in Motivation and Support
Hi all,

I have a weight loss goal I would like to reach by June 1. I find having a goal really motivates me.

I also have a 4.2 mile run I am scheduled to participate in at the end of April. That really keeps me motivated to exercise.

Anyone else have a goals that they want to reach by June 1? I figure we can post here to motivate each other and share our successes!!!

    Fantastic goals, can I join?

    End of March - 190lbs target, 5k run under 27 minutes (returning from injury)
    End of April - 184lbs target, 5k run under 26 minutes
    End of May - 180lbs final target, re-evaluate. Physio on trapezius should be finished by then, start going back to gym (nice and easy).
    End of June - Try to maintain 180lbs whilst regaining muscle mass, focus on a low fat diet.

    Prizes:
    #1 - New scuba dry suit
    #2 - Large Chicken Pakora Pizza

    My first goal is to see the back of old man Winter, so that I can get into the right frame to exercise every day.

    I'm shooting for goal weight by June 1 -- sand volleyball season starts here in early June, and I want to actually get some airtime at the net this season. If I can get close to goal by May, I can start doing plyo workouts without injuring myself. Really need to get some springs back in my legs.

    My goal is 10 to 15 lbs by June 1rst.
    Why? Because I am a belly dancer and I am trying to break out into another hard form of belly dancing, and i need to be thinner, have a strong core, legs and arms.

    Just by dancing more in the last two weeks, I've lost 5 lbs already! Woot!

    I would LOVE to do a Warrior Dash! I always thought it sounded like fun.

    I, too, love goals. I find that signing up for a run always helps to motivate me!

    I can see from your weight loss ticker that you have made awesome progress so far! I love how you have goals and prizes for yourself! I never thought about assigning rewards. I think I will have to do that.

    Lol. Where are you located? I am originally from New Jersey and they have had a very tough winter. Funny how in Arizona we have trouble exercising in the summer.

    Sand volleyball is a sport I would probably not be good at, lol, but Iove to watch. Good luck with your goal!!!

    I suggest doing it!! There are so many different levels of people. I am a very new beginner, and I have a friend who has done it 3 years in a row, she says you can go at your own pace, and you will feel amazing at the end!!! I can't WAIT for Warrior Dash!!!!

    My 10 year high school reunion is tentatively scheduled for June 28th (might be changing to early July because the other area high school is having theirs on the the night we wanted to have ours in the same place--both schools have since closed and the reunions are being planned by former students). I want to lose at least the 44 lbs I have to go by then. I weighed in at 180 when I graduated and it would be great to be close to that for the reunion.

    Hi!

    I have a few mini goals leading up to June 1st (Well, actually by my birthday, May 30th, which is pretty close to June 1st), but my ultimate goal is to be at my goal weight (anything slightly under 120... so i can use 120 as my "hazard" number to make sure I'm staying on track or so I can be at worst 120 on a bad day... etc.). I am also going to Vegas in May for the first time so I would love to be as close as possible to that goal! I always start working out in the beginning of the year, show great results, then by the time summer comes around I plan too many social activities to stay on track with my fitness and end up having a non-beach bod half way through the season. Hopefully I can motivate myself to stay on target all summer!

    The old high school reunion, lol! Nothing like that for motivation, huh? I had to skip my 25th since I live out of state. I was okay with that though since I was not my healthiest self.

    An update from me. I lost 5 pounds this week! Woot! Been a lot more active and have been focusing on getting more protein. Just 12 weeks til my cruise!

    You guys have AWESOME goals. I am going to shoot for 1 lbs/week, so I should be ~176 lb and I would love to be able to run 2 miles STRAIGHT. I am hoping to do my FIRST 5K in August. Hopefully, the spring weather will get me motivated to move my butt into high gear!

    1. Be under 180 lbs
    2. Be a size 10
    3. Running for 20 minutes straight
    4. Be able to do 5 push-ups
