    Hey everyone!! My name is Crystal. I just turned 40 last month. I started my journey again in October last year (2023) and lost around 13 lbs by Christmas. Got a little off track with the holidays, but I'm back on track now. Goals for me right now are to consume 1200 calories/day, watch my sugar intake and stick with around 70 carbs/day. It's so hard for me to do extremely low carb, but around 70 has been fairly easy for me. I feel so much better since I started this journey. A year long challenge sounds awesome! I'm a couple weeks late but I'll go ahead and post yesterday's weight (Jan 17th) since I did weigh and that will be my starting point. Good luck everyone! It's definitely inspiring to read your stories!

    SW 190 lbs (Oct. 2023)
    GW 140-145 (Hopefully by May, 2024)

    2024 Weekly Weigh-in Challenge

    Hi, this is my first time in this challenge and I'm very happy to be here! I'm 66 YO, 5' 2" and officially overweight (again). I've been through the yo-yo weight gain and loss too many times and it's not healthy. I gained 15 lbs in the last year and a half, and if I don't change my habits I'm headed for worse.

    My goal for 2024:
    to gradually lose the weight by changing the habits that hurt me and to learn how to integrate and maintain healthy eating habits for good.

    My goals for this month:
    * continue my exercise routine- which has been pretty good
    * eliminate evening snacking- which is my downfall
    * weigh every day- which I avoid and then gain
    * log in here every week on Monday so I can't pretend the weekend is "free"!


    * Starting weight: 146.5
Goal weight: around/under 142



    1/1: 146.6


    1/8: 142.6 


    1/15: 141.4


    1/22: 140.2 (a day early, we're away and traveling tomorrow)
    1/29

    Settling into a routine of losing about 1-1.2 lbs/wk which has been manageable with my routine.

    Start of challenge weight: 248lb
    Week 3 was rough! I am preparing for an upcoming vacation so my work schedule was crazy. Worked a ton of hours since I will be gone for a week at the end of this month. I tried to weigh everyday but my posting just didn’t happen. I keep a log of my weigh in on my phone though to try and keep me accountable. Weight fluctuated up and down all week, but at least I ended on an even keel from last week. Hopefully I can make a little more progress before vacation starts at the end of this week. There is no way I won’t add a pound or two while I am gone (just keeping it real!) so at this point I am hoping to minimize the damage!

    Hi all!

    I'm Michelle, 34, live in MN.
    My goals for January are to:

    -Lose 3lbs; i haven't been exercising much at all so that's prob not gonna happen 😅
    - log food daily ✔️
    - exercise at least once a week

    Starting weight is 153.2, current weight is 152.3!

    I tend to weigh myself every Sunday morning. Could anyone give any insight on what is the best time of day to weigh yourself? Is it a personal preference?

    Hello! I'm in my early 40s, and I live in the Northeastern USA. I've gained quite a bit of weight over the past few years, and I'd like to turn that trend around before it causes me any serious health problems. My primary goals for 2024 are to recover from a chronic injury and get back to a healthy (or at least healthier) weight by losing an average of 1-2 pounds per week.

    Jan 1: 216.7
    Jan 8: 212.3 (-4.4)
    Jan 15: 209.2 (-3.1)
    Jan 22: 214.5 (+5.3)
    Jan 29:

    Total change for year: -2.2
    Average change per week: -0.73

    Week 1 reflection: I was pretty flexible in week 1, with calorie deficits ranging from 295 to 865 per day, and averaging 670 per day. Math/science suggests that's enough to result in about 1.34 pounds of fat loss, so I'm sure most of my loss this week was just my body flushing out water. I expect the progress on the scale to slow down considerably from here.

    Week 2 reflection: I stayed flexible in week 2, with daily calorie deficits ranging from 395 to 816 and an average daily deficit of 648. This should equate to about a 1.3 pound loss, so I must still be losing water weight too. I have a few foodie friends visiting from out of town this coming Friday-Sunday, and I plan to eat at or above maintenance level with them before getting back on plan next Monday. So, I'm expecting the number on the scale to be higher next time I check in.

    Week 3 reflection: I experienced a spike on the scale after an indulgent weekend, which I expected. As of today (Jan 23), I'm already down 2+ pounds since yesterday, so I don't think I set myself back too badly. I'm sure I'll experience plenty of ups and downs this year, but I'm going to ride them out and stick with this.

    You'll get the most consistent numbers if you weigh yourself first thing in the morning, without any clothes, after using the bathroom.

    Needing some accountability so here I am! 42F/5.5"/149 lbs.

    My lowest weight was 136.6 in July and my first goal is to get back to that weight.
    Ultimate goal is 130 lbs.

    I don't have the healthiest relationship with food and get obsessed over what I eat and tracking makes it worse so I've decided to be kinder to myself by just eating more mindfully and getting in some form of daily exersise. I've also been doing IF (18:6) and it's really helping with some of the "food noise".
    I would like to weigh in weekly (Fridays) with everyone to keep track of results.

    Jan 5 - 149.2 Weight hasn't budged but definetly feel better, sleeping better and less bloating from IF
    Jan 12 - Too afraid to step on the scale. Signed up with a local weight loss center for help.
    Jan 19 - 147 Still IF, AF and sticking to my eating plan. Feeling good
    Jan 27 - 145.5 It was hard to stick with my plan this week but I did it. Had some wine and pasta last night so cravings have been satisfied and back on track today
    Jan 31
