Ok so Monday is here and Cw= 247 i've decided that my goal weight will be 232. Considering that i managed to lose ten pounds in eight weeks doing midsummer meltdown i think losing 15 pounds should be achievable. My NSV goal is at the end of this to finally be down a dress size, those UK 18's have been hanging on for a while now.
Hope to see you all soon!0 -
The official kickoff of F4F has arrived! :drinker: ....:drinker: ....:drinker:

********************** WEEK # 1 CHALLENGE ******************************
Food - Drinking 10 glasses of water each day. Water is so important to a healthy lifestyle but is often forgotten about during the day. Here's word of warning.....Don't wait until the end of the day to get in all your water....you won't have a good night's sleep!
Exercise - Include weights into your workouts. Whatever your exercise routine is, include hand or ankle weights to get that extra strength training. You choose the weight
Good Luck, Everyone!!0 -

Okay, so my weight is up from last week. Not super thrilled about that but I didn't have the greatest weekend eating either so I"m going to assume that will just come off in a couple days. I haven't come up with my NSV yet so I will report back when I do.0 -
