    Hi I am Deana, I am new to this challenge thing and should clarify my anchor. I am not Navy, though I was Army for a short stint, until I broke my back. My anchor is for my favorite Bible Verse, Hebrews 6:19. We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. This verse inspires me and always gives me hope.
    I am not sure where I am supposed to weight in, but Monday is my day and I am having a great one. I know it's probably all water weight but I am down over 8 pounds this week and I feel like dancing and singing. I have been eating great, and even started a workout program, so I feel good. I know it wont always be this great, so I am celebrating it while it is here.

    My Stats:
    Height 5'9"
    Age: 45 but I claim 29
    Highest Weight: 275 ( Dec. 2017)
    PW(4/29): 270 pounds
    CW(5/6): 261.6 pounds

    My goals are:
    Short term: Lose 15 pounds by May 18 - my graduation day!
    Lose a total of 100 pounds
    Do Aquafit 2 times a week
    Walk 3 times a week
    Get to feeling good again.

    Please let me know if I need to do this differently. Like I said I am new to this but ready to learn and be a part of the team.

    Hello All!

    I'm 5'4" and currently 138 lbs.

    My goal is 125, and the last few lbs are kicking me in the butt - so I am ready to push HARD to get to where I need to be!

    My hobbies are horses and board games. To lose I have been calorie counting and doing a little bit of running/increased exercise.

    I'm really excited to be a part of the 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!

    I'm in Madison, WI. What a small world :)
