Got an extra 4.5 miles in today! (combo of jogging & walking) I actually jogged on the treadmill at the gym today! (a 1st for me!) Hope everyone is having a good start of the week!! :D

fantastic job!! congrats!! :D

Wow, I need to stop looking at these fantastic recipes, I haven't eaten lunch and this is making me HUNGRY! :smile:

Sounds delish!

Those sound AMAZING! I love the low sodium too!

I am also going on vaca this month from 8/20-8/27...I don't think I will have computer access, but will still be working out, etc...

I am confused. originally the challenge said burn an "extra 500 calories/day"...extra meaning in addition to what you already do? Or 500 TOTAL for the day, for a TOTAL weekly caloric burn of 3500?

7 lbs?!?!?! WOAH! How did you do it?

you are too funny!! good for you! Brag on, sister!!!! :D 3.6 in 10 days-that is AMAZING!!! Rock on!!!

(I posted this on the main page too) Today is 1st official weigh-in.... My starting weight was 209 (as of Fri 7/29), and today it is 207.4 (loss of 1.6 lbs)...not bad, but I was hoping for more. I will still take it! :D And for this weeks "extra 500 cal burned/day challenge", well.............. I took my average burned for…

I want to say I was under calories on Wednesday too, but I am not positive...I am terrible at estimating, and I know my dinner is not right...

Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood morning D'Terminators! :D My starting weight was 209, and since I don't have access to a scale on Sundays, I am weighing myself on Fridays. Today's weigh-in was 207.4 (a loss of 1.6 lbs!!!) I was hoping it would be more than that, but I am still happy it was something. This morning I got up…

Hi everyone! New to the team :D Happy to be included!! How do I get the logo added to my signature?

I wish I noticed this challenge before...I would have been on TWO challenges! oh well...will there be one for Sept?

bump-for when I need these suggestions! :D

ooooo that looks soooooo good!

Hey, one pound a week is still very good!! I have been here since 11/30/10 (34.71 wks) and lost 54.8 lbs. That is an average of 1.58 lbs/week.... :D

2 more full days after today until our 1st official weigh-in!! eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek. How's everyone doing out there?!?!? :smile: Thankfully, since we are counting Fri-Thur for calories burned, I have 3388 burned this week so far...(I usually don't go to the gym on Sat & Sun, so that will count as part of my "extra" 500 per…

This reminds me of when I wore a purple dress to work for Halloween, and my lovely boss made cracks at me and told me I looked like Barney :/

Wow! amazing transformation!! Congrats!! I need to try bootcamp!! :D

Ok, so I did the math wrong originally. If I am starting my week on Friday 7/29, ending Thurs 8/4, that means that last week (Fri 7/22-Thurs 7/28) I burned 1010+ 554+580+1238 = 3382 calories...if I add another 3500 to that (extra 500 per day), I would have to burn 6682 this week (7/29-8/4)...that's still INSANE. I thought…

Congrats!!!!!!!!!! :D That is sooooooooooooo fantastic!! what an amazing transformation!!

I am the one that wrote 9000 calories (I burned 5500 last week, so to add another 3500 on top of that would be INSANE)...I think what I am going to do is look at other weeks and compare, because last week was a LOT for me to begin with...I don't think I could make 9,000 calories this week anyways! :/

Wow!! amazing job!! I wish I was in line with what you lost... congrats!! :D

I am really gonna have to BRING IT tonight at the gym...........:ohwell:

Hey people :smile: GO TEAM BLUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! :D OMG, 500 extra calories a day would be INSANITY for me...I burned 5500 calories this past week, which was insane for me, so that would be 9000 calories for the week...? Can I do it? :huh: How did everyone do over the weekend? My eating wasn't the greatest (I did great…

Seriously? I agree with the first person that commented...I honestly thought you weren't even 21, and thought "what is this old business?" 47? No WAY!!! I don't buy it. And don't let those comments get to you...trust me on that, been there done that. I've been doing this since last Oct and I have gotten many comments that…

congrats!! that is fantastic!! :D

oooooooooooooooo that sounds yum!

Thanks everyone! I will have to try some of these ideas!! :D
