Sorry, I just saw your post. Yes, I do WW too, the flex plan. Good luck starting, it takes some getting used to counting the points. Also, if you do the journal buddy thread, it helps you be accountable.

I didn't lose but didn't gain either. I'm really motivated now to get back on track because I've been examining what I've been eating the past week or 2 and geez no wonder I"m not losing! I've been getting to the gym a lot more often but if I'm still eating crap it really won't make a difference. I've increased my cardio to 35 minutes and I'm doing a couple of machines each time as well. So today has been really good and I'm planning on keeping it up so that I can report a loss next week.

Ok, I'm in....ohhh I'm excited. My first challenge.

My goals are: *reach 250lb.
*exercise 4 times/wk
*record my daily food choices

BTW: what is onderland????

Didn't do so well this week 0 Only lost .6 of a lb. On the other hand, I was moving all week and didn't eat the healthiest so I guess thats okay.

I am doing okay with food but need to get a little more active. I have been doing some stuff but not as intense as I need to. Along with the desire to lose 20 lbs by end of August, I am also planning to go kayaking for the first time in mid August...soooo, better get working on that upper body!

Dakotamidnight - it is not only .6, it is .6 of a pound that you lost and that is fantastic!!

I am going to weigh in on Monday so I will let you know how it goes!

When your weight goes from the 200's to the 100's, ie, when you are below 200#. ONEderland.

END OF SUMMER CHALLENGE

I know I'm a little late - but I would still like to join!

My goal: 25lbs by Sept. 1st - then I'll be halfway to goal!!!
The plan: Well, I'm working on a waterfront so my goal is to do a relevant swimming/running workout every day (6 days a week) as well as drinking LOTS of water & keeping the "extras" to a minimum (no control over my actual diet as I'm at a camp!)

Good luck everyone!!!!

Memememe! I want to join up! My goal is 210. So, 24 pounds, which I think is a good goal, and something to rrreeeaaaccchhhh for! I usually post in journals (as mimilou), but I'll make a point to come over here now!

So glad to see so many people signing up and having realistic goals! It's never too late to start!!

I'm edging my way down, 18lb to go...

I'm down 3 this week, 21 more to go!!!

I'm down 4 pounds this week. : I'm not sure how that happened as I'm eating and drinking plenty (1500-1600 kcals a day), but I'm taking it anyway. 22 more to go....

Wonderful, Ali!!!!! Congrats!
