Thanks, Amy! I appreciate the insider info on the Fitbit group! I am going to join it! Good luck on this journey of healthiness, ladies!

Hi 8 weekers! This post is a bit late. I was a bit off course this past week. I didn't lose anything (but didn't gain either!) I was under my calorie target each day, but my exercise was non-existent. I turned over that leaf this weekend and hopefully am back on track. I have faith that I can reach my goal, but have had to…

This week I strayed from my routine a bit, but still kept in check with my exercise and eating goals. I dropped a pound, and I am starting to lose the carb cravings! If I can get rid of my sweet tooth with this plan, I will be one happy girl! Looks like everyone is staying committed to this! Keep up the good work, all!

I think I am at a bit of a plateau. I only lost 0.5 pounds, but I did my six days of exercise (5 cardio, and 3 of strength training). I struggle to drink enough water, but am up to 6 glasses a day. Logged in all my food (and never over my target)...not being a patient person, this is a test for me! Everyone looks like they…

Thanks for the motivation, Chris!:smile:

Happy Friday! I am ending this week on a good note. I lost 1.8 pounds and had to wear a belt with my favorite pants! That must mean I am on my way down to a size 10. Not there yet, but I have been going in the right direction this week! Have a great weekend, folks!

Fridays are good for me. I am working hard at this (so far!):wink:

Two days of success so far! Are we on a roll or what?!?:drinker:

Thanks for sharing this Carolyn. It looks like my kind of food - easy and nutritious! Good luck with your goals!

Count me in!!! This is just what I need to hold myself accountable. My goals for the next 8 weeks: - Drop my weight to 150 (that is 12 pounds that I need to lose) - Feel comfortable in a size 10 pant (no pinched waist!) - Cardio 4x / week. Strength training 4x / week Here we go! Donna

Good luck, Laura! I am new too - and I think this is going to help us out a lot! Best wishes - Donna

I'm new too, so we can reach our goals with each other's help! :happy:

Thanks for the encouragement. You are doing fantastic! What is your secret??

Thanks, Karen! I am really looking forward to getting back into my fun clothes!

Wow!! You are doing great with your goal. What is your secret??

Glad to have such a good support group here!

Awwww...thanks!:smile:

I sound serious for a goofy person! Serious that I want to get in shape, but I plan on living my life with a smile on my face! Thanks for the support!

Thanks! I am going to try really hard this time -- and do it the right way. Take my time and learn a new way of eating that I can actually do! More fruits and veggies, and maybe not as much chocolate! I have a brand new grandbaby -- I want to be a cool, active grandma for her! :smile:
