Sounds good!

Sold.
I'm Sara - 5'8, previously a runner and swimmer, and I have let my bad habits from college transfer into my "adult" life, and apparently I cannot eat fast food twice a day and drink a ton of craft beer whenever I please anymore.
SW: 151 lbs
GW: 133 lbs
Complete my 5K beginners' training program; running 3 miles in one setting.
Increase my upper body strength.
Have attended at least ten yoga sessions.
Game on!0 -
I had already thought about setting this goal for myself. Great to see that I can now have support and maybe some accountability by joining this challenge!
I'm Raquel. I did Weight Watchers in 2006 and went from 183(HW) to 141(LW). I maintained that weight for 4 years, and then during my struggle to get pregnant the weight crept up to 160. After getting pregnant, and gaining 30lbs, I lost 20 of that. I have been struggling to lose weight. I was going to start WW again, but decided to try to save money, and see if I could find the motivation and accountability here.
So for my stats:
5'7''
SW: 170
Challenge GW: 155
UGW: 135
Goal is to lose 15lbs by Dec 15th, by eating cleaner, and stay under or at my calorie goal each day. Working out at least 3 times a week.0 -

My weight's been creeping back up and the clothes are fitting a bit tighter. Summer is not a good time for me - I prefer cooler weather.
I need to start going back to the gym and fitness classes and get toned back up again - my arms have become wobbly too and the belly is what belly's do when neglected.0 -
