Lose weight the fun way.

I started that one before Xmas only got to day 4 then decided to join this challenge. I’ll try and stick to this calendar but not sure yet. I may jump around. How do you like it?

I like it! I love to lift weights, and those workouts are short and effective

What an amazing first workout! So much sweat and all the jello legs!

Hi! I’m Jen. In 2020 I lost 113 pounds and have been living the amazing life I didn’t live before the weight loss. I have done great at maintaining but got in a bit of a funk these last few months and gained 20 back. I joke that it’s 20 lbs of happiness, and it is! But I’m excited to be a part of this motivating community and to try new workouts, new recipes and get my body back to feeling as close to 100% as it can at 40!

Sweaty selfie #1!

How long does it take for the initial weigh in to be approved? My first was rejected due to not being able to see through my legs (the floor). But it’s been over two hours since I resubmitted new photos (after I had eaten an egg).

There's probably a lot of submissions with it being new year. Did you get the email stating new one was received?

ChrissyCD

Usually couple hours after they email to say they received it & are reviewing it. But considering how many people are in this group , it may take a longer.

My first photos were not approved, and then when I didn’t all again, I had started eating breakfast. Will that mess everything up?

Oh boy. I guess if it takes that long to approve, I’m gonna be 5 pounds heavier (water, coffee, eggs).

the weigh in doesn't have to be today. Just try again tomorrow morning. There will be a new weigh in word to use however.

Happy Weigh-in Weekend! Hopefully by now, everyone has saved and looked over the workout calendar (if that’s the one you’re doing) and all of the super helpful nutrition information. Remember, these next four weeks will work if you take the time to prep, plan and focus on making the needed changes. Don’t be scared…this is all about finding those healthy changes in your day to day that will help you accomplish your goals and turn into long-term, consistent, healthy habits!💪
