WE GOT THIS LADIES....Bring on the challenge!!!

I have a chest strap and i can barely feel it. It goes under the breast bone, so it's like it's a part of your sports bra. I have a freinds that has one withough the chest strap and it's never accurate. I say go for the Polar, it would be your best bet. Good Luck ~Chika

Alright i'm already planning for tomorrows challenge. I usually do 2 mile runs, but i guess i will be doing 3 miles tomorrow. It's going to be a combination of walking/jogging and running, as long as it get done, right!?!?! LETS GO LADIES!!!! ~Chika

I honestly wish you the best in your weight loss goal, but 40lbs in 8weeks????? Do you think that is a reasonable goal. I can see a goal of maybe 15-20lbs in 8 weeks. I beleive you need to re-evaluate your goal. I don't want you to be too diapointed if you don't reach your 40lb goal. Wish you all the best and Good luck…

100 jumping jacks complete. 2 sets of 50 in 2 mins with a 30sec rest in between sets. SMASH!

Day 4's up and downs looks sick....that's my kind of workout. I love challenging myself. Get it ladies!!!! ~Chika

You look awesome. Congratulations.

Congrats girl. My sister had it done and she hasn't looked back (no pun intended).

WOW....Now the choice is getting harder. I was leaning towards an iphone since i have an itouch, but now i'm leaning towards the Droid....Arghhhhhhh. Still not convinced.

I defeinetly have stretch marks, but it doesn't bother me (although i use vitamin E oil daily), I call them my battle scars, it just reminds me to never turn back to my old ways. As far as the saggy skin, you have to incorporate weight lifting into your workout regimens, it will help. But overall it all depends on genetics…

Hi ladies, My name is Chika and i am from Boston, MA. I love a good competetion especailly if everyone benefits. I love working out and learning how to eat right. I am game for anything that involves any type of vigorous activity. My moto is, if you're not sweating, then that means you are not working hard enough ;) Lets…

I am Uber-Excited for this Challenge, i like competetions, gets me motivated. Thanks for setting this team up .

One word, CARDIO and lots of it. You can't spot reduce in one area. Where ever the most fat is, is always the last to go, so be pateint. Good Luck.

do you remember that site? I'd be interested to calculate my ideal number. [/quote] I actually have an app on my phone that does it for me. But if you google BMI calculator it will give you a range.

Oh wait, i won't be happy till i look right in a bikini. I haven't worn one since 1999. LOL

I guess for now i will stick with 150, but don't want to go below 130, i think at that weight, i would look sickly. I guess we really shouldn't worry about the scale, but it is so hard. But i will try and do better. My main goal is to be a size 4/6 and whatever that weight is, is where i would be happy at. The way my body…

I would love #5's Tummy, #6 thighs and #7 Arms and I would be the happiest woman in the planet.

I am just going to 'bump' this. I have so much to say about this topic. Bottomline, it's not about what others think of you, it's what YOU think about yourself. If you don't like what you see in the mirror, then do something about it. I'm done. ~Chika

So true....Becasue i'm worth it.
