    I didn't lose 10 this month, but I am ok with that. I ate healthy and exercised regularly, which is what is really important.

    I really messed up! Not only did I manage to gain 2 pounds in the last two days, I managed to gain them even though I burned almost 1500 calories on Saturday alone on a 6 1/2 hour bike ride! Biking really revs up my appetite.

    1/8/11: 187.5 (2.5 lbs )
    1/15/11: 185.5 (2 lbs)
    1/22/11: 185.5 (NOTHING!)
    1/29/11: 185.5
    1/31/11: 184.5
    Goal weight by January 31, 2011: 179

    Didnt reach my goal...but 5.5 is better than 0. I had a rough month, being sick with a bad cold made it hard for me to keep up with exercising. And not exercising made me go over my calories ALOT! NO MORE EXCUSES! I decided to make a fresh start for Feb, I went to Vitamin World yesterday and bought:
    1. Digestive Cleanse & Probiotic Replenisher (28 day program, 14 for the cleanse and 14 for the replenisher, however he highly recommended that I countinue with the replenisher after the 28 days)
    2. Fibrolean - this is all natural and is used to help promote fullness....which is where I really need help. I am normally fine when I am by myself, but once my husband gets home from work, its like I am starving!!!
    Anyway, I will keep you updated and let you know how its working. Its not supposed to be a mircle diet or anything, just some all natural assistance to help get back to where I belong.
    Looking forward to a Feb challenge!
  • Well today is the 31st so I thought I would kick off the final weigh ins for the month. I have dropped an amazing 3 pounds in two days - sounds a lot but I think I have been holding a lot of water and I've suddenly dropped it. So the figures then...

    Lots of luck everyone for your weigh ins. I am up for doing this in February. Stephanie... if you have loads on I can start a group and get the ball rolling but don't want to step on your toes!



    I weighed in today and the amount is 211!!!! I lost 7 lbs this month. I can just feel the 199'S coming soon. I had internet trouble this weekend. I would absolutely love it if you started a February group. I would love to join it. I am gonna be busy for the next couple of weeks and dont think I will be able to start/run a group. I think you will be a great team leader. Let us know what it will be called so we can find it on here, thanks so much :)

    Hey everyone,

    So glad that other people are up for a February challenge! I really want to keep the momentum going.

    I have posted it here http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/165255-lose-10-pounds-in-february-you-bet-we-can and it is called "Lose 10 pounds in February? You bet we can!!!!" Let me know if you have any problems finding it.

    I know it says 10 pounds and February is a short month but I wanted to stretch us. Don't stress if you want to lose 7, 8, 9 pounds - will be good to have you regardless.

    And Stephanie... would be lovely to have you on board even if you are busy!!! You've been a super star in December and January and I wouldn't have lost the 15 or so pounds since the beginning of December without you. Big love from London!
