Thanks, Hope20! I think I need to pinch myself. It's been about 20 years since I've been this weight or even this close to Onederland.

I've had a bad day bored/ravenous grazing. :/ But I did exercise again, so that's half the battle!

Okay...I'm in!

My goals are going to be easy ones as I'm just starting out. Don't want to get discouraged before I even get started.

They are:

Lose 5 pounds
Walk w/my family at least 3 times a week
Take the stairs UP at least one time per day at work (no stairs at home)

My starting weight is 252...Haven't done measurements in a LONG time, but I'll try to do it tonight.
That's it for me. I think I can do it!

I did 30 minute Deante Dance and 2 miles of the 4 mile super challenge. I had to stop because my muscles are sooo sore from firming that I couldn't give ALL to the rest of WATP.

*is determined to drink more water to help my poor muscles*

Good luck! Thanks for joining in! You can do it! It's okay to have simple goal(s). One healthy goal or three is better than NOTHING. In one month, you'll be one step to a healthier life.

I hope it's ok if I join! My goal is to be under 200lbs by May 31. Current weight, 210lbs.

The more the merrier! ^_________^

And I just posted May goals in the support forum *bangs head on desk*

May Goals
Lose 4 pounds.
go to the gym no matter what! I'm a member of 2 gyms... I better use them!!
Water water water.
(this is a weird one) I will use the rolling stairs to get the boxes to the top of the steel (at work) instead of being lazy and tossing them up there. I may just burn 10 or 20 extra calories. ( X that by about 14 boxes @_@)

Here are my goals...I might post pics later, I don't know


- Stay on micheal thurmond or some sort of diet plan
- Walk 70 miles
- Drink water
- Take vitamins
- Get into the habit of cooking at home

Good luck everyone!

I like this thread--I've been a member of the Habit-of-the-month plan for a while.
OK 2 goals and 2 habits:
Big goal--when I lose 4 more pounds I will NO LONGER BE OBESE. Sorry I could *not* help shouting that out--I'm as excited about this as I was to see onderland.
Another goal--to wean myself from the convenience of frozen meals (preservatives, cost and landfill issues) and cook things I can take for lunch in reusable containers.
Habit--eat 6 servings of fruits/vegs a day
Harder habit--stop nibbling after supper.
Will update as I can.
Love this forum--very supportive.

Hi,
I'dike to join your challenge. Maybe this will help me develop some personal accountability.
MY GOALS for MAY:
Lose 4 pounds
Exercise 3 times a week
Drink 48 oz. water each day
No food after supper
Thanks,
Charon

Okay, I'm in. I've had a really hard time sticking to an exercise schedule lately, and I need to get back to regular cardio. So my goal is at least 30 minutes of cardio at least 3 times a week. (I know it's not a lot for all of you every day exercisers, but right now, it's what I can handle.)

And I just changed my ticker to reflect this, so now it's all about the follow-through, and the accountability.

I have gotten another hour and 15 minutes done on the treadmill.. so I have an hour to go before tomarrow.

Good luck everyone.

Yesterday was not so good for me. My muscle were still extremely sore. So, I opted on doing a barre workout instead and then, I ate pizza for lunch and snacked all the way before dinner. Today I will be eating good at Applebee's and exercising after work hopefully.

My weight today was 213.1. ^______^ 5 pounds gonnnnneeeee!

Which also makes my ticker correct again. YAYYYYYYY
