I took the dog for a walk. There's lots of stopping and starting as she is still just a puppy and we are training her, but it's exercise all the same.

(big hugs) It sounds like you're having a tough time! Yep, been there done that with depression. Therapy helps so much. As for your fiancé - there is only so much you can do for him, and he needs to help himself rather than rely too much on you! One day at a time :)

I'm keen too! Name: AJ Starting Weight/Date: 189 - May 7, 2014 Current Weight/Date: 189 - May 7, 2014 Goal Weight/Date: 169 - September 15, 2014 I live in New Zealand, we run on kilograms over here, so I had to do a bit of converting.

Yes, fitting it all in sometimes is really hard. I hope your production goes well, and when it is over you should be able to get back into a good routine. Life gets in the way sometimes so try not to beat yourself up about it.

Taylor Swift 2013 in Auckland. She really puts on a show, plus I took my 12 year old daughter and it was her first concert so that made it even better!

You are doing so well, and looking at your photo I'd have to say "oh my" :love: lol. I have three main goals: 1) get back on track with food and exercise - and stay on track! I've been off and on since around August and I'm starting to get really annoyed at myself! I can definitely meet this one, I just have to put the…

Yay for dream jeans :smile: So glad it's all come together for you. Remember this post next time you have one of those "I'm still fat and will never get to my goal weight" days :drinker:

double post - sorry. I guess I'm just really excited for you :laugh:

I am kind-of keen. I did 30 day shred two days ago and I can still hardly move haha. It might be the 60 day slim down for me! I haven't done any of Jillian's workouts for two months, I've been doing Zumba and walking, but I'd noticed my middle was slowly getting flabby again - ugh!!

Tone and sculpt dvd done again. Some sore muscles today!

I used to love going to classes as well, but yes, it got too expensive. At home I can do it whenever I feel like, and my children can join in (that makes it even more fun!). I tried the tone and sculpt dvd yesterday - that was so much fun! I really enjoyed it.

I agree with the accountability. I always feel a greater sense of accomplishment when I come and post in the group after my workout! Yes I do know what you mean!! Especially if I was up to one of the long workouts, I would go back and do Shred L1 for a couple of days before doing NMTZ or BFBM to "ease" myself back into it.

You're doing great. I've given up, and will try again when it's not winter and we're not so sick.

And then wrote in her blog that she still needed participants. :laugh: :laugh: Winning all the way! I'm glad I'm not in this challenge if it's run that pitifully.

That's great! I've missed so many days I'm tempted to start over too. I'm going to keep going until the end though, and then repeat it. Keep up the good work :smile:

I can't find the group anywhere, leading me to think that it's private. I've just sent you a friend request, hopefully you can send me an invite from there. Internet has gremlins :grumble:

Hi, thanks for doing this challenge after the other one was not clearly defined in the description!! I'm definitely keen. Being part of a challenge/group will help keep me accountable.

Sooo, it's 3.30pm on July 1 here at my place. I haven't had any message yet. What's happening? Are we doing this or what? *edited to say - a disclaimer at the beginning that you only take x amount of people would have been good. "Teams will be made in the event of an outpouring of people" ... or not. "You can join any time…

Day 15 and a 1/2 :laugh: QTZ.

Sure. Sign me up!

Day 15, I did half, so hmmm. 30ds but not qtz. Just not enough time today, I don't know where the day has gone, but it's gone.

I've read this entire thread for entertainment purposes, and I'd like to add my two cents - how about a little llama to go with the drama? *disclaimer - this post is not solely directed at the OP*

^^this.

Great idea! That workout sounds good, I like the kick boxing circuits. Vertigo :grumble: not fun for you.

Day 12 - NMTZ. I didn't have a whole hour today so I just did quick trouble zones. Better than nothing!! I have had yet another two days off, my daughter has been sick.

Day 12 BFBM aarrrrgh. That was still super super hard second time around! At the start of the last circuit I nearly gave up, but then I saw there was only 5 minutes left and though "I CAN DO THIS". Only just though! No wonder I've been putting this off for a week :laugh: Anna I agree with the visualising bit too.…

BFBM is a killer. How bad was your binge? Tomorrow is a new day :heart:

Day 11 - 30ds L2. :grumble: I do not like planks.

Hi, nice to have you here. Don't be afraid of failure, it should be afraid of you! Glad that you've done the videos before, you won't be as shocked :laugh:

Day 10 QTZ. :drinker:
