We have the exact same start and goal weight! I want to join this group! Exactly what I'm looking for! I've got a wedding to be in in June and birthday in august ☺️ would love to be back in a bikini!I started my journey just this past Sunday and want to lose a total of 38 lbs by July so let's do this together!!
Starting weight: 168
Current weight: 164
Goal weight: 130
Total loss: 4 lbs
I am trying to commit to working out for at least 60 min at least 5 days a week. So far I've done 4 days in a row. Today I really didn't want to but I forced myself to and so glad I did.
As for food I'm trying to eat as clean as possible and trying to get all the proper amounts of nutrition...protein, fiber, carbs etc. However, calorie intake trumps that. So if I eat something not so healthy I'm not worrying about it or beating myself up about it. I'm just making sure I'm not going over on my calories and if I do then I have to work it off.
What are you ladies doing? Should we check in daily or weekly to help motivate each other?

I haven't lost anything in 6 days. And that's wirh exercising half of those days and eating healthy and under my calorie goal every day. I thought for sure I'd be down today after going for a run AND doing an intense workout at the gym yesterday. But nope. I was up a few ounces.
I know...keep going!....it takes time!....and I will2 -

I'll bet you that one day soon you're really gonna have a good drop overnight.
If there's some water weight hanging on, try filling a big jug (think sun tea jar) with water, peeled & sliced cucumber, sliced lemon, and grated ginger. Let that soak in fridge overnight and start drinking that. Fill it up again for a few days, then do it over again. Makes me drop water weight, and tastes really refreshing!
Plus "keep going!....it takes time!...." lol2 -

It could be a small weight gain from muscle too! Keep going! U can do this! I remember when I lost 30 before I hit a barier weight and just had to be super persistentI haven't lost anything in 6 days. And that's wirh exercising half of those days and eating healthy and under my calorie goal every day. I thought for sure I'd be down today after going for a run AND doing an intense workout at the gym yesterday. But nope. I was up a few ounces.

Dear Lauren,

count me in
start weight on 3/27 155.4
goal weight on 8/27 125.4
I want to loose weight at a rate of 1.4 pounds a week so that will put me at the end of August to loose a total of 30 pounds. My weekly goal is to loose 1.4 per week, my goal by May 29th is to be under 143 pounds, my 5 month goal is to be at 125 pounds. So far I have lost 29 pounds. My ultimate goal weight is 125, that would put me in the exact middle of the healthy region for my height according to the CDC website. Again, according to the CDC, I will no longer be in the overweight category when I reach 143 pounds so I'm very excited to reach that milestone along the path to loosing 30 pounds.1 -

For all those struggling with being tired, sore and in pain...
"Weight loss is NOT a physical challenge, it's a MENTAL one!!"
Only your mind has the will power to push through the struggles of the physical challenges. Keep pushing and we will get there!!1 -
Good message : )
I'm so sore today. Need a rest day. Walk or run maybe but no boot camp.1 -
This is to forget what the scale is saying and to focus on the NSV's!!
"Even if you can't physically see the results in front of you, EVERY SINGLE effort is changing your body from the inside. Never get discouraged!"
I know for me, I have way more energy since I've started eating healthier. Also I haven't had a migraine episode in over two weeks which is rare. I'm not sure if this has to do with my new diet and exercise but I'm going to say it is!3 -
I love this! I haven't had a change in the scale yet but I'm going to keep pushing! It's harder to get away from the baby and get to the gym but I'm going to push to get there when she lays down for the night tonight. Thanks for ur motivation !This is to forget what the scale is saying and to focus on the NSV's!!

There you go! You will be so proud of yourself for going afterwards. I know it can be tough with babies. I have a 20 month old who does not like it when I try to workout at home. She stands in my way and tells me to stop. So we have been going for 6 mile walks this week. I push her in her stroller all around the neighborhood and she usually takes a nap so there's no fuss. Win/win!

That's awesome! My daughter is 2 and has started hating the stroller. I might try pulling it out at nap time that's a great idea!There you go! You will be so proud of yourself for going afterwards.

I'm late, but can I be a part of this?
I was on fire, but I had a two-week set back and I need some more motivation. Weighed 192 at the start of my journey, but I've been stalled out for a few months.
Starting weight: 177
Goal Weight: 150 or below.
I will weigh in each Sunday....what day is everyone else weighing in?

Quote time...sorry so late in the day but maybe this one will get us motivated to work out over the weekend!!
"You can feel SORE tomorrow, or you can feel SORRY tomorrow!"
Mini weekend challenge: Try to do at least 30 minutes of exercise both Saturday and Sunday. Whether it's walking leisurely because it's your rest days or kicking butt at a hard core work out. Remember that something is better than nothing. Happy weekend everyone!1
