    Successes/struggles this week: I can foresee a struggle to not go for the Christmas/New Years leftovers : chocolate, desserts full of cream and all things delicious and all that. Motivations to re-start running despite the awful weather... But I will lose those 37lbs this year! Comes Dec 31st I will be at 130lbs dang it!

    Successes/struggles this week: I have been very sick with the flu for about a week, which makes it difficult for me to work out... And the last month was a big challenge with all the celebrations, preparations for celebrations, and stressful work environment, which combined to make it difficult for me to exercise as much as I wanted and to weaken my ability to plan meals and eat well. Lots of stress eating! Then holiday eating... I'm pleased that I only gained a quarter of a pound! Back on track now, though still very sick. Hoping to kick it soon.

    Hi, All!

    This is a follow on from the December 2015 Weight Loss Challenge. It works the same way: You set your own goals, then weigh in each week. (Feel free to change the weigh-ins to suit your own schedule.) Everyone is welcome, no matter what your goals may be. You don't need to have done the December challenge to join in January. (In fact, you can join at any time.)

    You will copy the form below, and paste it in a new reply, adding your own information. Each week you will update in another new reply.

    So, here goes:

    I know from previous attempts at weight loss that I usually have a pretty big drop my first week or so. That is why I have an ambitious goal for this month.
