I will update once I have gotten measurements.

Hm.. this one looks really good, dare I join? I was actually saying to my husband today that I think it is possible to me to get to 145 lbs for Christmas. 10 lbs in 3 mos doesn't sound like much but a) even at 11 years old I was not under 150lbs, I was tall and BIG, so my body has never "been there" b) I've been at 150-155 for two years. Body composition has changed, but not weight. c) I just can't seem to get under 150 lbs no matter what.

I was actually thinking of posting a challenge that lasted from now until the end of the year, a major effort for the last pounds type thing.

Ok. I'm in.
Goal: to get under 20% bodyfat OR get to 145lbs OR get to the point where my obliques are visible. Either or by the end of the year will be good.

Current Stats:
Weight - 155
Height - 70 inches (5 10")
Neck - 12.5
Bicep -
Under Bust(exhaled) - 31
Natural Waist -30
Belly Button - 33
Hips - 38
Butt - 39.5
Upper thigh - 23
Above knee - 15
Calves - 14.5

Here's to some smaller numbers in 2 weeks!
This will be one fit thread come the enw year.

I did notice that none of the "other guys" (Challenges) had an end-of-year deadline, so I said to myself, "Why not?" I am still a member of other challenges... to keep me on my toes, and I like to wrap the year with a grand slam challenge (Like this one!)

Korry

Sure, no problem...

I certainly hope you will make your goals... Theres one way to find out

FRIDAY WEIGH IN:

Hey, super sore today from yesterday's workout. All of the TOM and cheat days gain is gone, plus another half Looking forward to friday's weight in.

Meg, Korry,

Thank you soooooo much for the cheers and encouragement. Means a lot to me! I really hope that the stats move downwards and not upwards on Friday. You know how this goes, but still, I do not get discouraged. How can I be dscouraged with all your support????

See ya.

The great thing about this challenge is that even if our numbers don't move every week we can't give up doing the things we know are healthy and right because we're accountable! At least for another few mos
Keep in touch! this is keeping me on track and helping me to not eat the cheese off of half of my husband's pizza.

take care,
Meg

Hi,
I was hoping there is room for one more. I really need to get serious. What better way than to just do it. I did my measurements for the first time. I wish I would of done them in the beginning. Well, I think this is the place for me. I need the encourgement and I will also give it back. I was thrilled to see the results you all have had so far. I have been off the diet for 3 week maybe 4 now and I forgot how good it felt to see the numbers go down. So if it is not too late here are my stats.
Weight 10/13/03 261
Shoulders 50", Upper arms 15", forearm 11.5", wrist 7", Chest 46.5", abdomen 53", waist 40.5", hips 51.5", thigh 31", knee 19.75", calf 20", ankle 11"
I will not be here on friday I am leaving for a weekend trip. Before I go I will try to check in and if not I will check in on Monday. I am going to try to stay off the scales until then. Seeing I have a fixation with them.
Thanks, Holly

Oct 31-255#
Nov 31-245#
Dec 31-235#
