Hi, my goal for the next 4 weeks is to:
lose 12lbs
taking the stairs at work
work out at least 30min 5 days
log in daily
Drink more water
I have a lot more than 12lbs to lose, but if I can focus on this first 12lbs then I know I will be able to keep going. I would like to surpass my exercise goal, but what I have down is what I feel I could do starting out.0 -
I think this is what I need. I am in need of some motivation.
CW 192
GW after 4 weeks 184
Goals for myself the next four weeks

Drink more water
Good luck everyone!0 -
Hi, Thanks for starting this. I could use the extra focus. Goals for the 4 weeks.
Weight down from 146 to 141. Just over a pound a week.
No alcohol.
Log daily.
All meals planned.0 -
Hello there, it seems that I was doing great up until the holidays and then for some reason, I can't seem to get back into reaching my goal. I need support and a challenge is a great way for me to get motivated.
My goal for the next 4 weeks is to do and finish all the challenges posted here. Log daily including the weekends (this is my biggest weakness). Plan all my meals and stick to them no detouring at all. I will log everything that goes in my mouth no matter what.
That is my goal for the next 4 weeks.0 -
My goals for the next four weeks
Loss 8 pounds
workout 5 days a week at least 45 min
drink only water
no sugar/ treats0 -
My goals:
Log calories every day and meet goal calories for the week
Exercise 30+ minutes at least 4 days/week (I have horribly long work hours)
Hope to lose 8lbs in the next 4 weeks (challenge will be family visiting and birthday next week)0 -
~*~My Goals~*~
1. Eat Clean:
NO Junk Food
Portion Control
2. Workout in some form Everyday
3. Lose 12-15 pounds
4. Do some form of flexibility workout (Yoga/Pilates/Ballet Beautiful) 2X a week
5. Do some form of weight training 1X a week
I know it seems VERY ambitious, but lets aim for the stars0 -
My goals:
I started doing 100 days of fitness, so continue doing that. 45 min of cardio 6 days a week.
Log everything (hard to do with my anniversary dinner tomorrow night!)
Drink more water
Watch the pounds hopefully come off!0 -
My goals for the next four weeks will be:
1 - Drink more water, at least my two litres a day. I hate water, so this is a biggie for me.
2 - Work out daily, even if my workout buddy can't make it. That isn't a reasonable excuse to not go.
3 - Log everything that I eat, even the awful and embarrassing stuff.
4 - As much as possible, keep a positive attitude.
I know this may sound a little trite, but whatever weight I lose will be a victory for me.0 -

CW - 195
GW - 187
If I can lose 2lbs a week in four weeks that would be amazing and I can also say goodbye to the 90s and hello to the 80s. BTW - love how you're referencing each 10 lb groups. Hah!
Goals
- Track EVERY day (even if it means filling in a previous day the next morning)
- Exercise 5 days a week - 3 of those must be 30 min of cardio
- Get my butt to the gym to do weights at least 2x week
- Drink more water, and less coffee w/sugar and cream
- Take more short walks with the dogs
I put on the same 20lbs again this the last year and a half. Peri-menopause is now in full swing and has been kicking my butt. I'm now ready to fight back by being more aware of what's going on with me physically and mentally. Now experimenting with various supplements under doc's care to see which help with hot flashes, mental fog, energy, and such.

Hi My name is Melissa
my CW is 140.9. I'm having a hard time losing so this challenge will help.
4 week GW: 138
I've been eating within 1200-1500 cal/day with good workouts for last 3 weeks and haven't lost so this GW seems reasonable to me
My goals for 4 weeks:
1. exercise 5 days a week with intensity (currently at 4 days a week)
2. exercise on weekends doing something fun with lower intensity (walking, biking, etc)
3. Meet goals for protein intake daily (just started paying attention to this last week)
4. To enjoy my short vacation over the President's Day weekend with some indulgences but not over do it. (every year this is the weekend that ruins my motivation)
5. Measure foods to log more accurately
6. Log everyday-even weekends when I want to forget it all0 -
I'm so happy to find a challenge that I can join at the beginning -- instead of halfway through!
My goals:
- Log all my food, even the bad & ugly
- Make it to the gym 3 days a week and complete an intense workout
- Pre-plan every meal
- Get organized (this one may sound weird, but if I am organized, I don't have to stress about what's for dinner, what did I forget in my gym bag, etc)
Good luck to us all!

CW: 180
GW: 165
I was down to 168lbs in December, so I feel my goal is very achievable. I've been working out hard everyday doing the 30 day Shred workout and Pilates, and will get back to logging my meals. I would encourage everyone to try the 30 day Shred, it's an amazing program, it's easy and you will see amazing change fast (here is the level 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Pc-NizMgg8).
This is my first time joining a challenge group and I am super ready to smash this!
