Lose 15 lbs by Valentines Day Challenge

jchrisman717

Would anyone be interested in a Challenge group to lose weight by Valentines Day? I have about 27 lbs to lose but I want to lose it in a healthy and getting fit manner. So I have opted to lose it slower and if I lose more than that - then great. I plan on doing weight training and combining it with running and/or my Insanity dvd's if I can't get out to run because of the weather. I have downloaded the runkeeper app and the gym hero app to help keep track of workouts.

If anyone is interested - let me know and let's start a group. I'd like to start on November 4 as our first week.

I am almost 50, 5'2, very active and at that age where losing has been a harder task than when I was younger. I need more working out and motivation to keep at it.

Love the idea, but please let us enjoy Thanksgiving and Christmas. The seasons are moving extremely fast as it is.

I do plan on enjoying my holidays. I just don't want to wait until one month before my Valentines trip to try to lose it all. I enjoy working out and hope that by staying on track over the holidays I can minimize any gain and hopefully lose a little.

I would like to join. I have about 17 left until my goal weight (though the number may change up/down as I get closer). I am lifting weights, just started running a little last week, and do fitness blender workouts at home. Weight loss has been slowing in the past couple of months so I think a challenge group would help keep things interesting.

Awesome! I'll send you a friend request.

I have 28 to lose until April - my birthday. The holidays are going to be hard for me, because I am planning on cooking all my favorite foods, but I could definitely do this, as it would leave me with only 13 pounds more until April. Count me in.

Great! I'll create a group and do the invites.

Wonderful! Feel freei to friend request me also. I will get the group up and running sometime this afternoon. Looking forward to doing this!

Also if anyone is interested in using the Runkeeper app and the gym hero app to track - I love my Iphone with my gadgets to log my workouts - let me know and I am sure there is a way we can become friends on those apps too.

Group is up and running! It is called "A 15-Week Valentine's Challenge".

nmf062174

I'm a little late but would love to join you.

carrieosburn

I'm new to this blogging thing. How do I get to your "15 pound group" that you have set up? Do I need to be invited? Sorry I'm not so good with this. Thank you:)

Argybargyy

I'm new to this too and am interested in this challange, i'm a little late to the game but if you're interested in having me id love to try it out.

Bonella

Count me in! Valentine's Day is my birthday and this will help keep me motivated. I'm going to Hawaii the end of April and I want to be at my goal by then.

Looking forward to the challenge!

Im in !!!!

I'd love to do a challenge like that. Maybe that's the motivation I need to lose the last 20 pounds. How about making it a percentage of a person's body weight instead of just 15 pounds? I mean, your 15 pounds may be my 20 pounds and someone else's 10 pounds, just a thought.

Anyway, heck yes I'm down!

tlou5

I would love to join- still have 35 more pounds to lose. Fifteen by Valentine's sounds about perfect

ArtemisRuns

It sounds feasible to me. I am losing at a rate of about 1 lb/week so I should be pretty close to on target for this.

Count me in!

mnbdance

i'm in, although i'm late so my goal will not be 15 lbs but 10 lbs. thanks!

When I saw this post this morning, I thought that I was too late in the game if I was going to try to do this in a safe and healthy way. But after doing some realistic calculations, I think I CAN do it...and even if I don't get to lose 15 lbs.....a mini-goal never killed anyone! I'll check with my mentor to see what she says, but I think she'll agree with it . So excited that it's my first day and I ALREADY have a short-term goal set up!
