Well I'm not sure how to start! I all of a sudden got a cold yesterday. Today is worse. Weighed in at 270.4 today. Since that is my weight on March 1st I guess I go with that.
Hi all...my goal is to lose 8 pounds this month...
So
Start: 194.6
Goal: 186.6
And on a bright note - although I got on the scale this morning and found I somehow gained 2 pounds, today I went to Ben and Jerrys with a colleague (because of course there has to be one across the street from my office and of course I couldn't exercise the willpower NOT to go) but when I got back with my kid size cup of ice cream, I threw it out. Probably the first time in my life a Ben and Jerrys hit the garbage uneaten in my life.
Going in the wrong direction! But I'm drinking lots of water today. I'm training for a 10k and ran 4 miles yesterday - I do tend to eat more on my run days. Hopefully by Friday I will see something.
Hi gardenerjoy! I participated in this Forum a few years ago, and lost a fair amount of weight (went down to about 135). Regrettably, I have faced some serious health issues over the past two years and for a bunch of reasons (some legitimate reasons and some excuses), I have now shot up to 195. I'm hoping to get back to where I was when I was a regular participant on this thread. So, I'm joining in, albeit a day late!
My goal is to lose 10 lbs this month. Although that sounds like a lot, I suspect the first 10 lbs will be the easiest to shift.
