I'm gunning for a program that will help me reduce 2.2 pounds every 10 days. This includes a combination of more greens, no fried, low carbs and loads of running and climbing. Tracking it through Fitbit and MFP. Any takers?

    I'm with you! Except for the running and climbing part. I will have to stick to indoor low impact exercises due to health issues. But 5 lbs in a month is exactly what I would like to lose! I will be following a low carb high protein diet. Let's do this!

    Game on. I'm weighing 167 lbs currently. My next weigh in would be on 31 Jan. Good luck. If you guys are on Fitbit, we could connect there too.

    I will do it. I bought a new scale and gained 5 pounds with it!! haha!! I guess the old scale sucked!

    I have fit bit, I am doing a low calorie diet, I have also been adding more vegetables (I am trying to get all recommended vitamins and minerals through food only), and running/speed walking every night.

    Let's report numbers at your own convenience, whatever works for you. The final tally can be done on 20 Feb. The good news is that all of us can be winners!!

    I just so happened to begin my weight loss/fitness journey on 1/20...so I feel like that's basically a sign that I should definitely join this challenge...right? :D

    My name is Whitney, and my starting weight is 223.4lb.

    I am tracking my calories to ensure I eat at a deficit, trying to consume much higher quality calories, and doing compound exercises with dumb bells for 30 minutes per day.

    Count me in! I'll plan to post my updated weight every Wednesday. And feel free to add me as a friend. :smile:

    Hi there. I'm in. My name is lacy and I'm 27. I started this journey on 1st Jan. So far I've lost 12.5 lbs in three weeks but this week I'm struggling. I don't want to go back and gain that weight so I'm in for losing 5lbs by 20th Feb. Do we just log losses on here? I weigh on Fridays.

    It's strange to see so many odd us struggling this week, me included. The first formal log is on Saturday so let's give the next 3 days our best push.
