Well January went well for me for the first 3 weeks and then I messed up the last week and gained back the couple lbs I had lost in January. I will do better in February and would like to lose at least 6 lbs lost to get under 220 lbs and another inch off my waist????

Here are my stats:

SW: 244.2 lbs
CW: 225.0 lbs
GW (Feb 28): 219.0 lbs
Current waist: 35.0"
Goal waist: 34.0"

Feb 1: 225.0 lbs

January was a pretty good month for me - I stayed at 1200 net calories and used my treadmill almost every day! By doing this I was able to lose 10.6 lbs!! This month I wanted to "step it up" a bit so I am started Shaun T's T25. I am hoping to lose at least the same as I did in January as this program is pretty intense. My goal is to work a little harder each month so I do not see my usual plateau - I get to about 170 and its hard to break that barrier to get into the 160's - when that happens I usually lose my motivation!

10.6 DOWN - currently 180.2
40.2 to go - GOAL 140!

Hi- still alive and kicking. Lost 12 pounds in the past 5 weeks since starting. This month I'm focusing on upping exercise.:drinker:

After 2 weeks of calorie counting (1230 allowance) and swimming every weekday lost not a sausage! And I do Pilates twice a week. I'm Gutted! I feel better for my swims though, and my other half and I have now started the 5:2 so perhaps that will kick-start some loss of poundage. Am not sure whether I should eat back the 280 cals burned from swimming - some days I do and some I don't. Next weigh-in is Saturday so fingers-crossed for a better result.

Last time I checked in I was down 10.6 lbs at the end of January - right now I am currently down 14 lbs! I started T25 and after week 1 and some horrible weather here in Missouri I ended up with a sinus infection that made it nearly impossible to have to energy to put into these workouts - I am starting over with week 1 today and I am hoping to lose 10lbs in the first 4 weeks on this program.
