I'd like to join.

My goals are to exercise regularly, eat around 1500 cals per day, drink 8 glasses of water per day, and not weigh myself until September 7th.

July 20: 152

Damn, I knew I wasn't going to lose anything. Not only was it my 21st this past Tuesday, but Sat was a friends birthday and I got smashed. But at least I didnt pack on too many pounds, right? Alright, new week, have to start calorie counting again.

July 20: 178 :(

Guess I'm paying for all that fun I had this weekend. *sigh* Well, I'm not going to let it bring me down...all I can do is start all over and stick with it.

Two of my good friends are coming to visit this week (one friend) and into next week (the other friend). Eating might not be the absolute best, but we are going to be doing a lot of shopping...aka a lot of walking ;) Plus, next week, my friend and I are going to NYC for a couple days to celebrate our birthdays a bit late. So, there will be large amounts of walking then! So, some challenges coming up....but I am so excited for my friends to come visit, that I'll take them ;) LOL

July 20: 194

I'm still working off damage done at my friend's bachelorette party last weekend when I shot up like 5 pounds from alcohol, so it was nice to see the 194 on the scale...getting me closer to being out of the 190s!

Stella Way to think ahead! Bring veggies, carrots are always good - they won't get icky either like some other veggies. Where are you going out to eat?

loveLauren Happy21st! Hope you celebrated well :) I'm in the same boat as you, drank to much this weekend, hoping to be back on track this week. So far so good.... those stupid weekends!

chele Have fun with your friends :) Just be sensible about what you decide to eat! Easeir said then done....

Yeah, I have peppers, cucumbers and tomatoes, they should be fine in little baggies. I may even try to sneak a sandwich in with me and just eat at the cafeteria with the other guy going, although I do know what they have there and there are some good choices (yay Hopkins!).

I'm not sure where we're eating, but that'll be okay, I'll just halve whatever I eat, or something like that. Thank goodness tomorrow is a "high point" day.

i wanna join in on the labor day challenge...right now i am at 135, but i would love to be in the 120s by labor day. my goal is to be below 130, even if that's 129.5.

woo!

Okay. I lied. I want to weigh myself. Because...seeing 200 again really put my butt into prospective. I don't want to be 200 on my wedding day. THAT IS FOR SURE.

SW: 201.4
GW: 187-190 (leeway for water weight from binging)

i'll join this challenge. I'd like to lose 10 lbs. So my goal is 225. :) Good luck!

Ended up making a big fancy dinner for the boyfriend... bad day yesterday. I'm supposed to go out for drinks with a friend saturday night, so I'm a bit nervous about going over board.... eek.

ooo can i jump in!! my goal weight is 130.

july 22-136

Today I weighed in at 150. the first twenty pounds gone! (since Jan. 2009)

i'm trying to stay motivated to exercise but its so haaard! I don't want to do anything before i leave for work, then stand for eight hours. and i'm so tired and cranky when i get home. its a never ending cycle....

I lost 2 pounds! Which is definitely a lot better than I imagined. Earlier this last week (after my weigh in) I went out to eat a few times with a friend. Afterwards I felt sick and I told him that we can't keep doing this. The week before I didn't hardly eat out at all. And when I brought on so much unhealthy food at once that it made me feel pretty weak and sick. Then he said he was sorry. Hopefully it can be a different week this week. But I'm at least glad I went down. Good luck everybody :)

Starting Weight: 297
Current Weight: 295 (-2 pounds lost, 8 to go)
Goal Weight: 285

homie Congratulations! I hate that sick feeling I get when I don't eat healthy also... agh.

I weighed in today at 126.

I was at 131 last week. SOOOO that's weird. It was TOM last week though, and I worked hard not to over eat and was really good about not drinking a lot when I went out! So hopefully this will last :)!!!
