Slimming Mini - rules.  for every 15 minutes of workout is 3 points

for every 8 oz of water is 2 points, and every pound lost is 1 point.

Ill join

Im 5 ft 1-2 (not sure), Weight 171 and have been steadily trying to loose weight for the past week. Ive been on the stationary bike for at least 30 minutes a day for the past three day and have been eating as healthy as possible.

Great to see it.  We have been doing daily challenges and  weekly personal goals, care to throw one out there. Currently working on 100 crunches for the week (by monday morning) would you like to start with that? 

Can I join too? It's really motivating to be part of a same size group! I'm 32, 5'0". I love my 3" platform shoes! Right now I'm 107. Last summer my goal was 95, I got down to 97, and then gained back 10 pounds over the winter. Now my goal is 100 and then to maintain with healthy eating and exercise.

OH me too! I am like you, orbit! I'll join.

I'm 21, 5'2. Highest weight: 118

currently: 110.

goal: 95

I want to do this through healthy eating and exercise. It's too easy to start obsessing over calories. Whenever I convert food into how long I have to run on the treadmill, it discourages me from eating. So I'm trying to keep my daily caloric intake to 900 and jogging on the treadmill like a retarded mouse to burn 300 calories/day. It seriously takes me like 45 mins :(

300 calories is like 3 pieces of chicken.

We'll see how long this lasts. Good luck everyone!!!

Hi lihelen! Good for you for working out. I like running on the treadmill too. I know you think 900 calories a day is enough, and maybe it is for a short awhile, but eating like that isn't enough to keep your body away from starvation. What'll happen is you'll wreck your metabolism and harm your overall health. Be gentle on yourself; if you get to your goal through developing good habits it won't be so stressful!

I weighed myself today.  I am down to 165.4.  My starting weight was 186.  My goal weight is 130.  I am not one of those people that looks good really thin.  I am built a lot more curvy than I am guessing most of you are.  Those of you trying to get down under 100, just remember that muscles weigh more than fat.  Don't get caught up in the number more the appearance!  I am sure you all look great and I hope that one day I will be where you all are ie 5 pounds to go! :)

One more thing.  This is for the run-down people "we've all been there".  I think if you are too tired to do full bore activity the best thing to do is do what you can.  My body kinda crashes once a week.  What I do on that day is just walk at a moderate pace while I listen to uplifting music.  It always makes me feel better and sleep better so I can hit the gym as hard as possible the next day.  Walking is a really good exercise and it burns about 250 calories an hour.   Good luck.  Just remember, something is better than nothing.

hey there ladies, I'm still new here, is there a way we can do weekly emails for weigh ins?

Hi all, for those doing a water challenge, this is a great site. Just add it to your google desktop and click each time you drink a glass.

Happy glugging...

What day should we do weekly weigh ins cocowan?

hi all, I started a thread to weigh in on Sundays.

Hello everyone! Heres my info:

Height: 5'2

Age: 27

Highest Weight: 177

Lowest Weight: 125 (years ago)

Current :137

GOAL: 115-120

Foutine: cardio 4-5 days/week-5 miles on the elliptical, 1hr on treadmill, or 1/2 hour on arc trainer...weights 3 days/week

Diet: i have to start from scratch b/c i just got diagnosed with an additional stomach problem so i can have no nuts or salad and have to have a low fiber diet.  So basically that leaves me with cereal and chicken.

I need this because im losing hope i can reach my goal

Hey!  I post on the other thread and never realized you'd set up this one as well!

This week, I am working out everyday (except Thursday when I have an interview) and drinking at least 3 liters of water per day.  So far I have done good- worked out today and yesterday and done well with the water both days.  Woohoo! 

Oh, and about weigh ins, where is the other thread?

tgbrown,

I started a tread for the Sunday weigh ins. I will do a new one next week so that our most current success are at the top.  also doing a Wednesday Cardio Challenege, did you see that thread?

I did see the cardio challenge. I am totally up for it!  That means 90 minutes of cardio tonight!  You know you can just keep this thread open for all weigh-ins and cedit the original post?  That's what some of the other challenges I am in do- the original poster (e.g. you) will just list everyone's names and change their weights after weigh in.  It could take more work than you want, but it's an idea!

tgbrown,

I would do that but I'm not sure how to do that.  tell me how and I will do.

Alright folks it's friday, make you fitness plans for the weekend and post them here or motivation, in addition to my treadmill, I am lawn mower racing and camping, No, this isn't a typo. what are the rest of you doing?

cocowan- since you started the thread, you would have to do it if we weigh in here.  Or, start a weigh in thread and do it there.  But, on the original post there is an edit button to click, just like with comments.  All you have to do is edit the original post, and next to each person's name post their weights.  I posted another weigh in thread below so you can check it out.

Oh, I get it now, I'll start this weekend. weigh ins are on Sunday so this will be perfect.

thanks tgbrown!

Hello all, been working on updating weights and starting info.

Please look to see if the information is correct and that I didn't forget anyone.

Also don't forget that it will be updated on Sundays when you weigh in.

If I don't get new information, I will leave the most current info.

If you would like your name removed just let me know, and I will do that asap. 

btw Thanks to tgbrown for telling me how to post the info!
