In the spirit of the other WISH threads that focus around a goal to achieve, I thought I'd start a new thread for those of us who are looking to lose weight before our next Disney trip in 2015.
I'd like this to be a place for support, motivation, & accountability. What's the promise to yourself to exercise without accountability, right? I've found that if I'm not accountable to anyone, I can easily make an excuse not to exercise.
Please post the following information in your initial post to subscribe:
-First name
-Date of 2015 Disney trip goal
-Reason for the goal
-Target approach for the goal (walk 5 miles/10,000 steps everyday, walk 35 miles/70,000 steps per week, weight training 3x per week, etc.)
-Progress to date/Total goal (i.e. 25lbs/100lbs lost, or 2in/10in lost, or 1size/3sizes lost, etc.)
Here are some guidelines to follow:
-Check-in at least once per week
-Number your updates (Wk 1 update, etc.) to help you track your progress
-Repost the previous information (top 3 bullets) above in each check-in post
-Provide an update on your approach (I walked 50 miles this week, etc.)
-Provide an update to your progress (30lbs/100lbs lost, etc.)
-Post early & often providing support, feedback, & motivation to others
-Try to focus advice & suggestions mainly to good old fashioned exercise & healthy eating. Please try to stay away from suggesting diets or pills
-Be kind & respectful to all
I will update the listing of our group & everyone's progress as regularly as possible. As you reach milestones toward your goal, your name and total will change color in the Group List post.
At 10%, you'll be orange
When you reach 25%, you'll be aqua
When you reach 50%, you'll be purple
When you reach 75%, you'll be blue
At 90%, you'll be red
When you hit 100%, you'll be green!
Let's get serious about doing this & get started together!
