Don't know what's going on with the scale but my clothes are all looser and my body looks different. I guess the weight will come.0 -
I JUST RAN ACROSS THIS SITE TODAY, SO I THINK I AM TOO LATE FOR THE SUMMER CHALLENGE, BUT, I WOULD LIKE TO JOIN THIS GROUP.I AM JUST STARTING TODAY AT 235 POUNDS. I KNOW HOW IMPORTANT IT IS TO HAVE SUPPORT ON A WEIGHT LOSS JOURNEY. I WAS THIS WEIGHT 22 YEARS AGO. I MANAGED TO LOSE 50 POUNDS, ON ONE OCCASION AND 82 ON ANOTHER, BUT, OVER THE YEARS I HAVE GAINED IT BACK. I NEED TO LOSE 70 POUNDS. I HAVE NOTICED THE WEIGHT LOSS SUCCESS AND WANTED KNOW IF I COULD JOIN THE GROUP?0

Hello…again! I haven’t posted on this challenge in so long I had to search for my original goals! I let a couple of setbacks get me down. I broke my toe and could barely walk; thus, my workout plans went right out the window. However, I am back and I am starting over! :happy:
Starting weight – 192 lbs. (February 2013)
Current weight – 188 lbs. (June 2013)
Goal weight – 168 lbs. (Oct. 2013)
I know this is a summer challenge but because I took a loooooong hiatus, I have adjusted the date for meeting my goal. My non-scale goals remain the same:
1. Workout on a consistent basis (@ least 4 days/week)
2. Eat at least one piece of fruit per day (I’m a veggie girl)
3. Don’t beat myself up if I have an “off” day
4. Wear a swimsuit without a cover/T-shirt0 -

:flowerforyou: Good Morning Divas!
I admit it.... I fell off the bandwagon for about a month. It's good to be back and feel re-energized by your postings. I gained 2lbs while I was MIA but I'm glad that was all.
SW 210
CW 188
GW is 150
Goals:
1. Exercise 5x a week
2. Eat at least 1 veggie a day for now (ugh LOL)
3. Drink more water
4. Wear gym clothes and feel good about myself. I have XL nike shorts and those tops but the tops are uncomfortable so I wind up wearing super large t-shirts.
I don't know if I'll ever be confident enough to wear a swimsuit without a coverup due to stretch marks but I really just want to feel comfortable in my own skin, flaws and all.
Kar1959, I like your idea of posting every Monday!
Thank you all!0 -

Congratulations to you all. We've come a long way. I'm nowhere near my goal for this challenge. I let the crashing of my laptop and a couple of other things set me back. But I did lose and I'm refocused and I'm going to keep going until I reach my new goals. Thank you ladies for all the support and motivation. I've joined another challenge...the 30 week Christmas Challenge. Here's the link below if anyone is interested. I've set a weight loss goal and a fitness goal. The group is still open.
