4th July weight loss! Post your goals

[Deafworm]

Hi all, 

After a couple of these keeping me on track ish since mid jan i thought i would start another one, hoping some of you will join me

SW 244LB

CW 230LB

GW 209LB

My husband is in the military and has been deployed since late Jan, he should be back sometime in June my aim was to hit the 209lb mark before he got back but that's looking less realistic after some busy scary weeks with my 2 year old having a cancer scare but as a mini goal I want to be under 216lb by the start of June, then I will be 2st off since he deployed. I have a school reunion in July and my graduation in October so lots to work towards this year!

How are you all doing? What are your goals?

[PamelaHazelton]

My 11 year anniversary is in June. 🙂 And, yes, I've gained weight since then...

[Deafworm]

Congratulations on 11 years, we hit 12 in August and I have too 🙂

SW is starting weight, CW is current weight, and GW is goal weight.

[1Fitgal]

Goal: down 10 to 15 by July 4th. Lets do this!  And not put it back on on July 4th.  

[Deafworm]

Sorry lalou I didn't know when I first joined either, hope you will join us 😄

And I've come up with another goal, I want to be consistently hitting 70thousand steps a week by July 4th, so not necessarily 10k a day but 70k a week

[lalou3tt3]

That is ok. No pb

[kamellabug]

I would love to join the challenge 🙂

well first weigh in and I am 1lb down! the kids are back to school on Tuesday so there will be way less eating out from there, I am aiming to get up and exercise before breakfast starting tomorrow but I am not a morning person so that could be a bit optimistic!

I've never joined a challenge.  I just bought a new Charge HR after sending my Force back with the recall.  I'm pretty bummed about hitting my highest weight ever because of sitting on my butt working.  I'm a workaholic teacher and working on my Masters so I've spent too much time at my computer this year.  I'm giving myself 1-yr to lose 90-100 lbs and get into the best shape of my life.  (I'm only 5'0 tall). My plan is to do DVDs and Xbox fitness games every morning for 60-90 minutes, and go to the gym in the evenings for weights, classes, yoga etc. for 60-90 minutes.  The hardest part is getting myself to bed early enough so that I can get up at 5:00 am, I tend to channel surf until 12am trying to unwind after my crazy stressful days.  Wish me luck tomorrow morning.  My goal is for July 1 b/c I'm Canadian 😃

SW: 205

CW: 204

July 1 GW: 180 (lose 25-lbs)

GW: 105-115

well done Kaelarenee, Im back on sensible food and will be back on my exercise dvd tonight after bedtime, ive drunk 2 pints of water so far today so its all on track again now!

[Deafworm]

Hi Shortsbysummer, welcome to the challenge. I am in a similar position as I am in the last 3 months of my degree having not had a break since last february so far too much time at the books! Im debating starting my masters next year but need to have made a big hit on my fitness for that to be a good plan. Thats a tall order on the exercise dont forget to give yourself rest days, I was planning on doing first thing exercise but I am rubbish at getting up so will be doing evenings instead, how was this morning for you?

[MRose]

Great work, guys/gals! I'm all up for accountabilibuddies!

SW: 245

CW: 179

GW: 145

So 4th of July GW: 169

The "decade marks" (i.e. going from 180 to 179) are the biggest motivators for me. Even if it's only losing 1-2 lbs to hit it, lets all hit our next decade mark! Thinking "Oh geez I need to lose 50 lb!" can be so defeating when you're in a slump, but thinking "Hey, I only need to lose 3 more pounds before I can be thinking in the 170s rather than the 180s!" can be really motivating when that pizza at the meeting is staring at you.
