    I'm in! I am currently 179.4 and would like to be 170 before Valentine's Day. I will continue my meal plan, but make better, healthier choices and add more fresh fruits and vegetables. I will be more diligent with my exercise. I will remember to use my weights!

    Update: I am now 175.8 and am now shooting for 165 before Valentine's Day. I am still concentrating on my healthy eating and going to try each day to walk at least 5 minutes longer than I did the day before. So long as it doesn't reach 3 hours a day, I'm good. lol

    Well I am at 168, and don't think I will make that 165 mark in three days either. My exercise has slacked off some because of problems with my left hip/leg and all the cold, rainy, windy days we have had. I could have popped in a DVD, but I got lazy. At any rate, I am still eating right and had a fabulous visit with my surgeon and dietitian last week. I was told I have accomplished more in 4 months than most do in a year. (I started at 246, but was 218 the morning of my surgery--since my rny four months ago I have lost 50 pounds.) Will try harder with my exercise in the future!

    Measurements - 46 inches lost overall - that's 11 more inches during this challenge! Woot!
    Exercise - 45 min or more of daily exercise

    Overall not bad. I'm pretty proud of myself.

    Goal was achieved with room to spare. Current 146.4! I am only 1.4 pounds from my ticker goal, my first finish line and a normal BMI. Soon I need decide if I need to lose any vanity weight.

    2/14/13 goal 135

    1/3/13 weighed in at 149.7.
    1/10/13 weighed in at 147.50 loss of 2.20 pounds
    1/17/13 weighed in at 147 UGH only lost .50 pounds.
    1/23/13 weighed in at 145.7 loss of 1.30 pounds
    1/31/13 weighed in at 144 loss of 1.70 pounds.
    2/7/13 weighed in at 142.6 loss of 1.40 pounds

    2/14/13 weighed in at 142 loss of .60 pounds
    Didn't make the goal I wanted to. I am so close! Personal weight goal is between 130-140 but seems like these last few pounds aren't going away. I wonder how much my loose skin is weighing and if this is why and my body has found it's set point weight for my 5'4" height?
    Been sick with strep throat and missed work on Mon and Tues of this week but did get to the gym on Sunday but haven't been back since. I hope I can get there this weekend once I get over this sickness.

    Congrats to those that did make their V Day goals!
