    Count me in as well.

    Current weight185 and 40 to go and I would take 45..Having a rough time losing!!! Working hard.. 5 days at the gym..Eating 1250 calories a day and all the exercise calories.. By the way mother of two.. 12 year old boy and a daughter who recently turned 2.. Terrible two here I come!!!
  • Can I join this?

    I'm 5'8", and 161 pounds, and want to be 148 in six weeks - I've set my goal for 2lbs a week, but will be happy to lose 1 pound per week! My ultimate goal is 138, but I would like to hit 148 as a first goal.

    Although my BMI says I'm not overweight (BMI = 24.5) I'm pretty close, and need to get fit again! 148 lbs will give me a BMI of 22, which is a healthy start.

    I have to change my relationship with food, and while I know I can do this, I've failed so many times in the past.

    Good luck to everyone.

    Goal Weight 148

    I would maybe suggest bummping up your calories a little bit. I did it and it seemed to work. I went from 1200 to 1400 and lost 3 lbs in a week.

  • ok you guys will get sick of me. :laugh: what do you all do for exercises?? Im a huge on biggest losers workouts:happy:

    I'm just starting out - any ideas? Biggest Loser? I was thinking of pulling out the old Winsor Pilates VHS tapes! I'm going to try and run on the treadmill every morning before the kids get up, and then try and do a video (or DVD now I guess!) each evening.

    I also have two little ones at home (2 & 4). I am a SAHM, and find myself eating all day long! Gotta break that habit.

    I am also a SAHM due to a disabilty and I so understand what you are going through. I would suggest eating like whole grains for breakfast. I eat a bowl of Cherios (sp) normally 2 servings and milk in the morning and then make sure to have a snack a couple hours later like about the time your kids are starting to get hungry but not enough for lunch. I find myself eating PB&J for lunch or Tuna sandwich. Then I eat another snack when the kids get home or right before they get home and then supper and then sometimes (depends on the night) something a couple of hours after super depending on my calorie intake.

    I watch the Biggest loser every week and a tip they gave this week was to always have snacks (100 calories) ready for you at all times otherwise you are just going to grab whatever is available.

    Water drink lots of water. I use to be a BIG sweet tea person and drank a lot of it and also a BIG pop person and I now went to ALL water. I drink more than 64oz a day now. I crave it all the time. It will keep you full.
  • I can't seem to get the quoting thing to work...

    Thanks for the tips! I HAVE to get used to the water - that is my goal for tomorrow!

    okay, so, some of you may remember me. I've been off the wagon for awhile. Gotta get my butt back in gear. I have to get back on here daily. I gained some back after the holidays and I quit smoking, so that didn't help. Now I'm trying to get what I gained back off.
    soo....
    current:163
    Goal: (145-138)

    knowing how my weight comes off when I really try, it's going to take me over 5 months. I tend to only lose on average of 4 pounds a month. I lose 1, then 2, then none for a couple of weeks, etc. So I'm not going to push myself like crazy.
    I'm going on a girls weekend with 9 other women in November, so that's my goal, but would love to be at goal by summer.

    Is this what you had for lunch? I don't know how many calories are in the soup or what you had for breakfast so it is hard to say.

    What do you typically eat in a day? And do you work out?
