My goal is to lose two pounds per week. Weigh in day is Tuesday (tomorrow).

By doing it one week at a time, I'm hoping to stay motivated and on track. By making it two pounds, I'm hoping it is achievable and healthy.

Risk for all major health concerns in North America (heart disease, diabetes, stroke, dementia, kidney disease) can be significantly reduced by healthy eating and an active lifestyle. I want to prevent these illnesses, my knees are already sending me messages, it's time to do something.

Join me and let's do this!

    2lbs sounds great!
    I am going to weigh-in the morning (Tuesday) to note the starting weight. Let us do it!

    I am following Lyn Genet's The Plan for food intake and planning of working out 5X/week to achieve the 2lbs goal this week.
    Cheers to 2lb Tuesdays!

    I'm totally in! This is my goal too plus my weigh in day is Tuesday! I'm glad I found this new group :smile: I excercise 6 times a week and I changed my eating habits to eat better, not just eat less crap food. My days are filled with veggies and proteins, yogourts, a bit of fruits. Not many carbs for now. I've been on this journey for the past 3 months plus one week. I haven't lost two pounds every week but this is a great way to challenge myself. Let's do this!

    Hi, I am in the UK and will be up for the TPT challenge with you all. Is the basic premise to post your weight every Tuesday and support each other through the week?

    Thanks
    K :)
