Why not start off with a lil challenge:tongue: ? Today we should challenge ourselves to do something new; whether its jogging/running if you're normally a walker or a new workout vedio. Lets push ourselves beyond our comfort level and see where it takes us :wink:

    I am 47 and my Birthday is in July I am so sick of being overweight. Last summer I broke my foot and therefore did not do much consequently I gained weight

    I am back in the gym trying to get back into the cardio - eating better - cut the junk - not drinking as much I would be happy to lose 40-50 pounds by my birthday (July)

    I am rewarding myself with a new tattoo :) And a bikini

    I live on an island so I am surrounded by ocean so beachwear is a must. And this year I am determined to get a new bikini and be comfortable in it.
    I have 40lbs to my goal but I am also in a group challenge to lose 20lbs by Memorial Day. Which my birthday falls 3 days before Memorial Day, so -20lbs by my birthday would make me soooo happy!!

    BRING
    IT
    ON!!!

    I have gained weight since the winter started (As it is difficult to get a lot of fun exercise in winter) I hate GYMs. Any snow bunnies out there with some good ideas??

    Oh this is me! So wanting to be comfortable in my summer clothes this year. I have about 30 lbs to lose. Trying to incorporate lifting and cardio and good nutrition in my daily habits!

    Oh for the challenge I have about an hour before I have to meet the family for dinner so I'm going to dress out in the workout clothes and go down to our work gym room and do one of the exercise videos down there.

    I just recently moved from the east coast to the west coast...and live 3 miles from the beach!! I have never felt confident about my body...and I'm working to change that! I'd really like to be able to enjoy the summer on the beach this year!! Let's keep each other going! I'm just over 15 lbs from my goal.

    I am completely ready for this! I hate wearing a bathing suit out in public.... Hopefully this summer will be different!

    I'm a female, an engineer, and overweight. According to potential employers, those three things are not supposed to go together. I'm in my very last semester of college and I cannot count how many times I've been judged by my size as soon as I step foot into an interview room.

    On another note, I will be seeing high school friends for the first time in a long time when I go back home after graduation. I want to completely WOW them!!! Not to mention my parents. :smile:

    I have 80 pounds to loose. By eating crappy I-only-have-a-microwave-and-no-fridge-because-I'm-in-a-dorm food and exercising 3-5 times a week during the summer, I lost 11 pounds in 2 months! Now that I have an actual kitchen and a locker full of clothes at the rec center, I bet I can make that almost 40 pounds in 4 months! How awesome would that be?!

    We got this guys!!! :drinker: <--- That's totally water :tongue:

    Whose still here?? Its a Monday and a new week. What's everyone's goal this week?

    I have had a lot of stress in my private life so my goal this week is to stay on plan with my working out and my food choices because it is something I can control. The other part of my life - I cannot.

    Going to log some hours at the gym and running. Going to eat healthy -- cutting as much of my processed foods as I can. Feel free to check my diary and call me out on it if I don't!

    I so want to be able to wear my cute summer clothes this Spring.

    I'm here! My goal is to get in a workout everyday until Saturday...Saturday I am flying back to Japan so for 2 days I won't be able to work out or even eat to healthy so i wanna make the first part of my week as awesome as possible to try to balance out the end of the week.
    I don't plan to go hog wild while traveling but it will be a stressful struggle!

    jchrisman I feel you 100% on stress in the private life!! I hope you dieting and exercising can be your muse.

    So I just found out that we are having a big family reunion on May 10th. I think that is a good short term goal for me to set. I have been doing pretty good as far as my logging and eating. Still struggling to keep those processed foods down. I have been really trying to keep my workouts steady and just make myself get to the gym.

    Hope you all are doing good on our little journey!
