    I'm in! I'll be back Saturday to post my stats. Thanks!

    I can't say the weather affects my ability to work out. I work out in my home, and I live in Los Angeles. So I'm pretty much set whichever way I go! :-)

    Please count me in! Should, in reality, be a attainable goal if I stick to the plan.

    I'll weigh on the 1st.

    In Alberta, and we have had a lot, a lot, of snow. We had warm weather which only melted some of the snow, and then it got cold again; therefore, now we are dealing with very icy pavements and roads. Very hard to get walk safely. I have noticed my walking had been cut down considerably because of the conditions. Waiting, and waiting for Spring!

    Good luck to everyone!

    Lost a little over 6 lbs in January - Great start to the year! Bring it on, February! I'll be back where I was 2 years ago when I start MFP (put back about 10 lbs over 2 years)

    For Fun: What has been the most interesting part of the weather for you and how does it affect your ability to exercise?

    Northern Colorado has a habit of being absolutely fabulous one day, and a complete disaster the next! I tend to stick to the gym for the winter months. There is no way I'm going to be out on a bike with ice and snow and winter drivers! I do spinning classes and strength training at the gym, and some strength training at home with free weights. I've been working on my plank the last month - not so awesome. I know if I don't keep up the pace in the winter months - whatever it takes - then I won't be ready to hit the road in the Spring (when it finally gets here!)

    Count me in too! I started on MFP years ago, and had some good success with it. I started at 132kg, and got down as low as 115kg. Various things happened though, and I had a baby last September. I'm now at 133kg, and it makes me really sad because I'm finding I can't get down on the floor to play with my son. I said that this year, I'm really going to get myself fit and healthy. I owe it to my son, my husband and myself. I want to have a long and active life with my family, and I want to set a good example of healthy active living for my baby. I can no longer keep letting myself give up. By this time next year, I'm going to be a fit mum, with cool running shoes, who doens't dread the summer because she can't wear cute shorts and dresses and swimsuits. I'm going to embrace everything, and really live the way I want to. But to start with - February. I'll convert my kg weight and goals to lbs so as to keep in line with everyone here. Also, I'd love some more friends to motivate and help keep me motivated, so if you're in the same boat, hit me up! :)

    SW: (Starting weight) 293
    CW: (Current weight) 293
    GW: (Goal weight for the month) 275

    I know this look like a lot of weight to lose in one month, but I've found in the past that when I've started sticking to my calories properly, the first few kgs go quickly, so I don't want to set myself a goal that will be acheived in that first round of water weight loss. This is the month it all really begins for me!

    If I can make that, I'll be within sight of onderland! I'm feeling very determined at the moment (hope it lasts!).

    Good luck to everyone, we can do it!

    In! I've just started my weight loss attempt (again), so this will help me to keep going after I feel like it's too much!

    SW: 174lbs
    CW: 171.8 lbs
    GW (for Feb): 165 lbs

    Um...won't really comment on the weather. Southern California natives usually get eye rolls from the rest of country if we complain. :wink:

    In!

    I weighed myself this morning and doubt it will change much as of tomorrow :)

    SW: (This round anyway lol) 155lbs
    CW: 150.6lbs
    GW (for feb) 145lbs

    My actual goal weight is 140 so I might not be able to get 5 pounds lost in feb due to only having 10 pounds to go, but we'll see!

    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.
