July/August weight loss thread

[katluvr]

I have not done this for a LONG time since the past few times I really did not make any progress. But since I am sitting here and my work slacks are a bit snug I need to really concentrate. And I are really concentrating on getting back on a real training plan. So now is the good time.
I'll weigh in later and set official goal. Right now I suspect I want to lose 5 lbs in 8 weeks (it is an 8 week block, right?)
Also, will I post my own weight now...or we submit here and someone else keeps chart up? I think things may have changed since I last did this.
I CAN DO THIS!

For any new folks, or returnees (I hear ya on the snug pants!)

Post in this thread and I'll take the numbers and put them in the spreadsheet. I will post a link here to the spreadsheet on googledocs.com and everyone will be able to go in and read it (hopefully )

I have it set for 8 weeks with the dates set for Friday. But don't worry if you are on a schedule where you weigh in on Saturday or Sunday or whatever. I tend to like Monday because I seem to do better over the weekends and that gives me a little more time to lose a bit.

So let me know your goal for the 8 weeks and this weekend weigh in for the first week. I'll put that info all into the spreadsheet. And don't worry if you are late to post - heck, sometimes I'm late to check! And if you'd rather not have a goal, that's OK. Basically - this is to help you, so whatever works best for you, is OK by me.

I'm starting the Belly-Off program from Women's Health Mag today. Anyone else tried it or is doing it?

I also posted on the other May/June forum. 130 now, 125=goal.

Thanks so much for all the encouragement from all comers. I have been able to lose 4 much needed pounds already....I hear ya, too, ...tight pants!

Thanks to posse for keeping us all on the track! Good work!
