  • Hi Full Steam, Count me in for the May challenge. I'm setting a goal of 10 lbs. I plan on journaling, and exercising every other day. I'm still recovering after leg surgery, but I hope to really start exercising. It's always helped me get my thought focused. Flow

  • Hi ladies to our new month of May! It's so nice to see those of you from last month as well as any newcomers. We are all in this together and this is OUR team, let's kick butt! It's all of you, and all of us together, who make it a team! Supporting one another is our ultimate goal here, whether we have 10 lbs. to lose or much more, we are all on a mission! I count my lucky starts to have found this site and met such nice and supportive people........we truly are lucky to have this place and each other for support : )

    WIshing you all a super day tomorrow and let's not forget to get our ingredients that we need for our very first day of May and get our plans in place. I will not go grocery shopping when hungry tomorrow, lol . I'll have my list in place for the first few days and get just what's on the list! : )
  • Hello Again
    Hi Full Steam,

    I'm glad to see that you posted a new thread for May. I did some business travel last month and that led to my falling off the wagon pretty hard. I think I even got hit by a few of the wagon's wheels as it flew by!

    Buuuuuuttt I am back and my goal for May is to lose ten pounds. I think I may have to weigh again tomorrow morning to get a true track of where I am starting from. I think perhaps I may have gained some of those 6 pounds back

    I hope you have hit your goal of 18 pounds. That is sooooo great. I look forward to working with everyone this month to keep ourselves motivated and working towards all of our goals.

    So, here I go back on Phase One and a promise that I will be true to myself for at least the next month. It helps having this site to come to and see the support of everone else and read what everyone else is going through.

    I don't feel alone in my struggle.

    Game on and may we all win
  • I have a goal for May.....I have my niece's graduation in TX the end of the month and would like to lose as much as I can by then....My goal is to be under 237...I think I'm 248 so thats 11 pounds unless I'm lucky enough to weigh a little less by tomorrow.
  • I am so excited for this months challenge. I can't believe I made goal last month with all of the slip ups and semi-binges I had..
    This month can only get better as I get my eating habits under control and reduce the splurges.
    During the month, it seemed like the weight was coming up soooooo slow but now it's over I can look back and say "Wow...I lost 10 pounds!!" So for any of you that get discouraged by 'insignificant" losses, just remember every day, every week, every month adds up. And it goes by so much faster than you think! Keep your chin up girls! Even if you mess up, it's OK. I must have eaten out 15 times last month, but I still managed to lose. So if I can do it, I KNOW you can because I have the willpower of a flea. Best of luck ladies!!!
  • The will power of a flea Me too! I love to eat out...not sure if I could pull off still losing though. My thought always is you don't come here all the time might as well get something you really like. Why does dieting have to be so hard
  • LMAO Mary!

    I'm in! My WI day is tomorrow (very convenient huh?) so I will post my goal for this month in the morning. It's time to kick everything into high gear!
