    Challenge Goal - 250 (wait... when is SPRING done? June 20?? if so that's my goal)

    I joined the Just for today goal challenge, but need to be accountable for exercise too. I'm starting the 30 day squat challenge and the 30 day plank challenge today.

    Hey guys I'm really happy that we got a great group. I'm looking forward to the next three months. We can do this together.

    So how is everyone doing so far? I'm doing great. I'm following my diet and drinking more water. Tonight I will be doing some strength. I've been slacking in that department.

    He everyone. Would like to join also. Had a bad week last week. Dr told me I have no Cortisol and no Growth Hormone in my body. My thyroid levels are low and cholesterol 300 x more than it should be. And that there is no way I can lose weight at this time. I'm not happy and of course gained 3 lbs over the weekend because I was down. So I'm giving this a try because I don't back down :)

    So guys I'm not used to this app. I usually use my computer. If you would like to add me as a friend feel free to do so.

    Just got back from the gym. Jogged 15 minutes and did a strength workout for 15 aswell. I might need to try going to the gym earlier cause it was packed.

    Walked on the treadmill for 60 minutes and it was sunny so I walked to the park with my girls. We also did kids yoga on you tube. Love all the free fitness videos. Girls are excited to do another tomorrow

    Did 35 minutes of hiit/with strength training. Looking to do more pure strength building to get my muscles to help me burn calories. Ate 1003 calories of veggies and fruits with 20g of nuts. Hope to meet my goal of loss by the weekend.

    My challenge to myself is to do 5 minutes of planks by Friday

    I've not had a great week as I'm nursing a chest infection so no exercise done since last weekend. I might try the treadmill tomorrow and see how I go.

    March 22 - Managed to get in 15 minutes exercise today. I was surprised I was able to do that much because last night I fell on the treadmill... I have appointment tomorrow for xray of my back ... So today I just fought through the pain as much as I could... As far as my eating goes I am sticking to my 800 calories and doing great there...

    35 minutes of HIIT today and no planks outside of what was in the video....I may still get that in today going for atleast 1 to 2 minutes today.

    Do we have a specific weigh in day or we just posting our weight every Monday :p

    It would be best if everyone weighed in on Mondays but really its not a huge deal if you preffer another day.

    Hey guys so today wasn't a great day weight loss wise. Went to the Works with a friend and well the burger although I didnt finish it put me over my calorie limit. To top it off I didn't have the time to workout before work. Tomorrow I challenge myself to do a 30 minute jog and 30 minutes of strength training.

    20 minute walk on the treadmill 3mph speed.

    I could have gone longer but still nursing a chest infection. No point pushing it and being sicker for longer.
