Okay so I'm assuming there may be a ton of us on here that are college age- and even if not, I wanna get a group of some sort together!

Anyone interested in joining a group for motivation to reach our peak goals before going back in the fall- comment here!

Even if you're not in college and you'd like a fall deadline- comment too! :smile:

    I love deadlines, they really help me so this would be perfect. I will totally join your group!

    I have some goals set for September (I will be at WDW for my 25th Anniversary, staying at the Polynesian for a week in early September.), so hopefully that's close enough for this group. :)

    1. I want to be comfortable in a pair of size 6 Old Navy Sweetheart jeans. Not that they'll button, they do that now - I want them to be comfortable.
    2. I want to look nice in a high waisted, retro bikini.
    3. I want for all my size 10 shorts to almost, but not quite, fall off my hips when I wear them. (They fit comfortably with a bit of wiggle room right now.)
    4. I want to run 5k in less than 32 minutes. (I don't think I will make this one, but I am going to give it my all trying!)

    Yes, I'm in! I'm a part-time student and a teacher, so my life still works in academic years, rather than calendar years, and I always see September as a new start. Plus, by then, I will be starting a new job and running an half marathon, so this timing is perfect :)

    Awesome! Anyone have any ideas how to make a more intimate group of some sort? Or just leave it at this discussion?
    Here's my goals:
    I'm currently 5' 7'' 157 lbs - tons of muscle.
    Aiming to get to 145 which may be hard because of all the muscle. we'll see.
    I mostly just want to feel sleek any time my shirt is tucked in ;)
    Also I have a half marathon in October

    I want in!
    I'm starting my first year of college this fall :) I'm 5'10" and about 155 pounds. I would love to be 145 by the time fall rolls around!
    I have lots of muscle mass to so this would be a good challenge for me!!
