    First day at the gym since having my baby 2.5 weeks ago. 401 calories!! (20 mins treadmill, 15 mins stairs, 10 mins bike)

    Good for you! Lots of energy after having a baby. You sound like you're off to a great start.

    Well, I am going to have bow out of this challenge. I received a shocking Christmas present--I'm expecting baby #3! So my weight loss is on hold for now. I am hoping to only gain the 20lbs that I just lost. I'm definitely counting calories to keep me from overeating and gaining 40-45lbs that I gained with my first 2 pregnancies!

    Congradulations. There is another group for pregnant ladies who don't want to gain a lot of weight. If you are unable to find one, perhaps you can start one, or post a question about finding one and someone may respond. Good luck!

    Congratulations! Definitley still exercise. That will help alot. I lost 15lbs in my first trimester of my 3rd pregnancy and only gained 10lbs total....watermelon cravings helped, along with walking my kids to and from school every day.
  • Down 31.6lbs!!

    My husband leaves today for 5 months so keep me motivated guys!!

    And today I'm 1lb from my February 1st goal!

    I was wondering if there were any volunteers that would like to compile a list of losses each week for the members of the challenge? I did this on the last challenge I set and it kept me motivated. However, I am a busy trainee social worker going into a period of placement and exams so have little time free! Any takers?!

    I'm happy to! Do you have a list of everyone who has for sure signed up so far?

    Is it too late to join? I'd like to participate as well. My CW is 178.5 and my GW for the challenge is 170.

    Thanks so much!!
  • Hiya! I hope it isn't too late as I'd love to join - my starting weight is 212 lbs and I'd like to lose 10 lbs by Valentines day. I think this would be so useful to keep me motivated :)

    I'm doing a water challenge this week, 64oz minimum a day and a sodium challenge of 2000mg a day. I got terribly out of the habit of drinking water over the holidays and my sodium was probably through the roof, I can definitely feel it. I figure small steps are a good way to get back in the swing of things.
  • I am all the way in....

    I know that I am late with start up..But the goal is still doable. We actually have a Biggest Loser Challenge that start this week...


    Starting Weight 242lbs
    Goal Weight 227lbs (Valentines Day )

    Holy cow!

    I did the 20lb Christmas Challenge with this same group and after I completed it successfully I kinda fell off the wagon but it's only been a few days since my last check in and of course I want to start the Valentine's Day Challenge right away if not sooner! I'm so excited at the overwhelming response to participate in this challenge. Thanks to Maemae for taking on the daunting task of keeping all the goals in order. Please add my hat in the ring if you would!

    Heidi.....SW 187..... GW 172

    That's a 15lb challenge for V-day!

    I'd also like to add a fitness challenge and say that I'd like to be able to run a 12min mile for 3 miles by the end of the month!

    Good luck every one!

    woohoo...I've lost 2 pounds so far! 8 more to go!!! My goal is to drink more water and limit my sodas. I love my beer...but glad to say that I've not had a drink since Saturday. Which doesn't seem like much, but it was almost a ritual to drink a beer with the hubby at night. Hoping not to drink til our vacation to Disney at the end of January!

    Hope everyone is doing well!

    The other v-day challenges I'm doing have water challenges. So challenge yourself to get 8-10 glasses of water in every day this week!

    sounds like a good challenge...I like short term challanges as they keep me motivated especially with a weekly weigh in. Count me in.
