I'm in. Been bouncing around the same 3-4 pounds since xmas. Only 7 to go . Would love to have this off by April.
Start weight 127 pounds. Feb goal 123 pounds. Excersise 5 days a week and NO snacking when I get home from work before dinner(my worst time)4 -
I think no F ups Feb sounds fun. After what I thought was a very strict and productive Jan I got on the scale this morning and.....no happy
. I aim to hit my step goal and 240 weekly activity minutes and stay within my calorie and carb goals (I am moderate low carb). Going on a big ski vacation next month and I can only hope my ski pants will fit. 3 -
That works for me. For 28 days I will go back to BPC for breakfast and stop having my handful of dark choc chips after dinner.4

30 min of exercise done for the day. On my way to closing my fitness rings for the day. Already tracked my BPC and what I am planning to eat for lunch.
Day one of new habits..3 -
Back in for another month! Going on vacation for a week this month. Can't wait. Lot's of walking, hiking and healthy eating planned. Spring is just around the corner!5

Changed the title and blurb.
Sprint begins NOW!
I'm going to be keeping every thing locked in. Working out hard to get these damn 5lb off. And making sure my weekends tame way the heck down.

I'm in--tracking everyday, exercise 5x/week, goal of dropping ten pounds in February. (But I'm counting this morning's 1 pound loss!) Need more water and more greens. Less almond butter and dark chocolate--I will not reward myself with food as I am not a dog.9
-
OK. I'll commit. Waaaah.
Walk 20 miles per week, 80 for the month. Speed to average greater than 3.5 mph. Food and weight are not a problem. Laziness is.
Never ever read anything that said a brisk walk is bad for your health.4 -
Okay my goals are:
-Do not weigh myself until March 1st.
-Keep my calories consistent!
-Work out with kettlebells, doing hiit at LEAST four times a week!
-One day at a time, break my evening snack habit.
-Drink 80 ounces of water per day.
Woo Hoo!
PLEASE hold me accountable, I'm so flighty it's ridiculous!
Also, taking any new friends that are interactive!!

YES!
I apparently still need to learn this after 2.5 years.

Check out BodyFit by Amy. I lurve her. She has a kb playlist.2 -
My goal will just be to keep on keeping on!
Feel like I'm doing good right now.....Just want to stick with everything the way I've been doing it. Carbs are under 20 g consistently (total carbs). Walking at lunch whenever I have time. Not snacking and eating mindlessly.
The only thing I would like to tighten up is my protein overage.....But have only been going over occasionally by 20 g or so, but would still like to get that back down.2 -

I'm in! January got slack towards the end...
I'm committing to logging more strictly, keeping carbs under 50g and drinking at least 1l of water a day3 -
February goals:
Similar to January....which is:
Maintain weight within +/- 5 lb.
Keep carbs in check. Under 50.
Keep taking collagen daily.
Get an outdoor walk or jog in at least once per week.
Stick with my strength training plan each week. (Currently Chalean Extreme)
Do one household chore each day. I am the worst at housekeeping and this is the goal I usually fail but we'll try again!

I love Chalean! I have several of her programs, including that one. I have gotten into the best shape of my life years ago with her Turbo Jam series. I would love to work back up to Chalean Extreme. I have a condition (very weird) in my feet that has derailed my exercise over the past few years, so not in the best shape of my life now. ;-). Her programs are great.
I have a chore app that I love called Tody. You can set schedules for chores and it will send you notifications. You check them off as you do them. It is very customizable so you can add the chores you want and at what schedule you want. I am the kind of person that can't stand apps to have red numbers on them, so it motivates me. Also, it keeps me from going months doing certain things. It is amazing how quickly time passes between doing the things I hate to do. My cat thanks me for changing her litter in a more timely fashion now!

What kind of collagen do you use? I've been taking marine collagen peptides in an attempt to help my joint out, but I struggle to remain consistent.1 -
Simple goal -> maintain ZC for the month of February.4

This is perfect. I'm one of those people who does well and is successful with low carb, and then life hits and I emotionally eat, and poof...40lbs heavier. Today is my first day back in the game and I'm super excited. I love the food, I love the way I feel when I eat whole...I'm determined to focus on the positive and but still remember how awful eating like crap makes me feel.
There will be tracking
There will be acknowledging all goals, not just weightloss (but I will be using the measuring tape not just the scale for losses)
Net carbs under 50g
Absolutely no cheating, no booze, I can handle strict for 28 days...it will be worth it!
Last spring/summer, I was a hermit and shied away from social engagements because I was embarrassed of my appearance. I refuse to spend another warm weather season sitting on the bench because I don't take proper care of myself. Woot Woot! I'm excited to be healthy and feel good again!

ME TOO! I got to the point where I would get irritated if my husband took pictures of me with the kids. He regularly will text pictures to the grand parents and I caught myself saying "make sure I'm not in the picture" constantly. To the point where my kids knew I didn't want to be in the picture. At 6 and 4 they shouldn't hear me saying that!
And I've been "on the wagon" for the last 2 weeks and at least the next 8 weeks. I thought it would kind of suck to not have Friday happy hours with friends, or a drink during play off foot ball but....it's been surprisingly easy!3
