Sooo.. a roomate and I were pilfering through LaSenza today, and as always, the underwear was ADORABLE, and it looked AMAZING on all of the models in the posters, and as badly as I wanted it, I knew I just feel bad about spending the money, because I don't need more regular underwear, and I kind of think of lingerie as more of a treat.

So here's my goal, and my promise to myself. I will be under 130lbs by Valentines day. (about 16-17 to lose)
I will also start taking better care of my skin, (drinking more water, cutting out excess sugar and grease)

If I can do this, I'm going to get a spray tan (I've always wanted one, just a light one, they supposedly do a stellar job of covering stretch marks) and treat myself to a 100$ shopping spree at LaSenza.

(who knows, maybe my boyfriend will even chip in a few bucks when I tell him what it's for =p)


Anybody else in? Let's reward ourselves, we deserve it =)

    I'm in! :bigsmile:

    I want to be about 140 by Valentine's Day. I was down to 140 already a few months ago, but long story short, I put it back on. :grumble:

    I hope to be to my goal weight right around St. Patrick's Day :smile:

    I'm up for the challenge. I would like to be down to 140 by V-Day. I haven't had the confidence to wear anything sexy since mid-June before my job got stressful and I let the excercise and diet go. I need to lose about 27 pounds to make it, but I think I can do it.
    So far this week I am down 7 pounds and I didnt go over my calories on Turkey day so I'm feeling strong.

    That's awesome everyone! I don't have a scale, but last time I was home I weighed about 147, and my clothes have gotten a little looser since. I'm hoping to get a little spare cash for Christmas, and then MAYBE I'll buy a scale, but not having one around has really helped me keep on track, because I can't get upset about a little sodium bloat or "that time of month" or whatever lol.

    What's everyone planning on doing? Like exercise+deficit wise?

    My starting weight is 152.6 (as of my last weigh in).
    My goal by Valentine's day is 140.

    I'm about 5'7" tall. I eat 1450 calories a day, and more if I earn exercise calories. I run 3 days a week and burn anywhere from 275 to 500 calories, but I'm increasing my distance (and calories burned) every day! I also need to start doing more strength training- abs, arms, and back work.

    Will we have challenges, or just check in? Just curious, that's all :wink:

    OK today is my weigh in day and I have not changed,but I can feel my body changing. Does anyone have any ideas for this weeks challange. How about 30 minutes 5 times this week for a workout challange. Any workout you want to do for a minumum of 30 minutes at least 5 times this week.

    Great idea! February 18th is my 90-day mark, so I planned on weighing in then anyways. Why not do it a few days sooner???

    Current Weight: 159.4
    Goal Weight by V-Day: 150 Pounds (though if I keep up at my current rate, hopefully I can make it as low as 140. We'll see....)
