YOUR Goal by July 4th (weekly log)

Hi, Fitness Pal Community! I tried looking and didn’t see any goal threads, so I thought I’d make one. I participated in several of these in 2019 and they REALLY helped me reach my weight loss goals! Unfortunately the quarantine has my summer closer a bit more snug than I’d like.

July 4th is six weeks away! I am going to set a goal and track the next six weeks! I prefer to do my weigh ins on Friday mornings, but feel free to log whenever you’d like! I am going to set my starting weight tomorrow morning!

Thanks to everyone who participated in this challenge with me! I may set a new one for a Labor Day goal if that’s okay. Feel free to join that goal as well! These mini challenges help keep me accountable! Even if we miss the mark, in most cases, it’s progress!

Friends- I did just add a new challenge for Labor Day! I hope you’ll consider joining me! You’ll find the thread in the same location as last time.

Maybe the excitement about hitting goal will help curb the overindulgence this weekend 😬

I am hoping the same thing!

I didn't reach my goal, but the scale did go down so I'm happy. And, I'll be joining the Veterans day weigh in. So, see everyone next Friday. Happy Weekend!

Viewing this progress with a skeptical eye. Scales have shown "Unstable" many times, lowest was 229.0 on 6/28. I have been working out more than ever (college ballet class, active Zoom ballet classes, in addition to under-desk biking). My exercise minutes average 2 hrs per day. I have only seen a drop in weight when I have stuck to the before exercise number and not exercised. However, I'd rather work out to gain strength and retain my sanity at home (out of work since April, Covid hot spot) than haggle over weight and stay put. Although I found pretty much the same high numbers for these workouts for my current weight across the web today, I will try to eat back only 1/2 to 2/3 of them to see how that works out.

Hi everyone! I'm joining a bit late.

Starting Weight: 130
Goal Weight by July 4th: 119

Friday, June 26th: 131.6
Friday, July 3rd: 129.3

Final Weigh-In on July 4th: 127.7 Perhaps a bit too ambitious with my weight goal, but I was able to identity and henceforth rectify bad habits in my eating patterns, specifically not eating enough and binging as a result. Lesson learned.

Totally agree! I am running close to 3 miles a day and losing weight this time around is much harder (yes- I’m still counting calories and not over eating workout calories). While I know it would be easier for me not to work out, the muscle and definition I am gaining is also rewarding. And I’m sure the other benefits are also good!
