OK, I need a new challenge! Count me in!!
My goals:

1. WI ONLY on Thursdays!
2. Exercise at least 200 min/week.
3. 2 strength training sessions/week.
4. Eat OP, of course! Specifically, at least 5 servings of fruits/veggies a day.

I'm really trying to take the focus off the scale, so no poundage goals for me, though I would be thrilled to shed 5 lbs this month!
I'm looking forward to posting with you guys!!

I like the idea of losing 10lbs a month. I always start over each month as if it was new and try to block out the previous and the next months.(otherwise it's a little overwhelming) Of course I seem to always fall a little short(3 lbs shy in April) But I'm re-committed and I have a family function in June that I'd like to 'show-off' my success. Keep your fingers crossed for me!!!

I bought myself a pack of little stickers -- glittery hearts and stars. I get a heart on my calendar if I work out, a star for getting my 5 of fruits and veggies. Yesterday I got a heart and a star!
So far, so good.

But hey, two weeks till I move into my place. You can't beat that!

Hey...I noticed this thread on the main page and thought it was a great idea! I am sort of new to the forum but I would like to join this challenge if it's alright with you guys. I'm not really big on group challenges but honestly I need the accountability and support right now.

My goals for May:
1.) Lose 10 lbs. ~ this will put me at 175 lbs. (my ticker is not right; gotta fix that!)
2.) Exercise minimum of 5 days/week for at least 30 min. daily
3.) Drink 80 oz. of water daily
4.) Keep calories around 1500 per day on average

I want so badly to be back in the 170's...let's hope I can make it happen! I don't have any more excuses or any more reasons to put this off!

Thank you for the colorful welcome JasonsLea!

Day 1 went well...I drank between 70-80 oz. of water, my calories were between 1500-1600 (and I didn't eat any dessert even tho there was ice cream in the house), I had a lot of veggies for dinner and I did not binge (even tho that wasn't one of my goals, I saw mamatoni had it as one of hers and I wanted to join her).

BUT...

I didn't exercise....altho I did do some spring cleaning (mainly going thru the clothes in my dresser, chest of drawers and walk-in closet to give away stuff that was too big/old/small+didn't want) and some walking around while shopping. Don't think that counts tho! I have to finish my spring cleaning today! Hopefully I'll be replacing some of those clothes with smaller, more sophisticated clothing as the months go by. I have some Guess jeans that are too small for me at the moment that I would love to get back into soon!

So...this super long post was just to report that I need to step up my exercise today...I'm planning on a 30-45 min. power walk this evening after dinner. It's a little too sunny and hot out during the day to be outside here in Phoenix.

How about everybody else? I'd like to hear how you all are doing!
