    It looks like everyone is starting off this challenge very well. Unfortunately, I am extremely sick with a virus/bug & haven't been able to hold anything down for the last couple of days. I will be out of commision for a couple more days while I get some rest to fight this thing off. I'll be back to business & hitting my workouts hard in no time, I hope.

    Have a wonderful week all!!

    Hello ladies! I am down from last week, but up from Friday. I was super bloated this morning; I'm sure that had something to do with it.

    9/5 - 164
    9/12 - 163

    Looks like everyone else did really well also!!! Great job! :bigsmile:

    I think I'm the only one who gained :( It's my TOM so hopefully by next week I'll see my efforts on the scale!
    Could also be from doing 30DS/bulking up?

    9/5- 143.3
    9/12- 144

    Hi Ladies, well I hope you will let me continue with you. I officially feel off the radar for a couple of weeks. With school, crazy busy weekends, sick kid, and mommy I just wasn't able to get on and completely fell off track. I just looked at the last weigh in and I can't believe I missed the last week, it was great to see how well everyone did. Again I hope you will let me continue with you. I will weigh in tonight if that is okay, I really need the motivation and you all were great.

    Morning Mummies~ How is everyone? Whats new? Are you all fallling back into the school routine nicely? Colton has his 5th day today & he is really excited. Im so glad he love school, and I like the 3 hours i get to work out and spend 1 on 1 time with the baby. Today is day 9 of the shred for me. Almost a 3rd of the way through my 3rd round. Sad to admit it is the only cardio I have done though. What is this weeks challenge??? Oh Latoya, where are you?? I miss you!!!

    I agree, where is she?? we should probably come up with our own challenge and spread the word... should we aim for a cardio challenge like walking or running an extra 4 miles this week.... (meaning an extra workout to our regular routine and it can be done in any way, elliptical, treadmill, walking, stairclimber, etc) let me know what you think

    Yesterday was hectic and I forgot to post my weight. I'm at 141.7 - down almost a pound. Pretty good considering I had 2 days with just a couple hours sleep and then stayed up all weekend working 10am sat - 4am mon. (Don't ask...it happens about 3-4 times a year :)

    Mummies!!! Sorry I went MIA, parties and eating kept me busy and away from computer!! Good job ladies on losses!! Sad to say, Im up 2 pounds this week!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! Supposed to move away from the 150's not back toward :explode: :explode: :explode: Fun times this week meant food and more food. I am going to Vegas this week so i have to find a way to bring this scale down in the mist of partying. My baby turns 1 today :sad: :sad: bittersweet. no more newborn, so sad. More motivation to lose my baby fat, as i no longer have an infant. Lets do this mummies!!! Lets go with a challenge that Mimi mentioned: 4 miles. and because i am late, lets start today until next wednesday. On monday a new challenge will be posted as well. so for 2 days we will have 2 challenges. but as before we should aim to do each challenge continuously anyway. So this week we should try to:

    1. perform 2 hours of exercise (1st week challenge)
    2. run walk, bike, etc 4 miles (new challenge)

    9.5.11- 150.2
    9.12.11-152.2 :sad:

    Thanks Latoya!! I actually cheated and got on the scale today- I was down to 141.3! So I guess it was totally circumstantial bloat which just happened to coincide with my first Monday WI on this challenge.. glad that's gone and feeling a big difference.
    I guess my stats next week are going to look pretty extreme :ohwell:
    Hope everyone is having a great week!

    Happy Hump Day Mummies!!

    Everyone had such wonderful progress over the last week. You guys are rocking this challenge! I'm gonna have to work hard to keep up. :wink: I love the new challenge - get in 4 miles(run/walk/jog/bike/elliptical) in addition to our regular workouts along with 2 hours cardio. If we can all do this along with healthy eating choices, we'll post losses for sure next Monday.

    Thanks Latoya for coming back to us with your wonderful updated weight chart filled with motivation:flowerforyou:
    Happy Bday to your lil one. I am sure I will be a tiny bit sad when my youngest turns one in two months. Did you do a birthday party for him? We did Chuck E Cheese's last year for the oldest one. Don't beat yourself up about the small gain for this week. It WILL come back off - you already know how to lose the weight, just DO IT!!! Don't even think about the mistakes you've made, start completely fresh & think about what you can do TODAY to achieve your goals.. We all know that you can do this, and we're behind you 110%.

    Let's keep making great choices for the rest of the week! I know it's tough sometimes, but we ARE worth the extra effort:smile:
  • LT thanks so much for your lovely chart! :) I have a question for you ladies. I have a party to go to this weekend. It is a best friends birthday. I do want to have an alcoholic bevvy or too.. what would your suggestions be to handle both dinner and drinks?

    Have your drinks made 'light' - 1/2 the usual alcohol and keep a glass of water handy.
    Or get something strong that you'll nurse all night. I like to enjoy an Old Fashioned with plenty of water-drinking on the side.
    On food...just do the 4hr challenge the day before/day of and bank your calories. It's a party-enjoy some cake!

    Thanks for the chart Toya!! I love the smily faces, very encouraging! Happy 1st to your baby. Mine turns one in 2 months; I think I'm in denial. :sad: How are you celebrating? We are just starting to plan a party but don't have details yet.

    Well, so far my week is going good but I have some cheat days coming up. Tomorrow I'm going out to lunch with co-workers for my birthday to Cheesecake Factory. Then my birthday on Saturday and hubby is taking me out for a nice Italian dinner. Yummy!! :happy: :happy: I'm sure I will have some sort of cake also. Ugh!!! Oh well, it's my birthday. I deserve it! I'll get back on it Sunday! At least for a few days - then I am going out of town for a conference so will be staying in a hotel and eating out for 4 days! :ohwell: :frown:

    Well, I should be able to meet the challenges. I walked 2 miles tonight and will more than likely walk more by Saturday. 2 hours of exercise isn't a problem either. :bigsmile:

    Great job everyone!! Keep up the good work!

    Hey Ladies, just wanted to make sure I rejoined the group. I posted a message on Monday, but never got a response. I was part of the Labor Day Losers and went MIA for a couple of weeks. Sounds like everyone is doing well and working on making good choices with parties and such.
    As for drinks I second clear liquids and soda water or if you like margaritas, skinny margaritas are good.
    Latoya, happy birthday to your baby!!
