  • I had some time so I posted the results of our first week on the first post. From now on, I will update that each week. If anyone else puts in a 2nd wt this weekend, I'll add it if I had time.

    We all did awesome!

    And remember, new people are welcome too! We are a small bunch and the more, the merrier!

  • Welcome alexs-hot-momma! Yeah measurements can be a real eye-opener... just try to be active this week, especially toning type exercises like crunches, planks, lunges, squats, etc., and measure yourself in another week. Even a little bit of the right exercises can make a big difference.
  • No changes for me yet.
  • Count me in... :)
    Cool thing is I took my measurments on 12/29-

    thanx! that is for sure... serious eye opener! i had a crazy busy day today, but i managed to use my elliptical while dinner was cooking and i did some squats while i waited for the food to be done.. lol. it is funny tho, i used to eat these cheese bread sticks, maybe 2 of them. I made them for dinner and looked at the calories. WOW! 250 for one. So not worth it. i kinda wanted one, but i am proud i didn't eat one. Just took a bite of my little girls. lol.

    going to work on doing more toning exercises. sometimes my 3 yr old like to do them with me, that always helps!
  • Joyra~I will post my measurements in the morning. I had to work this morning, didn't have time to do it. Sorry for the delay in posting results! Pat
  • I know I am starting really late, but this sounds like fun. If you don't mind.
    I have lost 50 pounds since last year and have 50 to go. I'm working on it.

  • I'm going to tally our results from week two TOMORROW (Saturday in Asia) so if anyone has a new set of measurements to post, please do! Of course, you can post your measurements anytime and new members are always welcome but I see some of you had some good losses so I'm sure the scoreboard will be shuffled.
