    Last weeks challenge was 50 crunches, and this weeks challenge is 50 squats...so it's up to you if you want to continue the first weeks challenge and add on or replace it with squats...my goal is to build upon each challenge to create more of a habit so I can stay in shape!!!

    50 squats is killing me. lol I have been on stress overload this last week and haven't lost a single pound. But next week is a whole new week.

    This is what I need!! The "blah to babe" fits my thoughts to a tee !

    I have seriously slacked off in recent months - getting 'soft' and noticing the lbs creeping back on....So here goes...

    "Weighed myself on Tuesday and don't want to again right now" weight: 145 lbs

    "Been there so I know it's do-able" weight: 123 lbs

    "Would love to be this so will see if do-able" weight: 116 lbs

    Hitting the gym at the weekend and going for the squats!

    Welcome Mina! The more girls we have motivating each other the better we'll do! I did my crunches and squats for today plus a Firm workout on cable :) My 2 year old attempted to follow along as well, too funny! I weighed myself at 147 this last weigh-in, down 5 pounds from Jan 1st!! My first goal is 135lbs since I haven't been at that weight for at least 4 years, then I'll try for 125 after that since that's what I used to weigh when I was in the best shape :) At this rate I should be able to wear a swimsuit by summer without being totally mortified! :happy:

    Did my crunches on my Cardio Day. Plan to start the squats tomorrow on Strength Day...need to catch up ! Thinking of mixing the two exercises up on alternate days to see how it goes..

    Great job being down 5 lbs Heather !

    can I join? sounds like just the "kick" I need to make me actually make use of my ab-lounge. DH will be thrilled to see me dust it off. I can use that can't I? regular crunches kill my neck. I'm just getting started on this journey so I'm excited.

    Doing push ups sounds good for e new challenge..this may be a long term challenge for me as ultimately I want to be able to do "proper" push ups with no knees touching the floor!. So here goes...
