I see han-grrl and kerrybelle (me, too) posted additional goals plus exercise goals. If anyone wants to post additional goals, I'll incorporate them into the exercise log ... I know it helps me to be accountable! Bambu101 mentioned personal measurements ... if you post total inches lost weekly/monthly, I'll include them too.
This chart is only to compliment the weightloss challenge ... and only if you post additional items.
Starting weight: 140
8 week goal weight: 132
Exercise goal: 100 - 150 road miles/week; 12 -16 speed walking miles/week
Food goal: More whole foods, less processed foods
Overall goal: Balance out work and fun so I can enjoy my summer
It's great to do this with so much support from around the world!
UGH - popped back up to 230 today.
8 Week goal = 220.

ok I am at 178 and in 8weeks would love to be at 168
I bike 60 to 80 miles aweek and I do Pilates 3 times aweek. I am going to add nightly push ups and sits to this mix as well.
Starting weight this morning: 141.9
8-week goal: 136
Long-term goal: reach and maintain at 131
Pushing off that "last 10 lbs"!
Time to jump on the bandwagon! I am starting at 130, and my goal is to be at 125 in 8 weeks. Looking forward to it :D
Current weight: 147.5
Goal: 142 lbs....ah heck ,why not make it a nice 140 lbs.
I plan on eating smaller portions, healthier foods and doing lots of running and cycling!
I'm checking in at 177 lbs. I'd like to lose 7 lbs to put me at an even 170 by the end of the challenge.
I've lost about 10 lbs over the past 6 weeks by logging my food and exercise on sparkpeople. I was also training for a century and decided to forego the weightloss and focus on eating right for training (eating about 2500 calories a day) but I still managed to lose weight. I'll probabaly be riding less over the next 8 weeks, but I hope to incorporate more weight training and core work into my workouts.
I'm onboard.
Starting weight: 179.5
8 week goal: 165
Ultimate goal: 120

I sort of made a mistake on my last post. My weight is 149 and my goal is 140 not 148. Sorry. Long week at work.
Okay, I'm in:
141 this morning.
8-wk goal: 132
Exercise goals:
30 miles a week cycling
5 miles a week blading
3 days of weights/swimming (gym workout) a wk
Lay off the takeout! (need to pay for gas!)
The main goal is to lose the weight honestly - meaning no fasting to get the lbs down, but working out and building muscle and realizing the 'muscle weight gain' that will take place, in addition to the fat weight loss. The tricky part though, is that I have a $200 jeans bet (with my sister) riding on my weighing 135 by August 1st. I really hope to win this bet! :eek:
Happy 4th!
Today's weight: 171
Goal: 160 with an ultimate goal of 140
Mileage Goal: 125/week average so 1000 miles total
I'll also post inches lost, love tracking that!
My plan (other than to ride lots) is to incorporate some core work even if it's just crunches or my Yogilates DVD. I also want to start hiking more so I plan to go up Badger Mtn (not as bad as it sounds LOL) at least once a week.
I do well on a South Beach diet and really need to cut out sugar and bad carbs. I'm going to start with a 1 week detox diet and then transition into SB Phase 2 with a couple fruit and a grain per day.

Btw, my absolute goal weight is 128, but 130 would have me rather giddy already. I am 5'-7" and I have long lean limbs, but my waist is in the 'pushing on dangerous realm' - @34. Did anyone see that front page yahoo article a few weeks ago about Japan's new plans the measure the waist lines of all of their people and to fine anyone who is wider than the recommended waist lines?
I couldn't believe it. If I remember correctly, it was like 33 for men and 36 for women. They would actually be fined if their waistlines went any bigger! Could you imagine them doing that here in this country??:eek:
Anyway - good luck to everyone here on their July/August goals!::)
I would also like to participate. Unfortunately, I will be spending first 3 weeks with my parents (not much excercise) but I hope I will attain my goal at the end. Thanks for organizing the thread!
Starting weight: 167
Weight goal: 160
Excercise goal: starting on upper body and 6 pack
Diet goal: Less alcohol, less late night dinners
