I'm going in November too, when will you be there?Hey all! Hope you dont mind if I join this.
Im 36 and I've gained a lot of weight over the years especially with the birth of my 2nd son in July...I packed on an additional 20lbs that I just can not lose. I swear I still look several months pregnant. My mission is to get fit and feel fabulous. I want to be an active mom and be able to get out and really play with my kiddos without feeling so winded or my back hurting from lugging around all this extra weight. I'm tired of hiding from pictures, feeling uncomfortable in clothes, having no energy..etc.
We have a trip planned for November and I want to look good and feel even better. Im hoping to at least lose 40lbs but 50 would be better.
So... I joined WW online yesterday and plan to incorporate walks with the boys in a jogger as well as exercise. I also have a fitbit so that I can remind myself to get more active. My weigh in day is Friday so we will see what this firat week brings.
I wish us all luck in our goals!!!
Way to go!!! I love the new 10 mark, I always make a rule with myself not to go back up... I can stay a few days there, but don't go back up!in the 180's today... 17 down 33 to go
I'd like to join!
I started on January 3rd and I've lost 15 lbs so far.
I would like to lose 105 lbs overall...but am hoping for 50 by the end of the summer (Paris trip) and 75 lbs by the end of the year. Of course, I'll be thrilled with whatever I lose because I plan to keep it off this time.
I'm following the regular points plan from weight watchers from a few years back. I also periodically do short low carb stretches with the hubs. Sometimes I get tired of cooking him separate meals...
My big goal is to run the 5K race in Disney as a family in January 2017. I'm too heavy at present to run without damaging my knees, so I am currently walking regularly and once I've lost about 50 lbs, I'll start jogging.
In January I began with 2 miles, three times a week. Thirteen weeks later, I now do three miles, five times a week. Saturdays are optional workouts but I often do 2 miles and most Sundays are rest days.
My diet has been somewhat irregular (which is why I have been stalled at 15 pounds lost for over a month) but the fitness level and flexibility has risen dramatically so far this year.
I am determined to go the distance and having a thread like this will help me stay strong when temptation comes calling.
I am a 40 year old mom of two and I'm a homemaker.
but it worked. Lately, I've learned all new preparing and clean eating. I did the 21 day fix last year and it really helped me to start enjoying foods that are good for me. I still struggle, don't get me wrong, but when I'm doing good and have little sugars my body feels great! I started this thread back with my 2nd trip in mind and can finally report that I got into the wine and dine! This will be my very first 1/2 EVER! I'm soooo not a runner. I actually ran a 10K last year which was my first race ever and I vowed in that not to do the 1/2, but you know I'm turning 40 soon and it's always been a goal of mine. For a few years now I've wanted to try the Disney ones so it will be extremely special, and I got in. After I got back from my trip I did the ultimate reset for detoxing and healthy eating and I'm so excited to be well on the road. Can't wait to rock this year with you all!
I'm going the first weekend.. 4th to 8th. Running my first 1/2 at the wine and dine!We will be there 11/13 thru 11/18! You?
So I fell off the wagon a bit for weightloss but now Im down 4lbs and hope I can keep up the momentum!
Welcome!!!
my photo at my name is going to last years summit and I got to train with him! so much fun!!! I just know you can get 15 by October... you've got a goal!
I was eating pretty healthy and clean about a year ago and the scale would JUST.NOT.BUDGE. And I was running on my treadmill daily. I ended up getting the 21 day fix for those portion containers and I laughed the whole week while I watched my normal foods cut in half! haha Now I eat like that daily, even became a coach. I'm thinking even if you don't have any more time to give for activity, maybe there is a way to up what you're doing without upping the time commitment? Congratulations on staying the same though, that truly is HUGE!!!!
Good Monday morning! I'm so excited to report I've lost 25.1 lbs in 3 months! Yay! It's been so hard. I still have about 50 to go to be where I want to be, but I can do it. This is the 1st time in I ever felt like I can do it. And I'm so close to being under 190...I'm 190.9. I can't wait to kiss the 90s goodbye! Hope everyone else is doing well!
If only it was that easy! Thanks for the encouraging words! We all need those!
What are you doing now for activity? and I know what you mean about portions
We are going in October! I don't think I will loose it all by then but really want a lot off. I would be thrilled to have 50 off by then. If I can have more even better....I didn't put it on over night and I know it's not coming off over night.
