Hello everyone!
So quick question, are you guys exercising every day and keeping your calories where they should be?
I wonder if I do extra workouts (besides from the Body Revolution) and still eat my regular calorie allowance (without the workout cals) I would lose more weigth? I don't want to overdo it for nothing but at the same time I soooo want to hit this goal - what do you guys think?
I have read that it is 80% what you eat vs. 20% exercise. Meaning that your intake has much more to do with your weight loss then exercise. Don't think I am putting down exercise it is a must to keep you moving and strong. It is just hard to try to eat a doughnut and then exercise it off, and then think like that for every snack or meal.
this is just my opinion and what I have read.0 -
funny. i have been 168lbs for a really loooooooooooooooong time now but have never bothered to update my sticker which was stuck at 171lbs because i was too lazy to go and change it. just seeing it updated from 9 to 12lbs lost has given me a big boost :happy:
i'll just go with that...0 -

I'll join in on this challenge! I just started back to MFP today after taking some time off and getting very discouraged becuase I've gained back some weight. I was looking thru message boards all morning for some motivation and think this is it. Halloween/Fall is my favorite season so this will be fun!
CW = 154
GW = 147 (by Halloween)
Ultimate GW = 1350 -
I haven't been weighing in regularly, but I joined in a bit late and set my goal as 8 pounds by halloween, and I'm already down 6! So I may end up doing 10 after all!0

For most people, Halloween means dressing up and going to a party with your friends. Whether your 20 or 50, you still want to feel good in your Halloween costume. Now for me, I will be going to Disney World and Universal Studios for Halloween this year, and I would love to look good for my trip! This DB will help motivate us to lose weight for Halloween!
My current weight: 150
Halloween Goal: 140
There are 57 days left until Halloween, so I figure 10 pounds is a good realistic goal.
Start off by your current weight and your Halloween Goal.
Our next weigh-in day will be Sept 10th.
YAY im soooo in!! And i will be adding a bunch of you as friends so we can keep each other on track!

Hi! Thank you for the comment. I'm trying to keep my diary within my allowances and try to eat as healthy as I can, I just thought of doing extra workouts might help....on the other side, I don't have much time in the day to do 2 workouts so for now I'm sticking to my BR. I'll see how I finish the program and decide what to do next.
My weight in is this Monday....I set a goal of 2lbs a week...don't know, maybe I did it, maybe not; regardless I'm happy with my overall progress!
Thanks!!0 -
New to MFP and to challenges... Probably can't do 10 by Halloween... but I'm going to set an idealistic goal of 8 and a more realistic goal of 5!

Hopefully checking this board will provide the inspiration to keep with it!!0 -

I'm a bit late joining in but I've had a bad week and I need a little extra motivation. Not sure I have anywhere to go, but I'm thinking of a sexy-snow-white costume! 10lbs is too much for me to lose in a month, so I'll go for 6.
Current weight: 179lbs
Goal for Hallowe'en: 173 lbs.0
