    That looks better written down than I've been feeling about it - a solid 2lbs a week, only 1 more til I've achieved the challenge and a doable if stretching 3 to my own goal. I am going to go over my calorie limit tonight but will do it mindfully and balance it out over the next week.

    How's your goal looking? If it's close - well done you! If it's not quite in sight at the moment, little steps will get you there - just keep going and it's only a matter of time :)

    Wooohooo!!

    Been sticking to an average of 1500-1700 net calories and exercising at least 3 times a week for 30 minutes by walking or on my stationary bike. Now I want to lose more for the end of Feb!
    Everyone is doing well, keep up the good work :)

    special note: I met my goal for February TODAY, so despite the fact that it's not saturday we normally record our weight, i'm jotting it down. Thanks for keeping me motivated, everyone!

    Total weight lost: 7.8 lbs.

    Since Wednesday the weight has been up by 1+ lbs., and I am so afraid to find out tomorrow that my weight remains up high.... Feeling discouraged a little.... Possibly a little hungry as well...:grumble:

    Okay, time to start working out and kick these goals into high gear! My daughter turned me on to a new snack last night, avocado pieces drizzled with salsa, Yum! Thanks, Lynnette. Snacking seems to be my worst enemy, so it's great when I can find something that's healthy and not too counter productive.

    My favourite thing is grilling avocado then mashing it up with a bit of light salad cream (or light mayo) and black pepper. Best. Thing. EVER.

    It's been a slow couple weeks for me. :sad: I've switched up my running routine and diet.

    2/1 -217 [Previous week, I was 219. I've been consistently losing 2lbs a week since mid Jan]
    2/8 - 215
    2/15 - 214
    2/22 - 213.5 [I've been hovering at 213.5 and 212.5 ALL week. Sort of wish the scale would just read a flat 212lbs lol]

    I love spring and summer...some fall but winter drags me down. I love walking outside after work and on weekends, but the sun is already setting by the time I get home in winter time, and I don't walk by myself when it's dark outside. Give me sunshine and warm weather.
