    Sounds good! I'm new to this whole website and am glad to have found a challenge that hasn't filled up or started already that I can't join. I have a total of around 60 pounds to loose, but think that 15 by Valentines Day is a great goal!

    Hi guys! Today's my weigh-in. I was 164.2 this morning, which is very high for me. I gained about 4 pounds this week! Yikes! I really need this challenge to get back in track. Because of this flux, I'm going to adjust my goal from 6 pounds to 8 pounds.

    Valentine's Day goal: 8 pounds

    Looks like this challenge is popular!

    I had success setting a personal weight loss goal between Nov. 1 and Jan. 1 so for this challenge, I'd like to lose 15lbs (a little less than 2lbs per week)! Although I do go to the gym for both cardio and strength training, I am thinking about starting a workout program like P90x or Insanity to get me those last few pounds to my goal weight. I am 24 and I am so excited to be quickly approaching a healthy weight for the first time in my adult life!!!!

    So, this is my first challenge - I had a stupid plateau for the whole month of November where I just gained and lost the same silly pound.... December has proven to be much better - I've been loosing a pound a week, which is what I'm aiming for - but I've been wondering - what are you gals doing to "step it up" for the challenge? I stay within my calories 90% of the time and do zumba several times a week... any ideas for ways to make these weeks count?

    I am planning to work out a lot and portion control. I try to cut out sweets but that is kinda hard but I will try even harder! I recently learned that legs are the biggest fat burners in the body, I totally didn't know this before. But it makes sense! So, lots of squats, running, jumping jacks, etc.

    Staying within cals with zumba will work I am sure.

    Hi,
    I've lost quite quickly this week i think mostly because I've been sick. The doctors have told me that I mustn't exercise for the next month so reaching my goal even though its only 5lbs away is going to be interesting.

    Valentine's Day goal: 150lb
