The bootcamp consists of a minimum of four classes per week : cardio kickboxing, bags, body sculpting and a bags+body sculpting combo. ... tonight was my first session (body sculpting) and it kicked my butt! (sorta like how it felt the first time I tried 30DS). I just KNOW this bootcamp is going to help me in this challenge!

    Reward? This is going to sound weird, but I'm going to get a bustier/corset. I've always wanted one : I think it looks downright awesome with jeans and knee-high boots, either over a white blouse or on its own. see pic (not me. I only wish I was that thin!) What do you girls think?
    I also would LOVE to wear a corset top. I posted one in the "what you want to wear at goal" I cant wait to look awesome in one. I think thats a great goal. On the other hand the classes sound awesome and butt kicking haha good luck!

    I am totally with you on the love handles. That's why I want to wait until NY to get mine. Right now, the love handles/back fat just pop everywhere and I look like a poorly stuffed sausage.... in a sexy lace-up corset. LOL

    I'm curious to see the corset top you want, but can't find your post! Could you post the link again?

    As for me, I really want a double lace-up (one on each side) underbust corset. They're just so darned sexy! Hopefully I'll be able to find one in black with pink or red ties. Haven't seen one yet, but that's the kind I see myself wearing in my head.

    Keep up the good work, everybody!

    Well I just joined here, and I'd like to lose 18lbs by New Years. Currently at 198 and I'd like to get down to 180. This is my first post here but I've started getting serious about losing weight about 2 months ago, and I've been doing about 2-2.5 lb a week on average so I think I can make it. I also agree on trying to drink more water.

    I just reached my Halloween goal one week early so I am definitely ready to set my new year's goal. I want to be hit 299 by 2010 so I can start the new year off in the 200s. That means I'm looking at needing to lose 31lbs between now and then. Completely doable for me as long as I stay on plan. I have been averaging a weight loss of 4.5lbs a week for the past two months.

    Well here is to hoping we all get into our corsets, and welcome to all the new ladies. Are we going to start a weigh in day?

    I think that's a great idea! Since the New Year falls on a Friday, how about we set that as our weekly weigh-in day? It'll be easier to see our progress week to week that way, IMO. What do you guys think?

    I think that will be a good idea to have Fridays as the weigh in day since New Year's Day is a Friday.

    Friday sounds good to me in case we do go a little crazy on the weekends (Even though I hope I dont) btw Cara I love your new avatar, for a moment I thought you were new to the thread. You look so pretty and happy!

    fridays is awesome for me. I agree with teh weekend shoot up in weight. Atleast it will give us a week to get it in control and at the same time not freak out over a fluctuation.

    FRIDAY it is!! yayyyy I am excited
