For the new ones - we just finished our first month last week, and this friday are starting a new month, beginning Friday.
Every Friday morning we post our weight (and measurement - if you want) changes for the past week.
It's pretty motivating - and glad to have everyone on board for round 2!!!0 -
I'm in....but didn't weigh myself at the gym this morning....I'll do that first thing in the morning and post then, from then on...it'll be on Fridays with the rest of you:drinker:
Great challenge idea:flowerforyou:0 -
Alas, a rather crappy week weight wise, but it is truly my own fault. Just didnt feel like doing much of anything other than eating and it shows. Oh well, time to move on and do better.
Starting Weight 125
Week 1 Weight 124.8
Week 2 Weight 124.2
Week 3 Weight 124.0
Todays Weight 1250 -

Me too. I thought the competition would give me the kick i needed. I have made bad food choices since last week. I was mostly good, but then blow it at dinner. I have exercised, but not like i should. I'm trying to work on that more.
Anyway...here goes...
Starting weight: 219
Current weight: 2180 -
okay people here is some friendly motivation :happy: always when you are looking at food and really wanting it, think to yourself "who am i cheating?" "it is me thats who!!!"(meaning yourself) that is what i do then I turn around get some water and put LOTS of distance between me and the bad food choice. It does not always work but most of the time it does. Just look at yourself and say I want better!!!!! you can do it!!!!!!0

OKAY SO A NEW GOAL FOR NEXT WEEK(if you want to) Since it is the last week of our competition. I SAY we should rub in all the excersise that we are doing!!!
WHY you ask????
1: It will force slackers like me to actually excersise
2: It will give eachother new ideas
3: It will let you see what other people are doing and maybe give you the kick in the pants you need to get out there yourself (aimed also at myself:laugh: )
So this week
Saturday go for a walk with my kids-1 mile and clentching my buns for extra muscle tone:blushing:
Sunday i'm going to do an activity with my whole family
Monday go to the park and play with my kids
Tuesday 30 min workout video and 50 situps
Wed go for a walk with my kids
Thursday 30 min work out video and 50 situps
Friday NOTHING:bigsmile:
So when all of you guys check back in feel free to add what you're going to do this week
so that I can steal some of your amazing ideas0 -

Tuesday: (one of the days I don't have much time to work out) elliptical for 20 min, stair stepper for 20 min and stretch
Wednesday: Tae bo tape at home for half an hour with weights on my hands and ankles and the resistance band
