SSS = Sexy and Slim Summer Challenge

Can you relate to being like me last summer and saying “by next summer I am going to be in shape!” but here we are and it is next summer and I am fatter than ever. It’s not too late people. We have a lot of summer left. Let’s lose some major lbs over the next few weeks. I need motivation in a big way and I think support and accountability will help so I thought I would start this challenge.

I have a trip to Hawaii coming up and I would love to be down 15 pounds. I want to wear a bikini and leave the cover up back at the hotel.

Here are the details:

The Goal: To lose 15 pounds in 6 weeks
Start date: Monday, July 16th
End date: Monday, August 27th

Weight in days are……you guessed it…....Monday!

I will create our progress posts on Mondays so look for the SSS Challenge.

1st week weight:
2nd week weight:
3rd week weight:
4th week weight:
5th week weight:
6th week weight:

Total Weight lost:

We can do this. We are rock stars. We will be sexy and slim THIS summer. Good luck and see you on Monday!

    What's everyone going to do for a workout tomorrow? I'm going to run on the treadmill at the gym. I'll also make sure I do some good old military push-ups and sit-ups. Who's with me?

    Count me in!!!

    Tomorrow's workout is going to be getting on the treadmill early in the a.m. before a day of shopping :-)
    Not going to buy any clothes until I'm down another size - which I will be in 6 weeks!!!

    Let's go!

    Count me in! Today's weight is 185. Working out is just walking/slow jogging daily, with a little bit of Tae Bo thrown in when I remember to do it. (Maybe 1-2x week)

    Count me in! I had a 15 lb loss from June 1st till now, so I'd *love* to be able to hit that again. I do have a beach vacation in 2 weeks so I'll need to weigh-in early (Sunday). This will help me stay motivated and accountable on vacation.

    I am in too! I have twin babies and they are finally giving me enough breathing room to take care of myself! Need to shed the baby weight! (Did I mention that I also have baby weight to shed from the two kids prior to the twins?) Starting weight is 211. OUCH!

    Going for a hike/run on the trails right now.

    My biggest problem...I am a snacker. Boo.

    I'm in! I will weigh in on Monday morning. My last weight was 208 (as of July 6th), but I may have gained back some water weight or something. At least I know I am not the only person with baby weight to lose (I have a 6-month old). My hand is fractured, so I think lifting weights is out for now (curse word). So I will have to find other exercises to do!
