Can't seem to lose the last 10-15 = Team up for success

Would love to join! I had 20 pounds to lose after my first year of college, have lost the first 10 but the last 10 refuse to budge! Count me in!

I would love to join. I am trying to loose my last 8lb to reach my goal weight. The first 9 came off relatively easily. Now I need extra motivation and advice for the last ones.

CW: 133
GW: 125 (or to fit in my red dress!!!!!)
Prize - apart from fitting in my red dress will be some great new clothes..

CW-157.5
GW-135
:happy:

I'd love to join this group! The last 15 is so freakin tough

I would like to join also. This weight loss is happening slowly.
SW: 147
CW: 128.5
GW: Not sure. My initial goal was 130 which I now realize was to low and I got to that so now I set it at 120. I was 105 in high school and 12 years ago during my "divorce diet" but I think the 120 or a little lower is more reasonable for now. I am 5'2". So after all that rambling :laugh: I will go with a GW of 120.

Ok ladies (I don't think we have any gents yet) so far we have 23 committments to shed up to 20 pounds - this is great! I am confident that together we will be able to meet our goals! I am posting your "names" please update with your starting weight, your goal, and your motivation or "prize" for hitting your goal. Just add a simley face beside your name so I know who updated and can track it :happy: I think it would be neat to see how much weight we collectively wish to lose, and to be able to track our progress as individuals and as a team.
bethy0316 I really need the motivation ... yesterday I started this and didn't do so well, but did drink 10 glasses of water. Hopefully you will let me join in. Thanks :flowerforyou:

Rogiefreida starting weight is 141.5 as of Sunday. Goal is 130, hopefully by 11/11, which is my BFF's wedding date where I will be wearing my very cute (and short! and sleeveless!) maid of honor gown.

sass30 starting weight is 137.5, my goal is 130 hopefully before the end of the summer. My goal isn't really weight but I really want a rock hard body. My motivation is my kids...I don't want them to have unproductive lives full of watching tv and sitting on the couch all day long. Once I achieve that awesome body/weight I am going t get a new tattoo on my side.
Sassy_Cass Starting weight 148 - goal 135 (13 pounds) My motivation is being able to love myself again, I want to look in the mirror and see past the jiggle and see a beautiful healthy version of me! When I reach the 10 pound mark (and my neighbor does as well) we are buying a new outfit and going on a double date with the men in our lives *they provide a tun of support when reaching for the chocolate bar*

shaindi :happy: Starting weight 126 - goal 115 (11lbs). 5 kids did not do pleasant things to my body. Meeting my goal will be rewarding enough, no other "prize" necessary!
sweettandb: Starting weight as of today is 175.4 lbs. Goal wt. is 167-170 (still slightly over the suggested BMI but I wouldnt look right at that recommended weight in my opinion). My motivation is being as healthy as possible in order to avoid numerous medical issues and being able to enjoy life to the fullest with my hubby and kids. Once I reach my final goal, I am going on a shopping spree for some lovely grown and sexy outfits. Hubby will like that.
neela31 currently 141. My goal right now is 135 (6 pounds), but I'd LOVE to get to 130 (11 pounds). I've been in a platuea for over a year!! My motivation is to be able to wear low rise jeans.

Hi everyone!
I have been drinking water like crazy! My body seriously craves it now! I've been drinking about 5 - 32oz bottles per day Hope everyone is doing great! Last week I decided to change things up a bit since I was feeling frustrated.... I changed my loss per week goal to .5 lb which gave me about 1440 calories to consume per day (yes this scared the heck outta me!). I also started c25k on friday and feel crazy to say it but im loving it- it really makes me want to push myself further which is very empowering I took a break from Jillian Michaels Ripped in 30- after completing 30 day shred...I just felt like I needed a break from her! Hopefully ill restart week 2 with her today (no promises there just yet lol). Sorry for the long post

Kick *kitten* today everyone
