Hey lovelies! :drinker: And all you newbs too :bigsmile: Welcome to the 10th installment of our Kickin' *kitten* Challenges! If you are looking for some stellar encouragement and support from a group of awesome ladies that know the ropes and understand the trials and tribulations of weight loss and healthy living, you have come to the right place!
Same deal applies this month: Post your goals and keep those posts coming! But as I've said before, whether you update with us regularly or not, make sure that you always keep your own personal goals on the radar and take time each day to dedicate to your own health and well-being. You deserve it!
For those of you unfamiliar with our challenges...
This group/forum is an on-going conversation between motivated, dedicated and totally kick-*kitten* young people all working towards their own individual goals. Each month we are tasked with setting reasonable and attainable goals for ourselves and then checking-in with the group periodically, either to post questions or advice, update on your own personal progress, or provide support and encouragement for those of us that struggle with the everyday stresses and ups & downs of our journey toward healthier living.
Here's how it works:
1) As our veteran members (and newbs alike) sign onto the challenge once again, a list like the one found at the bottom of this post will start forming. This is our “goals list”. If you want to join the challenge, we ask that you copy and paste the most up-to-date list and tag your own screen name and goals to the bottom – this is so that we can keep things moving along and no one gets left behind! (If you notice that someone's been left off, due to a high volume of posting, please incorporate their goals back into the list whenever possible.)
2) Set attainable and realistic goals! I cannot stress this enough, and we will regularly be posting PSAs (as always) to this effect, but I am going to throw it out there right now just so that we're clear. This group is dedicated to supporting healthy living, first and foremost, and that includes physical, emotional and mental health. So set goals that you know you can reach, with hard work and persistence, and find ways to celebrate small victories whenever you can. This will help you stay motivated and on track! We recommend setting some non-scale goals along with a scale goal if you are trying to lose weight – seeing progress in your fitness, your measurements and your diet is a great way to celebrate small changes in your life that make a HUGE difference. Be flexible, know that things aren't going to go perfectly as planned every day, and allow some wiggle room for a bad day here and there. We all have them!
3) Once your goals are posted, stay active and enjoy the benefits of this awesome community. Oh, and invite your 20-something friends! Let's keep this group moving, ladies!
Before we get started... Here are our goals for the month of June. How did you guys do? :huh: I know I didn't bother keeping up with most of mine. Goodness knows, life gets in the way sometimes! Let us know how you did and set some new goals (or keep the same ones) for July and let's get this thing going!
Keep it up, ladies! One day at a time!

Oh I'm first!! man once again I've been so MIA with you ladies, and I greatly apologize.. The end of June brought on some really hard times in regards to work and my overall attitude, so I didn't have much positivity to bring to the thread.. Def didn't want to poison the well, but I kept up reading the posts..
So as for my June goals.. Not only did I stay in the 140's but I was able to magically get down to about 144! Wow where did that come from all of a sudden? And that was with a week in there of no exericse.. i'm just glad to finally be past the plateau.. As for the other goals, still a work in progress, though I'm managing to have more days where I get up, look at myself, and think, dang girl you look pretty good today
Hope you all had a successful June, and hope you no-scale challengers were able to make it through!! This Sunday is my bday, followed by my first 4 mile race on July4th, so it will be a fun weekend.. here's to a fabulous July!!
So here's my July goals:
Allie7383- Finally finish the 30DS, get into the 130's, start and keep up with the bridge to 10k program!0 -

Okay guys, I think I'm coming back. Been through some crazy major life changes in the last 6 months but I need to re-dedicate myself overall health and fitness and not just getting miles in. Marathon training starts in about 2 weeks. I'll be back with some goals!0

Thank goodness July is here!! So my recap for June-
mkingraham (Megan)- Strength train at least 2 times a week, DON'T Weigh-in until July 1, run at least 2 miles 3 times a week, believe in myself, lose 8 lbs (ambitious I know)
Strength train 2 times a week was a fail, but I did do it at least once a week which is more than I had been doing- I DID NOT weight in until this morning and I am really proud of myself for resisting the scale for so long as I had been weighing in everyday, I am pretty sure that I ran at least 2 miles 3 times a week or I averaged 6 miles a week. But I want to make running more consistent because I like being able to do it. Its not that I really like running but I like the feeling of accomplishment I get when I accomplish a distance. I think I struggled with believing in myself. I was so nervous for my race that I barely slept the night before, but then I total hit my goal and did everything I needed to in order to get there which gave me a major boost of self confidence. And the 8lbs goal, well big fat failure there. When I weighed in 4 weeks ago I was 212.5, when I weighed in today I was 210. So in the 4 weeks I only lost 2.5 lbs, but I went into the end of June saying that I would be really happy if I just maintained. Needless to say I am really happy that July is here so I can start fresh!
I will create a separate post for my july goals!0 -

mkingraham (Megan)- Create a succesful healthy delicious food plan and stick to it, do 30DS with my hubby at least 3 times a week, average at least 6 miles a week of running, own the scale don't let it own me (meaning take my no scale challenge and actually learn and apply the lessons it taught me), get back to my optimistic self!
That's right no official pound goals 0 -
Morning folks! And to the few Canucks out there, HAPPY CANADA DAY! :bigsmile:
Here's my recap for June... It's not pretty!
meagalayne- get settled into a fitness schedule that works with my new job and stay accountable, continue logging only 5 days/week, make 2 spin classes, make fitness social at least once a week (cycling, running, walking, something - not including baseball games on Wed night), drink more water (!!!) and aim to get at least 6 hours of sleep at least 5 nights a week.
1) Did not get settled - at all. Just finally picked up Hal Higdon's 1/2 Marathon training plan last week and decided that I will make it work, regardless. It's happening.
2) Yes logging <5 days a week. It's nice to not log religiously but it definitely doesn't keep me accountable. I feel like it gives me free reign to eat garbage sometimes but I've been known to eat junk and not log it in the past (even whilst logging - such a cheater!) so I guess it makes no difference...
3) Spin was a fail for a few reasons. Seriously. I made it to 9 mins of spin class all month...
4) Social fitness has been a hit and miss. Going out once a week with my mom for runs but we tend not to run together because she is much slower than me. Trying to include Ty but lately our schedules just haven't accommodated for it. Definitely going to have to make this a priority.
W
5) Water has also been a fail... upwards and onwards!
6) Sleep has been the biggest fail of all. Last night I capped off the month with just short of 5 hours. Not good. Moving on...
Although I didn't have a scale goal, I weighed in this morning at 121.0lbs exactly... Very low for my height and hoping not to get any lower throughout July...
A week or so ago I decided to revise my goals and set the following:1) I definitely need to make strength a priority. In the short term, I find strength training REALLY unfulfilling. I don't enjoy it at all, and to be honest, I really just love the high I get from chasing a burn - something I can't experience with strength training. Running is a different story and I know I can get back into that, and I will. But when I felt my absolute best physically was when I was lifting 2-3 times a week and could really tell that I was building lean muscle and getting toned. Definitely need to fit it in, somehow.
2)I also REALLY need to get back to my 1/2 Marathon training... Like, seriously, girls. What am I doing here!?!? haha I'm never going to run this damn thing if I don't start training again. I know I can do it. Just have to put my mind to it, find the time, and put my feet to the pavement. Other parts of my life will absolutely have to be put on the back burner. No more excuses - I want to do this for me.
3) Lastly, I need to stop giving myself permission to self-sabotage when no one else is around. Late-night snacking and taking bites here and there for no reason just makes me feel like a secretive eater and extremely disordered. I know that it's OK to indulge now and again, so I don't need to be "sneaking" small little bites of things every single day. I need to plan out my indulgences and the rest of the time I just need to stick to the plan, eat well, and feel good. Emotional eating needs to be a thing of the past.
These are going to be my July goals, I think. Along with water and sleep! Will re-post the list in a separate entry for everyone's convenience.
And to all you newbs - WELCOME!!! :drinker: You're going to love it here!
Megan, Jill, and Allie - Welcome back ladies! Glad to have you :bigsmile:0 -

OMG!~!~! July. How did this happen???? I hope you are all happy with your progress this month!!!~!!!

1) 155lbs by July 31st
2) 10K walking program faithfully until I'm allowed to run again
3) Fast food only 2x/week
4) Wake up at 8am/get 8 hours of sleep everyday and stop wasting time sleeping in
I didn't hit anywhere NEAR my June goals, so these are my new goals for July. I'm really trying this time. I really need to see a pretty number on my scale (for me, that magic number is somewhere between 130 and 140)! I have been so discouraged by the idea of going back into physical therapy and such that I have lost a bit of my will and almost resigned myself to being "thick" for the rest of my life. Please don't let me do that!0 -
Keeping everything organized!

imarunner890s- 155lbs, 10k walkings program, wake up at 8am and get 8 hrs of sleep0 -
Bump!0
-
guamgrly (Bethany) - no scale!! Focus on the lifestyle, the routine, and meal planning. Work out 3x per week. Drink 8 glasses of water per day. Eat more fruits and veggies
Well I think the only goal that I managed to keep with was the no-scale challenge!! I anxiously stepped on the scale this morning and think I lost about a pound or so since last WI but I realized that I didn't log the results of my last WI because I wasn't so proud of that moment. But I honestly logged the number that I saw on the scale this morning and will be taking measurements tomorrow morning.
July goals - continue with the no-scale challenge. I really need to mentally get my head where it needs to be as far as embracing this healthy lifestyle rather than focusing on moving the number on the scale. That being said, I will keep my July goals exactly the same since I didn't achieve hardly any of them.
I will be back later to properly resond to everyone0 -

lostalykat- Stick to my calories as best as I can with training, Focus on training these last 4 weeks, Don't worry about the number on the scale but check it weekly to keep me accountable.
These feel like good goals. The last one is easier said then done, I checked the scale even though I know I shouldn't have because we went out to eat last night and I had a few drinks so the extra 2 pounds could be sodium. I have decided to check weight weekly again, so I don't let myself splurge too much. Lets hope we can get this month on track!0 -

Wanted to lose 8 pounds to get to onederland but lost 10!....check!

ok so ive got to week 7 of couch to 5k, however i have achieved more than i hoped to as i can run for 25-30mins now! woohoo! and i started the 30ds on 12th and decided to go through with it for 30 days. scale challanged worked and ive maintained!
The scale challange helped me to refocus on food and start to eat properly. i will never be squeaky clean but im more aware of what i eat.0
