I've started a playlist with some of my favorite YouTube workout videos, some of them are longer, some of them are great for a quick workout. I always like to change things up so if you have any favorites, feel free to put the links in the comments below and I will add them!:)

Hey my name is Anna, I'm a friend and neighbor of Sarah's and I am still struggling with being gung-ho about this whole thing. My biggest problem is time. I watch my grand babies and have limited time. However, if I can just get going I can get in the habit and be on the road to health. I hope this will be just the thing to get me going.
Hey everyone!
I'm soooo excited for this competition! My name is Amanda Jasper, I've been struggling with my weight for the past 8 years. Hopefully some friendly competition will do the trick! Watch out ladies...I have a lot of weight to lose!

I'm sooooo ready!
Hey everyone! I'm Hillary, Sarah and I are friends and neighbors! I have never posted to a blog so forgive my tardiness and fingers crossed I'm doing this right!
I am the mother of an extremely active 2 year old boy and have been struggling with my weight for a few years now. I have never been athletic, never was into sports or anything when I was younger, but back then I always stayed very slim. Once I hit my mid-twenties my body just changed. I never learned to eat healthy or enjoy exercise and so I jut couldn't get the weight off and keep it off. I am super excited to have a support system of women who share in the same health and fitness goals! I really think that I will be able to learn a bit from everyone's experiences and stay on track and motivated with your help! I cannot wait to be the energetic mommy my kiddo deserves! We've sooooo got this ladies!

Me, Myself, and I
Hello Ladies!
My name is Sarah and I am excited to get this competition going and to start being held accountable for my actions and what I put in my mouth.
I am a mother of 2 active boys (8 and 2) and the wife of an amazing but super busy man. I have always identified myself as fit and athletic but since having children and having them so far apart has really changed that. I love to play soccer, run (go figure), and do videos from home. I am hoping to start playing on a co-ed soccer team soon and will continue with my other training.
I am looking forward to supporting ALL of you and hearing what I can learn from all of you! I know that starting anything feels very overwhelming and it can be at times but as someone once said, "nothing worth waiting for was ever easy." I CAN do this and so can YOU.

I found this lower body work out on you tube and kicked my butt, so I thought I would share.
lower body work out. Good luck.

Group Goal
I know I don't have to share this but I want to know what some of you think. I downloaded the Lose it app on my phone and for me to meet my weightloss goals I could only eat 1200 calories a day. I am nursing a baby and have a somewhat higher than normal metabolism. I did a practice day today and logged my calories to see just how much 1287 calories is. It's not much. I used them all up by my afternoon snack (and I ate fairly healthy food). I was thinking of putting my calorie goal at 2000. This may not be extra helpful with losing weight but I need to feed my baby and I want to participate in the challenge without setting a goal that is way too easy. Does anyone have experience with counting calories and nursing?
