This is going to sound bad, but I use my friends weights to keep pushing me forward. I remember when I was 230, I used my best friends weight (211) as a first goal, then I over came it. Next I used my other friends weight (197) as a goal. I over came that one too! My next distant goal is another friends weight (155). I…

Sorry, I missed yesterdays weigh in...but I was the same none the less....:cry: Seems I have been stuck now for about 3 weeks....time to turn it up! I will be reporting a loss next week even though it is the holidays!!!

Well, I replied to your last post, but I'm in too! Starting on the 27th!!!! YAY!!!!!

OMG!!!! WOW!!!! You look amazing girl!!!!! This is a huge motivational boost to me right now!!! I still have a little ways to go, and just when I started thinking it couldn't be done (losing motivation) up pops up your post! Very inspirational! Thank you!!! :flowerforyou:

Alright, so here is my problem...I am supposed to weigh in on Mondays....for the challenges that I signed up for...maybe this isn't going to work so well for me...maybe I should just switch to weekly until after these challenges are over....sigh...

I did the full 30 days, lost 8.6lbs which was not to bad considering it is only about a 25 minutes video. However, I also incorporated extra cardio like walking for an hour a day at a moderate speed. I noticed though that my arms and shoulders started to get really toned and sexy from the shred. I used the shred as a…

Thanks! I will look into the bowflex weights!!!

Oh me!!! I wanna join in too! I have 10 days left of Insanity then onto Chalean!!! I'm just not quite sure what weights I will need...can anyone make suggestions on what lb dumbbells I will need?

I have about 10 days left of Insanity....and I can't believe I am going to say this but, I am really happy it is almost over. My weight loss has been around 15lbs for the time being so far. I didn't have any joint problems when I started and completed the first 30 days. But now I am finding that I am having a hard time…

Just wanted to check in with everyone! How is it going? I'm doing good so far and I have also bought a digital food scale and upped my exercises. I'm really determined!!! :happy:

Last Christmas I was hovering around 260! Today I'm hovering around 175!!!! I still can't believe how far I have come, seems like time sped up and all of a sudden I am under 50lbs to goal!!!!

Wow! You lucky girl! I wish I had a contest like that to motivate me! You can do it!!! Just imagine what kind of a new wardrobe you can buy with the 10K!!!! :happy:

Ok, so how bout this then....I will make a chart of everyones names who joins this challenge. We can report to the group on how well we are doing from time to time. If we cheat on accident...there will be work to be done, such as....100 jumping jacks or climbing 10 flights of stairs or something.... If anyone else has any…

YAY!!! The chart looks great!!! Thank you for making it!!! :happy: WTG to all the ladies who lost!!!

No change this week due to TOM coming a few days ago....hoping I will have a loss to report next Monday....Good luck all!!! :happy:

Is it possible that they deleted their own account??? I have had a few friends do that....I have no idea why, I think they are just weirdo's! LOL

Bump

Yep mommy of twins here too plus 2 more...my twins are going to be 4 at the end of April! I totally understand where your coming from with the lack of time issue. Usually I wait till after my little ones are tucked in for the night, usually around 7:30pm. I am down almost 85lbs now, and it hasn't been easy, but everyday I…

I did the 30 day shred then jumped into Insanity. A lot of the moves I find similar except with much more intensity.

Totally in for another challenge! Just finishing up with the Christmas challenge in a couple of weeks. We weigh in on Mondays too, so this should just carry me forward! Height: 5'7" SW: 260 Challenge Starting Weight: 175.6 Challenge Goal Weight: 155 I think this is totally doable!!! Good luck all!!!! Courtney

Thanks everyone! I was thinking it wasn't necessarily a bad thing as well, just couldn't see past the red on my diary....oh well! I have perspective now! :smile:

Northern Ontario here too! My name is Courtney too!!!! Small world LOL!!!

I've been where you are....actually, I started my weight loss journey on new years day of 2010. So almost a year! I have come a long way since then and have dropped over 80lbs. My advice to you is, take it in small steps, don't think of it as 100lbs to lose. Make small goals of increments of 3-5lbs. It is those small…

Yep, today is one of those days....I think it is because I am being picky. I have to pick out my afternoon snacks still and I can`t really decide on anything because I have to go shopping. I am not going to give into eating crap just because its whats in the cupboard..... I find that if I can plan my snacks out ahead of…

Yep I'd like to know too, considering that I am less than 40lbs from goal and it all seems like belly fat and back *kitten*...

Woody's are good too and only 99 calories!!!

31!!!

OMG!!!! LMAO!!!! That is the funniest thing I've read all day!!! :laugh:

You know....sometimes people need to be told from an outside source. Yes, it may have hurt her feelings, but really, is she in that much denial? What is the point of whining about everything you hate about yourself, do something about it if you don't like it.... Now, that I look back, I realize that I myself was guilty of…
