Hello Everyone!

I was just thinking about next summer and how i want it to be different from all of the summers of my past. The only problem is, I have to get through Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, Valentines day, and my birthday! Not to mention the every day battles, like a friend baking cookies or the mcdonalds on every corner. The bottom line is, I need a support group of people who want to look great by next May. May is 7 months away, that's plenty of time to lose weight and tone up. I want to weigh in once a week and measure once a month. Would anyone like to join me?

    Count me in, too! I am so tired of wearing pants every summer. I want to wear shorts and cute tops. Most of all, I want to spend my summer days playing outside instead of hanging out inside to keep cool in the A/C.

    Let's be a support team!

    Next summer is my biggest motivation- I too tell myself it will be different than any other summer before. My birthday is June 13th, and I know I get to take a new driver's license photo that day...looking forward to that. lol

    My weight stayed the same this week.
    :grumble:
    BUT
    I worked out 4 days so far & I've been doing good in my food choices, so it may take a few more days to show up.
    My goal is 20 pounds down by June. It's doable.
    How about the rest of you?

    I won't be able to do the regular weigh-ins because I don't have a car/ scales, so don't get to weigh myself regularly.

    Tonight I was up 3 pounds- TOM & I haven't had my fluid pills for a couple of days, so HOPEfully, I'll see that 3 pounds and then some gone next week.

    I gotta work out! Well...after V (the tv show). :smile:

    Hey everyone,
    I weighed today and I was 151.6
    My weight has been moving around a lot (up and down) so Im trying to make even better choices and fit in more cardio into my workout.
    Hope everyone is doing great, and staying on track!
