JUNE STARTERS

kandyjo

Ok, this group came about from one of my posts.... It seemed that a lot of us are in the same spot (I'm in the middle of my second week) so we thought how fabulous to start a group for all of us on the "same page" so to speak.
So, for now, I am identifying us as JUNE STARTERS becuase we haven't came up with a name yet :happy:

Ok, in this post....
People in this group need to have started their new journey to weight loss and/or a fitter person in June....recommittments count...that is where I am right now.... I'm a recommitter and I started two weeks ago... So, if you fit this description, welcome! :happy:
We want to start by you posting your starting weight, current weight (ew, I know) weight goal and any mini goals that you may have. If you want to share a little about yourself that is fine too.
We want to really good a good idea of who our group members are, so be sure to reply to this post!!!
Ok....

Hi Everyone,

I would like to be in the 130s by end of july and run 10k with out stopping by the end of june.
Also, I am wearing size 10 jeans right now. I have 1 pair and they are ratty and torn at the knees. I would like to fit easily into an 8 with in a month. Realistic??? We will see.

I have a soon to be 3 year old son, stay at home mom, and vegan.

Greetings to all other June Starters!

Welcome! I notice you quit smoking too. May I ask how you did it?

Me? I quit using the nicotine patch. I'm actually using the generic brand because I had bad skin reactions to the NicoDerm CQ brand (and it made my arm feel REALLY weird). Only two weeks left and I'm off the patch. woo hoo! :bigsmile:
