Hi Everyone

This is a discussion where everyone can set their own goals for February and weigh in whatever day of the week.

The aim is that by posting your goal here and how you are progressing that you feel accountable to keep doing well!

It is just a bit of friendly motivation so I hope you all join in for February.

Good luck everyone!

    Hey! I'm pretty new to this whole thing, so I was just wondering whether 6.8 kg in one month is doable? That would be a dream! I've got a really big occasion in march, but I wanted to know if I'm just setting myself up for disappointment if I aim for the same!

    @bluclu1 it completely depends what you weigh at the moment but it does sound quite a lot. I believe the standard people aim for is about 3kg a month and everyone twerks it slightly to suit them.

    Starting weight Oct 2016 - 67kg
    Weight now Feb 1st 2017 - 63.5kg
    February Goal - 62kg
    Ultimate goal - 59-60kg

    I'm finding it difficult to lose anything so I'm aiming low, I'll do it slowly and gradually. I think it works better for me that way. Even if it's just a kilo a month.
    At least I've managed to keep the little I've lost off so even during the holidays when I went over my calorie max often and exercised less, I didn't gain too much back. I thank this app for that!
    It means that when I have off days and sink into chocolate and pizza I know that I don't have to throw in the towel and think I might as well just give up. It's easier to get back on track and also easier to not go too far when I allow myself treats.
    I'm happy to add friends on here if anyone is interested and in a similar position :)

    Yeah I'm going slowly and gently too, about a 1lb a week, sometimes only half is fine as I'm focussing on building muscle and fitness primarily.

    28/01/2017: 134lbs

    Target for 25/02/2017: 130lbs
    Ultimate goal: 125lbs

    Shoo - going to give it a good go and say that I would like to get to gym at least 3 times a week for weights (my cardio is taken care of, as I walk quite far every morning with my dogs and will do some intervals before doing weights on those days) - I would like to be kept on track with that.
    Weight-wise, I am currently 140, would like to get down to 135/136 by the end of Feb.
    I think it's possible if I stick to it with passion.

    I started my MFP journey December 2014. I’ve noticed this group in the recommended list. I have waited until my weight was back to a normal BMI to join. Happy to finally be here. :)

    My ideal goal is back down between 118 - 122. My 50th birthday is this Sunday, 02/05. So I have to let that go and set my sights on week by week, month by month to reach my goal. Also - chainging up my exercise. Dropping some dance classes after a performance 02/14 that will allow me to get more cardio in.

    Please kick me if you don't see me post - log food / exercise!
