Goal: 224 

Hi all...was wondering if I could join in.  I've been lurking on this thread on and off for the past couple of months.  I'll admit that I'm not always the best at keeping up with threads, but I'll give it a go.

Weighing in this Month at 241.6.
Goal-235

I've been arguing with the same 5 lbs for close to 7 months, so I'd like to stop arguing with those 5, have them hit the road, and start arguing with the next 5...

I hear ya maggyruth. I have been dealing with the same issue...time for those 5 lbs to go!

Hi Skinny Team-mates!

I'd like to join in this month. I am two months post-partum, adjusting to life as a new mom. I have the OK for exercise from my doc, and am adding it in slowly. Basically I just need encouragement! Fitting in workouts around baby is tough and I am impatient. I am not losing as fast as I thought I should. I gained 31 lbs. Since the birth, I've lost 24. So I have just 7 to lose to make it back to pre-preggo weight. However, when I got pregnant, I was in the process of losing post-wedding weight. To get back to my best shape of recent history I need to lose 17 more lbs., and my long-term goal is 20 lbs beyond that. I am breastfeeding, which is supposed to mean I get 300-500 extra calories a day! But it also seems like my body wants to hold on to a few extra lbs. just in case. Anyway, for now:

starting weight: 213.8
goal for May: 210

I'm in the same boat, except I've been arguing with mine for about a year   I'm ready for them to just go AWAY!!


And since the other thread is now dead, I'll move this convo in this thread. . .

Um, yeah, we're totally the same person   Except I don't have a baby; I just eat too many cupcakes, lol.

Unfortunately my yoga practice has been suffering recently, since starting tri training.  My yoga teacher recently made a comment during one of my poses, accusing me of cycling!!  I guess it was apparent in my suddenly lack of flexibility in my hip flexors

Welcome, new folks! Glad to have you in Team Skinny!

I would like to lose about 2 pounds per week.  If my starting weight is 150.5 then I should weigh in at these:

148.5
146.5
144.5
142.5
140.5

I like the "No Excuses" - I need no more excuses!  This is going to be my month!!!

Starting @ 180
Goal of 172

Well that sucked, looking at the April thread and I had an ambitious goal and didn't even lose a half pound.

So here we go, May is my month

starting 212.2
ending   199.9!!!

Yup! Thats ambitious. Not impossible for "THE SHERMINATOR" though
