after a completely awesome January with some great losses. What are your main goals for this month ?

I am hoping to go for a stone which is 14 lbs. If I don't get it, it's no biggy. but I'd love to be 17 stones by the end of feb, I'm currently at 17 stones 10lbs which is around 248lbs


Do your best, try and tell yourself your strong and you can do this, we're all here on this journey together, if you're feeling weak, then reach out to your mfp pals and say so! little words from us can make a massive difference, don't do it alone

    I am going on vacation to an all-inclusive (meals and drinks) resort this month. SO, my goal is to lose 4.2 lbs and/or not gain any lol.

    I'm aiming for 4lbs by end of Feb. My overall goal is 1lb/wk until the long weekend in May, maintenance until October and then back at it. I want to enjoy my Summer and not have to work too hard at this during those months. The scale hasn't moved down the last couple of weeks but it hasn't moved up either. I have exceeded my January goal by 1lb so I'm happy with that.:drinker:

    My goal is to log my food. I was doing so well and then I went over a couple days so I quit logging. :sad:

    I was trying for 1.5 lbs a week and I lowered it to 1 lb. I need a little wiggle room or I freak out.

    Still doing some cardio, but have added weight lifting to my gym time. Loving it. I

    1lb a week is reasonable ! I always do weights at the gym too, it's good to do a range of things I think. :flowerforyou:

    Hey thanks for the add!

    I just want to add that doing weights at first will put you a couple of pounds on, are you aware? it'll come off quickly enough though.

    You've done really well, I have been watching everyone. it's been a fantastic month ! :D

    Thanks for keeping this group going! It helps to see how others are doing "spreadsheet style" once a week. I use Friday as my second weigh in of the week. I weigh in for MFP on Monday or Tuesday. Anyhoo, I'm just happy to see a lot of people are committed for February! javascript:add_smiley('wink','post_body')

    I'm aiming for 8 pounds this month. A bit aggressive for me, but I have new found motivation and I really think it's possible. Even if I don't make it, at least I've tried!

    Good luck everyone!

    New goals for this month... gain 1 - 2 lbs. I found out last month that I am pregnant :) So far I have been able to maintain my current weight for the first two months, but today I was down 2 lbs. So by the end of this month (and the end of my 1st trimester) I would like to get back up at least a pound.

    Goal: Eat healthy, drink lots of water, remember to take my prenatal vitamin daily! and make sure to continue to do some light exercises

    6.5 lbs goal for Feb would take me down to 170 lb... a nice round figure

    I've GOT to stop sneaking nibbles @ naughty snacks and reduce the butter I take in my diet.

    Now that I'm a bit fitter I feel I should be able to exercise more frequently.


    Thanks for the support in this group and good luck to everyone for FEBRUARY

    ...Lets hope we all feel FAB @ the end of FEB!!!!!!
