    I would like to join...I am aiming for about 60-65 pounds. I am hoping to be a sexy MILF by next summer, lol. My hubby has never seen me in a bikini and would love to be able to actually get into one and not look all chunky and frumpy.

    Amen, sister!! I am the same way!! Would love to be a MILF, and I haven't worn a bikini since I was 9 yrs old!! LOL Next summer, mark my words!!

    I'm up for doing weigh ins and monthly goals if anyone else is. I normally weigh in on Sundays, mostly because my other mornings are pretty hectic with small children, but would happily adapt to whatever works for the majority.

    I'm so excited! I have a gym membership, but I haven't gone a lot this summer since the kids are home, My husband works on a land rig so he's gone 7 days at a time and it's hard for me to work out. Normally when I ask him to go walk with me he doesn't want to because he's climbing steps all day and doing so much physical work. Today, I asked him if he would at least start walking with me and he's decided to go to the gym with me 3 days a week when he's home!!!! I seriously think this is what I need, I've never had support from anyone in losing weight! I hope this works LOL!:smile:

    Congrats! That's got to be really motivating! You can pick up a 5 lb pound of sugar the next time you're in the grocery store and it'll really kick in how much just 5 pounds is.

    Sunday can't come soon enough as that will be my first weigh in. I've felt really good all week and even my chocolate cravings don't seem to be an issue. Hoping it continues as this is just week one of a long journey toward a complete lifestyle change.

    Hi,

    Hope it's all going to plan.

    Overall I'm looking to lose about 60-70lb and have lost 26lb over the last 6 weeks or so. I'd welcome a place to share the ups and downs etc. Anyone in a similar situation feel free to add me as a friend etc.

    Cheers,

    Al.

    I recently knocked my goal down by another 10 lbs, I realize that I'm NOT a "Large" frame person, like I had been told I was all my life, but in measuring my wrist and my elbow, I'm definitely a medium framed guy. :bigsmile:

    I'm 5'11" and I'm now running and cycling a lot, so I want to be lean and strong, not big and strong. I think for my size and age, 46 years old, 175 lbs should be good.

    I'm at 264 pounds now, but on June 11th I was at 300 pounds. I had 125 lbs to lose, but now I'm down to 89 pounds, still a long way to go, but I'm working on it daily. I cycle a lot and I am going to start my week three of the "Couch to 5K" running plan.

    I'll check in daily to see how we are all doing!

    Cheers!
