Starting Out
Here is the template that we will be using once a week to record our weight. Simple, nothing fancy. As an easy marker, I'll post the new discussion on Sunday's but as long as you're weighing in once a week, you'll be fine! Starting Weight: Goal Weight: Today's Weight: Notes from the week: Examples are struggles you had,…
Goals for this group
I'd just like to say, you do NOT have to set 20 pounds as your goal. Depending on your fitness level and where you're at with your current goal, you can set it lower. The point of this group is not for it to be a competition amongst each other. Maybe with ourselves, but not with each other. This is meant to just be a…
Introduction
First things first, I'd like to introduce myself briefly and say a bit about why I started this group. My name is Chandal and I've been on my weight loss journey since January. I have a goal of losing 100 pounds by the end of this year and so far I've lost 75, so I have a few more than 20 to lose. I have a 5 year old, a…

FINAL weigh in!
First of all, thank you all for participating in this challenge!! Second of all, I'd like to apologize for it getting away from me for awhile there. Everything going on in my home life completely consumed me and it was a real struggle. But you guys kept on going and pushed through on your own basically. THAT is a sign of…
New Group?
I don't know if @ChandalNicole was planning on continuing on and making a new group for the new year? I'm definitely joining if you are, Chandal! This was such an amazing end-of-year group that I can't begin to say the ways it's helped my weight loss experience!! :smiley: I've decided that my goal for 2016 is to lose at…
2016 Goals?
Writing your goals down is a good way to get them started and to stick with them! My goals: - Muscle building! I want to start doing more with weight training and get everything a little tighter! - Shop at the farmer's market more this summer! - Finish school and start my career! What are yours?
Went off the deep end!
This week has been soooo bad. OMG I've got to get back on track before I undo all my hard work. I think I've literally gained 3-4 lbs this week. I've lost all my self discipline and self control. I keep falling back into my old mindset making excuses for each bad decision. It's Christmas- I won't eat this once the kids are…
Water challege
As a "back on the wagon" challenge for myself, I'm going to be doing the water challenge again! This helped me tremendously last time and I've been drinking far too much coffee these past few weeks. So here's how it works! Take your height in inches, that's how many ounces you need to drink in a day. 5'8" = 68 inches so…
This week's weigh in
I was going to post it for Thursday. Give everyone a few extra days to work off Christmas goodies and it'll be the last day of the year! I hope you all had a great Christmas with your family!

Holy smokes, that was an ordeal. I finally have my house back! I worked out two nights ago and boy, I'm still feeling the effects of it!

Rough week! Stress eating!
This is the week that I'm supposed to be deep cleaning my house and taking some time to relax before the holiday. We're hosting Thanksgiving at our house this year for my family and my boyfriends family. I've been SUPER pumped and excited! But on Monday, my brother, sister in law and their dog needed a place to stay. We're…
