Sizzlin' Summer Size Challenge
 
We all know that in the end Size really DOES matter! Here's a chance to jump into a challenge to lose the inches and pounds to shrink yourself down a size or two! The End date is June 21st - first day of Summer!

So post often - get support - and watch yourself shrink into a cute and smaller swim suit!

I'm here! I want to be firmly in size 16's. I'm starting to incoporate some of Jillian's (TBL) workouts into my schedule so that will definitely help.

Enygirl 04-22-2008 09:05 AM

I had a HORRIBLE weigh in today! I'm UP #3 from where I was on St. patty's Day! :eek:

Luckily for me - I'm going to work my butt off and LOSE THIS WEIGHT!
I need to read the book Shay - and get a better grasp on what I'm doing... I need to stop talking myself out of work outs... I need to wake up an extra 10 mins early and do a power workout.. IT'S ONLY 10 MINUTES!

I NEED TO BE A SIZE 12 BY JUNE 21ST!


Ok girls - apparently I should be working when I'm here and on the clok :lol: I'll check in later! Hopefully to many more girls joining in!

MEMEME!! I am in a size 10 now and I want to be in a size 8 by summer. If I stick to my goals I will be >150 by then.

I weigh in and measure tomorrow so I will update then.

What kind of exercise are you all doing? I am trying to walk/run 4x/week and do some sort of toning/strengthening/stretching 4x/week.

iriswhispers 04-22-2008 11:54 AM

joining in from the earth day challenge. i just want to drop one more size - i have pants in a size down that no longer fit me but they DO mock me from the back of my drawer!!

smurf i am hoping to strength train 3x a week (i have been slacking on that!) and walk/jog/run 5x a week. although i need to note that i used to take middle eastern (aka bellydance) classes and the icon w/ my signature is a little reminder for me that i need to start doing that again!

I'm soooo in!
 
Hi everyone! :wave:

I've been losing weight and shedding inches but I haven't gone down a size yet! I'm a size 8 right now but I would love to get back down to a size 6. I even have some 4's from a couple summers ago, if I could button those I would jump for joy! :trampo:

smurf2110 04-22-2008 01:13 PM

I hate that there is such a difference in sizing! I have some jeans (levi brand) in a size 10 that fit me great (legs are a little baggy, but that I think is more the cut) but then I have some capri that are a size Medium *which is equivilant to a size 10 I think* that I can barely get up over my butt :)

So I am going to be more specific. I want my Levi brand jeans to be a size 8 and I would really like to fit into my many many pairs of capri that I bought on sale in the hopes that I could wear them last summer-didn't get there-so this summer for sure!

lumifan4ever 04-22-2008 04:49 PM

I will join!!! I would like to be a size 2 by this summer. Which may also be a more comfortable size 4 but a size 2 all the same. (and we are talking misses size 2...not juniors. I'd like to be a size 5 juniors and a comfortable size 7 juniors in all brands.)

My plan is to either go to cardio class 3 times a week and work out in the main cardio equipment room once a week or go jogging/walking 4 times a week 2-3 miles a time. Or a combination of the 2 listed up above.

Enygirl 04-22-2008 05:15 PM

I'm so happy to see so many joining! :) I've fallen in love with Non-scale challenges.. although I may start weighing more again to stay more accountable!

I just finished a mile walk... and I'm going to do the 3 mile video tonight after I get home. That will give me my hour for today.

My *plan* is 10 min video in the AM - walk in the afternoon after work, generally w/ DD - and a video at night after DD goes to bed. I know there's NO WAY I'm going to find an hour solid of time I can spend working out - so splitting it up will have to do! :D

OK - I've done 20 mins so far - 40 more to go!

mrsaugie 04-22-2008 05:32 PM

count me in i would like to be 12 maybe pushing a 10. this is perfect because i was think of working on lossing inches instead of pounds for the month of May.

sexybrokechick 04-22-2008 05:37 PM

I'm looking to be back in a Misses size 14 by 6/21, hopefully close to a Misses size 12. At this time last year, I lost my focus so I'm doing these challenges to keep myself involved and active with this lifestyle change. :)

Grazer 04-22-2008 05:54 PM

Count me in. I'd like to be in a comfortable 12 by then. I'm planning on getting more core exercise in to help get me there.

smurf2110 04-22-2008 06:05 PM

Eny I have to split my workouts up too. I work from home (mostly) with 3 kids there is no such thing as an hour to myself.

I did a 30 min. pilates/cross train workout this am
20 min. soccer/racing with my son (he is fast and agile I thought I would have to let him win-not so much)
I am also hoping to get *me* time with a 40 min. walk/run later tonight.
I also do 100 calf raises and 100 toe taps while I do the dishes, and 3x15 pushups (on the counter the cheaters way) throughout the day.

Misses vs Juniors maybe that is the difference in my pants-I know the levis are misses and I would bet the capris are juniors-thanks for that ahha moment :)

I am looking forward to my first weigh in/measurements tomorrow I feel good about it!

missjanel 04-22-2008 08:24 PM

Hi all!

I would love to be a size 12 by June 21st. I am not really sure what size I am as I refuse to go shopping since I had my son 5 months ago. I think that I am a size 14 or 16.

I love the support that I get from you all here at 3FC.:D

Talk to you soon,

Janel :spin:

I'd like to join! I really need a kick in the pants!

I'd like to be in my size 14's by June 21st (baggy size 14's!)

These last couple of weeks have been rough exercise-wise, because I kept injuring myself. I'm feeling better now, but the next two weeks are going to be rough because I have finals and end of term papers and projects. But I'll try to get in a work out at least 3 times a week, and then bump it up once this miserable semester is over.

Good luck, everyone!!!
