keep your spirits up! It is easy to get discouraged when we have little set backs like going over calorie goal or not meeting a weekly weight loss goal but we have to remember that we are her not only to loose weight but to be healthier. Just remember that you did do your 3 workouts this week and even though the scales may not reflect that right now, your body does thank you!!0

Hi All,
My goal for this week is to meet my exercise goal of 5x/week at 45 mins each. I got 5 days in last week, but they were fairly low intensity shorter days due to a pinched shoulder. It seems to have recovered now so it is time to up the intensity and get the scale moving again. I needed the 3 month break I just had, but I am ready now to push through the rest of this journey We can all do it! :flowerforyou:0 -
my goal is to fit in 3 workouts of 45 minutes. and have one of those be strength training rather than cardio. Also, i would like to be more consistent in my food diary. Also i would love to get a scale so i can weigh myself again!!!!0

That's my final goal (for now, we'll see how I feel when I hit 180lbs). I'm at almost 75lbs lost now since November of last year.
You can do it! Don't get discouraged.0 -
Hey guys! I'd love to join you. I'm barely 5'2 and have 100 pounds to lose to reach my healthy goal....well 98 actually since I'm 2 lbs down now...*patting myself on the back*. It does seem overwhelming but I'm feeling great and already noticing a difference in my attitude and energy levels. So glad to have found this site.0

I'm in.
My goal is 100lbs.
I was doing great for the first 3 days (lost 6lbs), but then a weekend of birthday debauchery wrecked my progress.
i'm back on track though. boxing and jogging tonight.0 -

I think I've been a little lax on the water lately. I've been good with the eating, but it seems like some diet soda, or just not drinking anything, has been creeping on. Tomorrow I plan on getting it a minimum of 8 glasses!0

Its great that so many people are finding help through this. I myself am having really hard time with self control lately. I found out last night that my grandma is getting her breathing tube pulled tomorrow and not replaced if she can not breath on her own...so i went on a little emotional binge of over indulgence. gigantic bowl of ice cream, more than a liter of coke, a doughnut. Definitely my worst day so far. If anyone has any ideas on how i can fight my emotional food urges i would greatly appreciate any advice you can give.0

Amberkins: <<<HUG>>> Prayers for you and your family.
I'm really bad at emotional eating. I really can't advise on that. Just do the best you can and get back on track as soon as you can.0 -
So sorry to hear about your grandma, amberkins! I'm an emotional eater, too, so I understand that part well. It's so easy to say, "I've had a hard day, I deserve it!" My only advice would be to either "binge" on something like fruit rather than ice cream, or have the ice cream but in a healthy portion. Easier said than done, I know! But don't get discouraged, we all fall off the wagon sometimes, it's just important to get right back on.0

I needed 64lbs to reach a healthy weight but my goal weight is 6lbs lighter than that, so a total of 70lbs:blushing: Good news is I'm already 8.4lbs down so that's 61lbs to go:drinker: That's how I visualise it, the longer I go the less weight I have left to lose. My body seems really stubborn when it comes to losing weight!:grumble: I sometimes get about 1.4lbs in a week but most of the time its 0.8-1lb which I suppose I have to be grateful for. It's a pound lighter than I was before, right? :laugh: It's just that I find people of my weight seem to lose much quicker than I do! :mad: I read somewhere recently that you can only physically lose 2lbs of fat in a week, but I don't know how true that is. I'm hoping that by losing it at a slower pace I can minimise the loose skin issue.
It's great seeing everyone group together on this and take control of your lives! I personally find it so liberating to take control of myself!!
