Welcome to the May Challenge Board!!
I always love May and the things that happen in May. It is my birthday month, my anniversary month when I married the love of my life, Mother's Day to celebrate my mom and being a mom and *School's Out for Summer ** (go ahead and sing aloud if you know that song!...lol)
I want this May to also be a happy one for moving and weight loss! April was a personal challenge as I struggled to lose weight and reach my personal goals. Therefore, I am going to set weekly goals again within my month and I challenge you to fit what works best for you this month! If you want to cut/paste my all caps stuff for yourself, go for it and let's keep losing!!!
MY GOALS FOR WEEK 1 IN MAY: (Shooting to lose 6 pounds this month at least)
1. Drink a minimum of 6 glasses of water!!
2. Exercise at least 6 days this week... 5 treadmill days with increasing speed and increasing incline and 1 day of Jillian
3. Continue weighing on Thursdays (my biggest loser with the school is over and I need to continue this commitment)
MY GOALS FOR WEEK 2 IN MAY:
MY GOALS FOR WEEK 3 IN MAY:
MY GOALS FOR WEEK 4 IN MAY:
Let's do this!!

I got my Jillian day over with today...hehehe! I always love how I feel afterwards, but boy does she kick your butt!! I am on my 3rd cup of water already an it's only 9:11... WOOHOO!! I will reach these goals!
Congrats Jennifer on your big decision! That is a huge commitment and I wish the very best for you!!0 -
tknwatkins: I am so proud of you how you can get up early in the AM and wake yourself up with Jillian. I just don't have the motivation and time in the AM. I plan on visiting her after work today. I personally love the punches! I stand in front of the TV and pretend that I am punching her in the face (because by that time in the video, she has already kicked my butt) 0

hauer01,
I have to wake up early and exercise because I am so busy with my children and work, by the time I get home I have nothing left! I set my alarm an hour early just to have some alone time and exercise and it is something I can really stick with. I set my alarm on my phone and put it across the room so I have to get up to turn it off and once I am up... I might as well stay up! Hope you and Jillian had a great day! lol0 -
This week I lost 3 pounds; however, last week for some reason I had gained 1 so take THAT weight gain!! I am happy I didn't let my first gain get me down. I am changing afterall!! Now, that I have lost 31.4 pounds, look out 40 pounds, here I come!! I hope all of you have a fantastic, exercise moving, under calorie kind of day!!0
-
That is AWESOME! I took inspiration from you and got my butt out of bed at 5:00 am this morning and Jillian and I had a bit of a chat. I feel good that I already have a good workout in! Thanks for the inspiration!!!!0
-
Hauer01,
Good for you! It is a great feeling knowing it is done and knowing how many calories you have left for the day! Congrats on the early morning workout. I really prefer it!! I am proud of you!0 -

I am SO proud of you!!! You have done amazing!!!!! WOW... 48 pounds since January!!!!!! Are you still doing Curves?? I am so thankful for all of you and your support!!0 -
Hi everyone,
I'm not sure what just happened??? BUT, I woke up and wanted to do Jillian again! Twice in one week already!! The whole time I did it I thought of you hauer and wondered if you were doing it too!! I worked hard too!! Goodbye fat and goodbye flappy muscles. I've got this and it is coming off!!! Have a great day everyone!! Work hard, move more, and make good food choices!!0 -
Ooh! I didn't get up early today to do it, but I plan to do it after work! I will admidt though, that I like getting it out of the way in the AM. It gave me so much more energy during the day. I will definately be getting up early a couple of days a week to do it. Not everyday, but a couple.
Thanks for the inspiration tknnwatkins!0 -
Well this week I lost 3 lbs, lets hope I can keep it off and lose more. I will be trying to workout more this week if my schedule allows it and eating according to my diet.0

Way to go brokentiara! Nice loss for the week! Keep up the super work!0

Yes I am still doing Curves, I am trying to stay on top of it but I feel myself fading...:( Today is the first day that I have wanted to just pig out!! I want to eat everything! I have managed to make it to 3:30pm without eating to much but I must say that out of 120 days of doing this, this is the worst day. Just wanted to vent hoping it will help me throught the rest of the day. Now I am off to feed my boys, lets hope I don't eat their food first:'(Csouto,
I am SO proud of you!!! You have done amazing!!!!! WOW... 48 pounds since January!!!!!! Are you still doing Curves?? I am so thankful for all of you and your support!!0 -
Some days are like that... I have had a few of those myself. Then there are other days I could almost not eat because I'm just not very hungry. Stick with it though because you have worked so hard and you know how good you feel already!!0
