Starting weight: 82.66 kg
Goal weight: +\- 120 lbs is my overall goal which is around, from what I've heard, the average ideal weight for a woman. I am more concerned though with the inches around my tummy than my weight so that might change as I lose weight and start seeing a figure lol.

Struggles or successes for the week: So many leftovers from Christmas and New Years Eve; stress eating from all the family gatherings because I have really bad social anxiety

The silver lining on all this being I can wipe the slate clean and start afresh for 2015

Struggles or successes of your week: 5 days in and I have logged everyday and been close to my calorie goal Turned high calorie breakfast favorite (home fries, bacon, cheese, onion, sour cream) in to not-quite-as-high calorie breakfast (half the oil for potatoes, < half the cheese, no sour cream). Still good.

I know I'm a bit late, just starting today but I want and NEED this!!! Have been falling a bit off track since before Christmas and I feel this will be good for me and hopefully give me motivation!! I'm glad we weigh in both the 29th and 31st, gives me those extra two days since I'm starting 4 days late

I have no idea how to update my weight on my post. Do I just repost the whole thing with the new weight included each week? Thanks for any info.

Struggles or successes of your week: serious this time. Lost over 50 lbs 4 years ago during a divorce. Quit smoking this year and have gained 40 back.

Does anyone else think it would be a good idea if we had another thread for chatting with each other and supporting each other? A thread like this to see each others' stats and progress is good but it would be nice to have another thread where we can chat about what's working, what we're struggling with, what we're eating, exercise, etc.
