I hadn't even noticed we were already signing up for June!
I am going to make it so that I am more accountable for the whole thing this time, so my goal for June is
-To be OP 6 days a week
-Get into the 160's
Weight Loss goals are in this list. Exercise goals are in the sister thread--June Exercise Challenge: http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/showthread.php?t=172728. If anyone sees something that they'd like to have changed or edited in their info, please just let me know! I'll continue to add new people as they join in. Good luck to all! You can do it!

What a cool thread this has been to read! The encouragement has brought many smiles to my face.
I'm very new to 3FC; joined earlier this week and haven't even made enough posts to be able to get my tickers. LOL
This is going to sound silly (it sounds silly to me, anyway) . . . but mini goals absolutely freak me out; especially mini-goals within a specific time frame. What if I don't make the goal? What if, what if, what if . . .
If someone were saying that to me, I'd be able to refute it . . . but I'm not doing such a good job of refuting it when I'm hearing it in my own head.
But. Having said all that, I'm still going to make a mini-goal . . . and that's going to be to loose 5 pounds by the end of June.
Welcome SharMar! I've added you to the list above! I can understand your concern about setting a timed mini-goal, but don't let it worry you. We don't get uptight around here about not making our monthly goals, because let's face it, even if we are stay Perfectly On Program or Perfectly On Plan (POP), sometimes that stubborn weight just takes its time to come off! Some people don't even set weight goals. They might say things like "stay OP" (On Program or On Plan), "drink more water," or "eat more veggies." The important thing is to have a goal to work toward and then to actually work toward it! And equally as important is to support each other along the way! You'll be surprised at what you can accomplish when you have such a wonderful support system of friends encouraging you the whole way and rooting you on!! It makes you want to do your best! To us, any time you stay OP, lose or maintain your weight, and/or do the best you can, we are proud of you!! And if it just so happens that you also make your monthly goal, we get very excited for you!! So don't worry--just give it your best shot! We're glad to have you! Good luck!
Edited to add: ONEderland is to reach 199 lbs, to no longer have a weight that begins with a 2! Woohoo!
Plexi & Sharmar! Yes, Onederland is definitely coveted around here, I know it is by me. I felt just like you did when I joined this site 29 days ago and then I found these ladies! I was so modest with my goals, they even scared me, but WOW, how far I've come. The support, encouragement, friendship and the accountability sure has taken me to new heights. I actually want to work towards my goals, I want to be held accountable, I want to lose this weight and with the support to be found in our two threads...I WILL LOSE THIS WEIGHT!!!!
6's?! Woo hoo! Jacque that's awesome!!! get thee to Goodwill this instant and donate the clothes that you will never wear again!!!
Welcome to all the newbies!!!
I totally forgot to add some other goals to the list. So, Jacqui, if you wouldn't mind, could you please add the following:
Lose inches
Eat more fruits and veggies
Try at least one new recipe a week (I got the Hungry Girl 200 Under 200 cookbook and there's some yummy lookin' stuff in there!!!)

I've added "lose inches" to your goal!
