    I will join you! I would like to lose at least two dress sizes so I can wear a cute summer outfit for my son's Bday party this summer.

    I'd like to join! I am in a couple of other challenges too but there are not very active members - I'm hoping this one is different!

    I'm aiming for 8 lbs per month. I have my MFP goal @ 1.5 per week - but I am working out quite a bit.

    3 days KettleworX
    3 days running

    1 day optional (didn't take any off for the last 2 weeks, finally giving myself today off!) minus the housework, which I won't count :smile:

    Good luck everyone - I know that it's just *time* for me, No Excuses.

    Hi everyone,
    Just checking in to see how everyone is doing. I have been away from my computer for a few days. My brother-inlaw passed away Monday. My sister is a mess. I have family in town and have been helping my sister and so the diet has taken a back seat. I hope to get back on track next week.
    I would like to send my congradulations to all who lost weight this past week and hope you see more results this week as well.

    Have a great rest of the week.:flowerforyou:

    I would also like to join and lose 22 more pounds by the end of August. I used to do Spark People but decided to try this site a couple of weeks ago and it seems to be working much better for me. Right now I have really been tuning in to what I eat and trying to stay close to my allotment of calories, etc. I am a sugar-holic so have really concentrated on lessing my sugar intake.
    I need more motivation to exercise consistently. It is so easy not to do it after coming home from work. Looking forward to getting to know you all !:smile:

    I'm in. I just started in January and seems to have stalled a bit. I've been working out more than ever and i think I'm just confused on what to do with so many options. I need to find MY plan and stick to it. Want lean muscle, not big muscle. ugh!

    Hi everyone,

    Hope all is well. I started using my Leslie Sansone 's WALK at home(Walk Slim 3 Fast Miles). I LOVE IT!! It does not take the place of getting outside, but the next best thing. It is FUN! LIVELY! EASY to do. I am feeling proud that I actually got exercise in
    today. I did well on meals and my water. So far so good. I am starting with walking and adding something new each week.



    ^^I do Leslie Sansone's Walk Slin 4 Fast Miles each morning...it really starts my day off right! I love it!!

    That's great, halphord I also have a Leslie Sansone walking tape..the 5 mile one..that way I can decide how many miles I want to walk depending on the amount of time I have, plus it has some strengthening exercises with a theraband. THe tape is fun and it doesn't seem like I am walking that far.. OK , I am psyching myself to turn it on now, before it gets to late.....:)

    Wow, what a weekend! We got the news that my inlaws were moving on Friday and they needed to be out by Monday. So we spent all day Saturday boxing and loading and moved them an hour and a half to my hometown. Then my husband, sister in law and I spent the morning Sunday unloading everything into the new house. Wow!!! I looked up the calorie burn for moving and carrying boxes - (ready for it???) - 722 cals an hour . Whoa! So I am not too sure the cal burn for the weekend, but I think I like it!!! Makes me feel super motivated for the week. Hopefully it keeps up!

    Oh, and before they showed up on Saturday I did the 30 Day Shred. I was just wanting to get an idea about what to expect when we start the challange on Tuesday. I only got 1/3 through it before they showed up -they got to my house sooner than I expected, but my goodness I was Jello Muscles by the time the day was over and today was sore! It was my first shred ever....I think I love/hate it!!!

    Have a great week ya'll, looking forward to the challanges!
