Hello Everyone!

I was just thinking about next summer and how i want it to be different from all of the summers of my past. The only problem is, I have to get through Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, Valentines day, and my birthday! Not to mention the every day battles, like a friend baking cookies or the mcdonalds on every corner. The bottom line is, I need a support group of people who want to look great by next May. May is 7 months away, that's plenty of time to lose weight and tone up. I want to weigh in once a week and measure once a month. Would anyone like to join me?

Count me in, too! I am so tired of wearing pants every summer. I want to wear shorts and cute tops. Most of all, I want to spend my summer days playing outside instead of hanging out inside to keep cool in the A/C.

Let's be a support team!

Next summer is my biggest motivation- I too tell myself it will be different than any other summer before. My birthday is June 13th, and I know I get to take a new driver's license photo that day...looking forward to that. lol


When you look back in a year's time, will you be saying, "I'm so glad I stuck it out!" or "Why did I waste another year?"

I totally feel you! I can't wait to put on a cute little sundress and go out and have some fun.

Great! what day shall we make weigh in day? How does fridays sound? Maybe if we weigh on fridays, that will keep us from overeating on the weekends! I want to lose 30 pounds by May!

My weight stayed the same this week.
grumble
BUT
I worked out 4 days so far & I've been doing good in my food choices, so it may take a few more days to show up.
My goal is 20 pounds down by June. It's doable.
How about the rest of you?

I won't be able to do the regular weigh-ins because I don't have a car/ scales, so don't get to weigh myself regularly.

Tonight I was up 3 pounds- TOM & I haven't had my fluid pills for a couple of days, so HOPEfully, I'll see that 3 pounds and then some gone next week.

I gotta work out! Well...after V (the tv show). smile
