    Can't open the spreadsheet at work so I'm hoping I'm in! This will be fantastic motivation. 1 lb down from my original weigh in. Need to get motivated with my exercise goal, though! Feel free to friend me on here.

    did a sneaky weigh and was pretty pleased, but won't log until saturday...hope the results still evident by then! Have failed miserably with my exercise goal so far this week, night shifts throw me completely...might have to do some laps of the hospital corridors tonight! was having major munchie cravings for naughty things yesterday and had to go to bed to stop from eating! Drinking heaps more water though- so pleased with that. hope everyone is having a good start to the week.

    If you need me to email it to you, let me know and I will! I don't know if someone else already has.

    Oh, they're whenever you usually weigh in, that way it's easier for everyone. Just as long as you weigh weekly.

    Checking in!!

    your post made me go check out the daily workout series by daniel miller. Awesome find, can't wait to try some of them out on my droid later!

    I'm a droid as well and was going to use these apps on my phone but when I read the reviews users referenced this series as a 'memory hog'. I'm sort of new to this world of apps as iI was a BB user for years, so that's why i went with the IPod apps. Seems to be working great though.

    This is for the members who signed up earlier. If your name is not on the spreadsheet (link at end of post), please join us next month during open sign ups.

    Please use this form when weighing in:

    Starting weight for challenge -
    Today's Date -
    Today's weight -
    Goal weight for challenge -
    Your personal goal -
    How you are doing on your personal goal -

    I keep a spreadsheet updated with our weigh ins and this will help me keep it up-to-date.

    Please weigh in weekly. If you miss TWO consecutive weeks, I will remove you from the spreadsheet. Even if you don't lose that week, please still check in using the form above.

    Feel free to chat & get to know each other! This is for support too, not just accountability. :-)

    If you have questions, please shoot me a message.

    Also, feel free to add me. :-)

    If you'd like to help me keep the spreadsheet up-to-date, please send me a message and let me know. I'd love to have one or two people to help with this since we have so many people this month.

    I have the spreadsheet set to sharing when you have the link. The link is below. If I screw up and you need me to edit anything for you, just let me know.

    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0ArKJ3eFANBc2dFA3Nm1xbWFWZlVtdW5fQnJta3k4SXc

    what is a bump and what is the best way to 'check in'? i see Ladies bumping to put all the info in one spot, would that be best?

    wednesday is my weigh in day...i find it easier than having to face anything on a monday morning when work is sure to implod.

    I've hit my first goal of 20 lbs!! I just am so pleased with myself. I think that I am starting to actually visualize what another 20 gone might look like. I've been +200 since 2000.

    Does anyone know of any simple strength exercises for the upper and lower body or site where I can see them being done? I have some DVDs, but they are way too advanced for me at my fitness level.

    My usual weigh-in day is Monday but there's no Monday in this first week LOL. Checking in now with my starting weight:

    Starting weight for challenge - 153
    Today's Date - 03-Nov
    Today's weight - 153
    Goal weight for challenge - 147
    Your personal goal - exercise 5 days a week (C25k, BFBM and additional cardio) and cut out the booze during the week
    How you are doing on your personal goal - hmmmm. Managed 2 out of 3 days of exercise so far but 3 days left so I can still meet that goal. Did have a couple of drinks last night but I was meeting up with my best mate after not seeing each other for 6 weeks, and I'd been really good since Saturday so I treated myself. Yeah I know, excuses excuses :ohwell:
