I have a vacation to FL coming up in 8 weeks from tomorrow. I've been doing okay with the weight loss but I want to really kick it into high gear these next 8 weeks. Since my trip is on a thursday, and my work weeks start on Thursdays, my start day is going to be tomorrow Thurs 4/16. Super excited!
My goal is to lose 20lbs (difficult but doable...I think!) by consistently meal prepping and working out at least 4-5 days/week.
What are your goals?

I want to drop 2 pounds per week!0

I love all the wrong foods, pizza, chips, fried everything! I am certain that I go over 2,000 calories daily. My fitness pal has shown me that my diet is fat, carb, sugar and salt heavy...bad bad bad, so here I am! I need a challenge. Started today. Taking healthy snacks to work and meals that I can accurately count calories. NOT ordering out tonight, also avoiding vending machines.

Hello. I would like to be down 10kg from yesterday. I was hoping I would find a group like this haha
I want to wear that cute bathing suit I ordered from China a year ago XD I got the largest size, but even that is somewhere smaller than a medium in North America P:
I am planning on doing wii fit five mornings a week, to walk everywhere that is under a 25 minute walk from anywhere I am at the moment, and to swim three times a week for 50 laps. Basically I am putting more exercise in my life because that is where I struggle the most P:0 -
My goals for the next 8 weeks are to exercise regularly (4-5x wkly), drink plenty of water, and lose at least 20 lbs. Oh, I also need to remember to take my vitamins daily.0

Hey Everyone and thanks to LyndsGetsFit64 for creating this group. I've been on my journey for a little more than a month and was able to loose 11 lb. I am planning on going to visit my country in June and I want to make sure I look good....especially since it will be summer time. My plane is leaving on June 11th which is EXACTLY 8 weeks from tomorrow! I feel like this is another chance and great motivation for me to get feet and kick *kitten*
My goal is to loose 16 pounds which is approximately 2 pounds per week. %80 of success will depend on my diet, and oh....it's not gonna be easy, but so worth it!!!
And of course work out, work out, work out!!!
Let's do it ladies!!!0 -
Id love to loose 20lbs by May 25 but I'm not sure that's doable, and even if I do. Id get to Vegas and gain it all back by day 3 And wouldn be able to fit any of my cloths in my suitcase.0

Yayy! I am excited. This is the perfect duration for me to stay focused. I started a few days back. Goal is to come out of 60s once and for all. Would like to lose 0.8 kg/week. It's much harder to lose now that I am not overweight, but I need to keep my blood pressure down.0

Hi everyone! I'm graduating from college in 8 weeks so I really want to lose some weight before then! My long-term goal is to lose 25-30lbs but for graduation I'm only aiming for 10-15 since I have so much schoolwork to do for the next 8 weeks. I definitely need the motivation! Good luck to everyone 0

Yes, this is great! I am trying to lose weight by late May because I am graduating from a PhD program. I want to walk across that stage feeling good! Because I have about 5-6 weeks til then, my goal is to lose 12-15 pounds.0

I'm getting married July 3. I want to focus on toning my arms and overall cardio, and I want to log what I eat every day as best I can. I've been on MFP since last August with mixed success. When I log everything I eat, I tend to lose weight. Easier said than done, though, and sometimes I grow weary of logging and just stop altogether. Then, without logging, it's easier to not think about what I'm eating.0

Honeyscone-- I gained weight in grad school. Grad school is so much work that it's hard to balance everything AND stay healthy all the time. Congrats on your upcoming graduation!!

First of all, thanks a bunch for organising this challenge. It could not have come at a better time. I'd like to keep the goals nice and simple: 1kg a week with a stretch goal of 10Kgs in the 8 weeks. As I just joined this challenge, my first day will be tomorrow (its 10:15pm in Australia right now). I will be aiming to hit 10,000 steps a day (I currently range between 5 - 7000).0

Hi everyone! I was doing OK until I got off track Easter weekend and I haven't been able to get back on the wagon since. I joined this group looking for some motivation and support and as well as offering mine. I'm a stay at home mom with knee and back issues so I am limited as to how I can workout. This is mostly about eating for me since I am a stress eater. I weigh in on Saturday mornings, and in 8 weeks I would love to be down 10 pounds.0

I'd like to lose an average for 1.5lbs per week during this challenge - so 12lbs. I'm currently 190, so at the end of this challenge hope to be around 178 at least. I also want to start meal planning and prep! And of course logging everyday. I want to make an effort to exercise about 5 days a week - mixture of cardio (3 days) and strength training (2 days). I want to be able to do 20 pushups with no modifiers! And run a mile without stopping. HAHAHA0

3. 12k daily step goal
4. 1 hr aerobics class each week
5. 2lbs a week loss
I wish everybody all the success in these 8 weeks.

I have a wedding to attend in exactly 8 weeks. I been fairly focused on eating clean and hitting my workouts the past 3-4 weeks and am currently down almost 8 lbs. I don't know if I'll make my goal weight in time (would need fairly aggressive weight loss) but I'm determined to get as close to it as possible in the next 8 weeks! I bought my dress for the wedding yesterday and it zips just barely but should be perfect in 8 weeks - I'm going to try it on weekly for my motivation to stay on track 0

I would like to join. I have lacked willpower like crazy lately. I would be happy with 8 lbs in 8 weeks. I need to stop the stress eating. I think for 8 weeks:
1. no chocolate except chocolate flavored protein powder
2. no wine -ugh
3. run at least 20 miles a week
4. quit eating junk I do not even like.0 -
I want to lose 2lbs per week so that I'm slim n trim for my summer holidays in Spain . I've lost 12lbs so far at about 1-2lbs per week but it has slowed down, stalled actually
I stopped logging what I was eating so I'm going to start that up again.
Good luck everyone !0 -
Thank you for making this group. I need motivation. I can go off to the races one second and then the next i ask myself why am i bothering. I know it's a bad habit that i need to fix. I'm going to Disney in July and I'm hoping to lose some weight by than. I'd love to lose a total of 65lbs in total. (Doesn't have to be before July but would be nice lol)0

Hey! My birthday is June 7th and I want to lose as much as possible! Not sure if 20ls is doable but I'll work for it either way!0
-
My goal is more of an end of the year goal. But I do hope to be down 1/2 stone by the end of the 8 weeks, however there is a sneaky weekend away in there, and my birthday! Haha! Also hoping to regain some running fitness back that I have let dwindle over the last few months

Hi everyone. I joined the group coz I wanted some sort of accountability. And want to loose about 15kg. I'm new here so when I started with the weight in I saw I was class 1 obese I freaked out, coz I'm weight conscious. Now have not lost much and I don't feel good about it. By the way can anyone tell me what can I substitute for bread coz I eat it alot. Thanx and good luck to all0

Oh I also go to gym about 4 times a week. I don't have a stick exercise plan but been doing cardiovascular so far0
