Hi gals:

I am really struggling and feel like I am just tanking lately (actually most of this month). I keep trying to out exercise my bad diet and it is not working. I would hate to see where I would be at were it not for all of my obsessive exercising. I was actually going to take a break today but ate such crap that I felt guilty and went and did a day of c25k. Feel like all I do is complain on here....sorry about that!

I know several of you are doing the C25K training....curious do you stick to a certain time or distance. I went a full 5 k today and it took me 40 minutes. Not sure if I should be sticking to the guides 20 minutes or covering the full distance.

Our group seems to be MIA so I hope that everyone is doing well and sticking to their goals. Seeing everyone making it works, makes me want to keep trying! Thanks!!

Hi there,
I'm not new to this site but am definitely new to this group. I've seen a lot of posting from the members who are being so supportive of each other and I wish to join in. Can I? I have been in this site trying to loose weight and I managed to in the first few months. However, I have been lacking on the weight lost due to the long holidays and celebrations which got me to add on 2 kg. I would love to loose to my target level and really need the support.

I'm so excited! I hope everyone will join in. I just made a month worth of mini goals for a daily challenge!

Monday - weigh in! 2 miles of anything!
Tuesday- 40 rear delt flys
Wednesday - 60 side jumps
Thursday - burn 500 calories
Friday - 25 push ups anyway you can
Saturday - jog in place 15 minutes
Sunday- 40 sit ups, 30 squats, 20 jumping jacks

Check in daily! Stay with in calories! Complete mini challenges and watch our fat melt away! Not to mention have the most wonderful group supporting along the way!

WE ALL CAN DO THIS!

SEE YOU ALL IN THE MORNING! :0)

Welcome lgord! Weigh in tomorrow ;0)

I'm in....I think I did much better when I was actually checking every day with everyone! Kept me much more accountable.

1-Miles--12 miles for the day with spin class and my walk to work. Guess that covered the mini challenge too.

2-calories-well so far so good. I have logged everything I brought to work but it is the night times that get me.

Starting weight--160.4 (went up a couple of pounds from the start of last week-told ya I had a rotten week!)

Good luck everyone!!!

Also I plan on making a group so they don't cancel our thread like last month!

Good morning, and welcome to the new people. Keep coming back.

Penny, glad you are giving us a kick in the pants. I am up a couple pounds, and need to make more effort. Also, I got the results from my cholesterol test last week and those darn LDLs have popped up again. I can't take statins because of the muscular side effects, but I've been controlling it mostly with diet and exercise for a couple years. I took my eye off the ball. I'm dissapointed in myself for letting that go. On my December test my LDLs (the bad fat) was 108; last week it was 142. I'm trying to get it below 100. So, I will be getting tested again at the end of March, and I will report that to you. Sorry about the rant, but this is related to my weight loss and management goals and my health.

So...
CW 145 (I don't like my number either. I want to get to 130) I'm only 5'3

Have to admit I cringed a little at the thought of 100 miles in a month, but on thinking about it, I have been wearing my pedometer, with a daily goal of 10,000 steps, which is 5 miles. If I were to get 10,000 every day, I'd have the 100 miles in 20 days. I can do this! I have written down the exercise schedule so I won't have to get online and waste 45 minutes "quickly" checking what to do next.

Will check in later.

Awesome revamp Penny! Love the idea of doing 100 miles in a month. I need to keep logging in because I am staring to get a bit lazy! You are all doing so well but I have a feeling everyone is going to do even better this month!!

CW: 161.8 My girlfriends were up this weekend so had a bi of a splurge but this can soon be fixed!
2 miles- Completed by walking/ dancing around uni
Calories- haven't logged in yet but will probably be over
Water- A few more glasses and I will be done!

Have a great evening everyone x

Hey Everyone! I'm new to this website and I love this Challenge thingy!

My goals:
1. Drink 2, 24oz water bottles during school
2. Actually try at gym (lol) and workout after school
3. No more fast food, or going out to eat at all! Put the money I would spend on food in my piggy bank and spend it on a new clothes for my new body in the future

Definitely up for the challenge!

1.) stay under calorie goal everyday
2.) Drink over 64 oz of water daily
3.) keep my carbs low and my proteins high
4.) never add salt or sugar to meals

I want in!

My goal is 8 glasses of water per day
Work out 5-6 days a week (training for a 5k run)
Stay within my daily calorie allowance and eat healthy foods (not processed)

I have 13 more pounds to go until I reach my healthy weight range!!!! But I still would like to be 10 pounds lower then that, 145, but I'll take just being in my healthy range for now, haha
