Its so lovely to see everyone signing in and saying hello!!

Welcome onboard everyone!!

I have got to get serious.
Last October I was on holiday in Malta and was in pretty good shape, I worked hard to get in good shape for my bikini holiday with my fiance but after new year we have both got a bit relaxed, My fiance has given up smoking and we have both been busy with doing jobs in the house and not really been paying as much attention to our eating and exercise.
We hav another holiday booked for july, I need to be bikini fit again for that but want to be in better shape asap as I feel awful with these extra few pounds on and my clothes are too snug.
I love turbo jam but have found it hard to learn all the routines as I have never done them enough to learn them so I am hoping this challenge will not only get me back into daily workouts but also teachme the routines so I can enjoy the classes more.
I want to be able to do each workout confidently without making any mistakes.
My son, Jack -7, laughs at me doing my turbojam but hey ho!! I still need to do it and when I am better at it maybe he won;t laugh so much!!! :laugh:

I need to also make sure I stick to 1200 cal MAXIMUM per day, I keep going over this and eating too much and also the wrong things. So from here onwards 1200 MAX.
Plus 5 turbo jams per week, pluys walking, running, bike riding and other DVD's once I have got more used to daily workouts again.
I also NEED to banish chocolate.
NO MORE FROM TODAY.
I simply can not stop where I want to with chocolate, chocolate biscuits or anything with chocolate in it. Chocolate flavoured things are ok, its just anything tht has real chocolate in it. I need to give it up and choose healthier treats.

I have done this before. I can do it again.

WE START TODAY!!!!

So....... This morning I got my turbo jam workout in, all bit it a bit later than I hoped but I did it and still got my son to school on time.
Now work all day and a few hours extra this evening too. long day. But I have promised now it is ''summertime'' and we have some longer evenings and more daylight that I will start walking running and bike riding with my son in the evenings.
I am looking forward to this, I have missed that and it'll be great for me and my son to have that extra time together.

Today I must not go over my 1200 cals, perfect logging and do a walk this evening too!!

Good luck everyone :drinker:

Welcome along everyone!!!
So nice to see some new comers too, keep signing up if you want to join us do!!

Challenge starts today. 6 weeks non stop turbo jam, 5 workout per week minimum, any workout you like.
BTW you can do turbo fire if you prefer.

Team your workouts with a sensible diet of your own choice and calorie allowance.
Our goal is to stick to our food targets and do at least 5 TJ/ TF workouts per week.

I also weighed in this morning so I can keep track of my weight starting again today. I will reset my weight counter each monday and weigh daily.

Taking measurements is also very useful as we sometimes won;t drop weight but might drop an inch or two and after all its about looking and feeling better not just what the scale says.

Lets do it!!!!!

I'm looking forward to my walk tonight, tomorrow may be a run!!!

Have a good one people xxx

TOR!!! :flowerforyou:

We have a great group coming together now!!!

This is excellent :happy:

Hello to all the new members signing up, I'm excited to see you all here.
Can't wait to see our result and how we have all improved in 6 weeks time, don;t forget to weigh in today and measure if you can.

This is a lovely group now, we have quite a few people which is AWESOME!!!

Any more new comers please do keep on signing up, more the merrier!!!

This is going to be a wicked challenge, I feel quite determined to get a early night and be up bright and early tomorrow for my workout!!

I have done well with the food today, logging 100% perfectly exactly what I ate, however it shows me just how much I have been over eating lately, literally anytime I feel hingry or felt like having something I would pretty much have it, and I have gone an undone all my hard work from last year, I am now then biggest I have been for two years.
Today has shown me howmuch I pick at food and I really need to restrict my eating to meals rather than nibbling throughout the day on whatever and not having proper meals.
I find the nibbling impossible to log too as I can't remember it all.
So learn curve number one understood, so lets see if tomorrow I can improve on that.
Today I was ober by 150ish cals, over my 1200. But under including exercise, but my rules are 1200 max. Idon;t want to eat back exercise cals as I know this does me no good in the long run, I need to plan sensible meals within 1200 and that is enough for me, I am only 5ft 1!!

So BRING ON TOMORROW :drinker:
