    I'm not sure if this is supposed to be where we post to start out the challenge. I don't even know exactly how to track these posts. I'm new to this stuff. anyhow my goals are in my "signature" and my NSV is to fit into my polka dot dress and my striped skirt by the time this challenge is over!

    To Niasya and everyone else wondering if you should make your goals hard to reach. I heard this saying and it so fits. Shoot for the eagle so you can bag the pheasant and not have to eat crow. I think we should all aim high with our goals. It makes us perform more than if we set our goals low:)

    I will come back later and post my goals. Glad to see everyone checking in today:)!!

    I am using my weigh in from last Tuesday as my current weight so I didn't have to break my rule for the last challenge and weigh in more than once a week. I am really excited about this challenge! Lets kick it off ladies, I love weighing in on Mondays, it will keep me well behaved on the weekends ;).

    CW- 164.2
    GW- 148 (by Sept 5)
    NSV # 1- Stick to my weight training workouts(3 x per week) and continue cardio training
    NSV # 2- Have started running again by Sept.
    NSV # 3- Don't gain weight on my honeymoon in August. Don't have to lose just don't gain is the goal.

    I am being ambitious too but so far that worked for me the last challenge. Super excited to see everyone's results at the end of this one!

    I would love to join in, great motivation when you know so many people are trying to achieve the same goal for themselves!!

    ___ my current weight is 143.5 and I would like to get to 128 by September 5 . If the weather keeps up that should not be so hard cause there's plenty of physical exercise to do in the summer !

    2. Be running 3+ miles 3 times a week
    3. Be a skinny size 7 jeans, or maybe even squeeze into a 5

    I'm in! I joined MFP back in October, but I've never been diligent with logging in my calories every single day, and I haven't lost any significant weight. I'm joining this challenge to keep me focused. Exercising is never the problem--I usually workout 6 days/week, 45-60 min/day. Overeating is my vice! I am a junk food addict, and I love second helpings when the food is good. I have also failed to lose my pregnancy weight from my first child and have carried this extra weight for almost 10 years! 10 years of excuses and giving in and eating extra calories. It's time for permanent changes and recognizing that every single calorie counts.

    CW: 202.6
    GW: 180

    NSV: Stay at my calorie limits! When I'm good and track every single calorie I eat and burn through MFP, working hard to obtain a weekly net calorie average of "0" over my weekly goal, I ALWAYS lose. I just need to stay within the limits and not go over for the next 11 weeks, and I'm confident I will hit my goal weight.

    Hi Everyone
    I would like to join in this challenge. I joined a gym at the weekend, on a special summer deal and it ends on 6th September so this challenge will make sure that I get the use out of it.
    I haven't done a challenge before so not really sure how it all works. I only have my previous starting weight (about 2 months ago) so I'll start with that and maybe adjust my target next week if that's ok.

    CW 225
    GW 205

    NSV Go to gym 5 days a week for at least 30mins.
    Stick to diet 5 days out of 7.

    Good luck everyone
