Awesome!!!

Amazing! Have to try. Thanks for sharing

Great job, keep up the good work!!!!

You are more than welcome to add me. You too girlcantdance and MrsJones We are all here to support each other. I love this site. I've tried others, and this one works best for me. Good luck on your health/fitness goals!

I don't go to the gym for Zumba because of my schedule/family. I purchased the DVDs from zumba.com, and they are great.

Okay, how's everyone doing on the challenge? I have to admit I'm not doing so well with the water, still averaging 5 per day. I will step up my game for these last couple of days. However, I am doing quite well with the walking. As of today, I've walked a little over 6 miles!!! Keep up the good work everyone!

Not sure how you would translate into miles. This may help - I spend 42 minutes on the treadmill, 3.0 mph, 2.034 miles, burn 230.7. If you burn 460 calories doing Zumba, maybe that would equate to 4.064 miles. Just a thought

Great job everyone. I weighed the same on Monday. I am going to weigh myself tomorrow to see if my day to weigh is Wednesday. Unfortunately, I only did 4.5 miles last week (I hurt my knee). It's much better now, and I've done two miles this week. There hasn't been a challenge set for the week. However, I would like to…

Checking in - I have completed 4.5 miles so far. Only 5.5 to complete my 10 miles. How is everyone else doing on the challenge?

I weighed in this morning two pounds lighter. I started walking towards completing my 10 miles today. Woohoo!!! Keep up the good work everyone

Glad to hear of you guys progress, keep up the good work. Well, this morning I am the same weight as last week. The good news is I didn't gain any weight. I was prepared for this because I changed my plan. The whole thing is by trial and error - you live and learn right. This week I am back to my original plan (the one…

I am really dreading weigh in tomorrow morning!! Needless to say I had a fun weekend at the fair yesterday (ate back all of my exercise calories). I must say, it could have been worst - like eating funnel cake. Oh well, I get another chance this coming week. I too need to work extra hard this coming week. Let's go, 10 Mile…

Yes, let's pick one for this coming week. I vote for can you walk 10 miles this week.

I'm open to weekly challenges, I'm not sure what they would be. But anything to get the weight off. Suggestions *highest calories burned in a week *consistent water intake of 8 glasses per day (I average 5 - 6) *No junk food *No alcohol *workout 6 times in a week *can you walk/run 10 miles in a week What do you guys think?

Thanks for the links, very informative

Hi Deb, Are you suggesting we have mini challenges (i.e. weekly/bi-weekly goals)?

Hi, are you suggesting we have mini challenges (i.e. weekly/bi-weekly goals)?

Thanks for posting this, i too am confused by the whole eating exercise calories back. However, when you think about it, a calorie defecit has already been creaty by mfp. I will do my own calculations for my daily calorie intake. Didn't realize losing weight was complicated (gain weight wasn't hard at all).

Not too bad. The whole week was an off one for me; however, I didn't manage to lose one pound. How did it go for you?

Great work everyone! For those who recently joined, welcome to the challenge.

Good morning all, My weigh in this morning 210. I lost one pound this week, and I know why I didn't lose more. Things I did wrong are: *eating too late *drinking alcohol (I drank three times last week) *drinking juice *not eating breakfast *not sticking to my eating schedule (eating every two to three hours) *not drinking…

Hello, We will post our updates in this New 6 week challenge thread. If we are having challenges on a particular day, we can post here or email each other for motivation. I will also keep track of each participants progress. I am looking forward to losing 20 pounds with you guys!!!!! Tashia

Thanks everyone! You all are inspriring. Reading the successes, and seeing the before and after pictures, I know I can overcome this weight problem of mine.
