I think St. Patrick's Day is a great short term goal day. I'm hoping to lose 14 pounds by then.

I'll join too. I'm in the process of training for a half marathon which is three days after St Patrick's day so I'm hoping to be in really good shape by then. My current weight is 137, I'll set a goal of being no more than 125 which is my goal weight. My weight loss not go as planned with all my running and eating more- we shall see. Watch this space! :) Good luck everyone!

Helloooo!!!
 

So I have been wallowing in TOM-ness, but its finally over! But not after I had a super meltdown to my band last night. Being a front woman is very mindcrushing sometimes. Being a front woman who needs to lose weight can be even more stressful.

Our Lady - You are awesome! I love that you found an awful dress that turned out to be a great goal dress. And it looks like you are making some great progress.

Cosmicgal - keep up the work. We are all behind you and we know you can do it! A one pound loss is definitely a loss. And it should be celebrated!

Jomatho - I know exactly how you feel with TOM. Just remember to be as on point as you can. TOM will end, and then you will be so happy with the results!

audri8301, lluvyblu, mdchick and Jessica88, thanks so much for checking in and keeping us all motivated! Great work!

micheleherts, milasmommy87, changergirl and bananapancakes, we are so happy to have you! Feel free to check in any time you want to send us an update!

Ok. So I have got to start checking in more often, because my replies are getting ridiculously long :-)

I had made a response to everyone last night but I guess something got in the way of me hitting reply because it obviously isn't there! So a truncated version is, WELCOME to all the newbies and WAY TO GO for everyone else! :D:D

I'm going to be more of a cheerleader here I guess because I've made a promise to myself that I will not be weighing in until Feb 28th! I recently had a revelation that I have totally been underestimating the amount of calories that I am having each day (full blurb if you're interested). So now I will be tracking my calories to make sure I'm on the right track and focusing on my strength training and other phsical activities.

I'll be guaging my success by how I feel and how my clothes fit until I do an official weigh in on feb 28th to see if it's working as well as I am confident it will! I just want to separate myself from the number on the scale as I feel that the way it has been going I will not be happy with my progress until the scale shows me that I'm allowed to. :p

Altered version of our track system:
Current size: too tight :p
Goal: increased energy and to get back in my smaller jeans!

I like that idea very much Prepping. I don't think I will be posting my weight every day, but I do end up weighing myself everyday because I use my Wii to track it.

I am sure you will be back in the smaller jeans in no time.

Good plan :) My birthday is March 31st and I have a goal of 20 pounds lost.. so, St Pattys day, 15 pounds lighter would be right on track!! here it goes!!

Starting weight- 223
Goal weight- 208

I way in on Thursdays so Ill start keeping track there.

GOOD LUCK LADIES!!!

Down half a pound at WI last night. I know I'm doing everything right so I am going to keep on trucking and add in some activity.
Started Jillian's 30 day shred today. HOLY CRAP is it hard.

Also adding a new goal: only get weighed at WW. No more weighing myself several times a day or being happy if I get a lower number or depressed if I get a higher one. I can't control how fast the weight comes off, I can only control my behaviors.

Today's weight was worth mentioning

Four pounds down!!I might be into the sixties by next week. That would be exciting!

CosmicGal-- That's the hope! Thank you :D I see you've been making some progress, too. Way to go, and I hope you make the sixties by next week.
Musicangel-- *blushes* Why thank you! Funny how those things work, isn't it? I've been pretty happy with my progress so far, and I hope that all of us see that blasted number on the scale go down.
