

    Haha yep I was thinking the same thing! : )


    Yesterday I was pretty proud of myself. I did TWO twenty minute workouts with my ea active 2 trainer, she didn't push me as hard this time so I didn't burn many calories (140) but it was enough to push me over the edge and I went down by 0.4 so thats ok by me. : )

    I forgot I was supposed to weigh for this this week!
    My weigh day is usually Tuesday and I just didn't do it today because I felt the scale was going to bad.

    I will have a weight next week though.

    Hello all my Sexy Sweeties and Studs!!! (I'm so excited we have guys and girls for this challenge!)

    It seems that a lot of people are still joining us and that's GREAT! Remember, anyone can join at ANYTIME! (sorry Christie, I know that's hard on you! ) We are here to support everyone!

    For those of you who HAVEN"T weighed in for this week, I am going to tell MrsSeaShell to give you a 0 for the week and then she can add your weigh ins to next week's spreadsheet since she is trying to collect all the information she can! Please remember we must weigh in as soon as possible to be respectful of her hard work on helping us with a spreadsheet. I know some of you haven't seen what an amazing job she does yet, but wait until you do! She even posts a TOP 10 list and that really increases the competition around here! It's awesome!

    FOR THE NEWBIES:

    Just a brief overview:

    General weigh ins are Mondays, but if you have a different day you typically weigh in that is fine, but please just post as soon as you can for the above reasons!

    I post Challenges that are not required, but are here if you need some motivation and something to help you work towards. They aren't always easy. You can come back here and check for them. I try to post several days in advance. So, make sure to check back often to make sure you keep up if you are interested. Remember they arent REQUIRED! Just for help!

    That's about it! If you have any questions feel free to send me a private message! I try to keep up with as much as possible on here but I'm more likely to get back to you MUCH QUICKER if you send me a private message!

    On here I might miss it because there are so many posts I need to read.

    WEDNESDAY CHALLENGE:

    10 Water
    20 Minutes Resistance Training (weights, pushups, etc...you choose, mix and match if you want)
    30 Minutes Cardio

    Under Calories


    THURSDAY CHALLENGE:

    10 Water
    45 Minutes Cardio
    Under Calories

    Bonus: You MUST completely rid the house of ANY leftover candies, cookies, etc... from Christmas and New Years. There's NO EXCUSE to still have them lying around taunting you with their sweet and salty fattening goodness!!! Take them to work, give them to the skinny people! haha!!! Have a THROW IT OUT night and then take the family to a healthy dinner as a reward and then bowling! (by the way bowling is way fun and burns TONS of calories!) Oh yeah, call ahead and make sure it isn't a League Bowling night in your town....


    FRIDAY CHALLENGE:

    10 Water
    60 Cardio (Remember this doesn't have to be all at one time if you need to mix it up and do 20 minutes at a time. Cleaning your house counts!!! So go do some laundry and vacuum!! It's worth it!)

    Under Calories


    ** Bonus.....Plan your "night out" for Valentine's day. It doesn't have to be with your spouse/boyfriend/girlfriend. It can be with just friends. What would you want to do 10 pounds skinnier? Where would you go? What would you wear? It doesn't even have to be on the exact date of Feb. 14th! For fun, come back here and post! I would love it if we can really do something fun for ourselves b/c we will deserve it for losing these 10 pounds (and then some!)

    Tuesday Challenge: hit all the goals for Tuesday. Yay! Had to go to bed early though to keep from eating in the evening!

    WEDNESDAY CHALLENGE:

    10 Water -did this already
    20 Minutes Resistance Training (weights, pushups, etc...you choose, mix and match if you want)-did a 53 minute cardio sculpt class. It's so fun but can be soooo hard. We do light weights but tons of reps (for example, today we did 100 shoulder raises with 3 lb. weights-my shoulders are crying!) and while we are doing the weights we are doing squats, lunges, and leg lifts. I'm not gonna be able to take the stairs tomorrow. I usually do this class on Mondays and Wednesdays but haven't been in over a month because of my son's surgery and Christmas break.
    30 Minutes Cardio-then I went and did a 45 minute spin class!

    Under Calories (I hope to be, I burned a ton of caloires and I don't eat all my exercise caloires back, but we are having ribs for dinner)


    Posh, thanks for taking care of us!
