in Introduce Yourself
Hey all! I've been here for 50 days now and I have lost a grand total of....wait for it....4lbs! Frankly, over the past 50 days I've been getting myself back into a routine of working out. I've joined a gym, thought about what I'm eating and have tried to get my focus where it needs to be. What I've been lacking is CONSISTENCY!! I've been WAY to big picture focused and easily discouraged. SO - today I decided that I want to lose (at least) 18lbs by my next 50 days. That sounds like a great way to celebrate 100 days on MFP. Would you like to join me?? What is your goal?? Let's partner up and get ready for Christmas!! :-)

    I would love to join you! My goal is 20 lbs, and although I have been on this for a while, I am not dedicated enough to make it work! Maybe this will help!

    Consistency can be really hard if you focus on goals that are really tough to accomplish, although no goal is immpossible to reach. That new goal sounds like a great one for right now. I know you could do that. Feel free to add me as a friend. I am looking to lose about 8-10 lbs of body fat right now.

    Just a thought here... what do you think about breaking up your goal into small goals to help you reach your big goal?
    Maybe every 10 days a different challange or goal...

    8+ glasses of water
    9 servings of fruits and veggies
    up your workouts
    Support your friends/share recipes
    Buy a target outfit

    Those are just some ideas- what do you think?

    Add me, please! I just started and I have 30 lbs to lose. Since I've just started, it's so hard to not give in to those temptations. But since the past few days, I've been strong.
    I hope I continue this way.

    Good luck to us all!
