Friday weigh in report... my very first one!

current weight (05/06/09): 138
goal weight by August 1st: 134
exercise a day: 30 mins minimum.
I'm on my way with my first two pounds lost... and i already feel more fit!0 -
Looks like everyone is staying focused and seeing results!
I'm 30 years old, 5' 10" and my name is Shauna! I have a 3 kids, ages 4, 2, and 2 months.....I never lost the weight from the 1st couple, then I tried to get rid of it all before getting pregnant with the 3rd. I managed to lose 94 lbs before getting pregnant and was only up 28 lbs from that at the start of this challenge!
Start weight for this challenge 222lbs
Last week 220lbs
This week 219 lbs
Goal 180 lbs
Got in 6 x 45 minute workouts this week, and I burned over 3000 calories....with 3 kids at home, I know I won't always find this much time to workout, so I make sure that I really push myself when I get the chance. You have to make every workout count!!!
Only lost a pound this week, but I'm feeling tighter and stronger, so I'm okay with that! I know it'll happen!
Keep up the great work everyone!0 -

sw june 3/09 259.0
cw June 5/09 256.0
goal weight Aug 1 230.0

My oldest daughter (about to be 12) started track last year and is now in fabulous shape. I tell her I wish I looked to good. She frowns when I do extra snacks, so I'm doing this for me and the ladies in my life!
GOOD LUCK TO ALL!0 -

Hi and thanks to everyone (new and on week 2) who logged in and recorded your stats.
I have to say I did think the response today would be much greater and am let down by the lack of drive out there.
Seems we get out of the gate with such strong convictions and promises and then what takes over- Life -which we can choose to translate into excuses. There are none any more for those of us who are really serious about our weight loss.
We are already into the sixth month of the year. How many of us have made those resolutions to really take control and conquer the demons. I did and guess what...in 6 months I have lost more weight (all be it 4lbs) on this challenge than I possibly hoped for.
So does this work? Yeah, it does, but only if we are in it together FOR THE DURATION.0 -
I hope its not too late to join in (just joined the site today)!

Too many times I have joined challenges and fallen short. NOT this one. Thanks for posting this, I think we all need a reminder of how positive we need to be, and follow through with our promices!0 -
I have seen alot of posts about the "30 day shred" what is that?0

Assuming its the same one I know of, 30 day shred is a program designed by Jillian Michaels to blast away the last 10-20 pounds and get you ripped in 30 days. Theres a 30 day shred DVD and a book both by Jillian.
I haven't seen the DVD but the book is full of recipes (tells you what to eat every day for 30 days) and excerizes to do for the month.0 -

Yep, Lizagna is correct. I just started the 30 day shred yesterday. It's intense!!! but sooo fun. Jillian Michaels is very demanding but extremely motivational. I highly recommend it.0
