Hi everyone! Another latecomer! Started doing WW with some modifications (trying to keep a SB mindset but not as strict as I was when I was on it) last Sunday and plan on running a 5K by May. Sadly I've already run a 4-miler (odd I know) but have fallen so out of shape and out of running that I'll probably start in the middle of C25K to get back on track.

Since I'm at the beginning of my WL and in a Vday challenge for 9 pounds, a reasonable goal by April for me would be 160. I'm already aiming high for the next 3 weeks so I don't want to be too fantastic in my goals for the next couple months.

Latecomer here too! I have joined the Valentine's day challenge and thought this one would be great too!

I am currently at 176 and have been hovering here for a while.. been kinda slacking in the effort deparment. Doing better this week!

Its roughly almost 10 weeks away.. actually closer to 9 and a half. Need to pick a reachable goal. Goals can always be exceeded!

SW: 176
CW: 176
GW: 160

Hello, I'm new here as well. I've a challenge for April 1st. I'm not sure what a realistic goal would be for me. 15lbs? 10 lbs?

todays weight 164lbs - I'm 5'2"

I'm also not quite sure what food plan i want to do. I have an older WW package from my Mom, but honestly I don't like counting. So I'm going to start with just tracking.

Welcome Spoon, S-n-F, and Rawheid!

Nikki ~ Football Sunday wasn't good for my diet either! We had some Jets fans over while we're Colts fans, but it was all good -and really good food with way too much alcohol.

My streak of "crap going on" never seems to end... this morning we woke up to water in our basement... and all the clothes that went down the laundry shoot were soaked along with all sorts of other stuff, so I basically spent all day doing laundry and cleaning and now I'm pooped, so no workout... Hopefully tomorrow...

ShrinkingAmy 02-01-2010 12:39 PM

Well with family in and my dd's b-day, I ate way more junk than I anticipated.. I must be feeling guilty because last night I dreamed that I had gained 50lbs. Now everyone is gone and I can get back on track. Only 2 months till April!!!

I'm finally back on track with my diet... thank goodness! My weight actually has gone up some but TOM is here so that figures. I've created a workout schedule to help get my exercise back on track and I hope that this snow melts some day soon so I can go running! I hope everyone else is doing well!

ShrinkingAmy 02-06-2010 11:09 AM

My legs are burning! I love the Jackie Warner workout dvds! She's hard core but the moves are simple enough that I can actually do them without tripping over my own feet! Today's workout was interesting because I had my dd (2) next to me trying to do squats and kicks and mad because she didn't have enough space on my yoga mat. I think I finally have my act together with working out and eating right! I've started my workout journal which helped me stick to it last time. I'm going to aim for 750 exercise minutes this month. I don't calorie count, because I fall off that wagon within an hour! lol, but I'm just trying to control portions and not eat junk.

How is everyone else doing?

melissa78 02-06-2010 08:40 PM

I need a mini goal, and this sounds like soething I need.

My goal is to get to 155 by April 1.

I have 4 April birthdays in my immediate family so if I make it to this goal, it will be harder on me to undo that work!

My goals after that are to be 140 by the last day of school in mid-June, if I get there, I will spend the summer in a new bikini!

ShrinkingAmy 02-06-2010 10:29 PM

Welcome Melissa! You have great goals set! I know you can do it!

I'm late to joining. But I hope to lose with this challenge!

SW:177.2 (2.06)
2.13- 176.2
2.20- 177
2.27- 176.4
3.06- 175.0
3.13- 177.2
3.20- FREEBIE
3.27- 178
Goal: 170 or lower

I would love to be 163 by April Fools Day. That would be a loss of -2 per week. I'm to be way lower than 170! Let's do this!!! :hug:

Loves2Cook 02-13-2010 12:47 PM

Is it too late to join in? Spring is in the air! Already 75 degrees here. Swimsuit season, right around the corner. I am a real slow loser, so I hope for a pound a week!

2/13 - 147

PeanutsMom704 02-15-2010 12:02 PM

no update for me this week - I'm going to be changing my WI day, though, so I'll be checking on on Saturday.

hope everyone's doing well staying on plan and seeing progress. Can't believe it's halfway through February already!!
