    My original goal was the end of August but life got in the way :smile: anything that can help me get my focus back on track is okay with me, and an excuse to buy a new dress is always fun!

    Welcome, quansc and vmckinzey!!! I'm so happy that you ladies have joined us! :) Our little group is growing!

    I will weigh in again next Sunday. I have been doing a lot of resistance training, and I don't want the fluid gains to throw me off, so I'm going to give my body a few days to adjust.

    Smart thinking, when I started resistance training the weight gain like to have driven me crazy . . . it's hard to see the scale going up when all you really want is for it to go down - but it pays off in inches :smile:

    It might take more than a week, I think it took me almost two for the scale to act right!

    My weight this morning was 151.4 . . . surprising since I had a crazy weekend with a big bacon cheeseburger, ice cream and chocolate candy - but I also had almost a whole week without any fried foods! Not by choice but maybe I should rethink that :happy:

    You know, I think I may take your advice on that. I'm going to wait another week before weighing in again. Thanks!

    Welcome to all of our newest challengers!!! :) I'm so glad to have you join us!

    I have been chugging away at my dusty beachbody programs and so far I feel very committed - I just have to remember to log my workouts and food. :)

    I hope that everyone is doing well!

    Welcome new challengers!

    Shavonda, I'm doing Slim in Six and I'm giving strong consideration to 21Day fix.
  • HI I'm Gigi! I have been struggling with consistency. I thought perhaps joining one of the groups would help with support. I hadn't thought about the year ending but it would be really great to get into a smaller dress size for 2015.

    Starting weight: 221
    Current weight: 209
    Goal weight: 190
    Ideal goal weight but it seems to large to think about 175
