90 Day Weight Loss Challenge

Thanks I'm looking forward to being involved so I can stay focused and on track. I think I have the most weight to lose. I'm currently 260 ( my profile picture was taken this weekend) I would love to be 185 I look thin at that weight. so I know this will take a while but I have the faith that I can do this. I had a great shape and I want it back.

Krazie4u247: If you haven’t ate chips or junk like that in a while, your body will definitely act negative to it. Two days ago there was a hotdog/burger sale and everyone kept telling me I could eat one, but I told them I haven’t had that in so long, I’d probably get sick. And I hate to say, but their cause was not worth me feeling miserable, so I only donated.

Shaqueta and Crcc822001: Both of you have the right motivation. Determination. Determination to get back what you once had. No one can ever prevent you from achieving your goals but yourself. I believe that both of you can get to the goal that you’ve set for yourselves.

My boxing coach switched my training date to tomorrow, so I am sitting on my couch wondering if I should go to the gym or not. Normally Friday’s are my day off and I’m really tempted to let it remain that way, because tomorrow I will go to step and then boxing in the afternoon. I will do some abs and push-ups tonight.
Everyone, enjoy your Friday.

I just joined MFP and I think its amazing how all of you are helping each other stay motivated!! I know i definitely need someone to keep me motivated, cuz honestly I'm a slacker... anyway i think the 90 day challenge is a great way to start off, so if its not too late i would also like to join this challenge.

I weigh 143.... no change

I lost a little on the scale, but I know I am gaining muscle!

On Monday
August 16th I weighed 156.
August 20th I am at 155.8!

WOW! :bigsmile: Congrats everyone on their scale successes this week! I will be weighing tomorrow since I'm on a personal challenge to myself to only weigh in every 10 days this month. So I'll report in then. Hopefully there will be a loss...I'm doing lots of carbs today because I am in a road race tomorrow. Should be an "easy" :laugh: one because this one is only 2 miles & on flat ground. The last one I did was 7 miles & nothing but hills! :noway:

Weigh in at 211....Am soooooo glad I measured as I actually gained half a pound, but lost an inch off of my hips. Yay! Still, would love to be 20 lbs lighter in 90 days. That would get me past the nasty O word (Obese), and under 200.

Another side benefit? My very overweight dog is looking great! lol

Hai.

I'd like to join yall in this challenge. I know I'm a bit late, but I'll catch up. Goal is to drop 19 pounds. Current weight at 194.

Also, has anyone else experienced the calorie calculator to be waaay off for them? The calc suggest I eat 1600 cals/day to lose 2lbs/wk. Last month (July) I dropped 10 pounds (to get where I'm at now) eating what I would estimate to be 3500 calories per day. 2,700 scheduled daily with some snacks here and there and a pizza on Sunday that I estimate at 3500 cals. Yep. It's worth every one of those calories

This month I've been fortunate enough to have a couple different parts of my family in town that I haven't seen in years, so exercise was one of the priorities that got pushed back. My weight has held steady the last few weeks without exercise, so possibly I'm just underestimating my exercise calories?

Anyway, count me in. This weekend is Teh Big Suck and I won't be able to get any exercise in so you get another couple days head start. But after that.... I'm coming like a freight train. Hop on and let's go to goal! Alternately, you can stand in front and I'll push ya.

Bai.

Starting today, using yesterday (Friday's weight) 186. Trying to lose 1 pound a week, so 90 days would be 13 pounds. That would make me happy.
