I'm having trouble right now getting in enough calories. My net for the day is less than 500, which is not even close to enough. Trying to add in at least somewhat decent foods to replace my exercise calories, but it's hard.
Maybe try looking at your friends diaries for tips on what to eat to get the calories you need...you can peek at mine as well.0 -

That is great that you are already down 7 pounds!!! Keep it up :-)0 -
I'm in. I was 144.8 this morning. I'm aiming for an average of a pound a week, so 133 by Christmas. This will be especially challenging for me as I'm moving cross-country in the middle of this so my exercise & food routines will be cattywhompis while I'm doing it. But hey - that's life, right?
Okay - as of October 1st, I'm 141.4 so I've lost three pounds this week. I'm still going to aim for 12 lbs by Christmas, so I'll make my goal 1290 -
Count me in!
My current weight is 150.
My goal by Christmas is 133.
My 20 year High School reunion is next month, so I have to stay on target!!! :noway: (can't believe I'm that old!!)
Looking forward to giving/recieving encouragement with you ladies!
Feel free to add me as a friend. We all need more of those!

September 30 weigh-in: 149lbs - down one (even with a shoulder injury that kept me from working out!)

Going to get a regular scale this week hopefully and can get a better picture than the wii is giving me. Good luck all and congrats to those that r already losing towards ur goals.0

I'll do it! Is it fair to set a small goal so I am not bummed if I don't reach it but ecstatic if I go over it? I think I will go with a loss of 10lbs.
Weight today: 305lbs
Goal by Christmas: 2950 -

Absolutely - there's nothing like success to spur you on to MORE success. Set realistic goals, and as you approach them, set your NEXT goal. I'm looking at 12 lbs by Christmas, so we're looking at about the same loss rate. But I already lost 3 lbs between the time I said I'd do this, and the official start date, so I kept to my '12 lbs by Xmas', but adjusted the end goal to 12 lbs from where I was Oct 1st.
So let's say, for example, that you're planning to lose 1 lb a week by Xmas, and by the end of October, you've lost 5 lbs. Instead of saying "I can slack now - I'm halfway there", keep your goal of an average of 1lb a week, and update it to say "The 5lbs I've lost *and* 7 more for the 7 weeks ahead". That way you're not asking any more from yourself than you originally committed to, but you've stretched your goal.0 -
I will join!
