Who has 80-100LBS to lose?

KatiePeca

I'm looking for some support buddies on my weight loss journey!

I just had out LAST baby 7 weeks ago and its time to finally start losing all the cummulative baby pounds I put on in the past six years!

I would love to reach my goal weight before my baby turns one and I have to return to work! So, I have 10 months, I'd love to lose 91 pounds between now and then, landing me at 175 pounds, since I am tall (5'11'') that weight will be just right for me!

Anyone with similar goals? I have three small kids at home, ages 5, 3 and 7 weeks, so I have limited time, I just ordered 10 minute trainer by Tony Horton to do with DH, and hopefully over time I will be able to stack those workouts and make a nice quality session from them!

I'm so tired of failing, I want this time to be THE time, I want success, I want a healthy me, and I need buddies!

I'm with you! I have 5 children and have yet to lose the baby weight. Problem is, my youngest is 19! Welcome to MFP! I'm new too so perhaps we can be a good support for each other.

Good luck on your journey!

Oh my, I'm horrified. I just did the math and once this baby comes I will have about 75lbs to lose. I'm due June 13th or before... Feel free to add me. I've been on the site for over a year. I lost about 12lbs before I ended up getting pregnant again. But this does work if you are honest. And the support here is amazing! Good luck on your journey, you can do it!

gailygail99

I am in the opposite situation than you. I do not have any kids but want kids and need to lose weight in order to be healthy enough to have kids. I just started my journey and have 160 pounds to lose. Good Luck with it.

upendrah

Plz count me in. I am currently 268 and would love to lose 90 pounds in 10 months. Thats 9 pounds per month and more than doable. My overall goal is to lose 138 ponds for a gial weight of 130.

KatiePeca

Well it looks like I am in great company here! Thank you all for jumping in!

My 10 Minute Trainer is supposed to arrive by June 10th and then I'll start with that! For now I am watching my foods, drinking more water and trying to get out walking with the baby!

I get pretty wicked headaches from exercise, a byproduct I am sure of being so out of shape, so I am easing myself into this!

What are you all doing to get losing?

We are the same height and have the same goal weight. I started out on 1/3/11 weighing 332.4 lbs. This past weekend, I weighed in at 267.2 lbs so I have 92.2 lbs left to get to goal. My whole mentality has changed this time around, and I am confident that I will make my goal. Good luck to everyone.

I'm officially starting Chalean Extreme Monday and continue with Zumba.

I was doing alternating lunges in front of my 14 month old and she just laughed at me and tried to mimic the moves. Too cute!

When I first started my transformation I cut all of the garbage out of my food. Right now I am eating a lot of the same thing over and over (until i figure out other things I like) and just started out by walking as much as I have time for during the day before I go to work. Last week I went out and bought a new Mountain Bike so I could add riding into my routine. So I am planning on Alternating days that i walk and ride (to change things up as well as give my butt a rest from the seat!). Also, the other day i saw someone mention www.onehundredpushups.com and thought this would be a good thing add on the days that I walk. I plan on starting this today. So far I am down 21 lbs since May 1, 2011. Hopefully I can keep it up, another 12 lbs and I'll actually weigh what my license says I weigh! Good luck to you.

I think that sometimes the repitition of foods is good, it helps you stay on track and stay in control, and so long as you're not getting bored with it, why not?

My husband and I have been eating a lot of lean grilled meats with veggies cooked in a foil packet on the grill as well, and because this is so healthy, easy to mix it up, and tasty, I can see us doing that a lot in the coming months! If it ain't broke don't fix it

Make sure you are drinking tons of water a major cause of headaches is deyhydration. I am in HORRIBLE shape. Gradual is the key I hope. Though when I see biggest loser and think what is up? Last year I did try it well I started with and hour twice a day and worked up until I was ill. I ended up with a stress factor. So this time I am going it slow.

Lets_Do_It

I used to have to lose 70 lbs, now I just have 50 or so. Good luck everyone!!!

20 lbs dropped in 2 months because I never give up. I watch my calroies and I exercise every chance I get!

Fallingawake

I have 90 to 100 to lose. I am 5 4 and 237 currently started at 245. This has to work.
