Hi there ... I just joined WW today :) I am using the flex plan and so far it feels good. I've tried a lot of things before but, strangely, not this! May I join you for your challenge? My goal for July is 6 lbs.

Welcome!

WTG Andrea!

I'm 25 (26 in Nov), live in NC (land of heat and humidity) and work full-time from 11:30 am to 8:00 pm. It's a strange schedule that I'm still trying to get used to, eating-wise.

I'm so excited about this, I think it will really help to have each other's support this month!

thanks peach:)

thats a tough sched!!!

yes i agree the support is importnt!

welcome euse!! my goal is 6 as well.

I'd like to join in. My goal is to lose at least 6 pounds in July. I was doing so good and had lost 36.4 pounds reaching 187.6. I totally lost it in April and gained back 21.6 pounds! I lost 4.8 at my last W/I so now I'm 19.6 up and working to get that number down. It is such a challenge to stay focused and on track but I am giving it my all. I plan on having a successful July and I wish everone else much success.

hey

Welcome Rusty !!!!

Hello Erika.

Hello Also To Andrea , Crimsonclover ,emmagabysmum , Peach And Klawster And If I Missed Anyone I Did Not Mean Too But Hello To All!!!!

hi deb!

yes we can do it!

welcome rusty you must lose fast if youre aiming for 10!

Alaska is ok. Just really expensive to live here. Our price for milk is about 3-4 bucks a gallon and rent is high as well. For a studio apartment, it can be anywhere from 300 to over a grand a month!

mama angel, im in ny and its no cheaper

July Challenge
 

My goal is to join weight watchers ;)

awesome jobs girls
 

great job to peachie and Andrea...i must say i gorged out this weekend with family down and all...so hard to stay on track. I am not expecting great news tomorrow afternoon. But nevertheless...i will keep plugging along...so happy for everyone's great news.

:):dizzy:

Man, did I blow it today :o

I splurged on dinner which wasn't too bad, but then we had drinks :cry: The sangria tasted so good, I may have lost count...I think I've used all my flex points for the week and I have until Monday to go!

I'm getting back on track tomorrow so I'm not going to stress or feel guilty (a real turn-around from the old me) Hope everyone is doing better than me :lol: (can't be too hard!)

hi guys!
happy 4th!!

welcome mattiesmom:)

hey guys sometimes we have to live ya know? ill admit i was in a bind last weekend as well but i made the best choice i could.

ladies hi!!! never done a "goal" challenge before.....so I say that my goal for July is 4 pounds! seems so little, but I know it'll be a great challenge for me as I've been the same weight for 2+ years!!!
ROCK IT, LADIES!!!!!

Hi everyone!

Just finished my second run/walk session for the week. Yay! It will take me a while to figure out this flex points thing. So far I haven't used any of them ... but I have been a little bit hungry at times ... I guess I just have to give myself time to make the adjustment.

princess_peach - how are you doing today? Back on track? Good for you for keeping a positive attitude!!

Hi TurboLeda - sounds like your goal is a good one. I see that you haven't got a massive amount of weight to lose ... so sometimes it just takes a bit longer right??? Go for it!!

Happy 4th all you Americans :)

cheers
Erika

Hi Erika, thanks for the encouragement!

Yep, I went to the gym this morning--72 minutes of cardio :dizzy: and I've been eating healthy all day so I'm feeling really good. So much better than the usual guilt I feel. Attitude changes are just as important as physical/health changes and I think that's my biggest obstacle.

Have a good day all!

:cheer: Yay Princess Peach - Well done!! You said it ... I would even say attitude changes are even more important because they cause us to make the health changes we need. And you have the 'tude :)

cheers
Erika

I hope I can join in! I started doing weight watchers at home (had the information from joining before) - this is day 2 of week 2! Last weeks weigh in was 163.6 - so thats my starting!

hi guys

I'm up for a challenge, too!
 

This HAS to be the month I drop five pounds! I'm a lifetime member who has been about a pound above goal weight since the beginning of this year. I am having trouble staying on-plan on weekends and on holidays.

Hey everyone! :)

:welcome3: to Susan!

I've found that when I have trouble on weekends, I just starting writing. I mean, I'll write what I want to eat and how good it will taste and everything and then I move on to other stuff, and the next thing I know my craving or "bad" moment has passed. Doesn't always work, but it's helped me a few times ;)
