Happy New Year. Welcome to the Monthly Challenge for January. Following are the Sunday weigh-in days for January 2022. We typically post our weight on Sunday, however, feel free to post comments, support, and encouragement whenever. We also have a companion spreadsheet to post and track your progress for the year. I’ll post a link to the spreadsheet on January 1st, 2022.

    Here we go again! I've been a member of this monthly challenge since 2018. You'd think I would have reached my fitness goals in that time? Actually, I have had some great success thanks to the help I've received on this forum over the years. Although I'm not where I want to be yet, I'm thinking that 2022 may just be my year. I will post here often and know I will gain support from my old friends here and encouragement from new friends.

    I'll see you again on January 1st with my start weight for 2022. I <3 MFP and this monthly Challenge Group. Let's make 2022 the best year ever!

    Here is a link to the companion spreadsheet some people in this group like to use to track progress for the year. Feel free to pick a column at the end of the spreadsheet and add your information.

    Happy New Year! I’m ready to leave 2021 behind and start this year looking for victories both on and off the scale. Typically, in the first month of the year, I have success with weight loss on my scale. Of course, I want to share that success with you on this forum. However, in 2022, I want to focus more on Non-Scale Victories (NSV).

    My first NSV this new year is that I’ve convinced my wife to join me in 100 days of clean keto. We’ve got weights, measurements, charts, and each other ready to go this first day of 2022. I’m confident with her support we will have lots of NSVs to report on this forum.

    I’m also looking forward to hearing about your success. I thrive on encouragement and motivation I hear on this Monthly Challenge. Let’s all support each other and make 2022 the best!

    Feeling the same way... so I've somehow got to somehow do things differently. Learn from the mistakes I've made in the past... one being living with my mom... yikes, I'm going to do that again in the summer. Late night snacking... somehow be able to lock myself away from food after 10pm, and generally allowing carbs to sneak in, which begins that perpetual craving to replenish glucose in my bloodstream.

    This is my first official weigh-in day for this challenge, Sunday, Jan 2, 2022. I know it seems silly to weigh-in after just one day into the new year??? But, I’m excited to record a loss after one whole day in a row of being keto clean. Ha Ha!

    Seriously, my wife has joined me in an effort to stay keto clean for the first 100 days of this year. We tried Keto-ish for quite a while now. Keto-ish hasn’t work for us. In fact, in last year I fluctuated in weight from a high of 190.4 to a low of 172.2.

    Now after only 2 days of being keto clean, the keto whoosh has begun and I’ve shed 3 pounds. In addition, I can say I feel better, and I know I’ve slept better the past two nights. I fear this sounds like the rants of an optimist who has caught keto fever. Could be? Hopefully, my fever will last at least 100 days this year.

    Here I go. Finally actually keto again instead of just low-carb. I've done a lot of loosey goosey messing around since covid ruined our lives but I know what I need to do to get this weight off. 20lbs up. The heaviest I've been in 7 years. Ugh. Oh well. Just gotta do the thing. :triumph:

    You and I are same-same buddies. You have been Loosey Goosey and I have Keto-ish for too long. I'm trying to go for 100 days of clean keto and logging it here on MFP. I've already done two days in a row :* . I know it is an aggressive goal, but like you, I need to stick with what I know works. We can do this buddy.

    Joining! I really need to stop this slow spiral, which became a fast spiral. Pandemic left me with 20 extra pounds on top of the 20 I had to lose.

    I know what to do. Just gotta do it and stay consistent. I support all of you! Let’s do it.

    Hope it's not too late to start this challenge. I am 36 years old living in Canada. I don't have any friends that workout so I find motivation challenging. I'm hoping this will help.
