    I'm not one for groups because I'm so erratic with my eating...but looking forward to finally getting it under control so I can drop these 20-25 lbs and then build up some muscle...or more muscle I should say. :bigsmile:

    I'm in. So much put back on over the Christmas festivities. Could be an uphill struggle, more with the exercise than the food. All encouragement gratefully accepted!

    (Hope it's ok to copy/paste at this point, but I'll lose it otherwise.)

    Can I join in too? I won't be able to weigh in until 8 Jan as I'm away from my weighing scales until then so I'd be a little late starting.

    I'll post all my stats on 8 Jan, but will post supporting things here from 1 Jan.

    So great to see you all chiming in! I'm looking forward to kicking it into high gear as I work to finally bust through this plateau. At one point in December my scale said 193.6, on another day it said 199. Yuck. Today it was 195.2, so as I finish a month of 'resting', I'm ready to really hit it hard.
