    Ok we are getting close to the end of the month. How many of you want to keep this group going into July? Also how do you guys want to do our check in for next week. Do you want to have next Monday the last measurement or do you want to measure one last time for the end of the month?

    Thank you so much! So far we have a tie for the biggest drop this week at 3 inches. We are still missing lots of measurements though. If it is a tie we will see what both people want for the challenge and will give the option of picking between the two. I hope that everyone had a better week then me. I am hoping to get back into a routine and not have any unexpected things come up this week.

    Total lost: 0.75 inches. I'm finishing a class this week so hopefully i will have more time to devote to working out. I'm very interested in keeping this going through July too. This support is really keeping me accountable. However, I didn't get many pushups in this week (only about 50). With all that was happening between my jobs, family and classes i found it very difficult to squeeze them in.

    Here's to a great last full week of June! :)

    It seems that this was a lower week for all of us. Congrats though on everyone for all the inches we dropped this week/month.

    We have a tie for first place this week. bkrbabe57 and mona24523 both cleared 3 inches each this month. They will determine our last challenge for the month of June. The challenge will run until June 30th. You will be told two different challenges and you can pick one of them or if you are feeling a little over the top try to get both of them done in the next 9 days.

    You all have done great and I am more then happy to carry on into July. Hopefully we can even add a few other people to our group. I will only do one more check in though for June. You can decide if you want it to be Monday or Wednesday of next week. I will also post a link next week for our new monthly challenge.

    Thanks ladies for the joining me in June.

    Here is the challenge options for the next 9 days:
    Mona --- 300 jumping jacks
    bkrbabe ----300 side lunges(150 each side) You need to lunge all the way down and touch the floor.

    This is how the challenge will work for this week. You can pick one of the above challenge or if you are feeling extra crazy you can opt to do both. Please tell the group though what you are planning on doing. You will have until June 30th though so 9 days instead of the normal 7 days.

    Happy end of June! Let's go out with a BANG!!

    So far so good. I chose to do the jumping jacks. I did 100 yesterday and 100 today. If i keep doing 100 a day I might get up to 8 or 900 by the end of this challenge.

    What did everyone else choose and how are you doing?

    i am doing the jumping jacks because I already do 100+ each day in the 30 Day Shred. However, I think since the challenge goes longer I am going to try and tackle the side lunge also.

    Jumping Jack
    Monday --- 95
    Tuesday --- 120
    Wednesday -- 128
    343 total so far

    I am really hoping that I will finish strong with a nice drop for the end of the month.
