Hey Girls!!! I had a real busy weekend. I worked as a waitress at the pool at the resort where I work. They slaved me; worked 8-9 hours straight non stop w/no lunch break. soo I am pretty sure I lost a couple of lbs just on the 3-days I was out there walking back & forth in the hot.

I am ready for this Sept. challenge. My goal is to lose 8 lbs by Sept 30. Hope everyone have a nice day & an awesome week!!!!!!!!!!

Total lost: 5.2 lbs 2.6%

Total Calories Burned 8/29: 7552

Total Calories Burned 8/22: 5221

Total Calories Burned 8/15: 3841

My only challenge for the week was beat my cal burn from last week, which I did. HORRAY FOR ME!!

Water Challenge I drink (6) 16 oz cups of water during the day. = 96 ; While I am at the gym I drink (2) 12 oz bottle of water. So total of oz H2O = 120 oz per day. YEPPIE FOR ME!!!!!

I dont think I was soo hard on myself this month. I lost 5.2 lbs. I am ready for Sept challenge. My goal is to lose 8 lbs in Sept.

Lets keep the good work ladies!!!!!!!!!!

Total Calories Burned this week: 5221

Crunches were like 200 (i will do my best for the 700 challenge)

Total Calories Burned Last Week 8/15: 3841

I already drink a little more than 100 oz per day of H2O. but I will definitely keep count to know exactly how many oz of water I drink every day. Fruit/Veggies I am definitely on for that one to.

27 yrs old, 5'7. I enjoy working out heading to the gym everyday afterwork has been a great way to stay motivated & stress free. Has not been easy being a single mom of two. But If I can do it, anyone can. In 10 weeks I have lost 28 weeks, most of that was by joining CC (counting cal) & lots of cardio. I weight myself on Fridays soo I will be putting my #'s on Fridays. Good luck & lets stay together to stay motivated.

CW: 193 (8/15)

GW: 175 (by Halloween)

Next GW: 165 (by Christmas)

I think the best thing to do. is not have a scale at home. (take it to your friends/family house & tell them to hide it & only let you go weight yourself once a week) I think if i had a scale at home, I would really be crazy about it. I only weight myself on Fridays & thats it. I use the scale at work, & I have to go down to purchasing dept.

Hello! I know its hard. but if I been doing it. You definetely can. My thing is I refuse to go home after work. If I hit the house I will never come out. soo best suggestion is go to the gym right after work. I do it just about every day during the week. After picking up my kids after work, I hit the gym. I take my workout clothes with me. Its really hard to stay motivated specially if you dont have a gym buddy. But the best motivation is going to the classes like kickboxing, aerobics, etc... if your gym has those classes I suggest for you to go to them. Thats an hour of workout already. On days that there is no class, i hit the elliptical w/my ipod. Will - power........ You are here already soo that is a big step already.

I been getting compliments all the time. Everyone at work, my family, my b/f, my best friends. They all had seen me at my highest 254 lbs for a couple of years. After I had my baby I went down to 225. & then it was when I started working out & being aware of my cal intake. Now I am at 193. From a size 18 to a 14. Since joining CC I have lost 32 in 10 weeks. I feel better than ever.

Discovery i have found. not really me, well yes i can say me too I am noticing. But everyone at work has made comments to me how slim I am looking. And they keep asking me what I am doing. The comments my co-workers say to me are pretty good. Makes me feel great & just want to keep going & going.

Hey Guys! just stopping by to say "Hi & Hope everyone have a nice week!". I dont really log on during the weekend, but always go back to read the postings. I hope all you guys that are injured feel better. Keep the motivation going, it really helps. :)

I gained a pound :( . I had been good for the past two months loosing 2-3 lbs a week. well i guess thats what i get for not working hard enough. :(((((((((( I am ready for a challenge this week. Last week I didnt enter the challenge me being sick & then my baby. I am ready this week to start & focus. Any ideas Paul?

Ok... it looks like everyone is doing very well. I am glad for you guys. I been bad. no exercise at all. This weekend I was really lazy. The longest walk I had was probably to my car. Well its Monday fresh new start right. Well I am going to start to hit the gym again this week. Good Luck everyone.... ohh also I will take paul_y other challenge. I think I go up/down the stairs like 10 times a day at work already. but i will keep track to know exactly. :)

Great attitude! Welcome back.
