    Okay well I dunno what my goal is since Im confused with all this **** haha but want to lose ATLEAST 20 pounds :bigsmile:

    i'm sorry youre confused! is there any way i can help? you can track or not track anything you want. Is your goal to lose 20lbs in 7 weeks? it might be a little hard to do that since it equates to almost 3lbs a week but if you think you can do it, and in a healthy manner, then we'll support you! you dont have to track measurements or anything like that if you dont want to. you also dont have to post any numbers or weights if you're uncomfortable doing so. i just wanted to get to my first goal weight of 136 and saw Valentines Day as 7 weeks away and a good amount of time to get to my goal in. feel free to mesage me if you're not comfy talking about it on here!

    I'm in! I'm currently 10'7 (thanks to my birthday and Christmas!) and would like to get down to 10st by Valentines day. I only want to lose around 15lbs in total so I'm not going to be too ambitious!

    realistic goals are nice because they're attainable...i think that's a great idea. welcome and good luck!

    Ooh! Me me me!

    5'4", 179 lbs, 24 years old.
    From memory (and the last time I measured), I'm:

    Bust: 42"
    Waist: (Widest part, not natural waist) 39"
    Hips: 43" (I like big butts, and I cannot lie.)

    Goal for Valentine's: ~1 lb/week. Aim low, then be surprised when I surpass it! So 170 lbs by Valentine's. Let's do this. :)

    welcome! i think your idea about aiming low and being surprised is great! good luck!

    Current Weight - 156lbs
    Valentines Goal Weight - 150lbs

    Small goal, I know, but its only 10lbs from my total goal! :)

    i think thats a great goal. weight comes off much slower when we get closer to our goals. good luck!

    I would love to join!
    My current weight is 154 (up a bit from the holiday eating :()
    I'll have to take my measurements tomorrow morning.
    My goal is to be 149 by Valentine's Day. Only 5 lbs, I know, but I'm also doing Body Revolution, and I've read a lot more inches are lost than lbs.

    i'd much rather lose inches than lbs anyways! good luck! i'd love to know how that program works for ya!

    SOOOOO


    We have so many lovely people in our challange so far! I wonder how much our total weight loss will be by the end of it?!?

    Someone mentioned checking in weekly and I know that I definitely will be doing that....feel free to post as often as you want in here. i will try to check in daily and make sure to say a personal hello to all of you who are posting.

    What are your plans to help you reach your goals? i'm interested to hear what some of you are doing...I'll start I guess...

    I'm just monitoring my calorie intake and exercising. i've always been active and tried to be healthy but my body hate me and has a lot of issues that make it difficult sometimes. i got to my lowest (adult) weight of 138 back in November of last year and then ended up with a bad medical condition that makes it so that i cannot eat a lot. i would be starving on some days and binging on others when i could actually eat and ended up putting on 22lbs. I got up to 160, that is not very pretty on a 5'2" frame. i'm trying to control my condition and lower my weight back into a healthier range for my height. if you add me, you will see that i do not generally eat over 1000 calories. this is part of my medical condition and issues that it causes so please be mindful of that when posting. we all have our own struggles and places we come from and i want this thread to be welcoming and supportive.

    now it's your turn...what's your plan to get to your goals?
  • hell yeah!!! im in!! im 25 CW 206 BY V DAY WANNA BE 190!! :D

    Hi, I'm in ... 44 years old, 5'8" tall.

    CW: 256
    VGW: 246 (just a 10 lb loss, hopefully)
    UGW: I don't know ... around 150-ish I think. I'm only worrying about this in 5-10 lb increments. :-D
