    The Feb challenge was my first one. I may not have lost the 5lbs I wanted to but I did move into a smaller size and that to me is more satisfaction than a number on the scale! :)

    I did MFP two years ago and did well. I've kept it off, but wanted to go further. I tried another program, but it was just too generic. I plan to continue MFP for a maintenance program also.

    SW: 170.5
    CW: 170.5
    GW: 160.5

    I will probably reward myself with a pedicure or a new spring garment.
