    hi every one
    last night i found netflix workout vids and tried a couple out. it was great.
    fyi i wont be on much. i have a busy week to prepare me and my house for my un-planed trip to texas for two weeks. i will weigh in sat morning before i leave. i will miss one weigh in because i wont have a scale. i will have online but i'm not sure ill make it on much. cross your fingers for me, i will be staying with a foodie. i will have very little control over my time and diet when i am there.

    Hello!

    Well I am on a role guys and feeling great. I am hoping I can hang on to these feelings. I am a realist. No binges, but good clean eating even though I am still going over my calories.

    I checked the scale today....:-) and I am down from weekend weigh in. I can't help it but I am not weighing every day now so I will take it. I actually got on the scale because I thought I was up and wanted to see how much so I was pleasantly surprised. I will wait until weekend to record it. I still hope to get in 3 days under 2,000. If not I will keep trying because I want to be in the calorie range I need to be in for life.

    Good job everyone!! We can do it!

    I have an idea, what do you all think about me posting a chart every month. I didnt want to set a limit on this group as to the number of people who can join like many other groups do, because I feel everyone has a right to be in the group. With the charts when their made, because we have so many people, when its uploaded to photobucket, its very hard to read. Since this is a mid to long term group because we will be checking in until July or until you lose your 50 lbs, so I was thinking of posting a progress chart every month. I hope that's ok with everyone. I really liked the 3500 calorie burn challenge this week. I still want to push everyone to keep going. I have been looking online for a new challenge that we can push ourselves with starting Friday. Thank you everyone for joining this group, having patience with the chart, and thank you for pushing yourself to succeed.

    I would LOVE to join this group! You guys are so amazing!! This is for real a crazy CRAZY challenge, but I KNOW we can do it! WHEN I meet the challenge (not if!), I will be only 14 pounds shy of having a normal bmi...I haven't seen that in 10 years!

    Starting...last time I weighed, on Monday 1/3, I was 209
    Goal for July 1, 159



    My boyfriend and I are doing this other challenge that ends on July 1--for every day that passes since 1/1/11, you do that many reps of push-ups, dumbell rows, and squats...I adapted the exercises for my girlieness...Here's the link with info on that one if you want...http://chadwaterbury.com/waterbury-challenge-2011/?utm_source=getresponse&utm_medium=email&utm_content=The+2011+Waterbury+Challenge+Starts+Today!&utm_campaign=chadwaterbury


    By July 1, I will lose 50 pounds and be able to do 182 push-ups! heck yes! :happy:

    Why do you want to lose 50+ pounds?: HEALTHIER BMI AND JUST TO GENERALLY FEEL GOOD ABOUT MYSELF.
    What are your eating and exercise plans to lose 50+ pounds?: CUT BACK ON CALORIES (ESPECIALLY SUGARS), TRACK MY EATING, AND EXSERCISE MORE (TREADMILL, FLOOR EXCERCISES, ETC).

    I think posting a chart every month is a good idea.
