    I gained 6 pounds over Dec (between holiday parties, several days at in-laws and several days at my parents). Hoping to lose those 6 pounds in January and continue the weightloss after.

    Hey I'm writing from Ethiopia and need some motivation and help to loose weight. I don't currently have a scale, but there is one in my town I can use. I hope to buy a scale in the next week or so. Is anyone also interested in tracking total inches(TI) Lost/gained?

    Hi there. I see that your goal weight for this month is 41lbs less than you weight today. I think you should aim for a lower loss, since hardly anybody can lose more than 20lbs per month (most weight loss programs tops at 2lbs/week). Since, by the looks of your profile, you're just starting losing weight, I think you should settle for 10lbs this month, tops. I don't mean to be a downer, but if you aim too high, you might get frustrated more easily and abandon the program as a result.

    Slow and steady one goes far :smiley:
