Holiday Dress Slimdown

1) No eating after 6:30-7pm

This one will be tough -- I think for me it'll have to be 8 or 9. We don't eat until 6:30.

2.) 60 oz of water daily -- Good one!

3.) No sugar three days of the week (unless it's Natural from fruit or veggies)

I am going to STRUGGLE with this one

4.) 60-100 sit up a day challenge

Whoa -- Let's do this!!

Current weight: 148
Goal weight 135

Ok, so I weighed in this morning at 148. I'm ok with this. Last week I was actually closer to 148.8. So I've lost ALMOST 1 lb. Mark me down... I'm on the move!

Revised:
Start weight 148.8
Goal weight 135

Actual: 148.0

Now for those crunches... :grumble:

Challenges i thought would be good !!!

1) No eating after 6:30-7pm
*This one is actually a good one that I need to follow. While I don't mind a snack after that, I need to not eat bad stuff after that.
2.) 60 oz of water daily
*Good one, I usually try to get to this point.
3.) No sugar three days of the week (unless it's Natural from fruit or veggies)
*This will not happen for me. I need sugar in my coffee - and need my coffee more. I can't do the artificial stuff. But, I'll try to limit extra sugars beyond my coffee.
4.) 60-100 sit up a day challenge
*Wow, I suppose this could be a good challenge.

I have a stomach flu and im hoping it won't mess up with my weight lost... im trying to get a protein shake in here and there but my body just isn't keeping anything down or in at this point blah i hate being sick... :sad:

I am in

Current weight 185.5
Goal Christmas Weight 175

I currently weigh in on Sunday Mornings, to get my Week started good or Motivated
I am faithfully using my calorie counter b/c it is easy to use and trying not to eat all my exercise calories at the end of the day

Yeah We're doing challenges... these are some that we're doing:

1) No eating after 6:30-7pm

2.) 60 oz of water daily

3.) No sugar three days of the week (unless it's Natural from fruit or veggies)

4.) 60-100 sit up a day challenge

Personally -- I've chosen to do challenges 2 and 4. Does anyone have any other suggestions for challenges that they've found on other threads that would be good for us? I really wanna step it up this time!

Count me in too. We need to have a challenge for this week of not eating ANY halloween candy. I did this once on ediets and actually made it through halloween.

Current weight: 176
Goal Christmas weight: 165

Good luck everyone!

I like this. I am going to steal it to follow my progress. Thanks!
I think seeing it like this will help me to stay on task.

One of my goals is to do at least 45-60 mins. of the elliptical 3 days a week.
I think I'm going to add in the 30 day shred beginning of Nov. I'm going to think on it and set up a schedule for myself between the two. That way I know what I'm doing each day of the week. I will leave weekends open as we are often away, but I can do makeups then as well if we are home.

I am planning on starting the 30 day shred tonight. I have to clean out the room I exercise in first. Guess that'll be more workout for me. Probly no elliptical on top of that. I need to kick it into gear if I want to make my goal.

One absolute positive - the hubby is wanting to eat better and get healthy so that'll help at home. Now to figure out how to curb the boredom snacking at work...

Hey i was wondering if i could join as well?!? My starting weight is 223 or so...it's not a doctors scale though. :flowerforyou:

I am starting today! The hubby and I are going to be on a CRUISE during new years eve!!

At least I'm good at maintaining, right?! Losing this 15 pounds isn't looking like its manageable right now. We'll see. I do need to change something though. I need to make sure I exercise most days is what I need to do. I'm just so lazy!
