I've done a total of 10 miles of walking/running extra thanks to this challenge...

We have more miles than what is added; pretty sure! I think we need to go back through the thread and count... either that or each of us give team leader the extra miles we have done this week....

I have completed everything! Wasn't sure I would but I did! Way under in calories thank to all the exercises! Way over in water.... thanks to all the exercises! I posted earlier than I walked extra .... Woohoo!

look at your food diary recently and see if there is anything you are eating more of... you might be eating more veggies or other fiber or added a new type of dairy or something.... I wouldn't give up fiber because that's so good for you, but examine everything else you have been eating to see if there is anything…

That's straight up awesome! Great Job!

Ironically enough, if you aren't drinking enough water, you retain it... DRINK YOUR WATER! lol if you don't like the taste of it, try some crystal light or Mio or another flavoring for your water... Also, our bodies fluctuate A LOT... weight doesn't tell the entire story. You might still have undigested food .... along…

Walked 1.5 miles extra this morning, so I think that's 32.5 miles. :-)

Great NSVs!

Finished the jumping jacks, the 21s, drank plenty of water, under my calories, and walked 1.5 miles tonight on top of my other workouts.... Woohoo! We're gettin it done!

Yes, definitely have some abs there! You look fantastic. What a difference!

If biking does count... I biked 10 miles today...

Those are very good, not too sweet, the kids even love them, and they are low in calories!

jamba frozen treats.... they are great! Also, frozen cool whip (it tastes just like indulgent ice cream)

I love Week 2's challenges... I think i will be definitely a huge challenge... I just feel like there was a huge leap in the difficulty of week one and then week 2's difficulty :noway: I'll definitely do 5 miles; I bet I can do more though... but I don't want to promise more if I don't make it... Do the miles count if we…

Finished everything today.... up/downs, I have even done everything from earlier in the week as well today... lol... I was in a boot camp class and did sit-ups, crunches, jumping jacks, up-downs, along with a lot of other things... I also walked a mile total today .... woohoo... that's on top of my normal pilates class…

Well, you have so many net calories to eat a day.... if you do exercise and log it it'll show you approximately how many calories you burned... It takes the total of calories burned and adds it to your daily total of food intake... So say you have 1600 calories that you can consume but you do 600 calories worth of…

Already half way on my water and have a cycle class tonight; those definitely help with the water consumage! lol I'll do my ab work after my class and I'll for sure be under my calorie goal because that class will rip it!

I've drank 8 cups of water and did my jumping jacks. My current profile picture is of my current weight. Thanks. Melissa

Baha.... I'm only gonna live in places that have fruit in the name.... Orange County.... etc.... that might actually work out to my favor though... lol

Is it me, or is it that Bacon is the ONLY food you can literally eat with anything... I'm talking anything... Even icecream... chocolate.... cupcakes (as someone mentioned earlier). I love bacon too much to give it up forever. I don't eat it every day or even every week for that matter; If I want to eat it more regularly I…

I've always sweated more than I thought I should but lately, it's like I sweat even in yoga and pilates... but other people do too... I definitely sweat in cardio sessions though; especially cycle... I usually have a drenched shirt when I either run hard or do a cycle class that completely kicked my butt. I drink a lot of…

I wouldn't say something is going to work great just because the doctor ordered it, but obviously they get paid a lot for their advice, so it's usually credible. However, I would caution someone to not do anything that is considered a fad diet or something that will have you lose weight so fast... as soon as they go back…

Eat more and I bet those pounds will start to drop off again... Also, you might try to zig zag your calories to get out of your plateau. Here's a good link to zig zagging.... http://www.freedieting.com/tools/calorie_calculator.htm

Is anyone gonna take the challenge? :happy:

I would say the people that need that many more calories than the majority are truly just active people during the day. Most people are thinking 1200 calories to lose weight, what they aren't realizing is that is for NON-ACTIVE people. The majority of us are all couch potatoes or are working at desk all day without much…

scales definitely disagree all of the time, but if you are planning on using your new digital one, i would use that weight. Also doctor scales are more accurate than most so I would definitely take that weight over your old one... and it just sounds like you lost some weight... Besides, if you weighed yourself last night…

I'm 5' 1.5" and weigh 179; I'm just now in a size 16 and large shirts... some extra large if they are tighter fitting...

Awesome! You've come such a long way!

bump.... And thanks!
