    Great job ladies! Knowing that I need to check in is really helping me. Thank you so much Rach for setting this up :)

    This week is going to be tough. I have my MRI on Thursday and it's going to be in the 90s for the next two days. The AC died over Memorial Day weekend, so, no AC at the house. I had planned to hit the gym those 2 nights since they have AC and DH has to go out for work, BUT, I'm fighting a nasty cold and I'm sore as all getout today. :( Just realized as I wrote this that I'm working from home Thurs in the 94 degree heat. I think I'll setup shop in the basement.

    My goals for this week are:

    Get in my workouts somehow - only 3 days left of Level 1 30DS, I'm dying to try Level 2
    Drink my water - this is a toughie with a cold
    Eat right and don't blow it on stupid stuff

    I cut way down on my carbs yesterday and lost a pound after one day O.O Hoping it's not a fluke, and I'm going to continue with it. I bought myself a Victoria's Secret bikini because I have a bonfire this week, and I feel pretty confident in it (kind of, my bottom half still sucks but eh) and it's kind of inspiring me to diet harder. I also started drinking a butt-ton of green tea and it seems to be doing some good (:

    Look at all those incredible losses! Fabulous job, dolls!
    Goals for the week:
    1) Finish the godforsaken paper I should be working on and get it done and out of my life TONIGHT.
    2) Work out with my girl Asiral, getting my cardio in.
    3) Make it through my "rest week" of P90X.... my new, formidable biceps are already going soft, Haha.
    4) Get a call from the hospital I interviewed at Friday saying I got the job! I should hear tomorrow!


    Have a spectacular week, girls!

    well i messed it all up over the weekend again!!... why!?! apparently i need to work on my self control. my goal this week is to continue with the c25k and really focus over the weekend!
  • Ok, I know I've been in and out of here posting and what not but I really want to be on board and be included on the weight loss chart, I need to be accountable! Soooo, HUGE dilemma...I've been using our Wii balance board to weight myself this whole time because we didn't have a scale, well hubby and I were at Target this weekend (I LOVE that store!!!) and bought a good scale because we are both trying to lose weight, well, I guess the Wii was WAAAY off because I thought I was at 209 according the Wii and this scale has me at 217 (yikes!) so I guess that is my most current weight now, I thought I was getting closer to One-derland but guess not :( I am still putting that I've lost 11 pounds because regardless of what the numbers read the scale still went down by 11 pounds....so that's where I am at this week....so do I need to have my weight submitted on Sunday evening then? In order to be on the chart? Sorry for the novel, hoping to be a more active member here! Thanks! Let's do great this week!

    Send me your weight on Mondays. If you have it earlier and want to go ahead and send it, feel free. I get some weights on saturday and sundays. As long as I have them before I post the next week thread and the results chart. I'm going to start posting it on Tuesday mornings, since we get a lot of people that don't weigh-in until Monday night. It saves me from having to update it a couple times. :flowerforyou:
  • Woot Woot!! Keep up the great work ladies! =)

    Okay, goals.

    1) Continue with 30DS - just finished Day 16, this is TOTALLY DO-ABLE!
    2) Eat more. I'm finishing days with under 800 net, this HAS to change.
    3) Work out less. The corollary to Goal Two, I'm trying to do too much, and it's stalling my losses.
    4) Keep trying to remember my $%)$ vitamins. I don't EVER remember them until I'm in bed and about to fall asleep.
    5) Stick with the before/during/after pictures. I haven't taken any for June, and NEED TO.

    The bonus is that my 30DS photos are showing some major changes. I still look pretty crummy, but I can actually see the changes that two weeks brought me. What's funny? It's two weeks that the scale have told me I've lost maybe three pounds. Maybe. And that's if you listen to my high day versus my low day. Realistically, the scale is telling me more like one pound. But there are MASSIVE changes in my body. A pair of shorts I couldn't even TRY to button two weeks ago now fit. Snugly, but they fit. I have to remember to keep this in perspective when I'm feeling miserable because the scale is telling me nothing is changing.

    I may need to bump up my activity level for the summertime. Once the weather gets nice, we just don't hold still as much, and that might be part of the problem. We'll have to see.
  • Thanks Rach!

    Wow! I have been really doing crappy this challenge! My goal for this week is to LOG, LOG, LOG my food!!!! I tend to fall apart over the weekend which has resulted in abysmal losses. I WILL keep on logging all through the weekend!

    I haven't had a loss in two weeks so I'm going to try to kick it up a notch this week.

    Goals for the week:
    - log EVERYTHING. Food and Exercise. I need to see it to believe it.
    - add in more P90X workouts to my TurboFire workouts
    - try to curb my snacking. I haven't had any pop for the last month (except for one at the movies), so if I can cut that out I'm sure I can cut down on the snacking.
    - get outside more. Break out my bike!

    Hi ladies! I just joined this week! I'm at 195 right now, I'm trying to ultimately get to 160 again, and seeing 145 would be amazing! I'm also trying to get more active and fit. I work full time as an optical coordinator at Vision Works, and I work part time at a local crab cake place doing festivals and such on weekends, typically Saturdays. So I'm pretty busy, but I neeeeeed to get into shape. I'm pathetic, for sure. I can't lift anything, I have like, no strength! So I'm taking back my body haha.

    I also recently found out I'm hypoglycemic and have a wheat and gluten allergy. It's not ridiculously bad, I can still have pizza and such, but I'd feel so much better if I could cut it out completely. Which is so hard!! But I'm doing my best, and that's all I can do. I love doing challenges like this, and I had done pin-up and alternative modeling so I'm trying to get back to my old body!! So far everyone is doing so great and I really hope I can as well!!

    Thanks Rach, and congrats, girls! :)

    My goals for this week:
    1. Log what I eat every day to find out what needs to change.
    2. Keep drinking loads of water.
    3. Exercise every night. (It actually seems to be working better for me to work out in the evening instead of in the morning!)
    4. Eat more fruits and vegetables instead of the carbs I love too much!

    Well done everyone, and thanks Rach for the charts. It's nice to see the numbers, and helps with motivation.

    I cant see the charts!

    Oh well -- I didn't lose last week but I'm feeling really good this week!

    My goals this week:
    1) Find some ways to mix-up my exercise routine. I won't lose if I do the same routine every day.
    2) Not get so out of control (and lazy with logging food) on the weekend.
    3) Take my calories down a little so that I am more careful with my eating after 3pm when I get home from work. It got too hard to eat back all those exercise calories late in the day!
