    And just think...we'll be super cheap dates if/when alcohol is introduced back in :)

    Another goal I forgot to add is to slow down when I eat and take the time to actually "taste" my food. I forget how much of an impact this actually makes on enjoying my meals.

    Great title!

    I'll take my Jan 31st weight of 188.8 as my starting weight (even though that was partially due to dehydration and I was a couple of pounds up by the morning of Feb 1st!)

    Goal weight by March 1st: 176.3. That's 12.5 pounds, so 3.125 pounds per week. I need to get rid of around 1500kcal everyday to achieve that not considering other factors.

    I'll reduce caffeine intake
    Take meds and vitamins.
    Stay keto
    Sleep around midnight
    Focus on work
    Get back on the bike desk!
    Physical therapy exercises, work them in
    Less TV

    Good luck everyone!

    January was a great month for me! I want to stick with that:
    * STAY in my goal range for maintenance!! (Tentatively I'll keep logging every day or almost every day but if the weight stays put without that, that's OK by me, too! :))
    * Keep up with strength training 3x/wk plus running.
    * Gradually increase my veggies/fruits.
    * I really need to work on sleep!! In bed by 10:30 this week, 10:00 next week.

    2/1 check in: weight and carbs good. Did my strength training. Took my collagen. Cleaned the bathtub.

    @missippibelle thanks for the app recommendation. I too hate to see notifications pop up so it could be good motivation!

    @Ringbearer2 I am currently using the Great Lakes beef collagen in the green tub. It's the only brand I've tried but it reviews well. Dissolves best in hot water and doesn't seem to effect the taste of things much. I mix it with tea usually.

    Scale cooperated this morning! Should have won the DietBet but holding my breath til I get the verification email.
    Now at 131.2. Goal maintenance range is 130-133 so this is a great place to be. Just need to get maintenance figured out better than I did last year! (It wasn't terrible but I kept bouncing from 134-139. Extra lbs all in the belly so i had clothes that didn't get worn. Belly is definitely a bit flatter again (for me ;) I look 3 months pregnant instead of 5 if I don't dress carefully to conceal it ;))!

    Yesterday was Hero 90 Week 4, Day 2 and since it was warmer, an hour walk listening to podcasts. Including this one:

    Her version of what I always say: Consistency + Perseverance + Time= Success

    Scale is still stupid. Le sigh...

    The scale IS stupid!!! But, I had BPC again today and no dark choc chips last night.

    Elliptical and treadmill last night, 30 min each. Calling Feb 1st a success :)
