Love the name and the logo! I need advice on how to copy it and how to put it in my signature. Can't wait for the start of September - we can do it ladies!

4.2 this afternoon! I need 4 miles a day for the next 6 days. As long as I don't skip a day - I think I can do it!!!

I love the name and motto as well! I have no creativity, but I would love to have a logo to put in my signature for September :)

4.20 for me today! Ticker updated. I'm still about 28.2 miles behind! Maybe if I run/walk twice a day I can make it to my goal. Whether I make it or not, at least I moved by *kitten*.

Hi all - thanks so much for letting me join your team! My name is Megan (Meg) and I'm in grad school so my schedule . I'm so excited about this challenge because I feel like it will really help with motivation and such an amazing team like you lovely ladies! I'm fine with any team name. I actually like Amazons, but I…

4.07 miles running/walking today. I might have to start using the elliptical to finish because my calves are taking kind of a beating running so much. Still hoping to meet my goal even though I am behind. I'll have to average 3.6 miles the next 9 days. Doable, but will be quite a challenge!

Still room for one more? I'd love to be on your team!

Ran/walked 4.08 miles on Saturday. I'm still 11.5 miles behind where I should be, but I'm hoping to make it up with a a few more 5 mile days so I can complete my goal. Ticker updated!

I took a few days off because I drove up back to school. I probably won't meet the challenge, but I wanted to log my calories today anyways. Who knows, maybe I can burn 2213 calories tomorrow? haha Weekly Goal: 3500 Mon: 356 (running/walking 3.35 miles) Tues: 536 (running/walking 4.89 miles) Wed: Thur: Fri: Sat: 395…

This is a great thread. Every time I go out, it is impossible not to have 4-5 drinks and it totally ruins my diet for the day. I try to workout to balance it all out, but sometimes I don't even know it is going to happen until later in the day. I just got back to school, so there will be major drinking this whole weekend.…

I joined this challenge a little late, but I worked out the past two days, so I thought I would join. Weekly Goal: 3500 Mon: 356 (running/walking 3.35 miles) Tues: 536 (running/walking 4.89 miles) Wed: Thur: Fri: Sat: Sun: Total: 892 Left to go: 2608

4.89 miles running/walking today! I'm still behind my goal (I should be at 36 right now) and I'm only at 29.5. But at least I am moving my butt! My ticker is updated.

I would love to join if there is room! I looked at the August challenge and it looks perfect for me to take it to the next level. Thanks!

I'm sorry you are having a hard time! We are all here for you! Keep it up and just take it one day at a time. You might not see the scale move right away, but it will eventually. For now, just look at everything as making you healthy, rather than making you thin, and it can change your whole perspective. Good luck and keep…

Ran/walked 3.35 miles today! Ticker is updated. I realized that I'm not exactly on track - I should be around 33 miles halfway through the month and I'm behind! Just more motivation to pick up the pace. This challenge has been so amazing. It really motivates me to go to the gym and even though I switch back and forth…

2.25 mile run/walk this morning. I've been hiatus for a few days because me knee felt a little weird, but it felt great today! I've got to make up some ground tomorrow though - I'm a little behind if I want to make my goal!

I'm around 5'8" and my goal is 150. My ULTIMATE goal is 145, but I'll have to see how I look/feel at 150. Nice to see everyone's different answers! It reinforces that we all have different body types and there is no "perfect" weight, size, or shape.

BOB Outkast - I use this when I need an immediate spurt GirlTalk is amazing I Wanna Go - Britney Spears (guilty pleasure) but it totally pumps me up Give Me Everything - Pitbull/Ne-Yo Anything by Matt & Kim Raincoat - Crash Kings Semi-Charmed Life - Third Eye Blind I hope this helps! Thanks to everyone else for their recs!

I don't quite know. I just noticed it was a little sensitive a few days ago when I was getting up off the floor. I have relatively weak knees so it might have just been a combination of working out. Basically - my knee is fine when it is straight and fine when it is bent 90 degrees, it just has a slight twinge while it is…

I made crab rangoonies from Hungry Girl the other day as an appetizer for my family and they loved it! These aren't good for you, but they aren't bad for you (4 of them are 140 calories). It takes awhile to make because you have to fold the wanton wrappers, but other than that it is super easy. Good luck!…

I took the weekend off, but 4.73 miles walking/running today! Ticker updated!

Actually I love having nutella around! My trick is to just have ONE tablespoon at a time, put it in a small bowl, and melt it in the microwave for about 30 seconds. When it is melted it goes a lot further. Then I dip strawberries into it. It is PERFECT when I'm craving something sweet, but turns out to be only 80 calories…

Burned 533 today for a total of 1668 so far. Sodium has been much more of a challenge than I thought. Thanks Mo for alerting me to something I need to work on! Excited to see what new challenge you come up with for next week!

Did 3.77 more today! This challenge motivates me more than anything else!

Did 5.01 miles today!

Had a good day! Burned 614 calories and was under the sodium goal. I just kept track of my sodium on my own, but is there any way to add it as a column in my food diary? I couldn't figure out how! Also, I realized I probably won't be able to get to 4000 calories this week because I am going out of town from Fri-Mon to see…

5.5 miles running/walking today! Felt good but I'm hoping I'm not too sore tomorrow.

I love Gilad's Best of Bodies in Motion. You can find it on amazon for around $10. It's over an hour with cardio and toning. It's very 80s and pretty cheesy, but it WORKS! During the butt toning part I literally YELL at the TV at Gilad because it burns, but it works. I would highly recommend it.

Go to tickerfactory.com. Then click on "Exercise & Fitness Ticker." It should take about 2 minutes to create. I hope that helps!

I'm in! I never watch my sodium so this will be great, although tough. I better hit the gym hard tomorrow - 4000 calories here I come!
