    I'm in for February. This challenge helped me lose 9.4 in January so I'm aiming for 8 in February. I changed my WI dates to keep to my Thursday WI schedule.

    I'm just restarting my journey after a few months of health struggles and sugar binges so this is great! Struggles so far... Half a jar of Nutella. Success so far was finding a salad bag I like!

    I'm in! I just completed the January challenge, losing more than my goal of 8-10lbs for the month. I finished with a 12.8lb loss, and I feel that the challenge motivated me more than anything. Checking in each week was fun, and seeing everyone posting their stats kept me going. Looking forward to a new challenge each month. Good luck to all :smile:

    Good Morning!!! And Happy 1st February!!! Oh....and most importantly....welcome along to our February challenge. As I mentioned at the start of this thread, I did a January challenge and it really helped so that's why I started this. I'm really looking forward to updating every week and seeing everyone's progress.

    And as extra motivation for myself & everyone else, here's my results from January:

    Jan 1st: 181lbs (12st 13lbs), BMI 30.2 (obese), Body Fat 42.3%
    Feb 1st: 167.5lbs (11st 13.5lbs), BMI 27.9 (overweight), Body Fat 37.5%

    So, that's a loss of 13.5lbs, a drop of 2.3 BMI points and a drop of 4.8% Body Fat in one calendar month!!! Not bad, eh? I also lost 17 inches from my whole body (inc. 5.5 inches from my belly!). So, I'm a very happy girl!!!!

    Here's to a successful February whatever your goals....lets do this!

    Struggles/successes this week:

    Feeling motivated after a fabulous result in January. Being conservative about my February goal as I know weight loss slows after that initial big drop. But I think I can manage a steady 2lbs per week on average. Anything more will be a bonus!

    Thanks!!! I couldn't believe it when I got on the scales this morning!!! And being 11 stone something rather than 12 stone something makes a huge psychological difference to me. The January thread really helped but I kickstarted everything with a sober January and laid off the sugar too.
