    I really feel like I'm struggling recently. I was doing great the whole holiday season and then I let myself relax for the week between Christmas and New year's. Just went back to the gym yesterday for the first time since before Christmas. I need to get tough on myself to eat below maintenance.

    I want to be a late participant. :smile: I'm going to weigh in tomorrow for my starting weight although it will be only 2 days before the next weigh-in. I've been avoiding the scale because I haven't been doing very well lately.

    Edit: Actually, I'll just make my weigh-ins on Wednesdays instead of the Fridays since it doesn't really matter.

    Loss Goal before March 20: 5 pounds (I know it's small but mfp won't even let me try for 1 pound a week since mathematically I would be trying for <1,200 calories a day)

    1/11 - 172.8
    1/14 - 176.2 Carbs of course. Hope I have a better report on my weigh in day!
