Hi all, I hope your weekend has been great so far. I am liking the challenges this week. I have managed to get to bed by 10 most nights which is really good for me. I think the time change is helping with that. I have taken my cardio workout up a notch and have been eating my veggies. I am staying within my calories, and…

I find that I sometimes gain weight in the days right before my TOM and then near the end of it I usually see a loss. I think I have PMS right now so I hope that is why I am gaining.

I could not be more frustrated with my weigh in this morning. I thought I did well this week but I am up again. I am trying not to let it get to me but now its 2 weeks in a row! Current weight-139

I had a pretty good day today. I stayed under calories, and burned 1100 calories on the bike. I also did 120 crunches, and 50 squats. I have been a little depressed lately about my weight loss, but am continuing to plug away. Every morning this week I have weighed myself and I just keep gaining instead of losing. I mostly…

Just checking in for the day. I did much better on my challenges today. I tracked my food all weekend (although yesterday my eating habits were a disaster). Today I stayed under calories and burned 1300 calories, did 120 crunches, and 50 squats. I hope everyone had a great weekend.:happy:

So I lost on the mindful eating thing-why must my children have Halloween candy everywhere I look? But I made up for it in exercise. I burned 1000 calories on my bike and did 50 squats, 120 crunches and 60 side leg lifts. So I was able to come in under calories for the day.

I am doing much better with my mindful eating today. So far I haved logged all my food and have not touched the kid's Halloween candy. As soon as my son goes down for his nap I am going to do my crunches, squats, push ups, and maybe some cardio if my older one will give me a break at this time. I have to start getting my…

I missed weigh in day because we had been without power since last Saturday! My family was staying with my Mom and I ate like I was on vacation so I actually had a gain. Today is my back day on my diet and I am struggling with cravings. starting weight 137.5 new weight 138.5

I didn't do well today at all! We are snowed in here in CT. We have at least 6 inches of snow already and it is supposed to go until tomorrow morning. I had bought a bag of Ruffles and some dip and was supposed to bring it to a party tomorrow, but guess what I ended up opening tonight? So even with a burn of 1000 calories…

I did my 20 girly push ups today! I also burned around 1200 calories with cardio and did my 50 squats and 120 crunches. However I was terrible about my water. I think I only drank 48 oz for the day.

Whoops I must've posted too late yesterday to get on the chart. It looks great and I can't wait to be added. Starting weight is 137.5 and it hasn't changed yet. Goal weight for challenge 130 Thank you so much for doing this!

Hey all, I didn't post my weight yesterday so here it is 137.5 My goal weight is 130 Today I have burned 800 calories so far on my stationary bike, and also done 120 crunches and 50 squats. I will do the push ups tonight with my nightly workout. I have issues with my wrists so I'm not sure how many I can do. I will say 20…

I really understand this. I usually lose weight every other week. I work out everyday, and do a ton of cardio but my weight loss is very slow. Just keep up the good work and I am sure you will see a difference next week. Four pounds in the first week is awesome. I usually lose that in a month.:smile:

Thank you! I have a stationary bike in front of my tv and I don't let myself watch any of my shows unless I am riding. its the only way I get the cardio in.

72 oz for me today. 200 crunches, 50 squats and 1247 calories burned with cardio

So far today I've drank 48 oz's. Thats pretty good for me-I usually wait till to late and then try to drink it all at bedtime. I have burned 900 calories with cardio today and done my 100 crunches and 50 squats. I won't be able to do the push ups challenge as I have carpel tunnel in my wrists-so I think I will do some work…

I hope it is still okay to join. I need as much motivation as I can get. Current weight 137.5 Goal weight 130

Oh I'm so happy to see you are still here with us Amazing Grace! I hope you are not in too much discomfort, and are back to your workouts in no time.

Okay I noticed there are only a few of us posting this week, and I was wondering WHERE IS EVERYONE! I hope the challenge isn't over already, because it is the only thing keeping me motivated with all this exercise since my body is being stubborn and not losing weight or inches. I have already burned over the 3000 mark for…

For my weekly challenge I am going to stick with the 50 squats and 100 crunches a day and add 60 side leg lifts.

I look at the number of calories and fats, try to stay away from foods that are high in carbs and sugars, and look for foods that are high in fiber and protein.

I was sad to see this morning that I neither lost weight or inches. I really worked hard this week and I don't see how I could have worked in any more cardio than I did. The one thing that might have affected me was I also woke up with my period-ugh! Hopefully it means I will have a big loss next week.

Hey everyone, Today I biked to burn 1243 cals. I also did 50 squats and 100 crunches as well as worked my arms. For the week I have burned 6507 calories.

Today I burnt 1322 calories between walking the bike trail and riding my bike. I also did 100 crunches, 50 squats and 100 reps for my arms. I drank over 10 glasses ( a miracle for me) and stayed under calories. It was def. a great day here. I am so gonna miss the beautiful weather we've been having.

this week my personal goal is to continue the 100 situps a day, and add 50 squats to each day. I've decided it is nice to have a rest day so it will be 600 sit ups and 300 squats. I'll just add the numbers together for my goal.
