As a new member I would love to join in! Here are my goals for May:
1. Drink fresh veggie juice every day. No slip ups! Stay OP for whole month!
2. Workout 5 days a week. (3 walking + 2 strength training)
3. Drink lots of water each day (4 tumblers or 2 stainless steal water bottles)
4. Research low sodium plant strong meals/recipes and make weekly menus for the following month.
5. Weigh 235 by end of May.
6. Make sure to plan ahead to have all the produce/veggies I need and also to be able to get my workouts complete.

Summer here in the South is brutal for heavy people! It's just so humid. Every pound I lose will make the summer more tolerable. Yeah! I am so excited to have this forum to turn to for support!

For May:
900 min exercise
Eat right
Drink 72oz water minimum

Alright! Since I'm actually tracking things in may after my 'reset' phase I have lots of goals! Here they are:

1. ON PLAN - 28/31 days. I leave myself room for 3 days of not tracking because of graduation, our (first!) anniversary, and a celebratory event happening this month. (Progress: 6/28)

2. Track and plot my weight daily on http://www.fourmilab.ch/hackdiet/online/hdo.html. (Progress: 3/31)

3. Get to the gym 4x-5x per week (total: 18 gym trips) (Progress: 2/18)

4. I will burn at least 11,000 calories in the gym this month! (Progress: See Ticker!)

5. I will check in most days! (Progress: 0/27)

6. I need to get better with my water, I've started slacking, back to 80oz per day, or more. (Progress: 6/31)

7. Do measurements (tape measure, body fat, blood pressure) every Monday for progress!

Welcome, clownfish, crazygurl, summerlove!

* refocus attitude toward food. This past month got me thinking...
* stop slacking on exercise
* check-in daily

Thanks ladies!
so far I have completed my workout and eaten a healthy breakfast. Lunch will be easy enough but dinner has been a struggle as I crave all kinds of doughy goodness!! I know I can fight the cravings!
In a week we are going all organic with everything...we are giving up a large portion of our eating out budget to put the money towards more nutritious foods! I'm hoping that meats and dairy products free from hormones and antibiotics will aid in my thyroid function.

Today is the first day of the month, let's make it count!!

Good morning ladies,

tavvy - Great job on your successful day so far. I'm with you on cutting down on my eating out. I'm also trying to prepare more of my meals. Yes we are going to have a good month. Stay strong today.

Penguin - I hope you are able to get back into your zone too. You've always motivated me with your working out so regularly. Hope today goes well for you.

Well my total loss for April was 8.4 I'm excited to see what I can do in May.
