    Crystal - I looked at your photos from last week and there is a definite difference. Congratulations on the changes! Your stomach/waist is way tinier and you're looking great!

    Both Crystal and Cazz are huge inspirations for our group!

    :flowerforyou: Thank you!!

    I am a newbie!!! I would LOVE to join in if I may. Please add me as a friend/on the list. Thanks!!

    Just a few questions, when you say the challenge is 150 jumping jacks, is that per day?

    I will be doing the 150 miles and Leslie Sansone Video. I'm not sure I will do the pilates. I will also be doing the mini challenges to the best of my abilities.
    Sorry I have been mia for awhile. I needed to take a step back and now here I am. I have met with my doctor and now lets see where this can go.
    I have no set weight goal for this challenge like I have done in the past. It only discourages me in the end. Im just going to work on doing the challenges and follow the doctors plan and take it from there.

    Been MIA from this group for awhile but I'm now back! Need some help getting back on track and back into ONEderland! Between crazyness at work, vacation, my birthday and being sick I've managed to gain and am back up to 204lbs.

    I'm definitely doing the 150 miles challenge since I'm just starting the Ease into 10K program but instead of the pilates I'm going to do the 100 pushup challenge. It's a 6 week challenge so hopefully by the end up the 10 weeks I will be able to do 100 pushups!

    SW: 204lbs

    I actually had some quiet time while daughter was sleeping today and sat down and made a spread sheet for this challenge for myself. I thought I would share. You wont be able to edit or anything like that but maybe highlight and copy and paste if you want to use it. I don't mind. It might help some people out. There is more tabs at bottom but not all are filled out right now cause its not time for those yet. :) Enjoy. Hope it helps someone out or even gives them an idea. I like to do this sort of thing to keep me accountable.

    Ok my dearest MFP friends....I am ready to start this. My starting weight is...gulp...214. I have gained 17 pounds since last year at this time. Yes, my friends, laying on the couch all winter long, feeding my face and look what happened. Enough of this! i thought I would get off my *kitten* in the eggstra challenge but I wasn't ready. I have to have the mentality of I am ready! Today...I AM READY!

    I just got back from giving an inspirational speech to smokers who are quitting today. I need to go back to that mentality...like I had when I quit smoking. That is when I was successful. That is when I had drive. I love reading all of your successes...and I wanna have those big numbers, and I wanna look at hot as you do! So, I took my pic...put it aside for now. Got on the scale this am...not a pretty number but it is reality.

    I am going to explode those pounds for sure!

    Let's do this ladies!

    Love ya!

    OK awesome possums, here's the H20 Weigh-In Spreadsheet!

    http://bit.ly/gMSmGc

    If you'd like to participate, just add yourself to the document and be sure to update yourself weekly. Your Start Weight and Week 1 weight may or may not be the same, it depends on your weigh-in day. For example, I ended the last H20 challenge at 166.8 when I weighed in on Wednesday 4/18/11. That's my start weight. When I weigh in this Wednesday 4/25/11, that'll be Week 1.

    Whatever your weigh-in schedule is, please do be sure to put a value in for Start Weight, otherwise the "Total Lost" column will not calculate correctly.

    Also, after you've added your info, click SAVE!

    I'll get the website updated asap.

    I'm so IN!!!! Will get a new ticker started... I took my pic yesterday, so I'm happy with that, and I'll try to do all but the pilates challenges. Not that I won't ever try it, but I have so much on my plate with my running and strength training... we'll see!

    So my starting weight will be 148.8... hoping to lose another 13 pounds like the last challenge!! My current goal is set at 135, but I'm still thinking I could go lower,... we'll see!

    Good luck everyone! I'll be checking back in tomorrow with my first run!

    Exploding the pounds... love it!
