    I'm in Momma24! I have 2 weeks of vacations in July so will need some motivation to stay on track.

    I would like to lose 4 pounds between June 24th and July 22nd

    My weekly goal
    1 pound per week
    at least 240 minutes of cardio and 60 minutes of weights per week
    at least 90 ounces of water everyday
    eat more vegetables!

    Sherry: You're absolutely adorable and you have me hooked!

    Cris: Set a goal we'll see you on Fridays! I agree with Sherry that once is week is better than not seeing you at all!

    Okay, this might be a bit aggressive, but I'm setting a goal of 6.8 lbs. lost between June 24 and July 22nd. I say aggressive because the weight loss is pretty slow since I'm getting close to my goal weight. (Did I really just say that??) This means 1.7 lbs. per week to get me down to 170 and within 20 lbs. of goal.

    My weekly goal:
    1.7 lbs. per week
    Running a minimum of once weekly
    Two strength training sessions weekly

    Hold me accountable, ladies!

    I'm in Momma! Thanks for the added focus. Like Cris, I'll set my goals this Friday.

    While I'm here, checking in for the weekend:

    Friday:
    Cals - Crazy over. Went out with some sorority sisters I haven't seen in 9 years and we had WINE and FUN!! I didnt' get home until 3:40 a.m.! HAHAHAHAHA!
    Water - 64 oz
    Exercise - Walked 30 min
    Proud - Had a ton of fun with old friends!

    Saturday:
    Cals - Over...someone might have picked up a pint of pistachio ice cream and lost her ability to stop eating on the way home...
    Water - 40 oz - NEEDED MORE
    Exercise - Walked for 30 min
    Proud - Eh....didn't pick up TWO ice creams?!?!

    Sunday:
    Cals - Under with exercise! Hallelujah! 1465
    Water - 64 oz
    Exercise - Walked 30 min
    Proud - Rediscovered portion control!

    I need to think about a realistic, actionable goal for this - will probably wait until Friday's weigh-in.

    Great it looks like a lot of us are going to do this. The reason I set my goal so high 2 lbs a week is I am no where near my goal still well over 200 pounds there is no reason why I can't lose 2 pounds a week for at least the first few weeks of really trying hard. So YAY we are going to do this. Don't forget to post your goals on Friday then each Friday after that keeping us updated on where we stand goal wise. I knew you would all start rallying around.

    Just wanted to let everyone know that I finally got a hold of Nancy (blue) her 85 yo father fell and broke his shoulder, arm, and elbow about a month ago. She said she has been on a roller coaster from hell this last month trying to get some answers for her dad. She is now caring for him full time and she has just been so busy and frightened by all that is going on with him. She says to tell you all that she loves you and she will get back as soon as she can but right now it is just impossible.

    I really feel for Nancy. We're going through something very similar with my 87 year old grandmother right now. She fell last Tuesday and hasn't been doing well at all. :frown:

    I am in on the challenge!

    My goals are:
    1.5 lbs/week, total 6 lbs
    Minimum 3 of my 24oz water bottles/day
    Exercise (50/50) 6 days/week

    One caveat: I am on a jr. high mission trip starting Friday afternoon. I will be trying to track food on my Droid, but no community. I will be back by noon, July 1, so will be a bit late on my updates. Since I asked the pastor to put me on a team with physical labor :tongue: - I am hoping that it will meet my exercise needs!

    Thanks for setting this up Momma - I think that it will keep us all motivated.

    I think if you were counted in this month, you would definitely hit a great weight loss - once that little gal is out!:wink:

    Yesterday's check-in:


    Calories: 113 under
    Water: 80 ounces
    Sodium: 480 under
    Exercise: 1 hour of personal training
    Proud: my trainer said I had "grit" when I pushed through the pain and did more than he thought I could. I was also glad I didn't come anywhere close to feeling like I'd be sick.

    ladeb - Glad my crazy weekend looked a bit familiar!

    Checking in for Monday:
    Cals - Over - 1858. DANG YOU COOKIE CAKE! We started our summer growth group last night. It's a dinner group so we'll be making a meal together each week. Last night our dessert person brought in a cookie cake, and well...poor choices abound.
    Water - 80 oz - YEAH!!
    Exercise - The usual 20 min walking + rushing around cleaning the house (which will now be every Monday!)
    Proud - Minus the cookie cake, dinner was a well-balanced meal (salad, roasted potatoes, flank steak) and our first group went really well.
