    I am in, and today is my first WI. I have been wanting to lose 5 lbs for months, but the wanting has not translated into doing. I think this will do the trick! I am looking for a group that motivates and supports each other, and looks like maybe this is it.

    My fitness resolution for 2013? To get off of the diabetes meds, AND the anxiety meds. Which means I need to control my blood sugar by eating right and exercising, and of course losing weight. For the anxiety meds, I need to work on my emotional health, so working out and eating well will help there also.

    For those on the board, I vow to sign in daily and support you, because I need your support, too!

    Hi, to everyone, but especially those of you who just joined yesterday and today, like me: katchmesue, angelzoya519, jaynita2, hafnerbg, psmith64, 6patch, emmab32, ruth_thomps! We can do this. Let's stick together. 5 lbs is quite doable, I think, maybe. I think I am ready to go, not just think about it. Let's see. What motivated me the most this morning was dmcole3's post... nearly 19lbs in the last 3 months, nice and steady. That's what I want!

    Today I am taking a spinning class orientation with my DH. I hope I like it! I am looking for workouts I enjoy so much I can't wait to do them! And starting southbeach today again, but starting on Phase 2, not Phase 1. Have done Phase 1 many times, and it is not good for me... my glucose levels go too low and I get very sick. My brother, who is a southbeach enthusiast recently suggested I skip Phase 1 and do Phase 2 instead, so I am giving it a try. Well, enough for now. Talk to you all soon!
  • Excited for tomorrow's weigh in and to see if I lost anything in the first week. I'm so dedicate and really hope to lose the goal of 5 pounds this month.

    Ideally I would like to lose these last 9 lbs and maintain 170 lbs. throughout the year.

    Weigh in:
    1/1 179 lbs.

    What is my fitness resolution for 2013?
    Not only do I want to break this plateau, but I would like to hire a personal trainer to help me tone things up a bit.
    I losed 60 lbs last year and now I have to deal with the flabby skin around my arms and waist.

    Just for fun: What is your fitness resolution for 2013? I am going to get my butt moving again. I did it before and lost 30 and to do it, it required alot of exercise (because I love food). My goal is to do an official workout 5 days a week for at least 30 minutes. Then the extra stuff is just that, extra.

    For Avargas15 - I hope you enjoy the spinning class orientation. Finding an exercise we enjoy is key to this. You can do it and it is great that your DH is doing it with you!!!! Mine is skinny and annoying.

    Don't worry about joining late. Everybody has to start sometime. I did great this week but I am sure alot of it was water weight from holiday eating. I can get to my goal and more. I weigh on Mondays so I too will be posting a day early.
