    This is perfect timing as I definitely need some accountability and motivation to be better to myself again. Was doing well the first part of last year until fall then . . . we all know the story. Feeling yucky so need to get back on track. At least I didn't regain it all again.

    I’ve noticed that a lot of people on here are setting big weight loss goals, some between 10 to 20 pounds for the month of January. I just want to ask if you’re being realistic with yourself? I understand that if you’re very large you’ll lose weight quicker or if you’ve just begun you weight loss trek, you’ll drop a lot of weight in the first few weeks. Different people lose at different speeds. However, something to remember is there are only 4 weeks in January so even if you lost 2 pounds a week, that’s only 8 pounds for the month. I’m not trying to be a naysayer, I want everyone to meet or exceed their goals. I just hate to see people set themselves up for disappointment because they were unable to achieve their goal. I've done it before and it sucks.

    I'm in! Returning MFP member after regaining all the weight I lost 2 years ago (wish I could blame it on 'baby weight', but the baby is now 19 months - that's all me!). I got a Jawbone Up24 band for Christmas which I already love - anyone else here using one?
