Ok Ladies -- I noticed that a lot of us are trying to get back into shape, or keep up our shape! So I'm starting this thread to motivate us to get started & keep it going through the holidays!!
Share your goal, track progress & activity, any feelings about it, and most of all -- motivate the rest of us!!
For example, my goal is:
See, I didn't give numbers -- but I did establish a clear goal. Progress tracking doesn't need to be specific pound/kg counts, but can be percentages. Like... you're 15% on your way to reaching your goal!
And best of all -- scrap!!!! Simple journaling, or include pictures if you feel like it. A great indication of weight loss doesn't have to be your whole body -- faces show a lot too!
So, if you agree with this idea of mine -- how far do you want to take it? Through Christmas? New Year? Armenian/Orthodox Christmas?

For example, my goal is:
To get back down to my weight when I graduated from high school & to hopefully go down that cup size I gained going on the pill. Talk about back problems!!
I want to start with walking a few miles every day with my mother in law after work, and eventually feel comfortable enough to go to the gym & use the elliptical again. Both my husband and I are going to modify our diets, but that's going to be a challenge with my health restrictions.
