8 WEEK SUMMER MELT DOWN!!!

[jldsallthat]

OK, I am starting today June 1st, back on the WW plan. I starting off with an 8 week goal of staying on program, and more importantly, incorporating excerise into my life. I have become less active with my weight gain. So I would like get a group of buddies interested in posting, and charting their success, and discussing their weakness, to help me get to the end of July (31st!!!)

start weight 215 6/1/04
goal weight (8weeks) 195 7/31/04
goal weight long term 155

graemlins/crazy.gif who is with me!!! week one weigh in be on june 8

I'm with you! For 8 weeks, I'd like lose 15 pounds! My only problem is that I'd have to report it a bit late since I'll be on vacation at the end of July and may not have internet access (although this challenge might keep me on track while on vacation!)

Starting weight: 220.8
Goal: 205.8
Personal goal: 155

I'm in too - it'll be my first goal on WW! I'm going to keep on track by planning my exercise schedule each day on a weekly basis. I'm going to pledge 10 pounds by the end of July. My WI's are on Thursday, So I'll be posting results then.

Can I join you also? I have been having a rough time with WW lately so this may be just what I need. I will pledge to excercise at least 3 days a week, journal everything and lose 15 pounds by the end of July.

We can all do this.

Joanne, You freaked me out when I saw your name. I thought I'd forgotten something I had posted. It's so infrequent that I run into another Joanne, let alone someone who spells it right. :p
I'm already on a couple of other challenges trying to get back to my personal goal, but it never hurts to have more motivation. :) I WI on Saturday so if you don't mind I'll just post my stats then.

Start: 05/29 ~ 155.2
Week 1: 06/05 ~ 152.6 :D
Week 2: 06/12 ~ No WI
Week 3: 06/19 ~ 152.4 :mad:
Week 4: 06/26 ~ 152.2 :ugh:
Week 5: 07/03 ~ 151.0 :D
Week 6: 07/10 ~ No WI
Week 7: 07/17 ~ 151.0 this is getting old :ugh:
Week 8: 07/24 ~ 151.0

6/19 - I was a bit upset at the .2 loss over two weeks, but I have been exercising every day on POP on the food but I can see good changes in my body so I'm really not mad, just frustrated that all my hard work isn't showing on the scale. But I guess it's more important for it to show on my body than on the scale.

7/24-I have increased my exercise which they say can effect the scale temporarily. Let's hope for the WOOOSH next week.

Total for challenge 4.2

Hey,
This looks good for me!!! I just weigh myself on Wednesday mornings. I weighed 135 yesterday. So my goal by the end of 8 weeks is to be at 127. Are we posting our weight every week? Angie

[jldsallthat]

Glad to hear you all are aboard. Sounds like we all have the same goals. Let's post what we are doing for excerise, and any great snacking ideas ( low points)

I am walking everyday 45 minutes to 1 hour.

I weigh in tomorrow , everyone else, post weigh ins on your weigh in dates.

I also maintained last week. I only walked 2 days last week. I will do my best to get the third in this week.

[jldsallthat]

Week one sucess!! down 6 pounds. I walked 4 of the days this week for 30-45 minutes each. I had chinese one day ( small portions!) and ate out last night ( small portions!!!) Love the kellogs KRave bars, try them if you haven't yet. They get me through my "kravings for chocolate!!)

I also drank a ton of water this week, something I always tend to slack on!!. Most importantly is I didn't feel deprived, and felt in control.
