From this moment on I WILL...

...eat better things, exercise more, drink more water, do whatever I need to to lose weight and become a better/healthier me.

I've tried to get myself motivated on the COLTS FIT FANS group, but for whatever the reason I can't get much discussion going there. I think that the groups part of MyCOLTS.net get forgotten sometimes. So here I am with a new blog. I thought maybe if I could post here a few times a week. Post how I exercised, was challenged in some way, felt about something...whatever...it would be a little easier to get and stay motivated. We watch the shows Celebrity Fit Club and The Biggest Loser. Last night was The Biggest Loser. I find that show soooooo way inspiring. Those ordinary people have lost hundreds of pounds, changed their lives, and done it all infront of the world. If they can do it...I can do it too. I WILL BE A HEALTHIER and better me.

My goal right now is going to be to lose 10 pounds before race day the end of May.

I will join you on the 10 pounds by race day! I quit smoking in January so now it is time to conquer another problem and get healthier! With the weather getting better it will be easier to be more active. I am wearing my pedometer every day and trying to increase my steps! I'll keep you posted and you do the same and then we can enjoy race day in May!!!

I am in the process of having the lap ban surgery done. Some of the things you have to do is write down everything you eat, loose 15% of your body weight on your own increase your activity and check in once a week. To date I have lost 11.6 pounds in 8 weeks. I had a 3.5 pound gain in the week of and the one after Eliza was born (total for the 2 weeks). I am back on track now and had a loss this week. I have been over weight my whole life so I know a lot about how to loose it. It's just making myself do it that is hard. I drink water,skim milk or juice ( just a little bit because of all the sugar) most of the time. Every once in a while I'll have sweet tea. It is a long hard road and if you get off it the weight will come back on faster than off, thats for sure. Good luck to all who are going down this road. Here's to a healther us!

Good luck I too have such a hard time losing weight. I don't have alot to lose but I have been trying to lose a bout 7 lbs I put on when I had to toake oral steroids about a month agai and I am really struggling. I already exercos 6 days a week so being nmore active isn't rreally an option, I have tried to cut oout chocolate but I have real bad slip ups sometimes. I have started eating a pdreice of fruot or a specila K bar for brewskfast. I used toskip breakfast but they say you lose more weight by weating many smaoo meals, Like bluebleeder said I think its true, I have lost abouty 3 pounds in the last 2 weeks. Its very frustrating becasue I put hte 7 lbs on in 6 days and it is taking way to long to come off. My clothes don't fiot right and I feel uncomfortable. Keep up the good work your plans sounds solid and just know we are all supporting you and I know you will lose those 10 lbs by race day.

This is a great idea! Good luck! I am with you. I need to lose weight, and get healthy. Now that it's started to warm up, I have decided to try to get out and walk some every day. I also need to cut out snacks between meals, and to eat healthier.
