Mother's Day Challenge
Starting today will be 55 days til Mother's Day:) I didn't see a challenge posted yet and wanted to see if anyone had any goals to or on that day. I will be taking family photos around that time and would love to have some weight loss before then.
Anyone else? Plans/goals? |
I'm in!!! I think I would like to aim for 10lbs gone by then.
SW/CW- 169 GW- 159 Additional goal(s)- Stay on plan. No alcohol of any kind. Exercise for 30 minutes at least 3 times a week. |
Awesome! I think that should be achievable:) Good luck!
|
Ooo, yes, I'm totally in. I have an audition that day and want to be 10 pounds lighter than I am now. That's my goal.
|
I failed on the alcohol part tonight when I went to play darts for a league tonight. 3 woodchuck ciders tonight, 600 cals altogether! I enjoyed myself tonight though but I want to get serious and stop drinking.. at least after I Mother's Day because it definitely messes with my progress.
I need to do 30 minutes on the elliptical tomorrow to lessen the "damage" done. Moondance- Totally doable! You can do it! |

I'm in for 10lbs gone by then too.
SW: 172.5 GW: 162.5 amandie, I think we need treats sometimes to keep the motivation up -- I know that if I completely deprive myself I'll cave within days, but if I allow myself the occasional treat I can usually stick to the plan. Moondance, best of luck with the audition! What are you auditioning for? anewbody, do you have a set goal or are you just aiming to lose as much as possible? |
Crow, I am trying to take off whatever I can by then! Lol so be it being 15 pounds:) Good luck to you!
|
So far, so good! Had a really good day yesterday as a matter of fact. I didn't even have chocolate! :yikes::eek: I also started weight lifting as part of my exercise regime. I've been doing strictly treadmill or elliptical for 2.5 months. I felt it was time to mix things up, tone things up, and boost my metabolism a little. One discovery...boy am I weak! :wl:
We're a small group here (which I like) so good luck to us all! Stay strong and on-plan!:cp::grouphug: Crow, I'm auditioning for the part of Mrs. Lovett in Sweeney Todd. |
Moondance, crossing fingers for you on that part:)
I will be getting back into weight training today as well. Been doing alot of cardio mostly and I will blend in the exercises as well. Is the part like in a play? |
I want to reach my mini-goal by then (225lbs). So count me in!
I'm aiming big to get small. |

Thanks, guys. I need to remember not to be too hard on myself. I did 30 minutes on the elliptical today so I feel a little better now. :)
Welcome, Crow and IanG (love the quote too, Ian!) Good luck with your goals, both of you! Moondance- That sounds awesome. I wish you the best of luck with the audition for the role of Ms. Lovett! I love lifting and it does suck to realize how weak you are like I did, lol. Luckily we can build our strength the more we do it. :D I need to get back to lifting soon! I made some really yummy (dark) chocolate muffins last night for boyfriend and my niece who was spending the night, a regular sized muffin is about 64 calories each by my calculations. I would process the oats into flour before adding the rest of the ingredients to prevent tough muffins. Luckily, I have been practicing good willpower with these things, it also helps that I gave away almost half of them, lol. |
