Hi Everyone, count me in! I am a mom of two - a 5 year old girl and 1 1/2 year old son. My current weight is 175, my goal for April is to be below 170, a number I will never see again! My ultimate goal weight is around 130, I don't think I have seen that since before high school. I have been a yo-yo on the scale over the years but my motivation now is my daughter. I am a bit concerned with her weight and I want to get it under control before she is old enough to realize it or be bothered by it. I'm doing this for my family. I want my kids grow up in a healthy atmosphere where regular activity and healthy food is normal. I log everything and I try to get to the gym at least three days a week. It's tough with my husband's schedule as he works mostly evenings and my daughter is in activities almost everyday so I am not able to go to the gym as often as I would like. I do have some fitness equipment at home but I need the motivation to use it. My plan is to work out at home 2-3 days a week in addition to the 3-4 days at the gym.
Any tips for developing and sticking to a work out routine at home?0 -
Hey everybody!

Let's do this!
Starting Weight: 390
CW: 379
GW for April: 350
UGW: 165
I know this sounds like a lot, but I only started 3 days ago and I already lost 11 so I thought this was fairly realistic. Good luck everyone!!!
EDIT: Oh, and my plan is to take my dog on a 15-minute walk everyday (we have a huge backyard but he does need the exercise), drink a gallon of water a day, and stick to my meal plan!

How? I will track religiously which I have not been perfect at so far. I will continue my half marathon training plan. I will drink 8 glasses of water a day and plan meals ahead of time or drink slimfast in a pinch.0 -

Im in. Just joined a gym today so I guess im gonna be exercising now. I did a workout today. Anyway I think it will help me this month.
Lets see
Starting weight 178.6lbs (logged it into mfp wrong during my first week so mfp is off by a pound on my pounds lost thingy)
Current weight 174.3lbs
Goal weight for april 170lbs
Ultimate goal is 130lbs,, or a bit more if I get a lot of muscle on me. Muscle weighs more than fat.0 -

How do you plan to achieve your personal goal?
Cleaning up my diet, I've seen some nice loss by simply cutting down on processed/added sugars and not caring much about natural sugars from fruits/vegetables etc. :drinker:
P90X workouts well sort of...I don't follow the plan at all and do whatever workout I feel like doing that day, which are the no-equipment cardio ones right now. Waiting on the equipment I ordered so I can do the Chest/Back/Shoulders workouts. Still I don't follow the set plan or diet regimen at all!
:happy:

LOL! I just sent my sister a text message last week that said "as of today, I am no longer considered obese on the BMI calculator, I am officially overweight!" I was SO excited.

I'll have to revamp my way to achieve this as its been way too cold to jog here in PA. Hopefully winter is finally at an end. I have stuck to jm30ds and walks with my son where I've been able to get out since it's been cold.
I plan on achieving this by logging everything I eat, giving up eating out for the whole month, jm30ds (actually finishing it this time), and jogging 3x/week.0 -
