Hi -
I just sent my PM, but thought I'd jump into the conversation.
I'm Laura - 40something from Long Island, New York. I've been doing these WISH challenges on and off for a while.
I set my goal for the month at 10 pounds - I know that is pretty ambitious, but I think at my weight (over 200) it is possible.
In the past, my only activity was walking a few miles each night. But about 2 months ago, I joined a boot camp. It is pretty intense and I am doing things that I never thought possible. Although I've only lost about 7 pounds so far, I am losing inches by leaps and bounds. (For pictures, see this post: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=3174168
Until recently I was following a combination of Weight Watchers and tracking calories on LoseIt. This past Saturday I started following a plan recommended by my boot camp trainer. It is based on calculating your needed daily macronutrients (carbs, proteins, fats) and caloric deficits specific to a variety of factors. We are doing a six-week challenge at boot camp, so I thought it would be the perfect time to join a WISH challenge as well.
Looking forward to working with you guys this month.
