I am frankly getting tired of this vicious cycle of weight loss in the summer/weight gain in the winter every damn year, but alas I failed to maintain my weight yet again this winter. Planning to lose about 20 lbs by summer. This time I want to keep it off. Who's down?

I’m going away for Easter, so only have 4 weeks to lose 10lbs....after that I’ll have the 30-40 lbs I gain on All Inclusive to lose for summer 😂

Up and Down is tough. I'm using myshape.fitness (google it) to track weight and body shape. It will let you set that goal and then also you'll see when you start creeping up again and know it's time to get back on the wagon!7

So what's everyone's plan?3

I am down. Trying to get to 205.3

Hi, just joined. I’m in. 10kg to go!5

Let’s do this2
-
Going low fat and no sugar this week! Hopefully the weigh in next Sunday will be a good surprise. Walking at least two miles per day!8
-
During that 2 mile meditative walk be sure to throw in some intervals where are you’re just really throwing yourself into it for about a minute in between about every four minutes of a medium fast walk! Very effective.5

I'm in! Exactly the sort of weight I'm looking to shift and yes, please, forever not just for summer This year!4

rdthoms, thanks for the tip about the myshape site! Wow. I have some work to do...2

Alright, so how can we create a group chat or something to track each other's progress?
Let's weigh-in every Monday (starting tomorrow) and post our progress here maybe?8 -

My weigh in

Goal 147
I’m doing ADF until our holiday, eating 600 calories on DD and around 1500 on UD. Need to move more too. I’ll aim for 10000 steps daily this week and gradually build up to 15000 a day over the coming weeks.3 -
I was looking the calendar this morning, and it hit me hard that summer is about 8 weeks away. Definitely need to get it started here!5

My summer is more than 8 weeks away! I'm aiming for July, probably mid..... realistically I'd be delighted with 170 by 31 July when I break for a month from work4

Hey, all! I've been reading the "petty" thread in a different forum and it's so awesome- thought it might be fun to ask the same question here in this little group: We all have health-driven motivations for losing, but what's your "petty" reason for sticking with this?
Some of mine:
- I want to look as good/better than the other middle-aged moms when we go to the pool on vacation
- I want to fit into my size 4s again (been a while)
- I miss being called tiny (again, been a while!)4
