Ok people, I am determined to get bikini body ready by the time mid-spring gets here. Since the first day of spring is March 20th this year, that gives me about 8-9 weeks to get cut. I want to lose about 20 lbs (less is ok as long as I get the visible muscle definition I want) if i break it down that means I need to lose 2 - 2 1/2 lbs a week...totally attainable right?!?
That's where you guys come in! I need motivation, and I would like to have a fun group of people to chat with, encourage....support and get the same back.
I don't think I'll be bikini-ready in 8-9 weeks (I'm not a beach person anyway), but I'll definitely be working out along with you guys in hopes of looking great in summer dresses and skirts!
Thanks to 3FC I'm finally happily sticking to a healthy eating plan, and I'm going to incorporate more and more toning exercises while continuing my cardio work.
Bikini Body... I just want to look decent in any bathing suit!
LOL -- I have a drawer full of Bikinis form my 128 lb days
I have 6 weeks before we hit Siesta Key for Spring Break-- would love to be down 20. I have already lost 5. Doing the Cardio thing and Free weights, plus 1200 cals a day. Good luck to you and have a great vacation no matter what you weigh!!!

I think you will....you have about the same amount as me to lose it seems, maybe 5 lbs more? You can so do it!!! Welcome to the challenge though, it'll be fun

hehe....20 lbs, you're on!! Although like I mentioned, with how I want to gain muscle definition, I'm not sure all 20 will come off. BUT if not 20 lbs then the goal is to see a washboard stomach and it doesn't jiggle when I run!

I was getting ready to say the same thing! I am going on vacation in May and want to have a decent enough shape by then so i don't scare anyone at the resort. Granted.. i am going to the mountains in Oregon... they still have an indoor pool which i do plan on utilizing!
ooo i'm definitely in! my goal was for my birthday (april 29) but i'd love to see how far i can get in a few weeks here. i want to lose about 20 lbs but like sara i'm more concerned about tone and how i look than the actual weight. i had the flu last week but i'm ready to hit the gym again tomorrow!
Oh my gosh I am so excited about this. I dont have a pound goal. I am not weighing at all through this because I get too caught up on numbers. Anyways my long term goal is a bikini bod and short term is to fit in to my dress by my banquet this Friday. I have already been eating really healthy with a major calorie cut for 2 weeks now. I have been exercising hardcore for almost a week. Its just one size too small. We will see. Anyways I want my bikini bod by.......mid may. It can be done I just need support!

haha I had my "last supper" at Red Lobster tonight, and i was VERY bad. but it was sooooo good!! hehe I'm going to hit it hard tomarrow with my first hardcore workout, it'll be upper body training and very light cardio. i'm going to take my measurements tomarrow morning and post them on here to use as motivation, then i'm going to update them once every two weeks. anyone else want to be up for that challenge with me? every monday will be an official weigh-in day, and every other monday weight AND measures. who's game?

You might want to check out bodyforlife.com and look at their fitness plan, i forget exactly which link on the site or page it is on....but that is the training schedule i'm using. it yields great results from what i've seen of their success stories of the diet plan and training program combined. i'm not using their eating plan, just the fitness routine because it's exactly the type of workout i need to get cut quick.
you can join us on our pose-off bikini pics in a few weeks too! woohoo!!
Show me that bikini body!!!
I have an intense fitness program myself that i'm starting tomarrow....I'm dreading it but excited at the same time. 
I definately want to see results pics...no homo! hehe
Hoping for a Tankini Body!
I got it in good
