    Ok everybody...I am sooooooo happy to have such a wonderful response to this little 12 Weeks Till Summer Challenge!!
    I have gotten everybody (who has posted up to this point) on my nice little chart (I haven't posted it yet though). :happy:

    Each Thursday you will post your current weight. I ask that you include your weight from the previous weeks as well. I find that it makes it easier for you to see your own progress what it is right in front of your face each time you post. :noway:
    The easiest way to post your info is to quote a comment that you previously made. Here's how:

    1) Just find the last weigh-in comment that you made
    2) Click on the "Quote" button on the bottom right of that comment
    3) You will be redirected to a reply box where you can type in new info
    4) Delete the "[ quote ]" and "[ /quote ]" that you see at the beginning and ending of the text
    5) Type in your weight for the current week
    6) Hit "Post Reply" in the lovely green box
    7) You're all done!


    We will be doing weigh-ins each week on Thursdays to check our progress. On Thursday evenings I will post an updated chart (like the one on the previous page) that shows our updated stats. I'll even highlight our biggest losers of the week. :bigsmile: Please feel free to post thoughts, ideas, motivation tips or anything else that you find important during this little journey to the lighter side. I'll even post a Question of the Day that you are welcome to respond to. I'm not going to twist your arm to participate in discussion...you are welcome to post just your updated stats each week and forget about this post between weigh-ins. :laugh:


    Question of the Day: How are you planning to lose the weight to meet your challenge goal?

    Question of the Day: How are you planning to lose the weight to meet your challenge goal?

    I will be finishing my last day of INSANITY on Wednesday the 16th. I will be starting TurboFire on Thursday and I will be using that as my workout until the end of the challenge. I am hoping to see good results. :)

    Very careful calorie counting, little to no processed foods, and a whole lot of walking/P90X/Zumba!! :laugh:

    Popular Challenge and sounds like a lot of fun. Count me in-will post my goals tomorrow.

    QUOTE: Question of the Day: How are you planning to lose the weight to meet your challenge goal?
    Plan to simply get up and move through out the day, no eating close to bedtime, and smaller portions throughout the day.
