Hey! I'm up for a challenge! Congrats on your baby! What a wonderful time! My"baby" is leaving for college in less than a month and Mom is feeling fat, old, ugly and soon to be lonely! Gotta snap outta it! I'm really a very happy person, just can't seem get myself motivated! I feel like I'm wearing somebody else over me! It's time to set myself free! Too much to do and too much happiness to enjoy to continue this way! Let me know if you find a group that wants to join us!

that sounds great but my biggest problem is getting discouraged when i dont think im going to make the 10 lb mark at the deadline

how about a
doing it my way 10lb challenge or all about me 10lb challenge, or 1 week at a time 10lb challenge

i thought of that because its so hard for me to stick with a structured plan like 100oz of water,etc
i feel so bad when i dont meet the quota that is expected of me
so i think that every one should share what they do or what works for them
then we can come up with something that we all can keep up with realistically m-sat with sunday as a rest day
weigh in on fridays if everyone can and if we see progress for that week maybe up our water, exercise, etc
what do you guys think

ok, whatever you decide. Just explain to me the rules. I do think setting a weight loss goal and a time frame is a good idea, but being realisting like ten pounds in ten weeks. (1 lb a week is a fairly realistic goal).

Maybe each week we do a different short term goal like 'exercise four days for 30 minutes' or something....(I haven't started exercising yet, just got the ok from the Dr. to start.)

that sounds great so each week we can focus on 1 goal like instead of 480z of water to 64oz i also thought it would be interesting to weigh on fridays and try on something that we couldnt wear before on saturdays
