Hi I am new to this forum, and I'm not well acquainted with making and keeping goals. So I am going to share my May goal with you guys so that I can't pretend like I have no one to dissappoint lol! So I have always hated running and abdominal work. Most of my fat is carried in my abs (which is really unhealthy), so this month I will work do an ab circuit every day of the week except rest day. And as far as running. I want to make a better time on a mile by the end of every week

Happy Monday!!! Here is our quote of the day:
“Inside some of us is a thin person struggling to get out, but they can usually be sedated with a few pieces of chocolate cake.” - Anonymous
Melissa – Super great run schedule. You continue to be a major beast (in the best way) =D
KanCrav – Nice quote. =D Motivational ones were actually what I was looking for, but I just started messing around.. lol.
Finn – 5 months! Is the wedding keeping you busy yet? I feel like that is where I started having more to do. 10 inches since March sounds spectacular!!
Lostalykat – Glad you're back!
Shannon – Girl!!! My hubby's family is just like you are describing your parents. IF it is cooked in house it is like total decadent comfort food, but we wind up eating out a whole lot. I definitely agree with Leela BRING FOOD! Last time I went I brought peanut butter, apples, oatmeal, some pre-cut veggies in baggies and my own fat free dressing (basically packed a little cooler).
Another thing you can do is look up the nutrition information for the fast food chains or restaurants you know you might be visiting (like if you Dad loves McDonalds... have a plan). You can absolutely eat out, but often if you don't plan you wind up eating something crazy that you thought was ok. That will also help you find out which places ones you prefer if asked. It can be super stressful to be questioned about why you are not eating what your family “normally” eats, but have some way to say or remind yourself that you are making an important change and why. Also if you have a smart phone there is a My Fitness Pal app!!! Makes it super easy to track your food and exercise.
Have an exercise plan. When I go visit my in-laws (who I LOVE) I plan on getting up early to do SOMETHING... run, walk, exercise dvd. Be realistic about what you would do (like I wouldn't want to Zumba in front of my father-in-law haha). And have fun!!! =D
Natalie – Welcome! I've been off the wagon for a while and am also trying to break out of the 160's! Seems like I can't get myself into the 150's... but now that I'm back to bringing it I'm looking forward to seeing 15_ before I get pregnant. Congrats on nursing school!!!
Leela- Great job in April
Allie- I am not a Sex in the City fan.. but I have seen that episode!! so funny! I think I have been tempted to take stuff out of the trash before... confession time... but I think I MIGHT have done it once to something completely packaged... that was also on top of the trash...
AFM- Had a good day today. I normally take Sunday off exercise-wise. Ate well. I did pig out on some mini marshmallows just an hour ago while catching up on Dancing with the Stars (the only sweet thing in my house right now besides fruit!), but then I chucked the rest of the bag across the room!!! A minute later I was went reaching for them and was like.. hmm.. where did they go?? lol. I didn't eat any because I didn't want to get up and get them. I say that was a pretty good strategy on my part. Exercise tomorrow to start the week off right! Run and JM. Cut up a watermelon and packaged it into servings to eat in event of a sugar craving and planned dinner for Monday night.
Currently working on a bad case of heartburn from said marshmallows.... Going to finish DWTS and read some of my pregnancy book. Have a busy but fun week ahead!!

Todays news is awesome. His death does not justify the loss of thousands of American family memebers in the military but It does give us a reaon to stand a little taller today.
Happy Monday Kiss *kitten* MFPers~!~!0 -
Hey everyone!
Sorry I wasn't around yesterday-I got busy cleaning the house from top to bottom and running other various errands. As for April
mkingraham (Megan)- Lose 7 lbs, strength train at least once a week (we're going to start easy), and run 3 times a week.
Well I started April at 223.5 and when I weighed in on Friday the scale said 213.5 which would be 10 lbs gone!!!! But then I promptly started TOM on Saturday and so the scale this morning says 217, but my fat mass is still where it was when I weighed in at 213.5- so While at this exact moment in time the scale say 217 which would be a 6.5 lbs loss I am calling my 7lb goal for April total *kitten* kicked!
I have been strength training in that I have been doing boot camp once a week, but its not strength training in the way I really want to so I don't know that I really accomplished that goal, and I am pretty sure I ran 3 times a week so I feel good about that! I am excited for May and have some seriously exciting goals this month!
I want to get to 208 which would be a total loss of 43 lbs and would put me half way to my goal! so that is 5.5 lbs this month assuming that my 213.5 that I saw on Friday stays around. I also want to put some serious effort into strength training so that I can drop another size. I have definitely lost enough weight but I think things need to tighten up so that I can lose some more inches.
Other then that I can't wait to keep kicking butt with all of you lovelies!0 -

Hey everyone,
great job in April!!!!! I never ended up posting a goal for April, but it was pretty good overall. I managed to stay in my 5 pound weight range between 130-135. I had some extra indulgences with travel, and friends visiting so there was some ups and downs but I guess that's to be expected. I have been doing a lot of running and got a PR in the 5k. This month I will be doing a 10k end of May, so I will be working towards improving my time in that.
This month my goal is to stay towards the lower limit of my weight range and to enjoy life, exercise, and social events and not dodge anything that may involve unhealthy food or drinks. I need to be able to do social things, and just use moderation.

My goals are pretty much the same as in April -- with the exception of actually breaking out of this plateau I've been at for a while now! ugh So this month I am wanting to continue to workout at least 4 times a week, drink tons of water, finish the C25k program, and break into the 140s!

Good Morning Lovelies!! Happy Monday!! Happy May!!!
This month already seems to be off to a great start...everyone's enthusiasm and energy has been renewed by the start of a new month and everyone is in full gear to do some major *kitten* kickin!! The death of Osama bin Laden just adds to that enthusiasm. A HUGE thank you to any and all military people and their loved ones.
Gonks - great job on killing your weight goal!! I imagine that is a great feeling and look forward to feeling that myself one day.
Allie - with April completely behind you, I hope that May is a little easier on you!!
Shannon - good revelation!! I will ALWAYS take a loss as a win and not complain about it!!! Hope you are able to find a good balance while you are visiting with your parents and also out in the field. I would definitely pack some snacks and/or lunch and plan ahead as much as possible. My mother gets upset when I don't eat her cooking as well but I choose not to indulge in high calorie, high fat foods. I have told her that I would be more than happy to help with the cooking but she continues to make her foods. I refuse to let my hard work go to waste because she wants to continue to live an unhealthy life. Hopefully you have a great visit though!!
Kandace - somehow I wasn't on the April list either. It might have been during my downward spiral so I never came up with any goals for April. I your enthusiasm going into May!! Make sure that being nice to yourself is also on that list!! And a HUGE congrats to meeting your April goals. I your May goals too!!
Rachel - I your May goals!!! One day at a time!! Hopefully you and I will both be able to finish the month strong (yes, I know we just got started)!! I know we both have been struggling to stay where we need to be mentally so lets make sure to keep each other on track and see the journey and not just the struggle!! You are on your way to a kick *kitten* baby bod!! And I the quotes!! I'm a sucker for quotes so it will definitely help me out. I will try to post one every now and then.
Melissa - I have had to explain visiting my dad at the cemetary a few times to my kids. Glad to hear that you are happy where you're at!! :drinker: I imagine it took a lot of hardwork but being there must feel amazing!!
Cait - great job on losing inches!! When I was on my game and doing what I needed to do on a regular basis, I noticed that the number on the scale really never fluctuated much. As I stopped working out and eating right, the number on the scale went up a little but my clothes no longer felt comfortable. I wish I would have taken the time to take my measurements again because I am sure I would have seen a difference. Lesson learned and I think I will make it a habit of taking my measurements at the beginning of each month.
Leela - congrats on meeting your goals for the day!! It is definitely a great accomplishment when we actually do it!! :bigsmile:
Megan - Woohoo!! Great job on kicking *kitten*!! I think you will definitely meet your goals for the month!! You are so good about your workouts!! Weren't you the one doing the clean eating also?? How is that going??
AFM...had a long, busy, crazy but fun weekend. Friday night my brother and I had a much needed heart-to-heart about the changes that are taking place in our lives right now. He has always been the one there for me through all of the stuff that we have gone through so I know that he is the one that I always need to turn to. Had a birthday party, date night, and helped move stuff out of my grandma's house. Went to look at a room for rent on Saturday morning but the room was tiny!! Going to check out another one tonight. I am hoping that something will just fall into place!! Not too stressed about it just yet. I am gonna take some time to think about my goals because I want to finally be able to start and finish a month without throwing in the towel at any time. I wish I had a phone that had the MFP app cause it would be easier for me to stay accountable. Oh well!!
Hope everyone has a great Monday!!0 -
Good morning everyone!! It has already been crazy and I have not had enough time to read everyone's post. But welcome all new and so glad to see the returning friends.
@wannabrn10- I am planning a september 2012 wedding as well. Yay!! We totally have time to be healthy and happy through this whole process. How much total do you want to lose? Add me as a friend.
AFM- This weekend was good, I did acupuncture on Saturday and as much as I wanted it to fix all my ailments it did not completely. But I have to say after a few days I am feeling better than I have in a while. I get a blood test on Wednesday so we can rule out anything like anemia or pre-diabetes. I am excited for this. I also start training for my next Triathlon this week! Yay!!! I am really excited to focus on getting healthy and in shape for this race and do it the right way, which means not partying the whole time during training. I drank some wine on saturday and I think that induced the headache. but after my saturday episode I have felt great. I really hope to get rid of these headaches for good, my acupuncturist thinks we can do it so I am ready to give it a try. The good thing is I wrote down everything I put in my mouth over the weekend. I didn't track or log the whole time but at least I wrote it down. I also only consumed 2 -3 beverages a night which is huge considering I was drinking a lot more in april on the weekends. I am going to hit the ground running this week and get back to being healthy in general, I can't wait to feel slim and trim in my bikini, it will be a little more work but that's ok. I am OK with the fact that I took all of april as a break from everything. Now I am ready to really tackle this goal of losing 15lbs!0 -
Natalie – Welcome! I've been off the wagon for a while and am also trying to break out of the 160's! Seems like I can't get myself into the 150's... but now that I'm back to bringing it I'm looking forward to seeing 15_ before I get pregnant. Congrats on nursing school!!!
Rachel- Thanks! I am glad to be apart of the group! I like reading everyone elses goals...makes me think of more that I could have. It seems that the weight is easy to take off when I am in the middle of the numbers ( like 167-163 was no prob!) but when ever I get to the bottom to get into the next weight catagory it is so hard!0 -

Well, my progress seems to have come to a hault. Probably due to my messed up schedule.. and too many times grabbing the easiest thing to eat at the moment. I'm in serious crunch time with the wedding (40 days away) and now it's exam time at school. I hate that my schedule isn't guaranteed to be in my control or the same day to day anymore.. I'm also really disappointed that my wedding is basically here and I'm going to look not even close to the way I wanted to look. The date is so close now.. there's not much else I can do. Ok, sorry to be a Debbie Downer... way too much on my plate lately! I'm having a melt down at least once a week now. :ohwell:
As far as my goals for April- don't think I lost any weight. I did a great job with water intake though. And there were 2 weeks I could only go to bootcamp 2 times a week instead of 3 or 4.
My May goals- not really going to set a scale goal since I can never meet them anyway. I just need to do as much as possible before my wedding.. keep up with bootcamp as much as possible (exams, wedding vendor meetings etc are going to make that more difficult)
Sorry my goals aren't more concrete, or exciting for that matter. At this point I kind of have to roll with the punches and make sure I survive this time with the least amount of stress possible.
Good luck, everyone! I'm so glad it's a new month..!

April wasn't that good a month for me as I would have liked. I didn't counr calories---wasn't in the mood & probably worked out half the time I intended to. I just didn't feel upto it last month but I'm going to make May count!
April Goals:
(1)Lose 4 lbs, (2) Run 3 times/week, (3) Run 3 miles on the treadmill by the end of April, (4) Do strength training 3 times/week.
I lost 3 lbs and managed to run 3 miles at a stretch.
Now onto May:
(1) Lose 4lbs to reach 133.5, (2) Do 30 Day Shred 5 times/week, (3) Count calories everyday, (4) Update on this thread at least twice a week :happy:
I think that'll be enough for now. I'll continue running but won't increase distance...will try and increase speed though. Also need to start eating fruits again but I'll add that as a goal later...don't like them and again bored of the ones I had been eating the past few months.
Good luck everyone!!0 -
