    Checking in: I lost 1.3 lbs this week! Yay!

    I weighed in on my wii fit, and I am about 1/2 pound away from my mii shrinking, I think. I hope that next week I will have that as my NSV!

    This is my motivational quote for the week: "It does not matter how slowly you go, so long as you do not stop." -Confucius

    Checking in: lost 4lbs... all whilst being sick. It confuses me though, i didnt work out for the better portion of a week and yet i lose more weight than i have since i started... not sure how that balances out but whatever.

    Weekly Goal- Its really 2 goals... 1) Do 20 mins of upper body weight lifting at the gym (*so far i have just concentrated on cardio and fat burn*) 2) 75 crunches a day, i saw higher up on the thread someone wanted to do 200 a day, well, i am very confident that i CAN NOT DO THAT... so i will make a goal for myself that is... well reasonable for me.

    Good luck everyone!

    Hey everyone! Glad to hear you all are doing so good with your weight loss!

    I think my goals for this week will be to continue with the water, and 30DS everyday.

    Small steps!

    Oh i forgot about my weigh in, i didnt lose any but didnt gain either so I'll take it. My goal is to keep up with my water of 100 oz a day to help curb cravibgs and to keep moving everyday. I coach wheelchair basketball and get in a chair and play with our kids. Pushing yourself in that chair is a great arm, shoulder, back and ab workout, plus great cardio, but i only do that once a week so i have to keep moving the rest of the week. Everyone is doing so great it is motivating to stay with it. Have a great week everyone!

    Hi All,

    I'm down one pound but still haven't been consistent in getting the water in. So for week 2, I'm working on consistently getting at least 64 oz of water in plus working out at least three times this week.

    On a happier note, I saw some people last week that I haven't seen in a couple of months and they all noticed that I had lost weight and were very complimentary. That's definitely motivation to keep going!

    For me I would have to say:

    1. Smile
    2. Eyes
    3. Butt
    4. Nose
    5. Freckles
    6. Lips
    7. Toe nails (just did the newspaper techinique on them and looks so cool!)
    8. Legs
    9. Height
    10. Cheeks

    This week I am going to get into the gym three times and not just run in my neighborhood or do home exercise videos. I feel getting in the gym will help with my motivation and confidence issues. I am exceeding my water goal each day! And I staying under my net calorie goal. I will keep doing these first goals and keep building up more and more goals, which will become new habits. :)

    Weight Check In: No loss, but that's okay :)

    Goal: Stay under calorie goals all week, and keep going on the water challenge (not going well but the week is not over!)

    10 things I like about me physically
    1) My long hair (getting ready to donate it to Locks of Love, probably about 2 more months of growth)
    2) My big feet (good for balance)
    3) My flexibility (hooray for yoga!)
    4) My calves
    5) My shortness (I like that my husband can rest his chin on my head if he's standing behind me)
    6) My smile
    7) My eyes
    8) My profile
    9) My clavicles (collar bones)
    10) My quads (getting stronger!)

    Is it too late to join in?

    I am 26 and from New Zealand, scary as it is my stats are below:

    S/W 215
    G/W 176

    Reason for wanting to lose the weight/tone up: I want me back, happy, healthy and confident me. Rightly or wrongly alot of that is driven by how i look/feel physically. So here goes my "hot in time for new years eve challenge"

    ten things I like about me: hmm i can do three, need to think on that one.

    This is a hard one, but here it goes!

    1. My hair.
    2. My butt (hah!).
    3. My small feet and the way they look in heels.
    4. My skin tans easily.
    5. Dark eyes.
    6. I like that my body allows me to be athletic, does that count?
    7. This is so hard!
    8. My eyebrows are decent...
    9. I like my back (especially if I could get rid of these love handles!).
    10. My face... I look like my mom.

    Gah, that was not easy! But I'm glad I did it!
