    Down 4 pounds in 2 weeks! Had an off day yesterday though - ate unconsciously too often. Will try to do better today! Hope everyone is doing well - we can do this!

    I would like to join if you don't mind! I'd like to lose 10lbs by New Year's Eve! That's 1 per week.

    My goal is to figure out the Wii Fit that I have at home and start using it! I struggle with keeping at 1200/day...every day...I exercised more when the weather was better but now that it's colder and darker earlier, I don't walk with my kids anymore.

    How is everyone staying motivated?!?:happy:

    I struggle with keeping it at 1200 a day EVERYDAY too :) It is also getting colder and darker here - I have a garage sale stair stepper that I am trying to use consistently. And I am going to a spinning class. But I really like exercising outside - not looking forward to a cloudy cold snowy winter! I have to say, MFP has kept me more motivated these past 2 weeks than I have been in awhile, so I am hopeful. Let's see if I can get through Halloween candy, Thanksgiving and Christmas and manage to keep losing!

    Plan: 2700cals per day, 1g protein per lb BW.
    exercise: mma sessions x 2, resistance training x 2, HIIT session x 1 (possibly add some sprints depending on my knee)

    Better on Sunday than Saturday! Sunday I managed to get quite a bit of exercise in raking - and it was a sunny warm day, so that was an added bonus. I feel like I am back on track with eating today, so that it good. Anyone else?

    I'd like to join too, if I'm not too late! I need to lose those last ten pounds, which can be a stinker!
    I exercise five days a week but am going to add yoga and pilates in. As a preschool teacher, I can get a little stressed, especially around the holidays. I'm hoping yoga and pilates will help me balance it!

    Doing pretty well with the exercise and eating (in general), but only lost .4 lbs last week. I think halloween candy may be the culprit :) However, I am definitely feeling my pants are looser. Have recommitted to really logging what I eat as accurately as possible. And am going to make sure I do some exercise every day. And up the water intake ... Good luck everyone!
