200 sit ups- check :smile: Feel good but know that burn will hit home tonight.

Good Lord!!! There are a ton of you that are so extreme and dedicated, I'm finding myself being the person that has to catch up. I love reading all the posts and more importantly reading between the lines in all you have to say and offer. You really lay it on the line and are totally vunerable to this group. Applause from…

They were talking about YOU! I dunno, if I were in your shoes I'd be asking myself this question....."Now why are all these super busy guys discussing ME"??? I'd see it as an enormous boost to the ego. Comment or not...they've all obviously noticed you. Wink! :wink:

Yahoo, you'll be the first to finish the challenge if you post your results of 200 today. Let us know how you do.....have you done this before?

Did 100 sit ups... I hate doing them and complained 100 times while crunching away to Beyonces "Radio" Plan on getting to the 200 mark by Friday. Meditation will happen this weekend. Heading to Palm Springs on a dance convention with my girls. Will find a sauna, a cool drink and 15 minutes of ME- Plan for the rest of the…

Great, glad you guys found it ok. For those of you who are new, a big welcome. Please go back to this header under the "introduce yourself" board and catch up on what we've been up to in our first week, the mini challenges and of course the weigh ins. There you'll find all the answers to your questions. Allie will add the…

Crawline, the very same thing happened to me. I swear those nurses jack the scales to read more! That's one of the reasons I dashed out and got a new scales which is 100% more accurate than my old one. I swear, these things fade with time. I've moved the thread over to the "Motivation and Support" board. It's up and…

Good Morning everyone!!! Isn't amazing just how much we all got accomplished in just the first week? Heather's challenge was the perfect kick off and got many of us moving that would have put it off another week. Me included. I hit the challenge also... Wed- 45 min stairmaster Thurs-60 min elliptical Frid- ran 1.50 miles…

A healthy weight loss should be between 2-3 lbs a week. Going with 2 a week loss, that gives you 10 weeks to lose it. Take out your calender and mark the date.. Good luck on your journey:flowerforyou:

Nicely said purdygirl! Waiting for meokk to take the next challenge. If we don't hear from her by Monday morning I'll nominate someone else...k?

Serious work Allie, thank you so much from all of you:flowerforyou: I'm sure you all now realize how important your consistent weigh ins will be, look at how much work is involved for Allie. We want to make her job as easy as possible. I HAVE to move us under another header or else we'll blow up this thread there's been…

Hi and welcome....just curious since I may buy a new scale. What type/brand did you buy? and from where?

Got the Friday work out in and whew, am I glad I did as I sip my glass of guilt free Pinot.:drinker: You all did amazing today with the weigh ins and I welcome all you new faces. It's a little past 6pm here in San Diego CA, cut off is approaching so I urge all you stragglers to bust a move and post your stats:yawn: I've…

So funny....can't wait.

tjones7... the beauty about this group is the neverending support and total lack of judgement. I don't care if your SW is 300lbs or 120lbs...it's only a number and it's only relevant to you. I have a friend who weighs close to 230lbs and she thinks she's the hottest thing since sliced bread (she is, I love her to death),…

Gail... I HAVE to know what you are doing and for how long to burn 2,479 calories???? I almost killed myself for an hour on the ellip last night and only squeezed off 600 cals.

Here we go..... SW- 193.5 CW- 193.5 GW- 145 Mini Goals April 30th- 188 June 30th-180 Completed Challenges: 2 down, 2 to go for Heathers wkout challenge I begin Day one of Cooler 1 today....wish me luck. Oh and Candice26, I think I will have the wine tonight :drinker: Good luck out there kids! S

Thanks jarelary4....I'll make sure that Allie gets these as you're leaving for vacation and probably won't be able to post tomorrow. Have a fab holiday by the way! For the rest of the gang, tomorrow is our launch and for Allie to get the most accurate reads, you must post your SW, CW and GW. For most of us who are starting…

Crawline, good job...you're all over it! One way to ensure if your scale is accurate is to place a 5-10lb dumbell on it. I've found the heavier the weight (8-10) the more accurate the read. I dunno why, maybe 5lbs is really too light for it to gauge. I was actually thinking of buying a new one myself....am I wishing the…

It's never too late....you have the will and drive, you've found the place to be with an amazing supportive group of ladies. I'm off to get my kids from school, then to dance to drop them off, me to the gym and then to WholeFoods to stock up my fridge for Cooler 1, day 1 begins for me tomorrow!!!!!Ahhhh, what if I break…

This is what I'm talking about with "No Excuse"!!!! Nolachick is scheduling her weigh in at the gym tomorrow cause she doesn't have a scale at home. How many of us would just guesstamate? or even worse, fail to weigh in? Not her.... She's already showing the gritt and determination of a winner!!!! One to watch for huge…

bennettv, you HAVE to share your amazing news with the team!!!!!

Wow! That's an aggressive day for you, you'll burn a ton of calories not to mention how your metabolism will soar after you run. Good for you. I'm heading to LA Fitness tonight to get in a 45 minute cardio session while my 2 girls are at dance. Heather will be so proud of you for sticking with her challenge. Keep this up…

I know right? She's such an inspiration to us all. I hear you about the friends and cooler Gail :laugh: ....who's laughing last? YOU are...... looking awesome. Bennettv and icount4u- a huge welcome. I hope you gals are ready for an E ticket ride....here we go!!!

Awwww, thanks Crawline. Bound and determined to fit into those Tru Religions. Whats your exercise plan for today?

Good luck with your trip and tax protest. Taxes :devil: Don't you just love them!!!!:sad: So tomorrow is the big day. Remember I was undecided weather to pig out this week or try to have a decent weigh in, well the former happened and I can truely say that I am not going to lie when I post tomorrow cause that number is…

:heart: FitFifty, I LOVE what you posted on your personal profile. So much about us as women is a reaction to how one perceives us. We need to throw caution to the wind and live our lives as we chose to. Reading it tonight inspired me...so for that I thank you:heart: have you guys checked out how many hits we've had in the…

Here we go Heather...off too the gym for day 1 workout. acakeforawife...I love that you have your workouts planned out, really specific and even threw in plan B's in case of adverse weather...now thats some serious dedication.

OMG!!!!!purdygirl, I'm dieing here.... That is the CUTEST thing I've ever seen. I'm gonna do it too! Do you mind. It's like our special stamp...You may have started something here with this picture:laugh:

Ok....sounds like there is some confusion out there relating to the challege and for that I apologize for not clarifying better...:heart: Hope this helps. 1. Allie is manning the spreadsheet with everyones stats and i think her goal is to have it posted by Saturdays. 2. The official weigh in day is every Friday and we…
