Struggles/successes this week: last week was my first week using MFP after a long absence. I had a pretty good week, lost 2 pounds, ate reasonably. Didn't exercise the latter half of the week as a was fighting off a nasty cold, so I'm going to focus on that this week.

I completed the weight loss challenge for January and am down eight pounds! I want to be solidly in the 150-152 range by the beginning of March. Currently I am on track with exercise but could switch out a few foods for something with more "bulk" and less calories to stay in the 1300-1600 calories a day range that I'll need to lose 1.5 pounds a week. I have the week's menu planned out already to help me stay on track. I've also left my food diary open to encourage accountability!

Good luck everyone!

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

Struggles/successes this week: I've been struggling for a long time, so I guess I'll say my struggles are that this seems impossible. I haven't lost any weight in a meaningful way in a long time. I don't know how I'll do this time, but I sure will try! See you next week.

Good Morning everyone!!!! And welcome to all posters. Wow, we've got a great group!!!

Well done to the Americans in this thread for surviving Super Bowl Sunday!!! Whether you managed to stay under your cal goal (Wowzers!!!) or not, you've got another 6 days until weigh in so you can bring it back!!!

Anyone who prefers different weigh-in days, feel free to change. This is your own personal challenge so things like weigh in days, goals, cal counts, etc are your call. We are just here to motivate & support each other.

If you want a bit of help finding this thread each week then click on the star above the page numbers (it'll turn yellow) and then it will be in your bookmark section (go to the star in that row of symbols near the bell, etc).

Have a fab day!!!

i've set a bit of a small goal for myself. I started on night shifts 3 weeks ago (and work 2 jobs) and going to the gym just doesn't work in my life at this point. Today i'm starting a 15 minute yoga routine when i get home in the morning, and i'm just going to try to focus on eating well. glad to be a part of this!

Hi everyone!

Some of us did a January challenge and it seems to have really helped a lot of people so I thought I'd start a February challenge. It doesn't matter if you didn't do January - everyone is welcome!!!

So, I'll basically copy the layout from January. If you want to join, just copy this and update every week. Here goes:

Weight loss/gain so far this month:

Struggles/successes this week: It all goes so well during the day, I walk and I cycle and I'm basically outside a lot, eat healthy when I'm hungry and don't over eat. But as soon as my three year old son is in bed I start eating!! I'm so hungry then, as if I've been starving for months! Still I haven't gain any weight since I started logging, but have hardly lost any either.

Count me on please. I did a Jan challenge and lost 14lbs. I've weighed since then and seem to be up 2 but put it down to hormonal fluctuations as my diet has been pretty ok on average. So, I'll make my start weight for Feb my last formal weigh-in in Jan. Will aim at slow and steady loss.. target 6lbs for Feb.
