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!

Struggles or successes of your week: PMS is looming, so I imagine the small loss is due to some bloating and hopefully I'll have a number that reflects my hard work next week!
Note about dates: I don't get to weigh myself first thing in the morning on weekdays because our scale is located in the master bathroom which has a very loud fan and my better half is still asleep when I leave for work, so I'll have to stick to weekend weigh-ins for accurate numbers!0 -

Height: 5'5"
Starting Weight (1/4): 139.8 (I thought it was 138.9, a bit of dyslexia I guess)

1/25:
Loss/Gain for the week: -0.6lbs
Loss/Gain for the month so far: 0.6lbs
Struggles/Successes for your week: Kind of disappointed in my small loss. I had assumed that a large percentage of my holiday gain would be water weight/TOM bloating, but I guess I was wrong I've been pretty diligent about caloric intake with the exception of Friday/Saturday where I stopped logging and was winging it, food-wise.
That being said, a loss is a loss, and I'll take it. Next week I'll be sure to focus more on working out every evening and not binging during the weekend.
You are all amazing!0 -

Struggles or successes of your week:
Not a good week for working out. It was not my regular routine. I worked out Monday, and Friday evening. To make up for not working out enough, I did a super work out yesterday. 15 mins elliptical, 20 weight training circuit, 55 mins spin class!
But overall very happy with the 2 pounds lost.
5 More pounds to go for January!! At my pace I might hit 150 pounds by the end of the month!!0 -
I know it is the middle of the month, but I would like to join this if just to help each other with accountability.

Struggles or successes of your week: I'm struggling to stay on track, especially after gaining a pound this week. Exercise is not an issue, but late-night eating throws me 2000+ calories over my goal every day and I can't make myself stop. I know all the things I should/can do; it's just will-power... Disappointed at this point.0 -

I don't know how to enter wt to my first entre can someone help?
Nice to see people are logging in. I lose 2 lbs since the first, but none this week. I need to fine tune the calorie type as well as amt. 1600 is too many even with 5 days at the gym. Still encouraged now I know what didn't work. If you are in this same boat Try Try again!0 -
