    I have to lose 2 pounds a week to get to my goal weight at this point in the game. We are 13.5 weeks away!!! I expect to get there by eating healthy options and working out at least 45 minutes a day!!!

    My struggles are in having an almost 2 year old that I sometimes use as an excuse instead of a solution. He may be fussy and won't let me do a workout video...but he loves dancing and going on walks so I should switch things up and find different "less structured" ways to exercise so that I am still moving.

    I have a huge problem with afternoon cravings too and I almost always give into them. I need to figure out a way to stop doing that! HELP...lol

    Mini Goals for 9/26/12-10/1/12 (Less than a week but I want to start weigh-ins on Monday)

    * Go for a evening walk with the boys at least 2 times this week
    * Run a mile without stopping everyday (Wed-Sun)
    * Finish the rest of my cardio by combining walking/ jogging C25K program
    * Only drink wine every OTHER night....my weakness :(

    I just joined MFP and I totally need this challenge!

    Current weight: 158
    Goal weight: 143

    Eat clean -- one cheat meal a week. Keep sugar, snacks (chips, etc), processed foods to an absolute minimum. Keep bread/pasta to a minimum and use whole, healthier grains when I do eat it. Shoot for 1600 or less net calories/day.

    Do something active 5 days a week. Train for 10-mile run coming up in November.

    I think that'll cover it!

    I'm in!!

    CW: 130
    GW: 118
    12 pounds in 15 weeks

    I'm not really worried so much about the weight as I am the changes physically with my body, so my goal is more for an overall toned look, with my stomach completely gone (abs please!!). This is the weight that my old personal trainer told me would maintain that look so that's what I'm using.

    How I'm going to attain this goal:
    - working out 3 times a week (for now, hoping to up it to 6 in a few weeks)
    -drinking water!!!
    -eating healthy meals (I'm a university student, so for me this is hard to do in residence, but I have eggs every morning for breakfast, a salad or soup every day for lunch, and for dinner I go to the 'home-cooked zone' instead of getting things like pasta or pizza)
    -keeping snacking to a minimum, only snacking on healthy things like fruit and nuts

    I think this is a pretty realistic goal, so I'm PUMPED to get to it!!

    Losing weight isn't easy. Strength training helps build muscles which in turn burn fat. I am better at exercising also. Sorry I meant to post this to the post above.
