Gary posted this yesterday. I'm at work so I can't watch the video to see if this is the right one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8lq7Wkpukk

Today Gary posted that 10 reps of swimming presses was one set. I didn't know so I just did 12 reps per set.... :laugh:

I was part of the last Diamond challenge and am a part of the new one as well. I don't think anything has been sent out yet. I know Miss Jamaica has been very busy the last few weeks. I believe that she had started a new job that was taking up a lot of her time. I'm sure we will hear something soon. She usually…

Great job!!!!! Today's exercises are done as well as some walking, jumping jacks and crunches (I will message Sonia my official totals later tonight. I think I may get some more done between emails and such). I love working from home!! Did anyone else have trouble with the windshield wipers? I got through them but boy were…

Well, I did get the 1,000 crunches in last week, but they were definitely not my friend. As such, here are my commitments for the week: ckarlovec: 250 crunches, 1,400 jumping jacks and 10 extra miles. If you need more of anything, please let me know and I'll do the best that I can!!

Gemma, there is definitely a difference in tone and definition, and your legs look slimmer. Thanks for posting and reminding me that it's time to take pictures again... I think I've lost 10-12 pounds since the last time I took them. Anyway, you look great, keep up all of your hard work!

Me too! Mine arrived earlier this week. So far, I'm loving it.

Fruit smoothie - plain Greek yogurt, frozen strawberries, frozen banana, skim milk

Congratulations!!! I think that is a great reason to have to pull out of the challenge :flowerforyou: I wish you a very healthy pregnancy!!

Good morning everyone! My name is Christi, and I'm 34 years old. I live in Mentor, OH (right on Lake Erie, approximately 25 miles east of Cleveland). I am a CPA and work downtown for a large financial institution in the Accounting Policy/SEC Reporting area. For the most part I like my job, but the months after quarter/year…

Hi! I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism about ten years ago. 1) How tall are you? 5' 1" 2) What was your starting weight? 178 3) What is your goal weight? 120 4) How long did it take you to lose weight in 10 pound intervals? I've lost 22 pounds since May 2. 5) How active are you, and what type of activity? I'm more active…

Ok ..... peer pressure.... I will commit to complete the 1,000 crunches this week. On another note, any good wishes my way would be appreciated. I am going to the doctor tomorrow as I have been very tired - excessively tired. I do have hypothyroidism so I'm wondering if my levels are out of whack. I have been eating well…

Thanks! I can't wait to see where we are all at by Christmas!

I thought of Mission Slimpossible but I really like Walk this Weigh - love that song and love to walk!

I'm on your August Challenge Team and would love to join you in September. Let me know if you still have a spot open. Thanks!!

8/15/11 - 156.0

I will commit to 500 additional crunches this week for the challenge.

I sent you a message but also wanted to let you know here that my recipe is on page 1 of this thread. I posted it Monday morning. It does include nutritional info.

Shorts. I haven't worn shorts since 2002 because I am so self-conscious about my thighs. My goal is to wear shorts on my cruise in March.

What a great idea!! Thanks!!

Thursday QOTD: What nutrition or fitness tool can you no longer live without? For me, it would be my food scale. I bought it about a month after joining MFP and can’t imagine not having it now. I’ve used it so many times that I’ve gotten very good at measuring out a serving size, but I still always use it for confirmation.…

My family booked a cruise for March 2012. I plan to be at or very near my goal weight by then. The cruise itself, as well as all of the new clothes that I will need for it, will be my reward. Although I will be receiving my reward no matter what, thinking about the punishment of seeing myself in pictures with my family and…

Diet soda cake: Mix one box of cake mix with one can of diet soda. Bake as directed on box. Serve with strawberries and lite Cool Whip. I have never tried making cupcakes like this though. Flavors that go well together: Yellow or Lemon or Cherry Chip cake with diet lemon/lime soda or diet cream soda Chocolate cake with…

I really don't like exercising but I did take a body sculpting class in June. It was twice a week, 60 minutes a session. It used light weights and worked out legs, arms, abs, shoulders, etc. I really enjoyed it because I need structure to make me do things sometimes. The hour went by fast, and I did it with my mom so we…

Sounds great! I love the idea of a longer term challenge. CW: 157.8 GW: 127

Well, I did three miles at lunch today!! I am a sweaty, sweaty mess sitting here at my desk eating my salad with grilled chicken, but since I didn't have any meetings this afternoon, I figured why not!?!? :happy:
