in Motivation and Support
Well, as I predicted ... when I started school back this semester I got a little off track. It was preventable and part of me believes I did it just because I knew it was an easy thing that COULD happen so i just went with it. I guess I just started eating crazy stuff and excusing myself from exercise on the weekends while eating the crazy stuff.

This summer I was sooo focused, because it's all I had to do. It was nice. I am going to a military ball with my boyfriend in FOUR weeks exactly and I was wanting to be under 130 pounds. That is not going to happen, but I'm okay with that. My goal is to at least weigh 131 though. I'm afraid to weigh myself but last time I checked I was 134, so it wont be impossible. I also want to be tan - but that's besides the point.

So I was part of a group over the summer where we were set out to lose 10 pounds by a certain date. I did pretty good. I thought it would be fun to be the group leader though (and it may make me work harder!) Every week we would weigh in and have daily challenges.

I really just want a support system of people that perhaps want to lose 4 pounds in the next four weeks as well? I would write down your names and keep up with everyone's weight every week! and perhaps do it until the end of October. Maybe some motivation to look/feel good if you're going out for Halloween!!!

So who wants to be part of my group!?! I will definitely be here for motivation and support and perhaps send out daily challenges (not everyday, but you know!)

Weigh in days would be:
Tomorrow morning (Sept. 26) -
Monday Oct. 3rd -
Monday Oct. 10th -
Monday Oct. 17th -
Monday Oct. 24th -
Monday Oct. 31st -

and I will send out messages as reminders. at least if there's not a million people

    I'm on a complete other level with about 65 lbs to lose, so your group would not fit me. But the point of my reply is that I am married to a soldier and have been to both balls and dining ins. I just wanted to see if you had any questions about protocol for the dates cuz I know no one really talks to the girlfriends about that kind of thing.

    Oh thank you so much! well my boyfriend isn't in the military - its actually his brother and brother's wife (his brother is "taking me" and his wife and "taking my boyfriend) so I plan on asking his sister-in-law a bunch of questions! I'm so excited!

    If you are still taking people, I would love to join! I was losing pretty steadily, but have been struggling lately as I get closer to my goal.

    thank you so much for adding me! I would also love to lose about ~4lbs in the next 4 weeks, so I can finally make it to the 120s. I'm getting so close to my goal! I haven't been this small since I was probably 10 years old:) My starting weight was 133.4 lbs
