    I am a little upset because I really did good this week with my diet as well as my exercise. I thought I would have lost more, but hey I guess any loss is better than gain:smile: I hope to do better this week and I keep trying to remind myself that muscle weighs more than fat.

    Exercised 5 days and ate my exercise calories. I absolutely love this concept. I've had larger losses, but I never kept them off. Slower is working better for me.

    I'm in too!

    Today will mark the beginning of Week 3 of my "new life" and although I have a good 70lbs. that I want to lose when it's all said and done with, I love the idea of setting a short-term goal for Memorial Day. Fantastic idea! :drinker:

    Program Start Weight: 224
    Current Weight: 219
    Ultimate Goal Weight: 155
    Memorial Day Goal Weight: 205

    My weight in days are typically Mondays so I will update then. GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE. WE CAN DO THIS!!!
    :flowerforyou:
  • OK it's Monday again, my weigh in day.

    Current weight: 135.6
    Goal weight: 124
    Weight loss this week: 1 lb.

    Not bad, but I have got to do better if I want to make it by Memorial Day! I will try harder this week and challeng myself to lose at least 2 lbs. this week. Oh I hope I can do it.

    How is everyone else doing? Good luck and have a great week.

    Current weight: 152
    Goal by Memorial Day 136
    Goal per week: 2.2
    Lbs lost this week: .5
    Lbs lost total: 4.5

    This slow weight loss is killing me. But it is worth it, cause I am so much more active to burn those calories :happy: that i then turn around and eat right up :laugh: . but that's ok, i figure it is leading me to a healthy way of life. I am learning that if i want to eat more, then i have to exercise more. Best wishes to all of you this week and may we have a nice big loss next week :drinker:

    My first weigh in:
    Weight: 132
    Size: 8
    Goal wt: 115
    Goal size: between a 3-5

    Reason that is sooo low is because I am short, and extra wt is dangerous for me!!!!!!
