What the hell.

Lots of talk in the forums and PM's about fitness goals. The way that weight watchers worked for me was getting on that scale once a week and cheering weight loss in a public setting.

Now this is public.

My goal is 185 pounds or 12% body fat, whichever comes first.

Today I'm at 213 and about 19% (Tanita bodyfat monitor scale)

As I and whoever else wants to join it make progress, we'll post like this Starting weight/Current weight/Goal weight/Pounds lost.

Mine would be 213/213/185/0.

For folks who don't want to post their actual tonnage I'd suggest Goal weight loss/weight lost.

Mine would be 28/0.

At 213 I really don't feel all that obese since I peaked out at about 300 a few years ago, but I got lax in the last year and the comments from the skinnies about my "built in arch" and shit like that at Eloy were annoying. Being thin is a less annoying lifestyle.

Who's in?

Well, hell, I'll post something...:)
goal weight/desired weight loss : 125/10 I've managed to drop 10 pounds from July by running my little ass off and of course monitoring what I eat. I have somewhere between 10-15 pounds more to lose.

I was recently just informed that for a 20 year old female of my build the target heart rate for 'fat burning' is 130 bpm. I run just shy of 4 miles 5-6 times a week and I guarantee you my heart rate gets well into the 150's. Is this fat burning heart rate the real deal? Or what? I suppose either way I'm going to have one really healthy heart.

For my new years resolution I've given up drinking soda. It's damn hard to stay hydrated when you drink 2-3 diet cokes a day. I've made it a whole 3 and a half days.

Any thoughts?? (specifically on this fat burning heart rate as compared to high intensity cardio?)

Sure, I'm in. :D

Short term goal is:

10/0

Long term goal is:

18/0

I'm not obese and my clothes still fit, but I've heard that flying/landing a Lightning is better if your wing loading is less.

It's all about CRW for me, folks. :)

I've been doing well lately. I don't weigh myself....I just go by how my clothes fit and how I look in the mirror. I don't know what happened.....I guess it was eating all that crap and drinking like a Viking every day at WFFC. From then until November I must have gained 10-15 pounds. :S I went to put on a pair of pants that I had bought in Spring 2004. They were literally SEVERAL inches too small in the waist. [:/] They now fit again but I still have another 10 lbs or so to go. It's tough now that I live 200 yards from my parents though. My Mom calls me several times a week trying to get me to come eat something she has made. :D

I know how you feel. I don't need to loose lbs, but my pants are all too tight. My thighs seem to have expanded since I have been inactive for so long. It's extremely embarrassing.

My goal is to be able to fit easily into my tightest pair of jeans.

235 / 232 / 180 / 3
Bodyfat: 28%

I dropped 30lbs last year from late January to early March doing the slimfast thing, and lots of cardio. Since then I have gained 15lbs back. I'm dropping again though, especially now that I've got a puppy in the house that I need to take for jogs. I can't wait to get down to my goal. Sometimes though, it doesn't seem like it's even possible [:/]

Beware Losing weight has it's downsize:o Uh I mean downside.

If you all lose all them lbs your w/l will go down so you'll be buying new canopies/containers or jumping with weights:(

For every pound you lose someone else will have to gain a lb:( Or the earth will spin out of orbit:S

Seriously:)

Someone on the news said that after a study of the weight loss programs/diets there was only one that worked. Weight watchers: people kept a minimum of 50% of their weight loss off aftr 2 yr's.

Good luck in your goals

R.I.P.
