My SW: 306 CW: 293 GW#1:250 etc..I'm going on til I'm happy with myself again. UGW: 130-140?

I want to be a hottie..how bout you? you know we got this.. ;)

    I'm going for 125. A 100 pound loss! We can do it, the scale isn't always our friend, and that's ok. It just forces us to work a little harder the next week!

    Good luck to you!

    I'm interested. I definately need motivation right now. I just came off of the depo shot and I gained 15 lbs in 3-4 months while on it! My goal is to lose 15-20 lbs so I can get pregnant and gain it all over again :> Seriously though I am trying to shed the excess fat so when I get pregnant with a second child I will look cute not enormous :>

    So I'm new to this whole making a group type thing..so here goes.. I will keep us posting in this thread. I didn't do enough research I guess. This is so different from Sparkpeople you just have to keep friends together through posts..I apologize for any confusion. And like I said in that other post I guess I will just keep this thread open so anyone can join as for now.

    So enough of that.

    I weighed myself this morning and since I was outside a lot yesterday working on the car I think it helped me to my advantage. I'm down again to 296. I'm super happy that I went down. I was getting worried that I wouldn't lose any while I was sick. I've been walking the dog around the block and trying to get some movement in. So yea.

    I'm so motivated you guys! You all inspire me to do better! I have so much to look forward to here. And I know this program works..well calorie counting that is. I wish I'd done it sooner.

    Later,

    Mal

    I weighed myself at 141.8 yesterday. It may not sound like a lot but I am 5'3" and I am carrying a lot of fat. My midsection is my biggest issue. I am also a little panicked because I just realized I have a physical fitness test next month. I am in the Air Force and I have to take a test which consists of 1 minute of pushups, 1 minute of sit ups, a waist measurement, and a 1.5 mile timed run. Last year I scored 94/100 which is considered excellent. I need to do about 40 pushups, 40 sit ups, have a 32" or less waist, and run it faster than 13 minutes. However, I gained 15 lbs since then and I only have four weeks (test is Aug 31st) to get myself where I want to be. I thought I had another month left so I am nervous. If you score poorly on these tests then it will hurt your career. So, my plan is to try to do 2 a day work outs. I already go to the gym Mon-Thursday in the morning so I think I'll add either a lunch work out or evening work out. I love to run but food has been my issue. I started the depo provera shot early this year and since then my appetite has been out of control. I stopped the shot but it can take a few months to almost a year to get out of your system. So long story short (sorry so long) I need to work out lots and eat great the next few weeks.

    I can't stand that a birth control can do that for a woman..they need to make a dude take a shot..or take pills. haha. I really think if you keep positive you will be able to reach your goals. That is amazing how your career is at stake. I understand not fully and completely but I know how weight can effect life changing things.

    I am rooting for you! keep up with the working out and that 15lbs will be nothing. Now I know you are a smaller woman than I am..I hear it's a slower process for smaller women. But I think if it's medicine related it should go away. I am just trying to be positive here. I love that you have a goal. Everyone needs a great goal. The steeper the consequences for me the better I do. I bought a wedding dress a year ago. I was losing weight and it's an 18..I gained all the weight back.. now I have to get into that dress or sell it. I'm not selling it. I don't want to be bigger than an 18. I know I'm waaaaay bigger than some here. I just have that as one of my goals. And move on down the scale as time goes on..

    Thanks for sharing! I love listening and getting to know people..helps me from snacking. I just get on here and read. ;)

    Hey guys! I've been using MFP for about 4 months but really haven't been tracking lately. Luckily I haven't gained any, but haven't lost either, so I'd really like to get back in the swing of things.

    CW: 192
    GW #1: 160....and we'll see how it goes from there :)

    Awesome!! Nice to meet you =)

    So since we only have 3 days left in July I am going to start off August with setting up a goal. It would be awesome for all of you to also! I want to lose at least 10lbs in August..

    but my goal is to up my workouts.

    If I'm not sick or anything I usually workout everyday..maybe skip one day a week.

    So I will make it my goal to workout for at LEAST 2hrs each day 5-6 days a week..most likely 6.

    I'm a fatty McFatty so I need to be working out. ;)

    With that being said..you have a couple days to setup an August goal! Ready, Set, Go! ;)

    My main goal for August is to get myself on a schedule (as far as eating, working out, meal planning for the week, etc.) before school starts next month. I've learned that if I don't have a pretty rigid schedule everything goes out the window as soon as I get busy.

    I'd also like to lose at least 5 pounds by the end of the month...kinda hoping the two go hand in hand :)

    I have set myself up with a mini goal this week! So far so good! I started doing a 40 minute walk in the mornings! I started Sunday afternoon around 2pm and it was dangerously hot outside..so I decided to do it in the early morning. =) depending on how long I can keep myself awake this will be great! I usually only log in 35mins though bc I'm out there with my dog and he likes to investigate everything! haha. I'd go for longer but I may start that next week.

    Sorry for not sharing sooner! I just know that I need to up my game and I think adding a brisk walk in the mornings will help out tons! I've also been working on getting back on a schedule too! I need to start getting back to bed at better times of the night. So better reasons for me to be up walking. =)

    So there you have it.. try to find something you need to work on this week and do it.. why not. You've got nothing else to lose but the weight.. ;)

    haha. I'm so lame. =D

    My August goal is to lose 5-7 lbs and get more toned. I have a fitness test for the Air Force August 31st so I am hoping to do well on that too. I was sick early this week so I didn't get in as many work outs as I'd like. So my goal for next week is 2 a day work outs for the whole week.

    Starting weight (August): 140
    Current weight 139

    Yeah it will be intense but I have this belly pouch from having a baby and it's the first place all the fat goes :smile: So I need to try to cut an inch or two off my waist.

    Amen to that, hubby has been home all week, so i right now i am completely thrown off. He's a truck driver and is usually gone for 6-8 weeks and is usually home 2-3 days, but hes been home for an entire week, which has been great, but bad for weightloss. when he is home were none stop on the go, which means always eating out and not being able to plan out my meals.
