    Totally forgot about the fitness challenge yesterday but I will make up for it today! The only snack I had yesterday was a banana, 104 calories for a medium size one. Great snack before exercise!

    I used to HATE bananas! Seriously...could not drink a banana smoothie, or even a strawberry banana smoothie. Since starting MFP, I have slowly come to love them!

    well so far today I had done my day 6 of 30 day shred. Yesterday was supposed to be day 6, but i made the mistake of waiting to workout until AFTER dinner, I got halfway through before my tummy hurt, so I stopped and didn't count it.

    I did about 10 crunches and 10 push-ups so far, but I plan to do another workout this afternoon so I'll get them in.
    I haven't had any snacks yet, but Im sure I will today.

    And Bstamps, I HATE bananas...well, just the actuall banana. I used to LOVE them when I was little, but now I have those texture problem and I can't eat them. however, I will eat them in banana pudding, banana popsicle, strawberry banana smoothies, anything but the actual banana. lol

    My weight has been fluctuating from 182.8 to 183.8, it's frustrating, I want to get into the 70s!

    P-cakes...you are so close to the 170s! Keep it up!

    I haven't had any snacks today! I was too busy at work to have one then did Zumba & a short ride on the stationary bike between work and dinner. I have 810 calories left today after dinner and I don't want my body to go into starvation mode so I am going to eat about 400 more calories tonight so tonight will be my night to have a more unhealthy snack.

    I totally forgot about crunches and situps though...here I go!

    How is everyone else doing w/ crunches & pushups? And what have been everyone's snacks??

    wow 7000 calories in workouts?! That'd be awesome. This week I've been doing mainly my 30DS. It's like I've lost my motivation! I keep looking at my new bathing suits for the beach and somehow it's just not working. I get off at 9 tonight and I'm still gonna do something. I'm gonna make something to hang on my wall that says something along the lines of "you won't get there unless you try" Or Sitting on your *kitten* won't get you to your goal, get up and do something!

    lol

    I did do my shred this morning. I need to get in about 15 more pushups and 15 more crunches. My snack today was a mcflurry soooo, that was NOT good.

    I'm hoping to be around 181 by weigh-in day..

    weigh in today 158
    I started power 90 last Saturday and have stayed on track all week. Hopefully that continues because I was struggling for a few weeks. I really would like to make my goal weight by June 1 which means I have to lose 2 pounds every week between now and then. I even resisted the temptation of no bake cookies yesterday and they are my absolute favorite dessert.

    WOW!! I have already burned 2686 calories this week!! If I workout tomorrow I will have burned 3000 this week! I would have never thought I was able to do that! It's kind of exciting! My only obstacle tomorrow is that my husband and I are taking our kids to an Easter carnival and then staying at a motel for the night for them to swim and have fun! I will have to get up and get done early! Wish me luck (I am not a morning exerciser).

    Well at least no one has gained so far this week!

    SW: 155
    CW: 149...finally into the 140s!
    GW: 142

    I lost 1 lb this week & I am checking my measurements tomorrow and I bet I see big changes there! It's the start of the weekend which is where most people undo their hard work...let's make sure we all stick to our plans for the weekend...I am starting with a super early 4 mi run since my husband is leaving for drill w/ national guard at 7am and won't be here to watch our daughter so I can run later. Alarm will go off early...I need lots of motivation to get up!

    welcome all newcombers!
    Saturdays are weigh-in days. Some people do it on Fridays, some on Sunday, whichever you prefer. I try my hardest to post the chart by Monday night. Sometimes work gets in my way. HOWEVER! This Monday I don't have a long shift so it should get up by Monday night.

    Also, Sundays are challenge day. You don't have to participate, but you can.

    AND, if you are inactive for two or more weigh-ins I will take you off the chart, you can still join back, but you'll have to post stats again. HOWEVER, if you choose not to weigh-in, but don't want us to take you off, just let me know. Tell me you're not doing this weigh-in or whatever! It'll be fun!

    We as a group have done so well! I'm gonna add up exactly what we've lost as a group come monday!

    Hi All,

    My weigh in this week..

    Start (Jan 1st): 154.0
    Start (this group): 146.0
    Last Week - 140.2
    Current: 139.6 - 0.8lb lost :)

    Only 0.8 lost but I am now definitely in the 130s so feeling good. I've been slacking a bit with exercise but will try the challenge this week and have also just bought an xbox kinect with the adventures game and a fitness one, also going to get dance central so with all that I hope to burn a good few calories the fun way :)

    Keep going everyone! :)
