Great idea. I know there are some woman on the April thread who are also trying to get healthy, lose weight, or just feel better. For me I need to increase my energy level and feel good about myself again. What is your goal weight? 175 How much you have to lose? 40 lb How you got here? TTC ,depression, and unhealthy eating habits. Veggie? What's that? Whats your method? Whole wheat/Multigrains, no fastfood in the car, no sodas,treadmill, elliptical, stairs 45-60min daily and weight training By what date? No specific, just feel better about self, reduce moods.

I think this is a good idea.
what is your goal weight? 160 How much you have to lose? about 40 How did you get here? TTC and pregnancy, depression over eating What is your method? It is going to be walking, exercising and watching what I eat. By what date? At least by summer. Maybe sooner

Me too, me too! I tried this once before, but it didn't really take off....hopefully we can get the ball rolling for some support for us TTLW (trying to lose weight)ladies!
What is your goal weight? 140 How much you have to lose? 35 lb How you got here? TTC (those darn meds!) Some depression, overeating, but not working the calories off. Whats your method? Walking in the morning, watching and cutting my calorie intake drastically, watching portion sizes more closely, and, my first big goal-not eating anything after supper----no snacking at night!!!! By what date? Starting 3/1 and hoping for 3 months, so by 6/1.

Hey Ladies,
Well, I made it to the gym today. I had to force myself to go, but once I got there it was a good workout. I always feel better after I workout, but it is so hard to get there. Now I'm off to figure out what's for dinner. Have a good evening.

Wow...I am so much heavier than you all
But ready to make some changes..I kinda failed at the new years resolution thing...lol What is your goal weight? under 200 for now (we'll say 199) How much do you have to loose? about 60 How you got there? PCOS, Thyroid, TTC for 9+ years, Depression, 6+ years worth of taking care of 57 kids...and living through 4 foster-adoptions, of loving kids with all my heart and never knowing wether they'd be mine forever even after years of them being with me...then...dealing with adoptive mother questions/fears/guilt and difficult open adoptions....the list goes on and on...but mainly low self esteem relating to infetility and not taking care of myself by excersizing/eating healthy.

Thank you for starting this thread....
what is your goal weight? 150 How much you have to lose? about 20 How did you get here? 2 IVF cycles, depression, stopped working out, m/c and excuses What is your method? Going back to the gym (4x per week - mandatory) and watching my diet By what date? Not sure - start stims in April.... |

Wow! Our list is growing. It's nice to know I'm not alone in the weight department. I think I had my eyes closed while I gained weight and then one day I looked in the mirror and thought what the H*ll happened to you?? Thank god I'm tall. My DH and I are both getting back to the gym and watching portion sizes. For me the toughest time of the day is from 3-5:30 for snacking. Anyone else have a tough time of the day?

Wow great to have everyone! I think it is cool how we can all share a different comon goal now. Well i read something that said to eat dinner off of a salad plate (saucer) and that will help you maintain portion control. Its worth a shot. The having to cook for two boys is what will kill me. DH is always perfect size and muscular so he snacks CONSTANTLY!!! LIKE 5 TIMES FROM WHEN HE WALKS IN THE DOOR TILL BED! so naturally i want to join him but i kept telling him last night i dont want any thank you when really i wanted that ice cream soooooo bad. hehehe. I dont have time to go to the gym because i dont want my little guy being watched any longer than absolutly necesary (I am kinda obsessive like that) lol. Oh well he will be big one day and i will have all the time i need for now i will just ride bikes with him or something.

We only recently joined a gym because of the weather. Before that I was walking Bella, our lab, about an hour a day. I feel guilty going to the gym and not walking her, but I'm not getting out in the 10F weather. If it's 30F I'll concider it, but not any lower. We are supposed to have wonderful weather this weekend.......yeehaw!! I also heard to eat an apple before dinner and that fiber will help fill you up quicker. I've been trying to do it, and it seems to be a good start. mdbrum..........I'll have to look up that diet. I've been doing the glycemic index (1 week) to help with the PCOS. That's great that you've already lost 17lbs. ![]()

Hi Girls, I saw this thread and thought I might 'pop in'. What you are doing here is great! I am not trying to lose weight yet, but I thought maybe if any of you ever wanted any advice I could help. I used to be a personal trainer, and I have a BS degree in exercise science/health promotion.
I would be happy to help out in any way. you could pm me, or I will check back here. Or ya'll can tell me to buzz off if you want.......![]()
