    Hi All,

    Mind if I join you? I'm really looking for more people to keep me accountable and this looks like a great group!

    I started in January at 263, and last friday I weighed in at 255. I will just be ecstatic to get under 200, but my big long term goal is around 160.

    I LOVE lifting heavy weights but can't stand cardio. So right now my goal is to burn at least 500 calories doing cardio in addition to any weight lifting I may be doing each day.

    Exercise wise, I am completing the Chalean Extreme program and am in the last week of the second phase. Today I did weights for about 35 minutes and for cardio I did a Turbo Jam dvd for about 50 (and burned 650 Calories doing it!)

    Dani

    Welcome Dani!!

    WTG Pink!!! That is my favorite part of losing weight. Clothes getting losser and getting to go buy some new ones. Keep up the great work everyone!!

    I am super excited I just joined a gym on Tuesday.:happy: So I did the elliptical for 20 minutes on tuesday at level one and did 20 more minutes last night at level two. I know 20 minutes isn't that long but I am working my way up. Didn't really realize how out of shape I was:grumble: . My goal is to be at 199 by april 19. I know that is a tough goal but I know with this site and the support I can do this.

    This challenge really indicates how much more specific strength training I need to do!

    This week I have hardly done any.

    Sun - 15 mins
    Tues - 15 min
    Thurs - 45 mins

    Check in weight for today - 93.2kg (205.5lbs)

    I didn't set up more goals, but my goal is to lose 1kg/week so that is what I am sticking with. I had a dissappointing week last week, I did all the right things and my scales stayed put. But they are finally moving down again so I am more upbeat.

    oh i feel like i'm such a slacker on all the challenges and i need to start working out its totally my fault but i've been finding it a little hard to find time
    i work until 5 i come home planning on working out but than i see something that needs to be cleaned so i clean it than my husband gets home so i cook dinner than i clean more or play with my dogs
    and this week has been harder because i'm on that time of the month and i don't know about anyone else but it has been making it harder for me to work out
    i am going to do better i promise my selt :wink:

    Welcome, Dani!

    While I didn't do any strength training on Wednesday, I made up for it today by doing 70 minutes of the Cathe Muscle Max workout. It's all strength, weights and abs, but really gets your heart pumping, so it's like getting a strength and cardio workout at the same time -- and it burns a lot of calories, too. I like that!
