I'm working on losing 30 more pounds. Already dropped 10. I work out 5-6 days a weeks for 95 minutes minimum. I'm 54 and really motivated this time. I'm journaling my food and exercise which is the key for me. I've always worked out but not getting anywhere in the weightloss dept.0

Hi All! My husband and I want to start hiking the AT. We've given ourselves a year or two to plan, prepare, and train. I'd like to lose 50 lbs. before then. That's the long term goal. In the short term, I'm working towards being able to run a 10K. That can only help with the hiking, right?

Hello All,
I have been told I am borderline diabetic, borderline high blood pressure and I have high cholesterol. I would like to use 50-60. But I'll take whatever I can lose.lol I am a work at home mom which means I have access to all the foods. which is my downfall. I love food. I have to admit it. But I am trying to control my portion and my intake. so far so good, got my fingers crossed. I am really trying to lose weight so I would be around to see my kids grow up.0 -
Hi all,
I am a work at home mom as well, and along with getting myself healthier, I want to teach my children about the importance of living a nutritionally healthy life and making exercise fun. We are trying to cut back on the processed foods (which is hard because my kids are young and picky - and they love the processed foods). Can't wait until it starts warming up a bit here and we can run around more outside. We are finding things to do inside to stay more active, but have big plans for the warmer months!
I am ulitmately looking to lose around 60 lbs. I am terribly impatient with the weight loss, I need help/motivation/encouragement that the weight has been on most of my life, it is not just going to melt away with one good week. I am in this for the long haul, but do need to constantly remind myself to take it day by day.0 -
Hey!
I am trying to lose a total of 25 lbs! I have gotten up to my full-term pregnany weight recently and that made me feel disgusting! I am short 5'4 and I spread out! love to eat and I am addicted to sugar and carbs!!! Like us all! UGH!! I like to exercise too and time is not always on my side with teens (ages 16 and 13 1/2) and schedules! My son and I joined a gym the end of Jan. so that helps a lot as well! So this year I really need to focus on tracking my food and of course continuing to exercise and burn fat!! It's so easy to snack, snack, snack but hard to lose, lose, lose!!! Just looking for more encouragement!!
