in Motivation and Support
Hey Everyone!!! :smile: I have this ultimate goal to lose at least 40 lbs by New Years Eve. I'm hoping 6 months will be long enough if I eat properly and work out consistently like I am supposed to. I've been off and on this site for a couple years and am really wanting to stick with it this go around. I live alone with my dog, so I don't really have to worry about others bringing in food I'm not supposed to eat unless it's myself doing so. So far, so good though! :laugh: I'm looking for some motivational friends that are trying to achieve somewhat the same goal. So feel free to add me!! I love reading everyone's statuses and stuff! For myself I have about 75lbs to lose and just chose this as my first large goal! I'm hoping to have all of this off by next summer when it rolls around!! Any feedback or advice is always greatly appreciated. I'm always open and willing to answer any questions as well. =]
If anyone wants to join my group I started to help stay accountable and stuff, its called "I thought they said rum" Lol!
Have a wonderful day everyone!!

    Good luck! 40 lbs by Christmas is achievable!

    Just have to make sure all those Christmas goodies don't bite your in the butt once you're there ;)

    I'm in too! I was calculating some goals in my head as I walked yesterday and they are right on target with your goals. Let's go the distance!!!! For me the key will be to get back up if I fall down.

    Thanks guys!! I hope I can make it there! I would love to be able to go out somewhere on New Years Eve in something cute instead of staying in like i normally do! I'm excited for this for once! We will all reach our goal, I'm sure!!

    I have 31 lbs to lose and would love to do it by january but I'm not sure if ill get there since I have pcos and am on paxil. Hoping to get down to 10mg of paxil to see if it helps.

    Count me in too. 40lbs more by New Years would push me up to a major goal. I think we can do it =]

    I'm late, but I'm in! I'm 41 pounds away from my end-of-the-year goal. I NEED some support because I'm horrible at staying on track.

    I am late too but I would love to join. I think 40lbs would be a great loss for me and put me at a very healthy weight and I could definitely use some support!
