    S/W 154.8
    G/W 145
    P/C: work out more, weigh in every few days, now start doing this to make me happy with me not to make others happy with me. Take the frustrations of life and deal with them in a workout not a meal!

    I'm in! I have a holiday on 29th of September and this year I want to be confident in what I wear.

    Starting Weight - 150 lbs
    Goal - 145 lbs (I wanted to be 140 lbs by my holiday, however I don't want to put too much pressure on myself)
    Self challenge - I want to make sure I do exercise every day without fail. Even if it's a walk. I ALWAYS set myself this challenge, but I am so lazy I always fail. I did the 30day shred today, and I'm planning on incorporating the 6 week 6 pack. Another self challenge is to really cut down on processed carbs and sugars. I want to try and eat meats, vegetables, fruits with fats coming from cheese and nuts.

    I took 'before' pics this morning. I ate so badly this weekend (It's all in my diary, I try and stay honest) I must counteract that this week. I am really looking forward to my holiday, I don't want to look back on the pictures and regret not even trying.

    Feel free to add, note though that I am an avid 5:2er

    My September SW is 217
    My September GW is 207
    My personal challenge is to stay within my calorie range every single day if it kills me. This is my weakest point in losing weight.

    Today is the first day I have weighed in for 2-3 weeks so that is something I am glad I did too.

    Hello!
    I would like to join the September challenge, and I would like to lose 10 lbs by September 30th.
    I'll weigh in tomorrow morning, and after that, weigh in Friday mornings.
    I'll post again tomorrow after my initial weigh in.
    Goal for September: TBD tomorrow morning (-10lbs from tomorrow morning's weight)
    Self-Challenge:
    1) at least 10,000 steps daily (at least 5 days a week, with fitbit),
    2) no food after 8pm on "school nights",
    3) take all the classes at the y (3 different classes, it's not much) whether my friends show up or not.
    4) Drink at least 1 gallon water a day, everyday
    5) Plan weekly meals ahead, and pack all my lunches and snacks for work
    6) On days that I don't take fitness classes, get on the treadmill for at least 30 mins in the morning
    7) Daily Squats

    I am so down, this will keep me accountable for my goals! Since I'm really bad at self motivating , this will totally help me xD

    Starting weight: 180
    Goal weight: 165

    Challenge: To be persistant! Learn to be stronger mentally and resist temptations. Aim for gym at least 6 days a week.

    PS: Hit me up if you need a buddy on mfp! I sure would love to give support to you all and make new friends while trying to lose weight myself! <3
