Sorry, for the delay I couldnt find the thread...got some pointers from MamaDee :-) Anyhoo, if it is okay with you guys I will post my gain or lost (hopefully lost) tomorrow. And I normally weigh on Mondays, so I dont know what in the world happened to me. But I am in you guys...I need to add a lot of you guys to my friendslist...if you want to make my life easier add me and I will ACCEPT :-)
I am happy about this challenge, is anyone doing anything different outside of their regular routine to kick it up??0 -
Today has been a vary good day. A vary relaxed day. Yesterday sucked so Im really glad today went so well!! Hope you all had a good day as well :-)

Morning ladies!
!!!!!! I'm still waiting for weigh-in info from erikasev, paulajfranco, alibreasy, sreimer07, Celine and jamadler2 !!!!!! Please can you add your info by the end of the day and I'll post our chart tomorrow morning, if I manage to figure out how to
Had a great exercise day yesterday, did kettlebells in the morning and went to boxing class at lunchtime. I actually felt quite sore this morning so had a lie-in! Will go to total body conditioning class at lunchtime though! I feel so much better in my skin for doing classes which mix up strength + cardio rather than just cardio. My skin is definitely more toned and I swear to god I saw a beginning of muscle appearing in my arm this morning!
Crikee, don't be discouraged, hang in there and your efforts will pay off! I haven't seen the scale moving this last week either but I am so much more comfortable in my clothes so we must be doing something right.
Congrats to everyone for checking in so far, whether you've had a loss or not, we're still on this website and exercising and eating well which is much better than slouching on the couch in front of the TV with seven bags of crisps!
Have a great Tuesday!
Joni :flowerforyou:
I'm so sorryyy! I struggle with these boards. Weigh-in for week:
Started at 203
This Monday: 200.1!! Three pounds down this week!
Goal for next Monday: 197
Lots of running lately so I think 3 lbs/week is totally do-able! 0 -
Morning ladies!
Here are our week 1 results. Congratulations to everyone but a special mention to :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: MamaDee :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: who had a whopping 1.7% loss this week!
My week is going well so far, I'm feeling really fit which is so the best feeling ever! I really do wonder why we boycot our bodies sometimes and go back to our old ways of eating because really, nothing can beat feeling healthy and fit.
Have a great day my lovelies
Joni :flowerforyou:0 -
Sorry everyone... I will not be late ever again...promise (well unless I'm dead or in the hospital) God forbid! Anyway, I am down 1lb.

*Great job on the chart,it looks great and wow what work you put into it! You Rock! ;-)
Oh yeah, just to mention: After getting off at 5pm yesterday I picked up my 8 year old from my grandmother's house, then my 17 year old from her job. Got home (praise God they ate) helped my 8 year old with homework (what in the world, her homework was hard and to think I am a college grad, geesh). Can you believe i mustered up enough energy to go to the gym at 9pm and walk on the treadmill for 65 minutes at a 10 incline the entire time 3.5 speed, I was pouring sweat! Then after that had the nerve to go grocery shopping. I am one pooped lady today! But I am eager to continue this journey with the rest of you!
Everyone have an awesome week! Let's go!0 -
Hello gals - Today was a very loooong day, have to get up a little earlier than i have been and drive into Calgary for a meeting for work today. It was a 2 1/2 hour drive and I hate driving and then of course driving home. I hate when I have to attend these meetings that don't pertain to me at all. Anyways - I never got any exercise in today because of my super early start today and because of it I feel blah
Back at it tomorrow morning with a run and then strength after work.
Hope you are all having a wonderful week so far and congrats to everybody on their weight loss!!
Joni - the chart looks awesome, great job :flowerforyou:0 -
Sounds like you had super busy days yesterday girls!
I AM NOT HAPPY. All week my weight has been going up instead of down, even though I'm eating clean and exercising. It's very frustrating. I'm like 4 pounds up this week! I know there's probably some very good reason for it like sodium or muscle or whatever but it's still no fun. It really pulls me down as well, where is happy Joni from Sunday?0 -
Joni, the chart looks AWESOME!! my goal is to be 145 by Christmas. Does your weight go up around your TOM? My weight is up right now and I seriously hope its because of TOM...I have no clue why!? Could my bad choices over the weekend just now be catching up to me?!
I hope everyone's week is going WONDERFUL! :flowerforyou: This is my last week before school starts, so i really am trying to enjoy it but just thinking of how busy I will be is STRESSING me out! one day at a time, i just have to keep reminding myself of that!! I did the 30 day shred yesterday for the first time in a long time---still one of my all time favorite workout videos (actually it is my favorite!!) I felt stronger while doing it, but it still kicked my butt!! I think I'll try and stick with it until the end of Sept before my Vegas trip!! :happy:
Alright girls, let's keep kicking butt and have some great losses Monday! WE CAN DO IT!!:happy:0 -
Hey all - Joni that sucks, I hope you manage to figure out why your body is hating you right now. Happy Joni will be back soon I am sure. Jamie, how have things been? Don't let school stress you out, I do know how you feel though. Take it one day at a time and things will work out. I have the 30 day shred DVD but have yet to try it out, I am enjoying my outside time right now while the weather is cooperating.
W7D2 of C25K for me this morning, it was a beautiful morning out and watching the sunrise in the morning is so beautiful and peaceful. Makes for a really long day but it is so worth it at the end of the day. I restarted my strength on Monday and have been really sore for the last couple of days so I was worried about running this morning with my legs so tired and sore but it wored out well and I think the run with my stretching afterwards really helped and things feel better.
Hope you all have a wonderful day :happy:0 -
Hey everyone! it's friday! I hope you all had a fabulous week! Anyone have any plans for the weekend?0

Hi All!
This week I'm working at the Iowa State Fair, writing some press releases. Any suggestions for somewhat healthy Fair food? I've stayed away from it for the most part, but it's getting hard to resist!
Looking forward to Monday's weigh-in though, I've run 14.5 miles this week! WOOOO!
Good luck everyone!

Corn? (without tons of butter)
Roasted/Grilled veggies on a skewer?
I don't know, I love giant turkey legs myself...0 -
Hi guys!!!! Well, I'm on vacation....again....this week. My family and I are camping, so I will not be able to weigh in on Monday... I will be carefull to what I eat tho! Anyway, I'll try to log my food as much as I can, but I can't promiss anything. I'd rather spend my time enjoying my daughter than the computer. Have a great week everyone, and I'll be back next Monday!
Celine0 -
Hey Celine - Hope you have a wonderful week camping, wish I could be doing the same thing
Finished week 7 of C25K this morning and will start on week 8 Monday morning. It was super tough this morning but I pushed myself through and finished, even though I really wanted to do some walking. Paden did wonderful again this morning as always. Tomorrow we are going to head out for a bike ride whenever we wake up just to get in a few extra calories for tomorrow.
How is everyone else doing? Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend!!!0 -
Hey Joni - I weighed today, my magic number is 168.2 - gained my 0.2 back. Which is crappy all around but I am thinking that maybe it is water weight and it is a samll amount so I am not overly excited about it.
Hope everyone else is having a wonderful weekend!!!0 -
Thanks Kendra! Love the new pic, very cute :-)
I've been really ill for the past 3 days, tummy not happy. So I really liked the number on the scale this morning but I have to be realistic, it's not going to stick, so I'm not going to weigh in this week.
Hope you all had a fantastic weekend! My best friend told me she's moving to Singapore, I'm a bit sad about that as I will really miss her. She'll be around for a few more months so I will take full advantage of that!
Celine, enjoy the camping!0 -
Hey Joni, I weighed today. Disappointing number after the week I had but it's okay... More motivation for next week. I did use two different scales, which I always feel makes a difference too. Does anybody take tier measurements? I think I may start doin that also - especially for weeks when I great but the scale does not move!
Starting weight 200
Today's weight 200.3
Have a good week everyone!0 -

Happy Monday everyone!
I weighed in yesterday morning at 181.1 to see how my week was going and then stood on those rotten scales again this morning at 183.4. Can't get my rings off this morning and they usually slide on and off fairly easy so I think it's water weight. That just stinks, but it will look good for niext week's weigh in.
Feel better Joni!
~Rebecca0 -
Well well well...here I am...weighed myself today and no change on the scale. But for the first time in forever I am not sad nor mad. I still feel great. I feel like I've lost inches and gained some muscle and had a nice little NSV. I slipped into a pair of jeans I have not been able to wear in years and they fit rather nice and I also had to add another hole to my belt, so I will not complain. I will push a little harder and do more cardio now (especially since I finally purchased a nice little ipod touch from craigslist and can finally listen to some tunes while walking/jogging).
Last week 216
This week (still 216)
Have a great week everyone!

Hey Ladies,
So I weighed in this morning at 186.6. I lost most of the water weight from TOM and bloating, but I'm still a bit disappointed in the number because it's .4 higher than I started the KCC challenge with. I want to up my water intake this week and maybe add more veggies to my lunchtimes, because I'm still wondering if it's partially water weight, or if I really gained. I also went to bed ridiculously giddy for some reason, and I'm still kinda happy right now, despite the scale, haha. Joni, I hope you feel better soon, drink lots of water and soup, and get plenty of sleep...sleep is magical =D Hope you all are having a wonderful morning, it's off to work for me!

Good Morning ladies! I weighed in this mornign at 230.4 just a little bit more and I will officially be out of the 230's !0

8/8: 157
8/15: 155.6
8/22:: 153 :happy: YAY!!!0 -
Well sadly I stayed the same - 173.7! I have got to get my butt in gear!!!0

Thanks girls, feeling much better now luckily! Pounds are back on though, being sick you makes you lose water really, and with TOM around the corner I am not sure what to expect for next week. The body fat % keeps going down on the scale though so I must be doing something right.
Congrats on all your amazing losses and THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTINUOUS SUPPORT :flowerforyou: If you haven't posted your weight yet and want to be included on the chart, please do so by tonight!
Just come back from an amazing circuit training class. My arms hurt so much they're shaking and I'm having trouble typing :-)
Have a great day!
Joni0 -
Joni glad you are feeling better, being sick is horrible.
I have been having a good week so far, didn't do my strength training last night and then I was disappointed in myself. Tonight though I will be doing my workout (interval and abs). I have my 3rd 5K on this Sunday and this time I may actually be able to run the whole thing or darn close to runing the whole thing. So I am super excited for that.
Everyone is doing such a wonderful job - keep up the great work and all the motivation is wonderful.0 -
Hi ladies I didnt weigh in this week. So you can out me as no change. Sorry so late. Been busy.

Bit of a slow week for most of us it seems but a standing ovation for :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: Kim, Mandie and sreimer07 :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: Well done girls, you'll have to tell us your secrets!0 -
Haha you wanna know MY secret? It's called taking care of 6 teenage girls & taking for meals only what's left after they eat :laugh:0

LOL mine is have your monthly friend come, completely flip out, drink more water than you thought humanly possible, and add in an extra workout that doubles as bonding time with your mommy =D I hope more falls off this week...*crosses fingers*0
