    MY MISSION (& I choose@ to accept it): Lose 10.8 lbs.
    My Plan of (Fat ) Attack:
    1. Break out the measuring cups again! (Portion size! When will I learn! )
    2. Exercise : 30Day Shred at least 5 days a week! (My injury modified version )
    3. Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! (Will fill my Kleen Kanteen at least 4 times a day)
    4. Will eat breakfast! I've been slacking in this area.
    5. I will give rest & PT to my injured calf muscle!

    Above all I will remember this is a race not a sprint, a"Live it not a Diet! "

    Hi guys, I love this challenge already! I'm in a pretty stressful patch in my life and had dropped back into my old habits of eating/binging when stressed, but just reading the words "make a game plan" flicked a switch in my mind and made me determined to find another way to cope, instead of just eating.
    Over the 12 weeks I want to look at three main areas:

    1. Week 1 - 4 focus: Bingeing - work on some strategies to distract myself, plus try to work out just when and why I do it and how to change!
    2. Week 5 - 8 focus: Exercise - I'm training for a 12k race in August so am running to train for this, but want to step back and have a look at what I do during the week and work out how to fit in some other kinds of exercise/strength training too.
    3. Week 9 - 12 focus: Nutrition - I've been mostly looking at calories in/calories out for the last 5 months and it's been pretty successful, but I think it's time to have a look at the macronutrient breakdowns and work out what is best for me and how to do it.

    As well as these 3 areas to accomplish, I also plan to:
    4. Buy size 12 jeans by week 6
    5. Run 12k in the City to Surf - I'll be on the beach for the start of week 12!

    The game plan concept is great, because it reassures me that I don't have to do everything at once. I'm feeling a bit guilty for not working on an exercise plan and how to be eating better and how to stop binging etc... but now I've decided to focus on one thing at a time, I feel quite relieved and confident that I can do it, one step at a time.

    I'm looking forward to the stage when I can skate without waving my arms around like a chicken. I also somehow manage to fall over when I'm just standing still... and holding onto the rail. It's a heap of fun though and I definitely feel it the next day!

    I've been having a great NSV happen lately... At least 4 co-workers in the past week have asked me if I've lost weight!!!! :D

    I'm going grocery shopping a little later today, and I want to focus on increasing my veggies, and generally spending my calories on bulky, healthy FOOD instead of empty calories.

    Great job for weighing-in everyone!!

    Just so you know, I have your starting weights set as what you have down for:

    6/9: ***start of challenge***


    I've noticed that some people's weight don't match. The same is true for goal weight. Just make sure that if you have mulitple start/goal weight listed that they match up otherwise you'll be telling me later that I don't have the right numbers set for you. If left to my own devices I tend to err on the side of caution and make your goal to lose smaller rather than larger. Just double check your numbers when you are posting. The last thing I want to do is chart your numbers incorrectly. :wink:
