My weight loss goal
My next short term goal is 20 pounds by the time we leave for Disney. It's a little less than 2 pounds per week. It'll be hard but I think I can do it. Also, since I know I'll be doing surgery and hoping getting pregnant soon, I want to be as skinny as possible. FYI - I still won't be skinny but I won't be "obese" anymore - stupid BMI chart.
So, I'm putting out there so I'm sort of accountable

Re: My weight loss goal
You can do it!
We're all here to support you, and I'm right there with you, trying to lose 20 pounds myself.

I think that is a resonable goal to shoot for. I would be in to a weekly check in. We used to do the healthy train and I think it was helpful for me when we did it. I like being accountable for something.
Since we started our biggest loser program in work I'm down a grand total of 11 lbs and it's been just about 6 weeks so almost 2lbs a week, I know slow and steady is a good thing but I need more
The gym has helped a lot it hasn't really helped me to lose weight, but I can really feel a difference in my body, so that's a good thing. I would love to run, and I've tried it and it just doesn't work for me (I've got things giggling that just shouldn't be and it's too hard).

I totally understand that! I wear 2 bra's because if I don't, I'll have black eyes. I felt really awkward running at first. I felt like an elephant and still do sometimes but I just stick to it. Walk and then walk faster and faster until you work up to jogging. That's what I did. Then I started the C25k

I actually do that now, especially when I do that crazy pilates class, it helps a little bit, but it's still not perfect.
I love to walk, I even started wearing a pedometer to try to force myself a little further. They say you should take 10000 steps a day, but with a sedantary job it's really hard. I'm lucky if I get 3000/4000 a day. I just guess I have to try to walk a little faster and faster.

I'm in, if we want to do something like a weekly weigh-in. I'm doing this 3-week fitness challenge on FB with some friends - while I haven't really dropped much weight yet, I've been watching what I eat and drinking more water, and that has definitely helped.
I start C25K [again] next week, since I'll be 6 weeks post-surgery and won't have any restrictions. Goal is to lose 10 pounds by the holidays.

Belly dancing itself is great exercise. The gym used to have a few classes, but since the zumba craze they cancelled them all.

I'm in too. I did week 1 of WW last week, and this week I started running again. It's nice to be back out there. I can already feel a difference in how changing my eating has changed other parts of my life. I'm happier, knowing that I'm doing a good thing for myself.
I have about 20 lbs to drop for now. I think 25 to get to wedding weight. But I know that 20 lbs less than I am now is manageable for me.
Me too! After Charli comes I would really like to join your weekly check in, if I'm welcome!?
I guess my little weight gain is still okay according to my OB because she hasn't said anything about it. I have only gained 8 lbs since my BFP but I had a good amount of extra poundage before BFP.
I am 5'11" and would like to get back at least to my wedding weight (so about 30 lbs or more to lose). Hopefully BF will help me out.
Of course you're welcome to do it! How did you seriously get to 30 weeks already? geez that was fast!

I'd love to do actual belly dancing classes, but time is an issue. I can use my Wii at midnight, not so many classes at that hour.
Hey, chickies, do me a favor? If I don't post on a check-in day, CALL ME OUT ON IT. I do that (avoid) when I've been bad and am embarrassed, so don't let me get away with it. There. I admitted it.

You're telling me! OMG. I am excited and scared to death! I still get people telling me "you're small for being 7 months." Never in my life have I ever been small, in any aspect!
