    Hi everybody -- I hope you don't mind me joining this group but June 1st is a big day for me too. I am 55 year old and want to lose over 50 pounds but more importantly I want to do a sprint triathlon on June 3rd. I have started adult swimming lessons and am using this site to track calories and exercise and lose weight so my goal will be achievable AND I will look and feel better. I have been doing Weight Watchers for years -- or should I say going to some meetings not really following the plan. This program is awesome and I love the bar scanner. I have only been doing it a week but I am down over 3 pounds already. It is enlightening (and sad) to really face the calorie counts of what I have been eating. It is becoming very clear why I have not lost weight. So today I think I will join the "drink more water" challenge and get outside to do a walk / jog !

    I would be happy to have some more friends to hold me accountable. I really think I CAN do this and am focused on how I will feel on June 3rd being at least 40 pounds lighter and maybe finish my first sprint triathlon !

    This week my goal is to keep up the higher activity level I've been working on (especially so I can consumer a few extra calories which always keeps my mood up!). I looove how much stronger I feel just from doing aerobic fitness dvd's at home. I probably look like a goof doing them, but my goal is to keep at it!

    My Valentine's goal is to keep losing 2lbs a week until then. Haven't decided what would make a good reward for completing this though... Have to keep thinking about that one!

    My goal this week is to get back to the 30DS. I lost a week to the flu (first time getting the flu and boy I didn't know how much it sucked) and drink more water and less girl scout cookies!

    OK, help! I had a headache yesterday so I didn't do my workout and I feel horrible. I still ate alright but defiinetely over my calories because I didn't workout. And I woke up with a headache again today. I really hope I'm not getting sick, I hope I'll feel ok this afternoon to do some! All I can do is continue to eat well!

    @ wanderlaura Good for you.... The water is something important especially with your exercise goal. Maybe think about adding lemon to a glass...
    I was having trouble so I did that and drink 2 glasses before and after a meal. Makes a difference and that counts for 4 glasses for 1 meal. ♥.•*¨*•.♥

    @ccsunlight, I have upped my game to leslie sansone walk at home video tapes when I can not go outside, like today. I am going slow so maybe 1 or 2 miles today and I got me a pedometer to log my steps. I will work my way up to 5 miles daily....You had such a wonderful idea... Thanks again woo hoo ♥.•*¨*•.♥

    Yesterday was hard! But I'm back- realizing I really love being able to have a snack when I get home in the evening. Will start saving some calories so that works!
