I am so glad that so many people have decided to join me in this 30-Day fitness challenge. We have 16 33 people joined so far which is a total of $16 $33 in the pot that is up for grabs to the “biggest loser”. Don’t forget the Senseo Coffeemaker that I am also giving away along with the money pot.
Some of you want to know what you need to do now. Well today is weigh in day. I need everyone to comment with their starting weight and their goal weight. Also if you have twitter list your twitter url as well as a blog url if you have one (I have some of your blog urls if you submitted in the comments earlier but if I don’t have an url for you then put one down in your comment).
Next week, I will show you how to calculate your percentage of weight lost. Also here is a button you guys can snag and put on your websites if you would like. I will keep the competition open for the remainder of the day so if you know anyone that might be interested in joining send them over here.
GOOD LUCK EVERYONE! Let the challenge Begin!!!
I will weigh myself and comment with my weigh in, in the morning after I wake up. I wrote this post in the wee-hours of the morning. Weighed in and ready to lose!
A mother of 2 boys and wife to a needy husband, life in the Diva's household is never stress free. Utilizing all of the wonderful benefits that the 'net has to offer (and avoiding housework if at all possible), the Diva is trying to make a name for her self through her product reviews. Join the Diva on this journey called life as she attempts to become a respected writer or at least pretty darn close to it. 
Ah, what a great idea. Good luck to everyone participating, I guess.
Though I’m not exactly up for it because I don’t have any interest whatsoever in losing weight at the moment. Plus, isn’t unhealthy for minors to ‘diet’?

Curious to hear what others are doing to lose weight during the 30 day challenge. I’m keeping a journal and while not counting calories, trying to eat less all around. Also doing DVD: Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred.

I lost 80 lbs after having my son … good luck! Really, I mean it … Domestic Diva’s plan sounds perfect! Throw in some cottage cheese though, you’ll need the protein.

I plan on eatting my 2000 calorie diet, working out 3 times a week, walking and using my body bug to help me track my weight loss.
June 5th, 2008 at 3:12 pm
Oooh, I would love to participate but unfortunately I’m coming down off a particularly nasty stomach bug and my energy and motivation is precisely ZERO, lol. Word to the wise - gastro has a positive effect on weight but the side affects are FAR, FAR worse than the traditional method of losing weight!
I’d love to see you repeat the challenge next month though - would that be possible? I’m in a rut and clearly need some extra help.
Cheers,
Lizzie
