So happy to have found this thread!
We go to Disney every other year and I always tell myself next trip I am going to be in the body I want. Well that next trip is this August and the time is now! I have a fifteen year old daughter who just reached my height and I had to take her for a sick visit to the doctor in February. Discovered she was 45 pounds less than I and I said that is it! Since we had a trip planned to Ireland I late March I did not start then but worked on figuring out my plan. When we returned from Ireland the plan was to start the following Monday and luckily for me most of the people on our trip ( we went with 14 couples) had the same plans. A Facebook group was formed and we are tracking percent of weight lost, water drunk and exercise done every few days on a google spreadsheet. This has been the perfect accountability for me. Since we started last Monday I have lost 5 pounds and have hit my water goal everyday and my exercise every day but one.
Would love to join in with you! While the other group is great accountability it is mostly " just the facts" and as we all know each other there is not much real discussion about the other side of weight loss....the emotional, personal side.
Here is my snapshot:
Age: 47
Goal: 45 pounds (possibly more, will see when I get there)
Method: eliminated wheat from my diet, exercise daily, 64 Oz minimum water per day
Disney trip: August 2016
Have only read a couple of pages at the beginning but will definitely catch up on this thread as soon as I can.
