MEAT Me at the Beach (6/16-19 weigh-in)

newmeat30

Welcome to the first week of the MEAT Me at the Beach Challenge!! Please take a look at the chart below. Get familiar with the format and check your stats. Please let me know of any changes that need to be made.



Remember that our first weigh-in window will be June 16th-June 19th. All weight must be posted by NOON on the 19th. I’ll be posting charts on a new thread that evening to show our results for the June 16th-19th weigh-in. As a friendly reminder, please keep up with the thread that is posted each week. I do not check old threads for weigh-in information. If you do not weigh-in in time, your information will get left off of the chart that is posted (however, I will update it on my computer). Keep in mind that we will also have weekly challenges/reflections. Stay tuned to see what is planned for this week.

>>>>> If you are interested in joining this group, or for more information, please see our original thread that this link: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/259078-vic-s-losers-meat-me-at-the-beach-challenge-now-recruitin?page=7#posts-3469391 <<<<<<

Pay no attention to any of the colored columns except the yellow one. The rest will have accurate numbers in them after our first weigh-in.

Week 1 Challenge: Make a Game Plan
Often it is easy to get lost in the idea of having 12 LONG weeks to make your goal. You might feel a little lost or overwhelmed. You may even get off track or fall off the wagon altogether. One way to avoid this is to MAKE A GAME PLAN! Think about how you are going to succeed. Desire to lose weight is great, but without a plan to do it you may struggle or fail. Take a look at your goals and see what you need to do to meet them. Our challenge is set up to have 2 mini-goals and one final goal. Outline what you want to do in 12 weeks, but really set out a plan for your first FOUR weeks of the challenge. Think about diet, exercise, and a schedule. What do you want to achieve and how are you going to do it?


Week 1 Refection: Accomplishments & Timeline
Weight-loss cannot always be seen with a number on the scale? Often times it is found in the fit of our clothes, the ability to do a task/activity, or in the eyes of others. What are five things that you want to accomplish during this 12 week challenge? When during the challenge do you expect these accomplishments to occur?

Ok I finally have my laptop back in working order My start weight is 156 and my over all goal weight is 138.
18 pounds in 12 weeks seems impossible especially since until I found this group and did the last 12 week challenge I had been steadily gaining to the tune of 30 pounds in 2 years.

My little goals are to get 30 min of exercise 6 days a week (even if I have to break it up into two 15 min segments) and drink 80 ounce of water a day.

My first mini goal is to lose 4 pounds in the next two weeks. We are having a little get together with family and friends on the 26th and I would like to lose 4 pounds by then

I would like to lose 5 by the 4th of July!

Also, we have a short weekend get away planned for the last weekend in July and my goal is to be down 8 pounds by then My cute swimsuit bottoms are cutting in to me and hopefully losing 8 pounds will be enough to keep them from cutting the circulation off to my legs.

Hope all you guys the best of luck in achieving your goals and thank you so much NewMeat! As always your chart is amazing and you are an inspiration!!!!

5 Goals I would personally like to achieve during this 12 week challenge (In no particular order)

1) Get control of my apetite - portion control - I hope to fully achieve this by week 3!
2) Eat less meat! for 12 weeks
3) Try a new recipe (healthy of course) Each week
4) Fit into some clothes I wore last summer (by week 12)
5) Play a full game of beach volleyball with my husband ! (which I've never managed! )
