YEA Trying!!!!! holy wow! you've done absolutely wonderful with your loss!!!! Kudos! (-:

:guns LET'S DO IT, INDEEDY! :guns

what've you been doing for exercise?? i was doing Power 90, and got into a really good groove with it....then my boys came for the summer and i just let myself go....i was absolutely hedonistic. ah well, at the time i thought it was worth it. *ha*

now, i'm back into ketosis - and will stay on induction until Monday...then move onto OWL and i've broken out the tapes, and i'll start the P90 program again then, as well. i really want to do the Couch to 5K...and i just may incorporate it in as soon as i get back into a "mean-lean P90 machine" groove *hehe*

**welcome to the challengeDieselbud!!** (-:


during the previous one, there were only 3 or 4 active participants and we did do a weekly weigh in and it worked.... but, i guess it really depends on how many join the challenge, hm? i'm not familiar with the workings of the larger challenges though...so, hopefully it'll stay nice and cozy and small in here! *hehe*

But for now - every Monday morning is a weigh in. :guns

[Dieselbud]

That's GREAT! Mondays are my weigh in days for the Xmas challenge to!.

I haven't had a loss for 3 weeks, so be prepared, I feel a BIG wooshie coming to me :yes

[Trying Hard]

Thanks Redneck!!!! I had a little bit of a stall for 2 months but the scale is finally starting to move again I lost a pound the last time I weighed. Hopefully by Monday I will lose a couple more. For exercise I belong to an all womens gym called Lady of America. I do alot of their classes such as spinning, step aerobics, and body sculpting. If I do not do a class I usually jog on the treadmill or elliptical machine for 30 minutes and then do weights. Well good luck to you can't weight til Monday!

:wave Welcome aboard Dieselbud and good luck to you as well!

[redneck_girl]

ha! thanks Db - it's fairly easy for me to lose a lot of "weight" fast like that *it won't stay like that at all*.....i'm really most happy at losing 1-2lbs. a week; it's keeping it at a steady 1-2lbs. loss - that's the hard part!

KUDOS on your loss!!! 22lbs. gone F O R E V E R for you! WHOOP! no room to complain about that, ya dig! :guns

hope everyone's havin a decent humpday!!
