    I will join in! I'm Julie.

    I am at my highest weight in almost ten years and honestly - it really snuck up on me in the last six months! So, I need to get that pesky ten back off!!!!! I am also training for a half marathon in April which makes it actually a bit more challenging for me because I get extra hungry when I run more.....

    Anyway

    Current weight: 150

    celiac so generally eat a lower carb type diet
    going to try to really restrict my alcohol to 0-3 glasses of red wine per week instead of the 5-6 I was drinking!
    no candy, sugar, ice cream, treats!

    We can all work together! :) (don't forget to "treat" yourself in ways other than food to reward yourself)

    I am in too... I started working out on 7th of this month and plan was to reduce 10lbs around 11th Feb. But sometimes I miss working out so hoping to reduce the same by end of Feb.

    This sounds great!

    Strengths: Tracked calories every day even when I knew I was going to blow my totals :)
    Weaknesses: Gave in to a craving for a Wendy's spicy chicken sandwich on a day I didn't have the calories to spare.
    Goals: Yoga twice this week, cardio every other day, keep tracking calories

    count me in too!!! :) I am using Isagenix products & just started to incorporate Creation's Garden products... upping my protein & monounsaturated fats, upping my raw veggies & continuing to change up my workouts weekly so my body breaks the plateau! I also need to jumpstart as I got a bit lax at the holidays & ate way too many easily accessible treats. :)

    Just reporting back.... doing really well so far. I've been sticking to my running plan which has me going 3-5 miles about 5 days a week. Sometimes I have one day with a longer run. I have been tracking my food in MFP too and I'm glad that I've stayed really close to 1,200 on average too. Even with a 4-5 mile run, I am lucky if I get a 1,800 burn a day so that is a plan that works for me so far. I'm shooting for 1-1.5 lbs per week loss while still having enough energy to run.

    I try to only weigh twice per week but last time on was 147.5 which was down 2.5 lbs from my starting weight (sure the was some water in there originally.)

    Have a great week everyone!
