Great job everyone! I love reading everyone elses goals! I had a rough day yesterday as I only ate three times, but had high fat things each time...
I'm going to start my turbo jam routine tomorrow, so hopefully that will help push my weight loss along.
Hi every one!! I had to bump us again...we were on the 2nd page!!lol!! Ya'll ain't givin' up on me are ya?? WellI finally got my jobs done this week,now for the hardext job ever...getting my house clean,tomorrow I'm having a southern living @ home party and I kinda dread it....really bad.....but I'm looking foward to this weekend..we're going to Pigeon Forge,TN to do a little shopping and really to just get away...I can't wait...I love love love that place..especially this time of year...all the lights and decorations for Christmas,it's really beautiful... Anyway I hope everybody is alright,I just wanted to bump us up!!!
Well, I'm still trying to pull this off. I realized this week that I was underestimating my calorie intake. I really wasn't being as careful as I need to be. I have been getting on the treadmill though so hopefully my weigh in tomorrow will reflect at least a little bit of effort. I have recorded every calorie today and I'm trying to stay on the low side.
41 days to go! I already feel the holiday treats calling to me so I have to get a grip and loose a few lbs. If I don't have some self control right now things will get ugly come Christmas, lol...
shelbysmom- How was your party? Did you serve any treats?
Is it okay if I j ump in at this point. I had surgery in July and lost 25 pounds in three weeks because I couldn't stand to eat. Now that was a first for me. lol.
I've gained 15 of i t back and feel so bloated and sluggish. I'm going to start counting calolories tomorrow and try to eat healthier.
I'd like to take the 15 off before Christmas, but I'm shooting for 10. That's doable, if I just will do it.
I'm going for 13 pounds, although it's a bit unrealistic. It's the only way to keep me honest. And if i don't make it, I know I'll be a heck of a lot closer.
OK first of all we were on the 3 page.....2nd of all...TGIF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How is everybody? I didn't weigh this week.....TOM is here with a vengeance plus DH has been out of town and I've been depressed so I figured it best NOT to weigh this week......for the scales safety anyway!!lol
Southern girl...Red Kat and Divine welcome!!!I'm glad ya'll joined in...well as far as goals are concerned...yea I did set one...but I know now that I won't be losing 9 lbs in like 5 weeks,so....this is my plan,like RedKat said...whatever I lose atleast I'll atleast be closer to my goal than farther...I'll still be happy,because right now I'm 15 lbs lighter than I was last Thanksgiving...BIG +++ and 20 lbs lighter than when I even started...and the way I look at it,if it takes me another year...and just 15 more lbs I know I'll be looking back to this year saying "Atleast I'm 15 lbs lighter than I was last Thanksgiving" and I'll be happy because I'll know...KNOW...that I've been trying,maybe not as hard as some of the chickies on here but harder than I ever tried before..... what would make me miserable is to look back and say I'm heavier this year than last year I do not want to do that ya'll...I just don't...So anyway I hope ya'll come back and say hi!!have a great weekend!!
Hi everyone . Well i'm down to 185 now but still kind of losing slowlly so I think I might up my calories a bit and see if that helps . But on a plus note my to tight pants no longer fit right . Their not quite baggy but they tend to slide down which is great !

Hi all~ I thought I'd better check in. I have to be honest and confess that I have not done well lately. I had big plans when this thread started, but, I just can not seem to stay consistant with my food and exercise. I'm definitly not giving up though. I've got a new exercise plan in place now and I really am making an effort to loose SOMETHING before Christmas. I will keep checking in to see how everyone is doing and hopefully, I'll be able to report a loss soon.
fd20-Congrats on the looser pants! That's a NSV and it totally counts!
We still have a full 32 days to go! 4 weeks is still plenty of time for some progress. Hang in there everyone!
Hey All
I've been out of commission for a while: I got sick
On the bright side, though, I'm down to 164.4-- that's just 4.4lbs to go before christmas, and I'm PRETTY sure I can do it... If I can just stick to the plan... lol (though, I feel like that's what I've been doing all along, but.. lol I guess not )
This goal feels like it started FOREVER ago, but now that we're crunching toward thanksgiving-- I'm really glad I decided to start when I did
I have been kicking around the same 2 pounds for 3 weeks now and I want to start the losing game again....I am still in the challenge-this time of year is so hard for me: I love to bake, collect recipes, eta, I have 4 children, I work in a school (there's always goodies in the breakroom), etc...all excuses I know!
hi everyone! im in, i want to get to 205 by christmas, although i would love it if i could get even lower!
my big hurdle is my new job, im out the house at 6.30am, and home at 7.15pm i get on fine with eating but its finding time to do any exercise. im just trying to grab fifteen minutes here and there.
I am NOT giving up but I've definitely not been doing as well as I would like either. I'm working on making one change at a time and the first is the hardest. So, I'm focusing on that and the long term goal. I'm still checking back and reading everyone's progress. Everyone is doing so well!
