Labor Day Challenge 2012

Labor Day is September 3rd so we have 8 weeks and 4 days in this challenge. How much do you want to lose?

I currently weigh 190.4 and I would like to weigh 175 by Labor Day. I hope this is doable in 8 weeks. My weight loss has slowed downed a lot since my work outs were ramped up.

Here are my goals:

1. Make it to the 170's

2. Lose 15.4 lbs

3. Log food every day into MFP

4. Exercise 4-5 a week

5. Make it to week 10 on Couch to 5 K

Please join me!!!

22# to goal..whew! I don't know if I can make this challenge or not. I have been doing WAAY too many carbs the last couple of days. That has got to go! I have upped my Protein greatly though. At least that is a step in the right direction.

You're only 12 lbs to goal, not 22. You got this!

Last week, I was 318.6. Yesterday, I weighed in at 315.6. That's 3 lbs this week! 12.6 more to go!

I'll be out of town from Thursday through Sunday on a trip with my students. That usually means bad eating for me. I've gotta stay strong!

Me! Me!!

I would like to be at 129 (lose 5 lbs) and be consistently working out 4x a week.

I reached my goal of 129 on 7/24 and have worked out at least 4x a week for 2 weeks now. I am revising my goal weight (for the challenge) to be 123.8 which is at this point my final goal.

Congratulations!! That is awesome! I bet you will make your final goal weight by your 1 year surgiversary! You should be quite proud!!

I keep bouncing up and down 2 or 3# right now, but should be at my final goal weight soon too!!

Again way to go!
