    I also started a February 2015 Weight Loss Challenge!!! I think we must have done it at about the same time as I mentioned it on here just before you posted. Great minds think alike, eh? We'll probably get some people going from one to another. Good Luck with your group!!!

    Great success! The Daniel fast is helping me keep on track. B) Fruits, veggies, grains---no meats, breads, sweets. We'll see how that plays out for weight loss after I am off the fast February 1.

    I'm in for February tracking to see what happens when I go back to normal eating. <3

    Struggles or successes of your week:

    I injured the back of knee/hamstring on Sunday. It felt really tight. I went to hard at the gym on Saturday, and Sunday. This forced me to not be able to work out all week.

    I ate under my calorie intake all week but It was not as healthy as it should have been.
    Also I did not drink enough water all week. This morning I can tell my body is holding water.

    Also I have been have skin issues so I plan to see the doctor about them today.

    Overall I am proud of myself. In two months I lost 14 pounds! 7 pounds the last two months!

    Onwards to the February Weight Loss Challenge!
