61 days and counting! Anyone game?
If you are, just reply to this discussion board with your goal weight loss for the next two months and check in every Monday with your weeks results. Let's encourage one another on and check in every week with how we are all doing!
I'll go first:
Current weight: 143.8
Goal loss per week is at 2lbs totalling 8 weeks= 16 lbs goal loss
Goal weight by November 31=127.8
Thanks for coming along! I can't wait to hear how everyone does!

It's that part of the month >.>. A week or so after that ToTM I seem to gain ib and don't get any sort of additional weight loss until a week or so later when I drop a couple of ibs overnight (ovulation I guess? sorry TMI maybe). Sooo irritating but what can you do? I'm not too upset as I can feel the difference in my clothes; I'm just going to lock up the scales for a short while lol.
Nice idea to put the scales away for a bit! Don't allow that to consume your every thought! Think on the things you did right last week and remember to drink at least 8 8oz glasses of water or more each day! Keep up the good work!0 -
Ok, here goes week 3. It looks like my GW was a little too aggressive, and I may not make it. But I'm still happy with my results so far!

Let's do this!!! Yes, my starting weight was the same! I haven't budged at all with vacation last week, but I'm back on track today!Current weight: 143

I am going to jump in too. I was mostly intrigued to jump in because we are starting at practically the same weight and my end goal is your Nov 31st goal but I am a few weeks behind!

Need help guys as I have been hovering around 118 to 119 kg for weeks.. my fault because I get lazy by not tracking intake
I am doing 30km a week running and cycling 45km .. but lose it all with not keeping a close track with food. Any buddy out there in Harrow London HA1. Got to break the cycle and get to my 110 kg by Christmas
All the best to you and Welcome!!!0 -

My Turn... After three weeks, I have to report that vacation took a spin and I'm right back to the beginning! But I'm poised and ready to get back up on that race horse and make it to the finish line! Has anyone else had a rough start? Share your thoughts if you'd like!

ENCOURAGING WORD...
The changes that have come about in your life will have greater than normal impact on your future. I would like to encourage everyone everywhere that these simple changes taking place in lifestyle choices do take time to create long lasting effects! As I've learned over a 10 day vacation to see family, it is hard sometimes to stay on track when eating out, attending football games and (the such). However, it's through the challenges that we persevere! Let us persevere together!
Stay the course! If you've fallen down, pick yourself back up--it's a brand new day and we get to have a do-over if we need one! When I was visiting my grand-daughter on my vacation we saw Cinderella (2015 Disney version)... And I came away with the simple message that could hold true for all of us! HAVE COURAGE AND BE KIND!
HAVE COURAGE this week to make it your best! No one is watching what you do, but you are here on this journey and we all have a common thread--we desire to be healthy and active! Losing weight is a grand start!
BE KIND to yourself and to others! I sometimes find that when I've made unhealthy choices it tends to reflect on how I treat others. Even though it may have been a rough few weeks, take some time to take care of you and treating others in good ways makes one feel better about who they themselves are.
Have a fabulous day!0 -
