I started today. I had a great day and am totally on board. 83 days to go :)

25 lbs to go!

Can't wait to get up and do it all again tomorrow.

Good luck to you!

I have done challenges before but I still have weight to lose and would like to join you guys!

Good luck to you both!

I started on the 2nd as well - although the long-weekend wasn't the best time to start, it was the last day to start this challenge.  I've lost about 50 pounds over the past year and a half, but I've plateaud a bit and thought this challenge would be a great way to refocus and really set some concrete goals.

Good luck to everyone.

so how was your first day or so? still on track?

Thanks! so how was your first day or so? still on track?

I started on Sept 2. I have about 20lbs to lose! Made it through the holiday and still PUMPED!

So far so good, how about you?  Did you start on the 2nd as well?

My start date was September 2nd as well...glad to have the support online.  Good luck everyone!

Hello all!  I started on September 2nd also!  Today is the start of week 3!  How is everyone holding up?  I have lost 10 lbs so far.  I know it will slow down soon, but it is some nice motivation!!  

Nice work jenmarie.  I also started on the 2nd and I'm down 15 pounds at this point, but I too expect that to slow down now.  So far I've been able to make it to the gym 6 days both weeks and so far my only cheats are 3 light beer.  Good luck the rest of the way.

Wow 15 lbs in three weeks that is fantastic, I must be dong something  wrong because Im three weeks in and maybe Ive only lost  5lbs, may I ask what are you doing for cardio?

For cardio I do 15 minutes of running 4 days a week before workouts and then I run for about an hour 2 days a week.  On top of the workouts I play recreational sports 2 times a week.  I've been extremely strict with my diet and eat 5 times a day, every 2.5 hours - eating lots of vegatables, a little bit of fruit, protein shakes and lots of natural protein (chicken and fish).  I've pretty much limited my carbs to brown rice, quinoa and couscous.  As I indicated, I suspect my weight loss will balance out now to a couple of pounds a week and obviously everyone will lose at a different rate.
