    Let's get this started with a bang!! Feel the morning sun on your face and get ready to make this happen. One day at a time!

    What workouts is everyone going to do today?

    We got a new elliptical for ourselves for Christmas so I hopped on that for 20 minutes for some interval cardio.

    I will walk three miles in 60 mins day 1. I used to do it in 45 mins but if I can break 60 min in days two and three I will be thrilled! Thanks again for the motivation!

    Count me in Bro. Had a goal of 299 by the 21st. Didn't hit it. So trying to get as close as possible before rolling into 2016. I don't do junk,soda,cookies.ie etc... Gone from 577 to my current 312 as of the 21st. I'll weigh in Wednesday to my New Year Weight. But Count Me In

    I'm in!! I have spent the past week trying to just get used to tracking again and ramp up to the new year, and my *official* starting weigh-in is scheduled for Friday, so this will be a great way to push myself to get serious going into the new year!

    I am going to try and fit in at least a 30 minute walk every day, and hopefully make it to the gym for some time on the elliptical.

    This is a great idea! Thanks!

    Awesome day for me! Fitness class and bjj session done. Busy day at work meant over 13700 steps. Stayed under calories although went over carb goal, but it was worth it as I went for lunch with friends from the UK who I don't get to see often at all. Very encouraging session of BJJ. Small class meant loads of attention from our Sensei and he really helped me set my mind at ease about an issue that had been bothering me.

    Tomorrow is no work so I want to get in some good training time (fitness, swim and judo) and then try out rollerblading!

    Love the enthusiasm everyone! Keep it up! I crushed 30 minutes of an intense cardio routine today, and my nutrition is right on track! Trying to plan ahead for dinner now ...

    You are all rock stars for making the choice to take control of your lives this week!

    So far I've passed my daily goal of 5500 steps (including a 30 minute walk) and did my very first ever workout with dumbbells (3 lbs).

    Love this!!! I made some questionable choices today for breakfast and lunch so I took my little butt out for a run. Hubby is ordering pizza for dinner so I am thawing out some homemade soup for me instead. Woot for not throwing the baby out with the bathwater :)

    Nice start! Highly recommend everyone do work some sort of weight/strength training into their weekly routines.

    Already completed 32 minutes of walking today, and have a very leisurely one-mile walk planned with hubby later, so I'll hit around 56 minutes of walking today.

    Thanks! I've read on here that some people wish they'd started weight training when they first started losing weight, so I decided to give it a whirl. Is it something I should do every day? I'm also doing C25K, and just walking on the days in between.
