This is going to be a fabulous year and an absolute win for the blue team! I can feel it!!!!!!!

My info: I'm 37, have a live in BF (I call Boblian ~ half Bob, half Jillian in his efforts to keep me motivated). He has promised 1/2 carat for each 10lbs I lose, not sure if I believe him, but I'm willing to find out! I have 4 kids (DS 19, DSD 9, DSS 7, DSS 4). I work full time, hate to cook, and tolerate exercise. I need all the motivation I can get girls! I love music, I love photography, and I can't wait to weigh 150!!!

On Plan means I drank my water, did my exercise (30 min daily), and stayed under 1600 cals. Let me just tell you, I am totally committed to this challenge for my health, my general happiness, and a huge Blue Team win! I wish everyone a safe and successful challenge and look forward to learning more about ya!

Lets do the dang thang!

NIX: That is such a great challenge you have with your hubby for the 1.2 carat per pound thang! Good luck!

I get a professional camera from my DH on the day that I weigh less than him

OP, WW flex, 24 pts/day. Walking and exercise ball. Getting an elliptical next month.

I'm 49, married, 2 grown kids, I live in Ne and am a die hard Husker fan.

I'm Andi! I am 30 yrs old, married and have a 9 yr old son. This is my 4th TBL challenge on 3FC.

What does On Plan mean to me?
*It means drinking my water (64-80 ounces) and eating between 1200-1500 calories (or 27 Weight Watchers points).
*It means that I take my "me time" and go to the gym or workout at home 4-6 days a week.
~ boot camp (Tuesday &/or Thursday)
~ gym 3 days a week other than boot camp
~ DVD's (Turbo Jam/TBL) or Wii games (Wii Fit/Jillian Michael's 2009 Ultimatum)
*It means that I journal my water/food/exercise daily (I need to get better at this) and blog.

Me too. I eat nonstop when I'm bored which is all day. But it's not just sweets... salty, too.

I'm Heather. I have done two challenges though last challenge I dropped out about midway due to lack of motivation and personal life craziness! I'm a vegan and a runner (slowww runner). I am an auditor with a public accounting firm so my life is getting ready to be hellacious and busy. In addition to my normal busy work life I'm taking a CPA review class on Tuesdays and Thursdays form 6pm to 10pm. I'll be around but not as much as I'd like to be!

OP = keeping my calories under 2,000 (I try to range between 1400-1900), drinking my water and moving some everyday with one day a week allowed of no exercise.

I'm feeling so much more motivated then I did last challenge and ready to lose some fat!

For me would be when I get up the next day and CAN'T walk! I walked up 4 flights of stairs 3 times friday and my calves are still burning!

Ah now see I hate the squats and lunges...but love the stairs. I often do 20 flights during my daily walk at work. I'm thinking of upping that to 25 for this challenge!

Hello Blue Chickies! I am so excited to be here! Good Luck to each of you! Let's get this Party Started!!!!!I live in Kentucky this is my second round with the BT

I really enjoyed getting to know people. I lost 26lbs with the Blue Chicks before, I plan to be succesful this time as well. Staying on plan for me means 1500 calories daily,64oz water,and 30min exercise 5x weekly.

Djay- I saw your pictures and you look awsome!!!Congrats on your success!!!

[DisgruntledOne]

20 flights *gulp* no wonder you won the crown!!!
Ya know I watched an old episode of BL and she had them doing squats on the stairs!
Since nobody really knows me here I may need to tell yall never take me seriously.

I KNOW you've had an um "exciting" year at work! For some reason they never told me in school that in your 3rd year of work your "busy season" is ALL YEAR LONG!! It's just worse in the 1st quarter!
Glad you're on blue this time .
