    i want to get a HRM so bad... but im too cheap i cant spend 100.00 on a watch!!

    I slacked this weekend, didnt do anything saturday or sunday... will do cardio max tonight probably..

    With a Polar F6 you'll get a chest strap too!! :laugh: LOL!! Seriously though, it's great!! You'll love it! Also, I love your little munchkin!! What a cutie!!

    I broke down and spent the 30 on the reebok one.. I hope it is worth it...
    Thanks about my pumpkin... he has got the fatest cheeks, i could just bite them!!!

    I hope that you're happy with your purchase. Keep your receipt though, I love that Walmart will take anything back! (just in case you're not) Did you get it at Walmart?? Why am I thinking that?? I don't see where & if you said?? ... I guess because I buy everything there I just figure that everyone else must as well!! LOL!!

    Is this your first pumpkin?? Be sure to take lots & lots of pictures!! Those scrumptous cheeks won't last!! They lose that baby look way too fast!

    mamakisses sounds good... I myself have fallen off the biggest loser wagon lately... and i am the one that started this thread :embarassed:
    I think others are doing something like this already... because i keep seeing threads for black team, red team, etc... but i never read them because its too many pages for me..

    How do you want to do it? when should we start.. I really dont have all that much to lose, but again more motivation for me to work out..

    Sounds great! I do belong to another BL team (blue) & we weigh in every Wednesday. I don't know how much longer that challenge will last.

    I say we start soon!! Maybe after the dreaded weekend, we could post our start weights & then report every week as to what our results are. What day should we make our weigh in?? Also, it'd be great to report here often about or workouts, what we're doing, how we're doing, tips, questions, etc. I think too, that since we're all into the BL we could talk about the show, the workouts, the trainers & anything else BL!! But, that's just my humble suggestion.

    Any other thoughts??
  • Monday is a bad weigh in day I do believe cause yup we all tend to slip a bit on the weekend...... or maybe that is incentive to NOT slip......?

    I think we should start as so as possible

    I will if you all want use google spread sheet to log all our info where we can go look intead of having to run through the pages here?? We can put our weights measures and times? Does that sounds good....?

    Ok so if that sounds good Ive made up a page like what we could use... if this sounds like a plan I would need emails to send the page so only the group can view our page?

    Oh and should we post before and after shots in the start then like a month in?
    The show chat is an awesome idea, I just recieved a bl book Id love to share and recieve info !!

    What do you think ??
    What should we call our selves??

    Hello everyone.
    I am new to myfitness pal, and I am on my way to a better me. I just ordered the 30 day shred to see what that can help me with.

    I donthave a gym close to me since i live in the country, but i do have a pilates machine, a treadmill, a ball, some hand weights, and a yoga mat.

    I hate the treadmill...... but I am going to learn to love it.

    I would love to join a team. I expect my dvd's to arrive next week and I am going to buy a HRM.

    Do you suggest any?

    all these ideas sound great.. i was thinking last night i want my hubby to take a picture of me in my bikini, once a month so i can "See" my progress...

    I have never used google spredsheet before, so that sounds cool and interesting..

    we can be something like the purple polkadots or something silly.. instead of just a plain color

    my email is this screen name at yahoo.

    I am getting excited... and am ready to start!!
    RIght now i weigh everyday, but i only track my weight in here on Tuesdays.. but it doesnt matter whatever yall want!

    aghhh i cant figure out how to just quote the last part... Oh well ...i got the one off of buy.com that was on here the other day.. I too shop almost exclusively at walmart!

    He is my first, but my 3 step children also live with me they are 14,12,10. Had them for about 5 years.. and they grow so fast too.. I take pictures of all of them any chance i get!!
    My baby is at 22 pounds and one week shy of 6 months.. He is a monster!!!

    OMG!! How sweet!! My 1 year old was 20lbs at 9 months. She hasn't had a 1 year check up yet so I'm curious to see how much she's grown since!!

    Oh, I think I saw that one too! Did it come with the chest strap?? If I'm thinking of the right one....

    BTW - when you quote just go back in & take out what you don't want & leave in what you do (highlight & delete) , but be sure that you leave a {quote] before the portion & after. You'll see that anytime you quote someone. I just played around with it & it seems to work well!

    I'm excited about our new team!! It should be fun!! I too have never used a spreadsheet! I'l send my email address to crystal directly. Any tips or directions on how to use the spreadsheet would be appreciated!! I'd hate to "crash" the whole system!! LOL!! .. Thanks for setting it all up by the way!!

    So excited!! :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

    how about MFP HEALTH ATTACK FOR A NAME???

    Sounds good to me! I'm not very picky though! I like the purple polka dots idea too!! Boy, those names are really at two ends of the spectrum arent' they!! LOL!! :laugh:

    So, where is the spreadsheet? I must've missed that post. My starting is 169.

    I got a new BL dvd yesterday!! I wanted the 30 day shred but it was sold out!! The only one they had left was the BL workout 2. It's pretty fun! Alot of leg & booty work for the ladies segment, which is always good! I went ahead today & ordered the 30 day off of walmart.com. They'll send it site to store in about a week. So, until then, I'll just be rotating my current dvd's out with my treadmill.... when I'm feeling better, that is!!

    Well, gonna go get some rest!! Good night people!! :drinker:

    Saw these videos at Walmart yesterday for $10. (in the sporting goods section). However I was a little dismayed at Jullian. Last month on the show she was talking about how much she hated working outside the gym and doing the aerobics thing. She will suck it up to make some money on a video, but will b!tch the whole time she does it with her team.

    How's everyone doing with the bl workouts? I did 30 min of bl and 25 min of curcuit training. Now I'm getting readdy for another bl workout. Have I got some competition here?
