February Challenge!

Hi everyone!! I need a little extra motivation!! I am having a hard time keeping up with my workouts and logging my food, so I am challenging myself. I currently weigh 213lbs, and haven't been under 200lbs in a few years. So my challenge is to lose 15lbs by the end of February, and get to my first goal! Anyone else out there want to challenge themselves? I am going to start tomorrow 1-30-11 because Sunday is a good weigh in date for me, and will weigh in every Sunday till the end of February. If you would like to join me, set a goal and add me as I friend!!! I would love the help and motivation, and would do the same for you! :happy:

    OK I am in...I have been on a plateau (well, except for when I went up a bit over Christmas, and then back down to where I was before Christmas. I am at 149 and would really like to be at 145 or below by the end of February. That doesn't sound like much, but I've been stuck right around the 150 mark for A LONG TIME. I know it gets harder, as you get closer to goal, so I need this challenge!!
  • im in!!! sounds like a great challenge i am currently 255 and i would like to be down 20 pounds by the end of february so 235 is my goal weight for the end of february!! :)

    Count me in too!! I have just restarted a day ago, so the Febuary Challenge is a great way to get it all happening again for me! Im currently at 66.7kg (147 pounds) and so my goal is to lose and never get back 4kg (8/9 pounds) by the end of Feb. As long as I keep having fun Ill keep doing what I'm doing!

    Count me in! I started off great at the beginning of January but have let myself get lax already! I am scheduled for laparoscopic surgery on Feb 4 and expect to be off work for 2 weeks. I don't want that to be an excuse to let me get lazy about losing weight! I may not be able to exercise for a few days, but there is NO reason why I can't eat healthy! I have lost 6 lbs so far, I would love to have 15 off by the end of February, that's another 9 lbs. Any more than that would be fabulous, but 15 would be a great way for me to really be back on track to stay!
