Goals and Accomplishments!

Hey ladies! Since there seem to be quite a few of us who are trying SO HARD to 'Slim Down', I figured that this thread might provide a bit of encouragement and support if we do it together!

Introduce yourself by posting your weight loss goals. Update as you lose... or gain (it happens), and feel free to share tips and things you learn along the way!

Best of luck ladies! We can do it

I'll start with a couple short term goals!

By the end of the month: I'd like to lose 10 lbs!

By the end of December: I'd like to be down by a total of 25 lbs!

Wish me luck

Re: Goals and Accomplishments!

I'll join in as well.

By the end of the month I'd like to be down 10lbs, but realistically, I think 8lbs.

Going forward, I'd like to lose 8lbs a month.

Welcome girls!

Thanks for starting this thread.

Re: Goals and Accomplishments!

Oooh..I want to play!!!

By December I want to lose about 5 to 10 lbs. From then until December, I want to maintain the weight and be toned. That also means, I need to stick to my gym work out plans as well.

Re: Goals and Accomplishments!

Hi Ladies..

I'm so glad this thread was started. I'm actually starting my new WW meetings tonight (the at work program was canceled). I've been doing it (not very strictly) for 2.5 years now and I'm down 55 pounds, with lots more to go.

My current goal is to get back on program and lose 20 lbs by the end of the year.

Good luck everyone!

Re: Goals and Accomplishments!

I have been on WW for 2 years. I am down a total of 30 pounds. I'd like to lose 10 more pounds before I start my fittings. And of course, tone my body.

Re: Goals and Accomplishments!

Hey Girls! I'm so glad you all like the thread idea! Congrats to those of you who've already dropped some weight! Good job!

Oh... and when you post your accomplishments, be sure to either quote your 'goal post' or rewrite what your goal was so that we can see your progress without having to search for the original post.

Tip: Try Dasani if you haven't yet! I used to HATE drinking water! So flavorless lol! ...until I discovered Dasani! It really tastes different and has helped me to increase my H2O intake

Re: Goals and Accomplishments!

Just lost 16.2 pounds (yes I'm holding on to that .2!), I went in with no goal in mind except to feel better about myself. The 16 pounds took me 5 months of ups and downs, but I couldn't be happier. Here's a great tip that worked wonders for me : instead of starting your points at breakfast and ending at dinner, I start with dinner and end at lunch the next day. That way if I overdo it at dinner I know I need to have a light breakfast and light lunch the next day.

I would like to lose 5lbs by the end of this month. I start going to the gym and then I just stop again. I made a goal this week to go to the gym 3 day (start off slow)....So far I have not gone @ all, now I have to go tonight (9pm), tomorrow & Saturday to meet my goal......I really need to tone my belly and my legs. I have a wedding to attend on the 29th and hope to be fit by then... Wish me luck.
