weighing in and plan of attack

Options
I'm not going to weigh in and post my goal until Monday 2 September as Monday is my usual weigh in day.

My plan of attack is as follows:

I took 18 months to lose my original 50+pounds/25 kgs. For various reasons (cough midlife crisis cough) I put some back on and I want to lose about 7kg/15 pounds. I think it reasonable to try to lose it in three months. I can't face taking forever again!

So I am usually vegetarian and do 16:8 and 5:2 intermittent fasting. I also really want to watch my cals and eat really healthily with just little treats (mmmm Lindt dark strawberry chocolate).

I try to exercise 6 days a week. Mostly that will be taekwondo three times a week, bootcamp twice a week (only runs during school term times) and running one or two times a week.

My challenges will be that tkd and bootcamp only run during school term, so I need to get motivated to do something else in the holidays.

Feel free to add me as a friend if you like.

What is your plan of attack?

    My weight is 70kg and I'd really like to lose 5kg by the end of November: summer's coming very soon!

    Basically I plan to plan. I need to know what I'm eating for each meal and be prepared. I know that stops me from reaching out for whatever's around if I get hungry.

    I also plan to get back on my treadmill and increase the amount of time I spend exercising, which is always a problem!

    My cw:198lbs
    Challenge gw:180lbs
    Total goal wl: 18lbs
    Plan of attack: stop the binge, plan all meals ahead of time ,package and label all foods the night before, keep safe foods around at all times (mostly berries and veg) for when I get snacky. Excercise 5 times a week, videos and walking/running. Log every single bite every single day and stay in touch with the challenge group! Keep positive and focused so that our disney vacation to orlando during thanksgiving doesn't ruin my progress! Feel free to add me as a friend !

    Hello my name is Barb and I would like to join the group for support. I recently lost weight for my daughters wedding in June but have picked up 5lbs.
    My plan of attack is to journal everyday, some type of exercise 3x week I have started back walking. I am currently in school so it tends to be overwhelming and takes up a lot of my free time. It also is a stressor and I am a great stress eater :(. So hoping be accountable weekly will help get me through the next 3 months.

    CW 206
    GW 190
    Loss 16 lbs.

    I always weigh in on Sat is that ok?


    Good luck to everyone.

    Hi, my name is sky, I just started on my weight loss journey, and what better way to kick it off than a challenge right? I have toddlers to take care of and its so hard not to lick off the spatula or finish their food! I weigh 271 and I want to weigh 250 by the end of nov. I think to accomplish this my whole family is going to have to eat better to not tempt mommy and have lots of fruits and veggies. Also I plan to get up at 4 in the morning m-f and hit the gym at least for one hr before my husband gets up for work, ok well good luck to everyone :)

    My current weight is 148lbs. My goal is too get back down to 140lbs.

    I reached my goal weight Feb 2012 after losing 100lbs. I maintained the loss over a year but gained 10lbs back this year. I've been really struggling to get back on track.

    My workout plan is to restart Staonglifts 5 x 5. Also running at least 2 per week. I will also do yoga once a week

    I'm a vegetarian and will be focusing on eating clean and healthy food. Also need to cut down on drinking
