I am happy June is here!

By the end of the month I will be jogging on a regular basis.

I would like to be down 10 lbs.

Hi, all. I'm new to the cal counting part of 3FC, was previously at WW. Fell off the fitness/eating right wagon a few months ago, after some issues with my knees. I'm back, and rarin' to go, and making my June goal a *hopefully* easy 5 lbs.. to incorporate lots of seasonal veggies and fruit back into my diet, after a very blah winter.. and to continue exercising 5-6 days/week. :)

168- This morning on the scale. I am thrilled. And fitbit is replacing my tracker so maybe when it gets here I can finally get me moving more. I don't know what my hang up is about exercise.

ETA I am changing my ticker down again!:carrot:

Hello! An oldie here, but restarted on May 22nd...so far I have been 7 lbs down!! Hope you don't mind me joining the challenge...this is exactly what I need! I would like to be 10 lbs lighter by the end of June!

stimkovs 06-03-2012 04:56 PM

i'm over 1700 today, but i think that i am going to change my goal a little bit.

i would like to TRACK no matter what happens. binge, no binge. even if i eat out, i would like to track and "guestimate" every bite lick of taste.

i would also like to find my loosing/not binging sweet spot!

envelope 06-03-2012 05:54 PM

Stimkovs - my sweet spot in the past has been anywhere between 1500-1800 cals a day. Now I just need to learn to stay within that range even while life is stressful or I am super busy...

stimkovs 06-03-2012 06:02 PM

hey envelope, we're the same height! do you kind of know what your BMR is at?

mine is apparently close to 2000 (like 1940's) or so since i am very active, but i am not sure whether i should eat that high/ afraid to try it - although today will be a higher day as i'm still STARVING for some reason.

toobig 06-04-2012 06:58 AM

stimkovs- Glad to "see" you around!

Hope everyone has a great day

June, you better watch out!
 
Gotta lose 10 lbs by the end of June so that I'll have July and August to enjoy the results :D At this point, I've been on and off the website for a few years, but last year (finally!) my weight started stabilizing around high 130's. My ultimate dream goal is to get down to high 120's. That would be more than enough... So in June, I am embarking on a tough weight loss and exercise journey to do exactly that! :carrot: No binging, regular exercise, and a healthy attitude! ;) Good luck, everyone!

Hi all. I am so happy to see everyone joining the challenge! We are gonna kick butt in June!

Just a quick check-in....I've been on plan for 4 days now and managing to get in my cardio. :ebike: I am moving my ticker this morning to reflect the 2 pounds I gained during the last challenge, so I have a solid 10 pounds to work on in June. There's a chance more water weight will fall off but I need to just own that gain and move on. :kickcan: This summer is just ramping up and I want to feel good and look good when I go on vacation! :beach:

EatMoreCelery 06-04-2012 09:44 AM

Weighed in at 212 this morning so 9 pounds to go!! :cool:

Love seeing so many ready to, as 4star put it, kick butt in June! :exercise: :D

I saw a motivational poster this morning that spoke to me... a simple one we can all relate to:
"If you're tired of starting over, stop giving up!"

Bravo to those who have come back to handle a little regain before it got out of hand and meant starting over! :)

ElizabethG 06-04-2012 02:11 PM

I would like to join. I'm back again. I yo-yoed out of here awhile ago.

Tried to come back but with fertility treatments it was so stressful I didnt stick with it and now I'm up alot of weight! I had several IUIs and one IVF. My IVF was successful in that I got pregnant but it was ectopic so I'm in the midst of 'losing' it. :( I am hoping my wieght is abnormally high because of that. So my goal will be to lose 10 lbs this month putting me at 215. I haven't weighed myself in a week though so it may be higher or lower than 225.

envelope 06-04-2012 06:40 PM

Hi everyone! Hope you all are having a great day.

Stimkovs - I am not sure what my BMR is. Using the calculator at free dieting it is estimated that my BMR is 1610.

Bridgettedavis 06-04-2012 09:27 PM

Count me in!!! My goal for 4th of July is to weigh 175 (so 11ish lbs by then) So I'm going to say for the month of June it'll be to weigh 176 ;) So 10lbs for the month of June!!

Weigh in this AM- 186.4
Should have a good day tomorrow, I'm trying to zigzag calories this week and today was a small day!
