Hey everyone, still not tracking everything just yet, but I will check in and keep you up to date and let you know I'm still here..yesterday I started off our new week with buying a winter running outfit at a local thrift store, tried it, on..and ran out in a 5 mile test run..looked so tiny at first, and thought there was no way..but it proved me wrong! So pretty much working on this week is some strength training, fruits/veggies, and work on my water! Theres just those cold days and drinking water makes me feel colder..but im working on it! Hope you guys, have a fab week! :bigsmile:0

1. Burn as many calories as you can!
2. Try to have the most Exercise minutes out of your team! So...encourage and challenge your team members. Send them messages with your number of exercise minutes.... Ask what they've done??
Okay..so with Keerti on our team..i tt's nearly impossible to beat her, especially since i have no access to a gym right now being at my sister's. However, i am not eating everything in site but i won't necessarily count my calories. By Tuesday, i will definitely be back in full swing! We have less than two weeks! Woo hoo!! Let's do this!!!
Add any personal challenges you want, but I think this "friendly" competetion may help us kick it in gear since we are nearing the end of our journey!

Thanks Laura!! I wish that was true. Having some problems with knee so not doing as much as I used too. But I always thought I couldn't do as much as you and Reene. Glad to hear that you are doing great on vacay too.
Hone stretch Girls !!! Let's do this and finish strong.

Good morning ladies!
I just wanted to say that i am proud of all of us that have committed to this challenge. It is so awesome to have a support group to help you through the tough times. I hope i get to see you all for the next challenge because you have inspired me and i hope i have done the same. I am coming home tomorrow so i will be working off any lbs i may have gained (hopefully not) on my trip and the 3.6 lbs i gained last week to make sure i still make my goal. I was at 11lbs lost until i gained those lbs back last week so i want to still lose at least the ten because that was my original goal (10-16).
Yay for us and good luck this week at weigh-in on Thursday!!!0 -
Well, I am stinking up the joint on this weeks challenges! I'm fighting this stupid cold so I got a pretty good workout in on Thursday (83 minutes for 752 calories) then nothing until this morning. Friday my body demanded a break, Saturday was the state swimming championship meet in Orlando so no time (son didn't do as well as he hoped with his own time and there were some unbelievably fast swimmers there!) and Sunday I still felt awful. Decided that since resting wasn't making me feel better, I'd get a workout in and try and sweat the darn cold out. Let me just say, spinning was tough this morning! I also pretty much ate what I wanted and didn't attempt to log. Gonna workout all week and I PLAN to eat well so hopefully my last weigh in on Thursday will be O.K.
Have a great day ladies and good luck!0 -
Well girls, I feel the same way Laura does!
I have so much enjoyed having this support group and getting to know ALL of you. I hope that in some way you have all gotten something from this group. I will be leading a New Year's group too. I'm still kind of thinking about how to do it, but I'm thinking the team member thing was pretty fun this time around so I'm planning on sticking with that.
If you choose to join the next one, it will be likely that you will have some different team members. Although, I must admit...I will have a hard time letting go of my purple girls! **Tears.....
As for me, I'm doing a sort of self evaluation. At this point I've lost only 6 pounds. I'm going to be pounding hard this next week and a half to meet my 10 pounds lost goal. (the original goal was 10 to 16 pounds!) Only at LEAST 4 pounds to go...and I'm pretty sure I can do it if I stay focused.
After this week's weigh in I will be posting the "NEW YEAR" challenge. This will allow time for people to join and for me to begin making teams, etc....
I would like to ask in advance for help explaining everything to the NEW people who will join. There will be LOTS of messages about where to post, where the challenges will be, where to weigh in,....etc.. So if you see those questions before me and answer them, I would SINCERELY appreciate your help!! :0)
You all already know you are awesome. I love you girls and HOPE that each of you continue to join us. Remember...I will also have a group for "maintenance" so that the girls who don't want or need to lose can still join us and keep up with the nutrition and fitness goals. .
LETS ROCK IT OUT THE NEXT WEEK AND A HALF!!!!!! Keep your head high ladies...don't look back....move forward and upward...(and the scale downward! haha)... Love you !! Tausha
Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, Philippians 3:13
BASICALLY SAYS...Forgetting my past and striving and working hard for the future things to come....
We can do this ladies. Don't live in your past mistakes, failures, or let downs.... Strive for a better today...a brighter tomorrow in all you do and give thanks for the successes.... thanks for the growing times... Thanks for all that makes your journey your own!
Love as always.
