I am so excited to be doing this challenge with you Ladies. I am hoping through this we will lift one another up and help motivate each other. This Challenge will last 9 wks, from Sept 26th till Dec 5th!!!!! All I ask is that you check in at least once a week. Try to stay as active as possible. I also encourage you to take before photos and measurements. Once a week we will weigh in on Mondays in the am. I will need your updated weight that afternoon to add to the spreadsheet. I will personally be taking my measurements every 2 weeks. I would love for you ladies to join me in this as well. I will add it to the spreadsheet if you would like and track it every 2wks for you. Each day there will be a challenge and weekly goals. Please set your goals below. If at anytime you feel you need to leave, please inform me and I will remove your name from the list. My hope is that we will all do this and stick to it. I will also begin an new thread each week so these do not get overwhelmed with replies. I will send you the links. Also if you have any suggestions for challenges....please message me. I want mental and emotional challenges!!!!

We will have a weekly STAR!!!! The person who lost the biggest % of weight that week. We will also have a winner at the end of the challenge for overall weight-loss and goals achieved! I will get this person a Shape or Fitness magazine subscription for a yr! If you are interested...before and after photos with the dates are required. I know it's not much but it's fun to work towards a prize.

    Im not at the fitness level to jog 3/4 miles but I will aim for 2 and walk the rest. Also I dont have a pull up bar so I will find an exercise to replace that move.

    I weighed myself here at home (on the wii) and it shows I lost 5.5lbs! I go to the dr next monday, so I will be able to see how accurate that is (my beginning wt was done at the dr, too). So, I am now 123lbs, but haven't lost any inches yet :/

    I did well last week, until the weekend. But today I'm back on track and trying to log food again. I managed all challenges until the weekend too - gosh weekends are awful!

    Jess, I'm so glad to be a part of this challenge!

    I weighed in Monday morning at 165 lbs. So I lost 1 lb. over the week. The weekends seem to be a problem for me also, I get a chance to eat out or I stay at home where the food is more accessible. Hope everyone did well this week & looking forward to the challenges of tomorrow.

    I didn't lose any weight last week. :( Still 179 which sucks so bad! I"m still kicking myself in the butt that I even gained so much weight in the first place but I feel motivated! I will be way more diligent about logging my food this week. I am continuing Ripped in 30 and I am going to pick up running a few miles a day about 3-4 nights a week.

    Tuesday- 30 Pushups
    Wednesday- 80 Squats/30 lunges each leg
    Thursday- Jog 3 to 4 miles
    Friday- 8 pull ups, 40 pushups
    Saturday- 50 jumping jacks, 20 burpees, 40 squats
    Sunday- Jog/walk 4 miles

    For some reason it won't let me edit my last response so I can just check off today's challenge... Anyways, I did Ripped in 30 week 2 day 1 this morning. Then tonight I ran for 45 min and did my 30 push ups. My boys did the push ups with me and ran 10 min with me! :) I love when my family takes interest in being active! I feel amazing today!! I'm drinking water like a mad woman today too! haha

    Lost just over a lb this week and have decided to target at least 1 lb per week instead of 2. My body didn't adjust well to trying to stay around 1200 calories with all the exercise I've been doing even after eating back exercise calories. I think 1 lb a week will be much more manageable and enjoyable for me. It's all about sustainable losses, right?? Exercise was on target with 3600 cals per week and plenty of sleep. So far, so good!
