"3 Months 'til Glory"..

[MontanaRebel]

Need a partner to help in both losing weight in the next three months! Any takers? :wave

[FightingTheFight]

hey Montana, if you are still interested, I will be willing to join ya!

I have a "six Flags" challenge" for myself, which is three months long. Last year I had a hard time fitting into some of the rides....And now I can't wait to slide into all of them and not have to worry about it!

I was hoping by the end of the summer I will be more than ready...so what do you say?

[MontanaRebel]

ok your on for the challenge! Cool! :icondance

[FightingTheFight]

Ok then we need to set this up...

How do you want to do it? Monthly weigh ins? Bi-weekly? what else you want to add? exercise regimens? I am telling you man, me and you could definantly do this hardcore.

also you should change the title to something snazzy! lol

[MontanaRebel]

I have never done this before so if you have any suggestions do it...

I start rehab on Wed and get weighed in three times a week but we can go for two weeks at a time. I have to start slow on a tredmill because of heart disease...

[FightingTheFight]

If you have to start slow thats fine by me...any exercise will do. Its going to be horrible for you though, getting weighed that many times a week. remember Your weight will fluctuate and be sure to read all the "Whats wrong with me why am i not losing" threads to gain confidense.

The best Idea I have about going about this is to do it the supportive way.

We don't have to post every day at a certain time but lets keep up with each other, concerns, discorages, Ideas, ect. I am a seasoned atkineer, been studying it for long time now. this is actually my second time changing my Way of eating so if you have questions I think I can answer them pretty quickly.

I am also going to post my workouts...keeps me motivated and I suggest you do the same....anything....maybe a few crunches driving to work, a walk up the stairs...anything will do.

But anywho...tommorow is my 1 month anniversary, and your first day, so we can start it off right! I won't be able to post till the end of the day because of work...but be sure to check in tommorow let me know how you are doing on your first day!

Rember your water and good luck!

[FightingTheFight]

Also,

I was thinking of renaming this thread to something like "12 Weeks to Glory" challenge, or the "Blast Fat Fast" challenge..hehe...any ideas?


Heres are some more things I thought about.

Since you have to weigh that many times a week...only accept the two week number and post it.

Weigh ins will be June 6th, June 20th, July 4th, 18th, Agust 1st, 15th, and finally the 29th.

Its going to be fun I think! also if you have AIM and what not feel free to IM me.

[MontanaRebel]

Ok sounds like a plan!

I just got up for my first day on the plan and to sleepy. lol

[FightingTheFight]

Alright, an interesting day today.

For one, my extra Large Scrub pants I wear, I put on today are to big! they kept falling down off of me everytime I sat down or bent over. Which is all amazing since 3 Months ago, I was wearing a 2x.

I worked my butt off today, but still managed to come home and do some crunches and I plan on doing some situps tommorow. Speaking of tommorow, I will be buying a Punching Bag and afew other items I am going to be putting in my crapping home gym I put together lol

Eating was alright, I didn't get to eat as much as I wanted to, but I did consume about 150oz of water, which is still cool!

So how was your first day?

[MontanaRebel]

My first day went quite well...

I got out and walked for about 10 minutes which was very hard but managed to get if done.

I think I will do quite well on this program. ha

[FightingTheFight]

Congrats on the walking, and I agree its an easier program once you actually let it be!

Sorry I haven't posted in a few, been dealing with some home issues.

I came across a great deal at walmart. they had a 120lb weight set that even came with a full size bar. Now granted, it isn't the greatest but it will suffice for the time being. I am creating a program I call, "Hercules Training" It contains alot of strength training that is going to melt the fat away.

My eating was great today. I made steak and broccoli for lunch and dinner and have consumed about a gallon of water today.

BTW, Can you change the title of this thread to "3 Months 'til Glory"..instead of "weight challenge". If you dont know how to do it, just go to your very first thread and click "edit" then change it in there.

Hope to hear from ya soon!

[MontanaRebel]
