Weeks 1-2 Lose an inch on your stomach

Hi everyone! Day 1, week 1 of the Lose an inch on your stomach challenge.

Firstly let me say it is weigh in day for me and I lost 2lbs this week. Good luck to everyone else!

My stomach measurements are:-

Waist:- 30"
Belly Buttom 'girth':- 34"
Hips:- 38"

I may be slightly out on these as I just useding masking tape and a ruler to "measure". I will get myself a proper measuring tape during lunch and repost any inaccuracies!!!

How I propose to lose the inch in two weeks is by carrying on with my fitness 'regime' which consists of doing spin everyday and using some other gym equipment that I fancy haha and also by doing just 30 crunches/sit ups or whatever you want to call them a day. I'm looking to do 30 for the first few days and will add 10 each time I feel able.

I'm also going to try some swimming.

May the best princess win! ;-)

Anyone who wants to post what they're doing / tips / advice / motivation about this please feel free during these two weeks. I look forward to hearing from y'all!

    My weigh in is normally friday but i did it on saturday and after 5 weeks on a plateau I lost 2 lbs, i was so happy :bigsmile: I also lost an inch from my waist! I hope I can repeat the sucess this week. I will carry on with my normal routine getting to the gym 3-4 times a week. i think i'll weigh in on saturday again though because it's my sisters birthday on thursday and we're going out so i'm likely to be bloated on friday! I'll post my measurements up in a bit. Good luck everyone (oh and i took my before photos this weekend too!)

    Week one ...... here we go ......

    Weight: 142 (still - third week staying the same ..... UGH!!)
    At bellybutton: 31.5"
    3 inches below bellybutton: 35"
    6 inches below bellybutton (hips): 39.5"

    My goal is to do ab work daily ..... crunches, reverse crunches and obliques. Of course along with some type of cardio (usually treadmill).

    I also had my husband take a picture of me last night - boy oh boy - if that's not motivation!! There is absolutely no way at this point I will step foot in public wearing a bikini!!!!!!! I think I might print it out and place it on my treadmill to motivate me to keep going ..... because I do NOT want to look like that this summer!!!!!! :noway:

    Good Luck to all the Princess's out there!!!!!!! :drinker:

    I'm new here. I'm am on a program over at Biggest loser's club, but this is FREE.

    My measurements

    Waist: 30
    Abdomen: 38.5
    Hips: 39

    Weight: Not sure...I think 155. I'm off the scale until Friday.

    I workout 5-6 days a week for one hour, doing zumba. (look up zumba.com) at the gym.
    It's latin aerobic dance that is high power and really works your core...and it's fun....

    mine's not been too bad so far, I've been to the gym twice and i'm going again today and friday but tomorrow is my sisters birthday and we are going out to eat. i'm not too worried about the calorie side cause I'm saving up some extra caloires today and will exercise the rest off on friday but all the salt will make me so bloated for my weigh in!! :grumble: I think i'll wait until saturday or sunday to weigh in this week! What about everyone else?

    Well monday I was feeling like the poo so I didn't do anything. Then Tuesday all I did was crunches (about 100) because that's all my schedule allowed for. Today (wednesday in Japan) I did 2 miles and 200 various types of crunches. It was my first run outside on concrete in about 2 months and boy can I feel the difference! I'm getting ready to get lunch from subway (thinking a turkey wrap with veggies) so that should actually put me right on with my calories and today I think was the first day I didn't eat some sort of not so healthy food... GO ME :laugh:
