Kim...I thought that I had given a goal. Probably a Freudian slip on my part (I am not doing great on my diet lately)!

I would like to lose a total of 25 lbs before my cruise in July. I am down 15 lbs so far. So, I guess that my goal will be 10 lbs. I need to go back to phase one of the SBD to get my diet jump-started again.

You are doing great

Rose

Kim,

I really like your tag line. Okay, for me, still the same plateau for 10 weeks. I have this week off from school and have decided to be very dedicated to my weight loss. That includes a LOT of bike riding, walking, and portion control. For this week, I'm trying to lose 2 pounds. Cathy

Until our **STAR** search

Hi All,

Well, since I pledged 15 lbs., 6 of that 15 is gone and I have 9 left to get to my goal.

From when I started on Feb. 3, right now I am at "16 down and 9 to go". BUT I only have 34 days til I cruise so I guess I better stick to my plan to make it to my goal!

Have a great day everyone.

Is it ok if I don't set a specific number? I just want to keep loosing and see that scale go down!!

I have lost 21 lbs. since Feb. 2nd. and don't really have a cruise planned or really know where I want to be (except less of course)!!

Kim great job 34 already By June 21 you will have flown right by that 48 mark.

Rose 15 down and 10 to go. Yep, you'll be looking good on that cruise in July.

Mary Ann you will make it. Sixteen down in two months that is wounderful when looking at 25.

Ginny I liked how you worded your goal. A goal doesn't have to be a number.

See you all at the scales on Thursday. I'm flying out on Friday. Hope for a small gain on the cruise. But I plan to enjoy

Thought I had pledged also, but maybe not. Anyway, I am pledging 10 pounds by June 21. I am a little discouraged now. Still cannot shed the cruise pounds, but I sure enjoyed putting them on! If I lose the 10 on sWIFT, I will have another 16 to goal. Thanks for everyone's help.

2 down, 10 more to go for SWIFT pledge. It would be soooo nice to begin the summer at my goal weight. Good luck to us all!

Shelia I have one booked too. Leaving Friday for N.O. Crusing the Holiday on 4/10. This morning I hit my goal but, I have to get what I gain on the cruise back off by June 21st

3/5/05 Honeymoon Cruise To Hawaii On The Island Princess

Hi, I have been active in cruise crtics for just over a year and never realized this board was here. Well, after gaining 12 pounds on last April's cruise only to come home and continue to gain another 8 pounds over the next 8 months I decided that I better do something about it. January 2nd I started my weight loss program which is a combination of weight watchers, low carb, and exercise. As of this morning I have taken off 26.5 pounds. My husband has also been working on his weight loss and has lost 21 pounds.

My goal is to loose another 12 pounds before we leave on our Alaska cruise on the MS Oosterdam May 15th.

I am being realistic I know I will gain some weight on the cruise but I plan to actually use the ship gym, walk out side on the deck and not have double servings of anything.

Then when we get home get back on that treadmill and loose another 20 pounds.

Glad to see there is others out there like me.
