    Can I join in ? I need some support. I have a bad habit of eating well one day, then bad the next, and so on. I like the 30 day exercise part too.

    I have the same CW at shannarose...158 and my GW for now is just to get under 150.

    Good luck everyone.

    I'd love to join if I could!

    What are the "rules" of the group? Are we just eating well, exercising every day and reporting back at the end of the day? If so, I think that's a great idea! Answering to someone other than yourself regarding fitness and exervise is a great motivator.

    I happened to do really well yesterday (the first day) so this works out well!

    Monday: Ate around 1500 calories.
    Exercise: Worked SUPER hard at the gym, ran 2.5 miles in 30 minutes (not awesome, but not terrible!)
    Used the Arctrainer for 20 minutes.
    Used free weights for arms and did crunches for about 10 minutes.
    Burned a total of approx. 400 calories.



    S.W.-182
    C.W.-176
    Mini Goal by 5/14-166 (TEN POUNDS in a month, think I can do it?!)
    Ultimate Goal-150


    Keep up the good work everyone!! :happy:

    I'm doing good on my eating, and getting ready for day 2 of exercise right now. The eating is a challenge - baking cupcakes for my mom's 80th birthday reception - 50 last night and hopefully 50 tonight. They sure do smell good, and the batter is very tempting!

    I'm down to 2/40 on my workouts, but I had a really bad lunch out (like 1000 cals) yesterday. I made it up with exercise but feel so sick for eating so poorly. Well today its out shopping with the girls, so I need to make some better choices. Wish me luck and I'll be 3/40 by the end of the day!

    Day 2 (yesterday) wasn't awesome for me in terms of eating. I had a HUGE dinner of about 1,000 calories but I made up for it (kind of) by hitting the gym.

    I ran 2 miles and did the stair climber for 15 minutes.
    Total Calories Burned: 350

    It doesn't excuse my poor eating habits, but I'm happy to partially compensate by going to the gym.

    Hope everyone had a great 2nd day! Here's to the third! :drinker:
