    Struggles: I didn't resist some poor food choices and missed 2 workout days. I'm not beating myself up over this however. I've had very few weeks where I've gained in this weight loss journey. I think they are to be expected and learned from.

    I started a new one. It's called, not surprisingly, "February 2016 Weight Loss Challenge".

    New Goal Weight (16th February): 178

    1st January: 182.9

    1st February:

    Weight lost/gained this week: -0.3
    Weight lost/gained this month: -3

    Successes/struggles this week: I missed a couple weigh-ins, but I still kept track of my weight. I've been hovering around 179-180 all month, and I'm fine with that. I'm at almost 20 lbs lost since August. I'd say that's something to be happy about. In a couple weeks (as long as I don't go crazy with my food), I know the 180s will be a thing of the past.

    As always, looking forward to next month!

    Weight lost/gained this week: 0.7kg

    Successes/struggles this week: Really liking trend weight app, because I don't lose it when my weight goes up for some days, as it's trending down overall.
    I did not make my goal, however I had a good going calorie deficit each day (about 600cal) and am losing 0.6 a week. I like it that the maths is lining up.

    Sorry, guys - I have been ill, so offline for several days. Glad to see that a new challenge thread is up, though!

    @SeriouslySta no pressure at all but I was just wondering if you are going to do a February challenge. If not, no problem, I'll jump in another one. Just checking because I like this format and don't want to overcommit.

    A new one has been started - but not by me, alas! I've been ill, so it completely slipped past me until the wee hours.) Hope you will join me there!
