January 1- 31st: This challenge will be our first monthly challenge as a group!! Time to focus on our plan to get us the results we want! The challenge consists of setting your own personal goal for the month of January, tell us what your plan of action is to aid in achieving that goal, your starting weight at the beginning of the challenge and your goal weight. If you don't feel comfortable posting your weight, you can simply tell us how much your weightloss goal is for the challenge. I will continue to post a weekly challenge and would love for you guys to let me know of any ideas you may have. I look forward to seeing everyone's achievement plan!!

    My goal this month is to lose 8lbs.

    I'm going to do this by reaching 10,000 steps daily.
    Doing c25k, and hopefully
    incorporating strength training somewhere in the middle of the month.

    I stuck to this as closely as possible. I did eat out twice, but it was subway and never went over ranges. I did change up my workout routine and up my calories to see if that would work, and things have seemed to pick back up!!
