fit for october challenge

You can definitely add me! I (secretly) want to wear a sexy costume for Halloween and am (secretly) hoping to have lost /toned enough to pull one off.

oh that sounds fab hubby use dto sell ann summer style underwear cheap he bought from abroad and we have some left i would love to surprise him with some on holiday and it actually fit and look right i will def need to tone the baby belly tho or it will not have as good an effect

welcome on board

good morning and happy wednesday despite it been dull cloudy and over cast. What plans do you have for today?
i am going for coffee with a friend usual wednesday habit and a window shop around the shops before taking one of my little ones to nursery and hopefully coming home to do some jogging on the wii.

hope you all have a good day yell at me later if i dont exercise.

Good Morning (at least here in NY),

Hope everyone has a good day.

My goal today is to ride my bike half way to class. I can't ride the entire way yet because I get really out of breathe and my thighs start hurting/burning. I figure half way is better than no way! Hopefully by the end of the summer I can ride the entire way.

I'm also doing W2D2 of the Couch To 5K program today. Not excited about it, but I'm still going to push myself and do it.

Has anyone done the 30 Day Shred video? I'm thinking about starting it but I'm on the fence. Any advice or opinions???

morning
i am doing ok so far i walked for maybe 45mins and im going on wii soon to do 1hr jogging i havent eaten great but im still under calories so helathy snacks later for me
ive seen some good reviews for 30 day shred and couch to 5k i havent tried either mostly as i hate exercise in most forms i love the wii fit plus as the activities never feel like exercise just fun and im hoping to get the zumba workout for wii as well as ive heard some great opinions on zumba my advice go for what you enjoy or you wont stick at it everything is worth a go but if you really dont like it try something else we need to be happy to do things or we wont do it and then we wont lose the weight we want
its ttime here for me now but i shall be asking tomorrow if you did the cycle half way to class im finding i get my friends to aks me if i exercised if not why not and my being lazy isnt a good answer it kind amakes me more determined to do what i say i will or feel embarrassed at myself that i didnt when there was no good reason boot my butt if you dont see the exercise logged later please
have a good day

welcome aboard

christini:- i also need alot of encouragement especially when ive been busy with kiddies all day and dont want to exercise or make healthy food im hoping by starting this group i feel more motivated as i intend to be very honest and i hope when ive been having a bad day the other group members can boot mybehind to either get off the couch and exercise or encourage me back to being well behaved and focused the next day in the past ive tended to think oh well todays a fail so ill start again monday even if its only been tuesday i really want to avoid that habit this time around

timeforchange:- i have no idea on a set date in october i know ill be going away just me and hubby around the middle and im hoping to be goal weight by then but i also know ill be back on when i get home and probably while away too if i can get internet and then of course theres the needing to stick around for either maintaining or losing the rest or what i gained

i think anytime in october thats best for us will be good and then whatever we have left to acheive can become a fit for xmas/new year challenge if thats ok with everyone else?

I'd LOVE to join! My hubby's 35th bday is October and I'd like to look more like the woman he married and surprise him in the dress he bought me a few years ago! Hope it's not too late to join in!

never too late to join welcome

just let me know how much you want to have lost by october and ill try my best to keep track and then when we get there post our accomplishments or even any goals you want to hit exercise wise eg increasing amount you can run for, finsishing 30day shred or couch to 5k, getting into a size less in clothes anything that is your goal

welcome aboard

Monkey'smum, it's a journey. We need friends to pick us up when we're down, and to inspire when we have break a personal break through! Come October we're going to be happy we worked hard.

definatley i am proud of the inches ive lost so far and the weight because the weight has been a very hard struggle tweaking exercise calories etc to get where i am losing and not plateau and i wouldnt be this motivated if it wasnt for all the mfp support come october i want to be at my goal or as close as i can get and hopefully toned up some too

I would love to join if it is still ok? 20 by October would be great. Trying to lose that and more by next January. So this would be a great start. :glasses: Hubby and I will celebrate our 20th Wedding Anniversary on 1/18/12 and I would love to be below 200 by then. This would be a great motivator for me. Thanks!

of course its ok
20 years anniversary is quite an achievment nowadays ive been with hubby 14yrs november married 14yrs 28th feb 2012 id have got les stime for murder lol but hes fab and couldnt be without him

i will try and sort a chart out today of everyones goals no matter whether they are weight, inches, dress size etc and post them either later today or tomorrow morning so we can see our goal and motivate us all to reach it
