    I have some health issues right now so can’t do much to exercise, but starting today I am giving up candy. Specifically Werthers caramels. I have been eating 3-4 bags a day for a month. Today is my first day with none! I am in for losing weight!

    OK, I'm in.
    I have come back to this thread a few times, and clicked out again, because I'm scared to commit to a challenge because I'll feel bad if/when I flub it. But I am more dedicated that ever, and it helps that I am signed up to resume TKD classes commencing 3 October so this fits. I'd really like to show up to Christmas lunch with my family with a noticeable difference in weight!

    My goals:

    - track food minimum 5x a week
    - Stick with TKD, 2 classes a week
    - No drinking on a work night (events/occasions excepted)

    I'm not going to make a weight loss goal, because I don't want to be disappointed if I don't meet it.

    I'm pretty active on here (after a long hiatus) and always happy to accept friend requests.

    I'm in. I'm far from perfect and have lots of slip ups (such is life sometimes) but I'm hoping to keep my weight & blood sugar under control through the holiday months.

    I usually weigh on Saturdays but don't always hit the community boards except week days so I'll post updates during the week.

    Goals:
    lose at least 5 lbs by end of year (which still allows lots of slip ups)
    have A1C under 6 by mid-November doctor appt
    exercise (walk, zumba, eliptical, weights, etc) at least 3 times per week

    I'm excited for to start with this group tomorrow.

    I was very active on MFP for a few years before the Pandemic, weight training at my local gym.
    But with my high risk husband and children, I had to quit the gym.
    While we did purchase a good amount of gym equipment in my basement, I seem to like to workout AWAY from my house.
    In my house, I have too many distractions:
    - I see the basement freezer and think about defrosting chicken for dinner
    - washing machine reminds me to do the next load of laundry
    - then the dog wants to go out, or join me
    - I should load and run the dishwasher, etc etc...

    So I switched to walking/hiking and eating all sorts of crap, so loss of muscle mass and pounding on the weight.

    I started on 9/6/2022 to de-bloat off 7# so far.
    Oh, I'm wicked short 4'11", so 5# on me means a different pant size.
    So now I'm back to my starting weight (back to January 2020).
    I started with:
    1. tiny Daily WO Challenge: glute bridges and tricep pushups
    2. tiny weight training WO, working on increasing the duration, variety, and weight amount



    Goals:
    1. regain muscle mass/do more weight training

    2. be able to do 1 pull-up again (maybe do 5 by end of December? I did 8 in 3/5/2019)

    3. Lose weight
    - lose 1.5#
    - lose 5.5# (cumulative)
    - lose 9.5# (lowest weight since puberty)
    - lose 11.5# by 1/1/2023

    4. No LNS - late night snacking, which is my biggest downfall

    5. Eat mostly 90% plant-base (similar to Forks Over Knives) for my cholesterol,
    so I'm not going to be going crazy with the amount of protein I take in.


    Tell me about your goals.
