Post your goal(s).

Me:
Workout minimum of 5 days a week

I want to start 2011 on an up note instead of the I gained 10lbs misery it usually starts with.

Re: 7 Week Challenge Starts Now!

I am ready to go!

Goal: Lose 10 lbs (would like to say 15 but might not be realistic)

Exercise: Run 3-4 days a week, depending on upcoming winter weather. Cross train 1-2 days per week to total working out 5 days a week.

Diet: More conscientious eating. No more eating candy without thought. Planning out meals and precooking.

Lose remaining baby weight - 9 lbs
Continue running 3-4 times per week... will make it a stretch goal to work out 4-5 times per week.

Great goals everyone! Let's check in often and keep each other motivated if we're struggling. We can do it. We'll feel so much better if we do.

You sound VERY motivated!! You should be proud of yourself- you're going to do great (and I'm sure keep it up even through the new year)! Chat Icon

Agreed! I need the support because I fall off the wagon easily. I will do the same for others.

Ugggh I need to get these leftovers out of this house TODAY!!! Especially the desserts. I knew I should have sent more home with people!!
I did start the day with a healthy, filling breakfast so I'm not hungry and picking at crap all day.

Re: 7 Week Challenge Starts Now!

OK here it goes

I want to lose at least 10 pounds
I will eat healthier and drink more water. There are times at work that I go an entire day without drinking - not healthy at all.

I plan to exercise between 4 - 5 days a week.

My main problem is that I pick at my kids food. I plan to stop that.

OMG me too!! Half the time I don't even realize it until after I've done it.
Keeping a food journal helps so I'm adding that to my goal. To journal every bite.

Re: 7 Week Challenge Starts Now!

Workout at least 2 hours per week of cardio.
I need to give myself flexibility because of a crazy work period coming up.

At least 2 additional days per week of 30 day Shred.

Resist treats at work.

Stop picking at food while I cook.

Take advantage of week off of work between christmas and new years and exercise every day that I am home (27th - 2nd)

I hope to lose 5 pounds by the end of the year, or at the very least staying where I am, as I usually gain 5+.

So I'm 99% sure that I am going to go and rejoin WW tomorrow to help me along in this challenge. It's been well over a year since I've gone. I'm looking forward to the new program.

Re: 7 Week Challenge Starts Now!

I need to get back on track with WW.I go every week but I haven't been tracking everything, there for I have no been seeing any results lately. Now they made these changes, I definitely will be tracking everything!!! I also have not exercised at all in the past 2 months. I definitely need to get back on that too. I plan to either get up early and exercise before work or do it after I put DS to bed. If I have the time and energy I will exercise 2x/day.

If I can just lose 5-10 lbs before 1/1/10 I will be happy. That will just give me a great start to the new year.
