Bluiz, I love the onederland challenge! But I'm gonna change mine from 7/4 to 4/19. That gives me 7 days to lose 1 pound! I can do it, I'm knocking on the door! By 7/4, I'm gonna be 185-the lowest I've been since freshman year of college (2005). Thanks for the challenge!
You can do it woot woot!!!0 -

Today's positive mindset: I am much stronger today than I was months ago!!!
i too stretched yesterday before my walk at lunch...i "forgot" to stretch before the treadmill last night and i didnt stretch after either workout...today i'm on IT!!!!! i will stretch before and after each workout today.....
i also had PLENTY of water yesterday.....
i'm still looking good in my new clothes...they fit and they feel great.....0 -
I would love to join your challenge to help stay motivated and on track! Hope it's not too late. I'm 36 with two little girls and a husband and look forward to having others going at the same goal to keep me on track. I am working on the weightloss for health reasons. I had a stint placed in my heart at 34 and weighed 190lbs. at the time. I wasn't obese but family genes contributed to my early prognosis. So, here I am to get back on track after falling off the diet and exercise regimen last November. I have a trip I want to take next summer 2012 and I want to already be at my goal weight and maintaining it by that point. So, keep me motivated and stay on me..... please.
Oh, one other question.... what is the reference everyone makes to ONEDERLAND? Please clue me in! : )0 -

YOU CAN DO IT.....a few of you are just a few pounds away and some of you have a bit more...but push push push....even if you dont make 199 by 7/4 just think how much closer you will be to it once we move onto our next challenge....come on folks....stick it out, dig, push hard to reach this AMAZING milestone.....
bluiz13 - Thank you so much for including me in the "Challenge to Break into ONEDERLAND by 7/4/11" :flowerforyou:
I really appreciate you taking the time to do the great charts and now you've taken the time to think of those of us who might really need that extra push to get to 199.99! Thank you! :flowerforyou:0 -
My husband and I participate in an (AWESOME) food co-op, and sometimes we get weird fruits/veggies that we've never had before. Last week we got chayotes. I found a recipe for them and they turned out SO GOOD!!!! So that was my new recipe for the week, here it is if anyone is interested:
2 medium chayotes
1 TBSP olive oil
1/2 TBSP dried garlic
1-2 dashes of red cayenne pepper
Peel, and then slice the chayotes into thin strips. Saute in olive oil over medium heat for 10 minutes. Stir in garlic and pepper. Enjoy!
Super easy and a super yummy side dish :bigsmile:0 -

Don't do that what's wrong you don't have to worry somuch bout the weekly challenges as long as your doing what works for you they are just extra boosters during the week!!0 -
Today's mindset: I love myself no matter what!!
Warmed up and cooled down before the workouts and water is on point daily at 9 so far today!!0 -

I know I'm starting a bit late but I would like to join this challenge as well. [Just joined the April Move Your *kitten* Challenge on Monday.] Since there's 11 weeks left, I'm going to say I will lose 20 lbs by July 4th. My weigh-ins are Fridays so I'll provide you with my starting weight tomorrow. Also, I'm hoping to break into Onederland within the next two weeks... can't wait!! :bigsmile:0

I'm still on track just don't have time to weigh in. I'll be back soon. Lots of work and changes at home. Once I get settled I'll be back to challenges.0 -
I'm happy to say I lost 2 lbs. and that was with me being on vacation to Florida most of that time. I know I didn't eat as well as I could of, but we did a lot of walking. Since this past Wednesday I've been back on track with my eating. I really need to start some exercising.
I see we had some great losses last week, GREAT JOB EVERYONE!!
