need to lose 30 lbs
20 and beyond
I just passed the 20lb mark this morning. Wahoo! Post here when you make it, too!
Halfway There
Just posted on spreadsheet and saw that we're at the halfway point! I've lost 9.2 so far so just 0.8 away from losing half of goal. I'll take it! It's been a stressful week or so between Hurricane Matthew and then I also had a death in the family. But, now I'm back at work and trying to get back into my regular routine.…
My Motivation finally kicked into gear!
On August 25, 2016 I decided to set a goal to walk 100 miles by the end of the year. Then I decided to be ambitious and change it to Thanksgiving (but was ok with Nov 17 when I put in the wrong date lol a week earlier so a little more push). Last week when I started burning through the miles I decided I could complete in a…
Is it just me who needs a bit of a kick?!
Thanks to half marathon prep (did it Sunday!) and a general lack of interest in cutting calories, my weight has crept up over the past 3-4 weeks. Plus I have been diligently logging my calorie excess each day and now I have 50 penalties to do to break even! SO! I have just been ordered to cut the carbs for 2 weeks so this…
Challenge week #3 (August 29th-sept 4th)
Sorry I've been a little Mia this week, it's been a busy one. So this week how about we pick an exercise goal and try to stick to it. I'm gonna aim for 30 mins at least 5 days this week. I currently don't exercise at all so I think this will be a good challenge for me. All right guys lets do this!
Challenge #2 (August 21st-27th)
All right so I figured I'd just go right down the list of suggestions cause I thought they were all great. That means week 2 is eat your veggies week! Try to get in as many veggies as you can and as many colors as you can. Come back here everyday and tell us how you did.
Penalties for going over calories
I really like Saree1902's idea about having penalties for going over calories. I think we should do this everyday. So if you go over your calories come here and pick an exercise and tell us about it. Pick one exercise for every 100 calories you are over. 20 push ups 20 squats 20 lunges 1 minute plank 30 jumping jacks or…
Challenge #1 (Aug 14th-8/20)
So I figured for the first week we'd start off with something semi-easy. Lets all try to drink half our body weight in oz of water every day (ex. If you weight 200lbs you would drink 100oz of water). I for one drink weight to much soda and find it very hard to stop, but maybe I can crowd it out by increasing my water…
Everyone Ready!?!
Today's day one, hope everyone's ready. I weighs in this morning at 288lb :( not my heaviest weight but definitely not where I want to be. I'm so ready to make a change. At this point I'm not even doing it to look better, I just want to feel better. I am sick of being achy and sore. My feet always hurt and I'm always…
