    Ok, I want to do this but have no intention of posting my starting weight... I am clinically obese, that's all you need to know really, and when I lose I will post that success.

    Started January off wanting to walk 5 minutes on my treadmill everyday. This is where I was! Once I got going, I liked it. Lost 26 pounds, obviously not all fat. LOL!
    Started February off wanting to do 60 miles and I made it... Lost 9 pounds. ( pretty reasonable for 28 days I think)

    sw: way to high
    cw: 35 pounds less than I was Jan.1st.,2014
    1st gw: 42 pounds away... for March my goal is 10 pounds. (it could happen)

    Goals for March
    1. Walk 75 miles in 31 days... I go slow, but I go! (pace improvements 2.5 -3.0)
    2. LOG all food consumed.
    3. Get water in me daily.
    4. Keep eye on sodium in food.
    5. Get 75 miles in, no matter what!
    6. Stretch before and after walking. (Seems like an odd goal I realize, but I don't do it with regularity.)

    If you are just dying to know what I actually weigh, inbox me. LOL! I will tell you... but I will call you nosy!:flowerforyou:

    Not sure why I can't get into my original post to add info like everybody else, but down 1.2 pounds this week! I have a cold this week and missed walking 3 days! Not great!

    CW: 168.6
    GW: 160 may be a stretch

    Fitness goals: Finish off Phase 3 of P90X not skipping a workout.

    3/8: 166.6
    3/15: 166.6
    3/22:
    3/31:

    Rough first half of the week, only to come back down after a strong finish. Missed some of my P90X workouts at the beginning of the week and my results suffered. Got back on track Thursday though. For me exercise seems to be the key.

    1 day late but count me in:
    I'm 44 years old, menopausal, I try to do a variety of exercise (zumba, bollywood, running for cardio - trying to get better about doing weights)

    SW: (Starting weight) 177
    CW: (Current weight) 174.5 (I just got my fitbit and started last week)
    GW: (Goal weight for the month) 169
    I know it's only 5 lbs - not very ambitous but for me slow and steady is more realistic.

    Behavioral Goals this month: continue to log food daily, increase exercise to 5 days/ week, strength training at lest 1 day/ week, and sleep a minimum of 6 hours a night, exercise enough most days that I can safely eat 1500 calories (instead of only 1200 which is ridiculous!)

    I am also training for a mud run April 24 so by the end of the month i would like to be able to do at least 2 unassisted pull ups. right now I can only do the kind on the machine that subtracts weight from your body.


    Weigh in Dates:
    3/01 Starting weight 174.5
    3/08
    3/15
    3/22
    3/29
    3/31-175 but I lost 2 inches so.....Total weight lost:

    3/31-175 but I lost 2 inches so.....not a total failure since inches are more important to me than lbs. now I need to loose the fat that is on top of the muscles I'm building

    Behavioral goals:
    exercise at least 5 days/week: check (5-6 days most weeks)
    strength training at least 1x/week - ummm some weeks I did it 2 days but there was one week I didn't to strength at all so prefer cardio.
    pull ups: not there yet but have worked arms and back quite a bit.
    sleep - um - definitely not there yet (like tonight up late doing taxes)
