Can I join?

I'm Val. I'm 25 and I have 2 beautiful kiddos (4 and 8 months) and I'm going home to visit my family for Thanksgiving! EEEK that's motivation for ya. I'm way heavier than I want to be.

My goal is 20 lbs by then!

Thanks Christian! Wow, I think there's nothing more motivating than being told that i CAN do it. I'm ready, and I'm gonna sneak a before picture so I can watch this 'santa' belly disappear!

Hey Christian

I'm just a calorie counter. I think that everybody is going to do *so* awesome. I have a little extra motivation. I get fitted for a dress in my sister's wedding at the end of October/Early November. And I want to have lost at LEAST ten pounds and some inches ;D I'm going to try to work out four days a week and I'm sure that I can do it!

Hi Everyone! I just want you to know I'm still committed to this challenge. My computer caught a nasty virus and we are still trying to get her fixed. I just wanted to hop on ( at my brother's) and let you know I am on plan, got my eating under control and have been exercising. I really hope we get our 'puter fixed soon I think I'm going through withdrawal. Hopefully, it will get worked out and I can become a more active member in this challenge. Best of luck to all of you!

I've started to commit to at least 15 mins of heart rate elevating exercise per day. I've cut out soda and chips are next. I drank 110oz of water today. I could have floated away. high point of my day: a coworker told me that b/c of my 9lb so far weight loss, my boobs were loking perkier! yeah! I'll check back in tomorrow. Thanks for the support ladies!

Hi everyone. Today was also good for me!
I ate about 1200 calories and did 30 minutes on the elliptical (:
I cant wait to see my hard work showing on the scale.

jene: I hope your computer is fixed soon. I'd go nutty without mine.

grinnyface- It sounds like you are motivated and doing great. When I first got my elliptical I could only syat on it for 5 minutes, lol.
YAY for perkier boobies!!!

Good morning ladies

Val! Glad to have you here as well, I know what you mean about family and Thanksgiving, I am sure you can do it, but it may be a little hard to hit the full 20 by then, but that being said..I am sure you will prove it can be done

grinny- WOW girl, you Are motivated!!! You go! Your making me want to kick it up a notch myself!

Shy- You have been doing just wonderful! I wish I could say the same, I went to a Cardinals game yesterday and totally blew off my diet, I am going to restart it though and redo phase one so I should be ok I hope.

lene- Glad to have you back! I wondered where you went I am sure you will get your computer back up and running soon, I know it is hard to be without it

As of this morning I am down to 140!
Its only 2lbs since I started but that weekend at the beach really pushed me back. Only 10 more lbs to lose before thanksgiving!

Christian: We all have to have a free day every now and then. They probably dont even serve anything healthy at a Cardinals game. You are back on track and still motivated, thats what counts!

I'll be back later to post what I did and ate for the day.

I need this challenge. I'm fairly new to 3FC. My name is Barbara and I'm 34 years old. I've been overweight most of my life. I'm a single mom to a 3 year old girl. I lost 30 pounds in 2007, but the 10 pounds found it way back and now I'm ready to lose this weight. I'm counting carbs.
By Thanksgiving I want to be down 15 pounds. That will bring me to 199. I will be soooooo happy to be under 200. I can't remember when I was 199 or less.

Good luck to everyone!

Count me in on this challenge. I've only just started my weight lose journey last Sunday, so I have a week under my belt, so to speak. I didn't weight myself today, will do tomorrow. My goal as of now is 20lbs by Thanksgiving.

As of Sunday I'm down three pounds from my original 208, weighing in at an even 205 this morning. Not too shabby. Twelve more pounds to go!
