    I would like consistency with working out during the week. No excuses. No thinking I 'deserve' a treat...either I worked hard for it or not...bottom line for my next 50 days.

    My Goals:

    1. I would love to get back into my morning routine of getting up and getting at least a half an hour done on the Bike and then doing my Yoga in the morning or afternoon too. Or even late at night before bed. The holidays have kind of messed me up too and I got off track.

    2. During the next 50 days (about 7 weeks) I would like to use at least 10 pounds but seeing as how to me that seems high, lets at least get 5lbs down!

    3. I would like to start being able to control my portions again. I was doing so well but got off track.. Lets see if I can get this done too!

    I keep outeating my workouts :-(.
    1. I plan on going "dry" for the month of January.
    2. Find a WOE (way of eating) that works for me.
    3. Lose 10 lbs (after I lose the 3 holiday lbs).
    4. Add a stretch class to my routine.
    5. Earn my CCNA-DC certification while losing weight. This is my biggest challenge; studying and NOT munching!!!

    My goals are to workout consistently and not say that I am too busy to get a workout in. Also, I would like to cut down on eating out. I hope to lose at least 5 pounds in 50 days!

    Yay! So excited for the next 50 days.

    I want to get back to consistently working out. The month of December has been rough as I've been perpetually sick. My body is begging me to get back to a routine.

    I am aiming for 10 lbs.

    I want to be better about balancing fueling my body and not over or under eating.

    I neeeeeeeeeed to get back to running.

    I want to tone up.

  • I wasn't part of your first 50 days, but may I join you for the second 50? My goals would be 1) to be more consistent with exercise (thinking about changing my schedule to accomodate a morning workout), 2) to plan better for the day so I don't snack on the wrong foods at work, and 3) to lose 10-15 lbs! Please let me join! :)

    I want to get back into a regular exercise routine and start getting to the grocery store a little more often. I use that excuse sometimes for eating out -- "Can't eat healthy until I can make it to the store" Yeah right! Anyway - my goal is to get rid of the excuses and do what I have to do to see some results.

    I want to try to up my lifting to 3 times a week instead of 2

    My goal is to lose at least 10 pounds. I also want to log EVERY DAY even on the weekends. I need to get back into planning my meals weekly and I want to work out AT LEAST 3 days a week.

    My goals are to start Turbo Fire and lose the last 20 pounds of my pregnancy weight in the next 50 days!
  • My name is Sarah. I'm 31 and weigh in at 187. I've lost 50 pounds so far and have been stuck in a sludge for a few months. During 2013 I want to hit my original goal weight (about 28 pounds to go). Although I will be resetting a goal after I hit that one, these mini challenges will help us get to the next step!

    My mini goal for this 50 day challenge is to increase my ater intake, log my food and close it out every day and not just log in, commit and follow through with exercise at least 4 days a week, and lose 1 pound a week.

    LET'S GO TEAM!!

    I am so happy I have found this challenge.

    I went to my local health centre today to get properly weighed
    and was shocked to know I was much heavier than I thought.

    * My goal is to lose 10 lbs in the next 50 days
    * Get on my treadmill at least once a day for 30 minutes
    * Stick to my diet plan and plan at least one week in advance to make sure I have the right food in.
    * Keep a honest daily diary on my blog as to how I am doing.

    I will keep reading the other postings in the group for inspiration.

    I'm hoping to use the 50 Day Challenge to really kick start my lifestyle changes. No idea what I realistically want to lose in 50 days but going to aim to run 20 mins each day, although starting at the walk/jog intervals!

    My goals for the next 50 days are:
    1) Consistency - the holidays really threw my schedule into shambles - Want to get back to going to the gym 3 days/week; Home cardio workouts 3 times/week & EVERYDAY doing a streching & ab workout.
    2) Healthy meal planning (including snacks)
    3) Organize & prioritize things in my life: office, school, workouts, family time
    4) Ultimately lose 15lbs in the 50 days!
  • Since 50 days is nearly equivalent to 7 weeks, based on my personal goal of losing 2lbs a week, I will be shooting for dropping 15lbs in the next 50.
    That's it for now!
