    Im in. I have a bet with a co worker that I will be 170lbs by January 30 when we meet for our annual sales conference. I hope to lose the weight with cardio, hundred pushups and calorie counting.

    Starting Weight on January 1, 2011: 156 (I'll have to edit this)
    Goal weight by January 31, 2011 (can be whatever you want, with a min of 10 lbs): 146 Holy cow! nice!
    What is your exercise plan?: P90X baby!
    Are you going to do a specific diet?: No. I need to be though. I plan to cut out fried foods and refined sugar (and all desserts) completely + focus on getting enough water for sure.
    What is your biggest motivation to lose the weight?: I want to look good in order to feel good. I notice I am pissed all the time when I eat crappy food. I am not as loving and with a servant attitude when I am busy berating myself for having that 2nd piece of pie. Plus! no energy and all that jazz. These are my motivations. Fuel the machine with the proper fuel! Don't put junk in my trunk because the only one who's hauling it is ME!

    Ooooh this sounds good to me :)

    Starting Weight on January 1, 2011: Don't know yet, but I'm guessing 203
    Goal weight by January 31, 2011: 193
    Exercise Plan: Some form of exercise EVERY DAY. Get to the gym 4 days a week.
    Diet Plan: 1500 calories a day. Limiting my "cheat" calories or I like to call them my chocolate calories to less than 200 a day (as recommended by my nutritionist, I'm a frickin' sweets *kitten*!)
    My Motivation: To start this year off right!!! I have chronic kidney disease and the only thing I can do at this point is lose weight, limit high meat protein dishes, and take some of the strain on my kidneys (from this excess weight!).

    I've been dieting since July and have lost 18 pounds. While I'm proud of this because I know I will never gain those pounds back, this has been a very LONG and sometimes discouraging journey.

    Good Luck ALL and here is to a healthy and happy new year!!
