So, the month of love is rolling upon us. It seems as if this is a fairly small group, which frankly, I love. I'm wanting to start a challenge, by month, whether its pounds lost, minutes excersized, or water drank. So, I'm putting it out there for me, I hope you ladies<men too, if we have any!> will join me, and if not, call my name every week so I can be accountable. So, here's my challenges for me.

I WILL lose 8 pounds in the month of February.
I WILL do 120 minutes of cardio in the month of February.
I WILL do 60 minutes of weight training every week in February.

For me, once it's in black and white, once I've said I WILL do something, it's become a promise, so, now I have to do it . It's a silly method that works for me.

I hope some of you join me!

I'll join you. I start phase II on Friday.

Here are my challenges for the month of February.

I WILL lose 6 lbs in the month of February
I WILL do 4 hours of cardio every week in the month of February
I WILL drink 450 oz of water every week in the month of February

YAY!!! I'm so glad y'all are joining me! Good luck ladies and may we ALL meet our challenges!

I would like to join in to. I'll be just starting with Phase 1 on Feb. 1st. Since I am not sure what the standard amt of weight is to loose during phase 1, I will estimate as best I can.

I will loose 10 or more pounds in the month of February
I will work out 5 days a week. (1 hour each day)
I will drink 8 glasses of water per day.

Okay, I'll join too!

I will lose 10 pounds in the month of February.
I will exercise for at least 200 minutes per week.
I will drink 8 glasses of water per day.

I would like to join your February challenge too! I recently went to a speech by Dr. Ian Smith and it was fantastic. Besides the fact that I want to try this diet I signed up for a local "Biggest Loser" and if I get picked on Feb 5th I will start this diet February 9th. Even if I do not do the contest I will start February 6th.

I WILL lose 10 pounds in the month of February.
I WILL do at least 30 minutes of cardio at least 4 days a week in the month of February.
I WILL strictly do Phase I of the Fat Smash Diet in February.

Ok - here is mine.

I will reach or exceed my maintenance weight goal in February - only 4 lbs to go (but I will take a few extra, haha).

I will continue to Jazzercise a minumum of 5 days per week

I will up my running for 30 min/day, 3 days/week to 5 days a week.

I will go back to my full body weight training in Feb 3 days per week. (I am just doing arms now).

I think all that will be easy except running 5 days - the treadmill is so boring. I can't wait for warm weather!

Some of you already know this but I agreed to post bikini photos by May 1 on here - anyone else want to join me in that challenge as well? You can cut your head off, we just want to see those slender bodies

Good luck to everyone! WE CAN DO IT!
