    I can't believe it, I lose eight over Christmas and then manage to put it back on straight after. It seems my head doesn't like my weight being around 68kg!! But I will get lower in the end. It might just take a bit longer...

    Well, it doesn't look like I'll be losing any weight before I leave for Mexico on Saturday. :laugh: No worries. As long as I can maintain over the weekend and not come back heavier I'll be okay. I know how to play this game. Eat at a moderate deficit for the next few days (500 calorie +), then any surplus I have the five days I'm on vacay should be absorbed. Luckily, I expect to be pretty active and vow to drink mostly mojitos instead of margaritas.:drinker:

    I will stay in this challenge because I like being liable, but If I can drop to 128 lbs I will be happy.


    ETA: screwed up the quote.

    Just for fun: What major exercise goal do you have for 2014 and how will it impact your weight?
    - My goal really isn't necessarily exercise oriented. My husband just lost 37lbs in a little over 3 months just by eating less calories, drinking A LOT more water, and by cutting his soda consumption by 99%. My goal is to weigh less than him. He's 6'2 and 182lbs. I'm 5'3 and 182.6lbs. That's not right! His getting healthy and losing weight during the time that I "dropped out" made me realize that I needed to get back on the wagon. I'm embarrassed by the fact that we weigh the same and he's about a foot taller than me! Yes, exercise is going to be in my regimen, but I really need to get back to logging what I eat.

    We can do this! I can't wait to see everyone's results!

    I can't believe I lost any weight this week. I overate so badly on Saturday my stomach hurt for half the night and I hardly got any sleep. :( Too much food, too rich. I'm not used to it any more. I'm doing better now.

    Way to go, Eli716! Excellent start! :)
