Cool BIKINI season ... who needs a buddy?

Hey Guys,
I was just thinking that bikini season is on the way. Maybe somebody wants to join me in a little challenge - we'd check in everyday (ish) and say how we are doing until we reach our goals. Just to keep eachother on track and really get where we wnat to be!
Anybody In??

Talking i wanna join!!!

Hi I'm just starting induction today!!! Even though we just got snow, which is really crappy since its already april, time is going to fly by and it'll be bathing suit time!!! I'm very determined and really plan to do this, even though i've promissed myself before and always ended up cheating...
By the way I'm 19 yrs old and a college freshman. My biggest problem is usually overeating at night time, usually happens if i'm stressing or procrastinating. My cravings get the worst at night. And last time I tried LC (but didnt do induction correctly) i would overeat at night So my goal is to gain control of this terrible habbit. Even though finals are coming up pretty soon and everyone around me is going to be stocking up on junk food, i'm very determined to find a new way of coping w/stress. hmmm Exercise??!!! Yeah, really trying to get back into gym mode; need some motivation - i hate dragging my butt there in the cold weather.

I'm really determined...just wondering, are you guys using fitday to keep track?? it seems like such a pain in the butt. I was thinking of writing stuff down in a notebook and try to approximate how much i'm consuming....

Ok, hope i'm not rambling too much. Good luck everyone!!!



(my mini goal: get down to 150 by may 7 - first day of my vacation!!!! yea we get out early)

Oh! Karrah! I love your ideas for the mini goals! It makes everything seem a little but easier instead of "Omigosh I have 67 lbs to lose!" it's "Oh! I only need to lose 5" or "I need to lose 10." Smart thinking...I"m gonna start that!

Thumbs up

only day 2 for me but i'm pumped up!!! about to go to the gym with my best friend, really trying to get into exercise mode...The only problem i can see coming is during my finals period - i always overconsume coffee and other illegal crap. I'll have to try to find other ways of dealing with the stress...Also decided that once i reach my goal weight, I'll go and splurge on a really cute bathing suit. I'm getting inspired by all the new fashions in the magazines!!! Good luck everyone
