    Sounds like a good starting place. I had lost over ten pounds, but gained 5 back. Need to get things turned around and get back to my good eating habits and daily walking. Let's go and get fit in '15!

    Thank you for starting this challenge. It's a great way to have a goal for the next month. Please count me in! I just joined MFP on Christmas Day (I got a Fitbit for Christmas and was setting that up and found MFP!) and I love this site so far. I have a LOT of weight to lose and sometimes feel down about what a long road I have ahead of me. I'm hoping the weight comes off a bit quicker the first month. It would be really exciting to end this challenge being under 300 pounds so my goal will be a bit lofty, in order to get to 299.

  • This is Dee again. Could I get some friends from this group to help me stay on track? Please send me a friend request. Thanks all
  • I'm in, I think this will actually force me to do it when I know people are doing it with me and reading my progress! Plus if I have a rant at least someone else who is trying is listening.

    This might be the motivation I need to get the last 7lbs off...Even though I fully expect to be still losing in February. Not my first rodeo, the last 10lbs don't just fall off...

    I'm in! I have never reached my goal weight because I get frustrated and give up when the weight doesn't come off as quickly as I'd like! Now I'm 14 pounds heavier than I was this time last year AND that much further from my goal weight. I hope this challenge will help me stay motivated to finally reach my goal weight!
