    :sad: I must say that I am very sad to get bumped on the first time I tried a challenge. Yes, i'm a big girl and wish you all the best. I was honest with myself. I counted my cardio exercise minutes which was 3 days of running 10 miles total for 90 minutes. I did not count the jumping jacks or crunches or swimmers press as total minutes. I didn't count Friday's activity. don't know if that would made a difference in how your calculations are arrived and to boot, I was down to 165 this morning - 4 pounds. report to you on Friday was 168.2. se la vi.

    Best to you all.:flowerforyou:

    Sorry, it probably would have made a difference if you counted all your exercise minutes.

    Feeling pretty good...I can't be upset with my loss but feel I am so close to my 1st mini-goal which is to be in the 100's that I need to set up my exercise. Loved the challenges this week and actually found a couple exercises that I have put into my daily routine. Looking forward to Week 3 if I have not be eliminated BUT if I do---I still plan to do the challenges because I like the extra UMPH they give me.

    Good Luck Everyone :)

    Week 2

    Height: 5' 8"
    Current Weight: 234.8
    Current waist inches: 46
    Current hips inches: 48.5
    Current wrist inches: 7.2

    Bonus Challenge Completed: Not This Week

    Under on calories and at or over water everyday.

    This was a really rough week. I am proud that I stayed under my calories, since in the past I would have just said forget it and let myself go for the week. I didn't lose any this week but didn't gain either. I am proud of this. Next week is looking up and am ready to back to the challenges and getting the weight off.
