    I’m new to the team, hello I was trying to understand the discussion board!
    I go by Ka and I’m in he process of moving to attend my grad program- but I want to be in shape and lose some weight before it starts.
    CW 207
    Ideal weight: 150

    My goals are to log what I eat even if I choose poorly and eat a whole bag of chocolate ( hoping not to)
    Also I want to train for a marathon and bikini competition ( so cardio and weight 5 time a week)
    Im hoping in completing these goals I’ll lose weight!
    We got this team!

    WEEKEND PLANS?????

    What is everyone doing this weekend?

    I have a 5k tomorrow morning, then breakfast with the girls afterwards. After that - HOUSEWORK!!! Sunday I plan to pack us for trip 1. A full week of stuff in only a carryon (Beka's rules) Trip2 will be to my daughter's - not as stressful :)

    Like I posted in my intro, due to my crazy schedule, I am also moving to support squad for May and will be back in June.

    Tomorrow morning I am meeting with a trainer at Planet Fitness to go over some new equipment and some other moves to add plus walk; its finally stopped raining in WI as it has been cloudy and pouring rain all week; I tell ya, seeing sun for the first time in 6 days really helps with motivation!!
    Sunday, going to a pet shelters open house where they have kitties up for adoption....ever since my cat passed 4 weeks ago, my other cat seems lonely and I may get a companion for him....
    Then probably a walk, hitting gym and prepping for week....

    Hey there, where are you in Wisconsin? Im in Kenosha!

    Yep, I'm in Oak Creek :)😘 practically neighbors; if you want to meet up to do a workout, let me know; I'm a black card member of Planet Fitness!

    Certainly! I used to be a member there but another gym in the area closed and they all came over to our planet fitness and it was just too crowded! :( We can definitely get together sometime though! :)

    Can you DM your email to me? I tried to DM to request it, but the message failed.

    Linda has agreed to help with the captain duties since I will be MIA a bit this month.

    Everyone give a bit round of appreciation for Captain Linda!!

    Btw - I promoted without asking 😊😊😊

    Hi everyone, my name is Lisa I’m new to the group and am joining from New Zealand. I’m used to working in kilos so I’ll be using a few online calculators to keep up with the pounds 🙂And the time difference will mean I’m posting at really odd times to you all! I’m a Mum to two boys aged 3 and 6, I work 2 jobs and have some volunteer roles also. Life can be pretty busy but apart from trying to find more time for me I wouldn’t want to change anything.
    My weight has always been a struggle, I’d hate to write all the different programs I’ve tried and the various gym memberships I’ve held, but I always end up back where I started!
    I don’t have time or money to join a program so have been trying to do things on my own, planning and tracking food and exercising when I can. Motivation however has been low and it’s lonely! My husband tries to be supportive but he usually says the wrong thing and I get hurt or mad so I’m trying to keep him out of it now.
    I look forward to talking with you all and hopefully having some success on this journey!
    PS I’m a MyFitnessPal rookie and don’t know how to add people etc 😁

    Welcome!!!

    Week 1
    Monday
    PW: 222.7 lbs
    CW: 222.5 lbs

    Feeling a little disappointed as my weight got down to 221.4lbs on Saturday but has bounced up since. I'm trying a new eating protocol, so may take a couple weeks to see if it is working, but it means I eat more on weekends and less during the week (so in a way it's not surprising that after 2 days of eating more than normal my weight would bounce up).
