I’m currently in my work’s Biggest Loser Challenge and I have 48 days until my final weigh-in (June 1st). I’ve only lost 9lbs. My goal was to weigh-in at 127. Last weigh in I was 141. So I have 14lbs to go. My plan is to continue counting my calories, 1250 daily. Starting April 25th I’m doing a 30 day trial of hot-yoga (60-90minute sessions). At lunch M-F I either walk for 40 minutes, do yoga, or some sort of work out video like Turbo Jam or HIIT 20.

What can I do to really make sure I’ll hit my goal? Other than starve myself. Any suggestions or helpful tips?

Thanks guys! I appreciate any feedback!

    I could recommend a great weight loss program that includes all natural shakes as meals for braekfast and such.

    Make the majority of your 1250 calories come from lean proteins(chicken, turkey) and keep carbs low only eating green veggies or other high fiber foods.

    Wow! Sounds to me like you're really working hard!! I think you're already doing it - keep going and you'll get there!
    Maybe up your cardio a bit? I've got Jillian Michael's 30 day Shred video and it's awesome in a brutal sort of way! You sweat, and do intervals, and it keeps you moving! It's hard and I hate it, and I should be doing it right now!! I swear at her the whole 20 minutes, but it's effective!! ;-) it's gotta be, right??..... but what do I know, I'm a waffler from way back....

    I'm not big on shakes. I want to meet my goal, but I know that shakes and stuff don't work for me. I think I'll be ok with my diet. Cutting out carbs is probably a good call. What are some good carbs?? Anything? I'll have a hard time cutting them out completely.

    Ooo! I was thinking of Netflixing the 30-day shred video. It's only 20 minute workouts??

    Wow... you're my height and you're goal weight is really low!! Are you naturally a very small frame? I thought my goal weight of 127 was pretty low for my height. How's your meal plan work?

    Oops, I think I'm supposed to hit "quote" when I want to reply directly to you.
