Hey, just had my 6week check and I've lost 9 lb and 1 1/2 inch on my waist

wondering how everyone else is getting on?

Are you ahead or behind your target?

    good for you thats awsome, obviously you are doing something right...keep up the good work. i am sorry to say i am not being sucessful with my new years resolution.. i am struggling to lose that 13 pounds gained during the month of December celebrating, down 5 but thought i would have been further along by now.

    Well done. Haven't done measurements yet, but 11lbs off which I'm very pleased with!

    I have noticed that I'm gradually allowing more 'relaxed' days though....must keep an eye on that and make sure I don't go too far! Still logging everything, even on those days, and being appalled at myself when I'm 1000 over for a day helps - I just try to make sure I'm on target for the week as a whole - seems to be working so far!

    Hi. I also started similar time to you so I have been on here 6 weeks.

    Body fat down 4% which was my main goal. Waist down 2.5 inches hips are the same. Weigh in tomorrow morning but baking biscuits with my daughter right now so self control will be a challenge today. 10lb loss so
    far and should be another 1lb this week.

    Well done on your progress so far looking forward to your next check in

    i started (again) with the new year as well. as of friday 2/8/13, i have lost 19.8#, 13 total inches, and 3.5% body fat. i am starting to feel better about myself, can move alittle bit easier and am having less pain.

    everyone on this thread so far is doing GREAT! i have seen quite a few people on MFP since the beginning of the year really working hard to meet their goals and doing a wonderful job! :)

    i am always happy to have new friends and try to be a good motivater. if anyone would like to add me feel free. :)
