    I lost about 5 pounds in the first half of 2014 and managed to maintain the rest of the year - including the holidays (Yeah!). Need to be more disciplined this year. I'll report on Tuesday following my TOPS meetings.

    I'm not new to MFP but new to the boards. I leave alone w/my fur babies so need some motivation to get going. Joined the 100 mile challenge (http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/19993-100-mile-monthly-walking-challenges) and will join this to see if I can get motivated. Lost 3 lbs last month so feeling good about myself

    Hello again, everyone! This discussion is a continuation of my December 2014 Challenge! I wanted to take the challenge into the new year, seeing as how many of us (namely myself) may have fallen off the wagon and need to get back on for a fresh start. So here we go! Just come back on Thursday, January 1, and post your stats to join. Weigh-ins will be every Thursday, but feel free to alter the dates and choose your own weigh-in day of the week. Good luck guys and gals!
