    **Motivated to stick with it this time! Warmer weather is coming, and I want to keep going strong! Goal: 3-4x a week 25-30 mins cardio (at least)
  • Hello. :) Hopefully nobody minds me hopping on this wagon a little bit late for April. I had something of a shocking revelation a few days ago, and I'm feeling dramatically motivated to turn my habits around starting NOW! (Most of this can be attributed to the fact that the weather is finally starting to warm up here and suddenly I'm way less concerned with snacking on sweets underneath a blanket while watching movies and reading books, and way more concerned with how extremely hot and humid it's going to be getting after a couple more months and how few clothes I want to be wearing by then without painful rashes wherever my skin rubs as a side effect!) So... Here I go... :)

    * My plan right now is to majorly cut back on sweets... Drink more water... And make sure I get out and move and enjoy the sunshine for at least an hour or two a day. :)

    Words for Bambi2578: I obviously can relate about being motivated by the promise of warmer weather! Good luck with your goals! <3 And nicely done on your last loss.

    My first weigh in isn't good. Can't blame though. Had to attend a buffet lunch and couldn't exercise this week.
    1st April: 66.6kg
    9th April: 66.6kg
    16th April:
    23rd April:
    30th April:

    My challenge this week is to exercise everyday and continue eating clean.

    I SUCK AT SETTING A GOAL AND ACCOMPLISHING IT! This is how I found this group. 5 lbs in April is certainly doable. But I need support and accountability.

    Everybody we can do it! I had a week or 2 of little weight lost, but I got back to it and ended up losing a lot the following weeks! So don't let the weigh in bring you down! Let's get fit and healthy :-)

    For Fun: what boosted me up this week was that this is my last week of T25 and I want that "Nailed it" t-shirt! LOL

    Great job everyone! Let’s finish off February in style—

    ```````````````````````````````````````````````````````
    I joined this Group in January. I was suppose to start back after my winter break(Feb 28-March 17). Finally, 4 weeks later and I’m back, better late than never. My regular weigh-in day is Tuesday at my Get In Shape for Women studio.

    March 4 150.6
    3/11 150.6
    3/18 150.2
    3/25 150.2
    3/31 151.8

    April 1 152.8
    4/8 153.4
    4/15
    4/22
    4/29

    My April goal weight is the same as February, 150 pounds, as I’ve slid backwards since my winter break. My primary goal is to be healthy, then fit.

    Milnorawr: Your inspiration sums it up the best “to be healthy”

    Empressmee: Great progress, keep up the excellent dedication.

    Sheri3851: What commitment you have, I’m glad it’s working for you.

    To all of us who now can be outdoors w/o ice and snow, let’s do this !!!
