Hi everyone. I am new to the site but I have honestly fallen in love with it. I have joined several groups and I am using them all for motivation but now I feel like I want to create my own OPEN group.
I made a bet with my Dad to see who could lose the most weight by October 1st so I want to see how many others want to help me with this. By october 1st my goal is to be about 152-154. That is about 30 pounds. This group is open for all. I hope we all can do this together and have fun.
To join the group just answer the following questions. We will weight in every Monday until October 1st.
Start- 182(as of the 8th)
Goal- 154-152
Height- 5'6.5

Yeah! Count me in. I'm trying to hit a loss of 10lbs/mo (which is turning out to be surprisingly hard, after my 1st 2 weeks - despite being STRICT about my diet and going to the gym EVERY day!)... We're going on vacation 8/19 - 9/4, so this is going to be TRICKY - no gym, but a LOT of walking.... Hopefully, this group can help keep me on track! Good luck to us!

Okay Ladies.
Frist day of challlange and I already have done HORRIBLE. I ate candy, popcorn and pasta-_- but hey we all have set back right?
I want to hear what everyone did today and what they ate todayyy. Feel free to share stories and why you are motivated to lose weight.
thanks ladies!0 -
I'm pretty bummed right now. I rolled over in my sleep this morning and woke up to a loud snap and a shooting pain through my neck and back. I'm not sure what I did, but now I can't move my head at all without feeling like I'm going to get sick from so much pain. I want to workout, but I can't move. Ugh! I hope this pain goes away asap!0
-
Gosh that is horrible!
I would take some aspirin and sleeep on it!
FEEL BETTER0 -
Omg, Heather - are you ok?? I hope your pain has gone away...
I managed to hit the gym this morning - the 15th day in a row... Didn't eat most of the day and was RAVENOUS by dinner! Ate a ton of protein, but stayed at my calories... Anxious because I'm working out HARD, but not losing well.. And stressed about going on vacation Friday (for 2.5 weeks)... No gym, not really cooki g (maybe the last week).... Stressed that I might gain if I don't work out every day.... Hope I haven't set myself up for failure by working out every day... But motivated to do my best to keep it up (when I'm home)! :-)0 -

I feel a lot better now, but it still hurts if I turn my head too far to the right/ left or up/ down. Bleh.0 -

Hi all,
I've just seen this post. I would love to join your October Challenge. I'm new to this site and have only signed up today. I weigh 154lbs and my goal is to get down to 133ils by October. I'm also 5ft 1 inches. I've been a yo yo dieter for as long as i can remember and would like to put a stop to that. Exercise wise I've been currently doing the 30 day shred exercise dvd for an hour five days a week and have seen an inch melt off from my waist and half an inch from my thighs, hips and arms but no luck on the scales so far. Has anyone else done the shred? I'm also planning on doing a half marathon in October with my boyfriend. Hope everyone is well. Best of luck.

I pushed through the 30DS today despite my neck/ back pain. It actually made it feel somewhat better or maybe it just distracted me from the pain? haha I'm not expecting a loss on the scale tomorrow though. I haven't really been losing weight lately. I'm still losing inches though, so that's great!0

I want to try!
CW = 206
GW (Oct 1) = 1900 -
@ linbee83 I would definatly give it a go. Its great for getting the body toned. @heather7marie lol. the shred is intense. I thought my arms were going to fall off one point during the plank and leg lifts on level 3. I never thought i would seat and scream so much. But it is definatly worth it. I'm going to keep going with it and try out Jillian Michaels No more trouble zones and Banish fat boost metabolism. I used to go to the gym but with rising membership fees i had to find another way to keep fit. I'm good with the exersise but its food thats the problem though lol. Best of luck ladies.0
