WOW!!!! You look awesome!

Make it part of your regular routine. I workout right after work Friday - Monday and I have yoga on Wednesday evening. This is part of my regular routine, just like going to work. This is my time and a way to relieve my stress. Everything else gets done after my workout.

I started taking a yoga class three weeks ago at my local gym. It's a good end to my week long strength training workout. I sleep so much better and my flexibility is improving. Unfortunately my gym only offers the class once per week, otherwise I would attend more often. I've noticed my stress level has decreased…

This^ I started taking a yoga class at my gym and it was much harder than it looked. I went into the class thinking it was going to be a good stretching class, but it turned out to be a workout. I'm getting better each week and enjoy it.

5 lbs over the last 2 weeks. Back home and back on track today.

Friend of mine just bought me 2 bags of Trader Joe's Ridge Cut Sweet Potato Chips. They are really, really delicious and only 160 calories for 17 chips and only 50 grams of sodium per serving.

I'm 5'5 and my weight fluctuates between 169 and 174. When I started I weighed 212 and wore a size 16/18. I set my goal weight to 155, however, I'm currently wearing a size 6 on bottoms and medium on top. I'm happy with where I'm at and haven't lost anymore weight since May. I am constantly told that I need to stop losing…

Great job so far! Keep it up.

I still feel sore after, but, that's because I really push myself with these. These are also being done in addition to the workouts I do 6 days a week. The good thing is that I've definitely noticed a change and have dropped a dress size.

Just tried TJ's Three Layer Hummus (traditional, cilantro jalapeno & spicy) and it is delicious. Only 70 calories for 2 Tbsp. My new favorite.

Here are my measurements: Waist - 34.75 Bust - 39 Thigh - 22 Arm - 14 Hip - 41 Stomach - 40 Calf - 16.5 There is definitely a noticeable change. Keep up the hard work everyone.

Since I just finished week 3 here are my results: Situps: 45 Squats: 29 Dips: 36 I'll post measurements tomorrow when I can get dh to take them. Week 2 results were: Situps: 30 Squats: 21 Dips: 25 Great job everyone! Keep up the hard work.

Please don't be discouraged. I don't think this challenge was meant for each of us to compete with each other. At least I don't see it that way. I think this was meant to make each of us more stronger by the end. I can't stand to do sit-ups, but have no problems doing dips or squats. Being able to do more than what I…

I'm on Week 3 Day 1. Is anyone else on Week 3?? I posted my results for week 1 on Sunday and I think I should've went ahead and posted week 2 results. Sits Ups = 30 Squats = 22 Dips = 27

Made this today and used 4 eggs, 4 ounces shredded chicken breast, 2 cups fresh spinach, 2 cloves fresh garlic, 1/4 medium onion, 1 medium red bell pepper, 2 cups cottage cheese 2% and pepper to taste. Baked it in a glass pie plate at 375 deg. for 40 minutes. It is a little watery, but I just drained it and dabbed the rest…

Here is how I did this week and I'm pleased with the results. W1D3: Situps = 20 Squats = 13 Dips = 16 (Starting Measurements) Waist = 34.75 Hip = 41.00 Thigh = 22.50 Arm = 13.50 Calf = 16.00 (Current Measurements) Waist = 34.75 (No Change) Hips = 41 (No Change) Thigh = 21.50 (-1" loss) Arm = 14 (+.50" increase) Calf = 16…

I workout at Curves 6 days a week for 30 - 40 minutes right after work. I do these first thing in the morning. I'm having to modify the sit-ups this week since I hurt myself last week, but should be back to doing full sit-ups for week 3.

I started yesterday and did all sets for each exercise. After the 2nd set it was getting tougher. I was able to break a sweat and thought I did okay, however, this morning was a different story. I work out 6 days a week, but just the concentration on these muscle groups made me extremely sore. I'm looking forward to doing…

Just finished the initial test for all three and here are my results: Squats - 18 = Average Situps - 25 = Average Dips - 25 = Average Looking forward to improving my ranking and #'s.

It shouldn't be complicated once you get your calculations right. Like Azalais did, I was putting my height into the wrong field which gave me lower numbers compared to others in this group.

You may want to recheck your TDEE. I thought I had mine calculated correctly and it turns out for the past 3 weeks I was wrong. My measurements were off which gave me TDEE = 2107; BMR = 1221 and CUT = 1791. After I recalculated and recalculated again and double checked to make sure my measurements were correct my numbers…
