I just want to ask if you’re being realistic with yourself? I understand that if you’re very large you’ll lose weight quicker or if you’ve just begun you weight loss trek, you’ll drop a lot of weight in the first few weeks. Different people lose at different speeds. However, something to remember is there are only 4 weeks in January so even if you lost 2 pounds a week, that’s only 8 pounds for the month. I’m not trying to be a naysayer, I want everyone to meet or exceed their goals. I just hate to see people set themselves up for disappointment because they were unable to achieve their goal. I've done it before and it sucks.
I don't know about everybody else, but my goal (13 lbs) is below my monthly average (15 lbs). Since I'm pretty satisfied with my loss rate and I understand as time goes by it tends to slow down, I'm choosing something that is satisfying, possible and not too stressful to do. I think everybody should find that middle ground as well0 -

I am excited to join this challenge. I lost 17 pounds last year and gained half of it back. Going to Disneyworld in February, so I'd love to lose a bunch before then!
