    Can I please join? I'm new to the community here but not new to MyFitnessPal. I gained around 85lbs in the past two years and need support and some accountability to get it all back off. I'm also trying to go alcohol free as much as humanly possible since I believe that is a major player in my recent weight gain.

    So... my stats:
    SW/CW = 223
    GW this week = 220
    GW for 12/31= 187
    UGW = 135

    Main goal for this first week is to start logging my intake daily and stay alcohol free (I'm on day one AF, so wish me luck)

    of course you can join - especially since your profile pic is of a cat :)

    Good luck - I know you can do it!! We're here for you!

    Good work carlsoda . I had a good Monday too and am hoping to carry it through for the rest of the week. Fingers crossed.

    ERIKJ182 , I like your goal of less coffee. I need to do something similar. I have too many issues with insomnia but unfortunately I am a coffee addict.

    Day two, so far so good. In the gym today, had to force myself but it felt good!

    @carlsoda - Awesome start!

    I'm in! I'll have to weigh myself when I get home, but I'm guessing I'm around 218- 220. I'd like to be around 200 (+/- 5 lbs) for the new year. the week I am going to focus on drinking more water. I've started dance classes 3x a week so that should help me with getting enough exercise.

    "By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail" How true this is! If I food prep on the weekends, I do very well. Luckily, I am not a snacker. I eat bkfast, lunch and dinner. It's just the choices that can be a problem if I don't prep. I cannot just "wing it". On Sundays, I'll spend hours in the kitchen, making 2 or 3 dinners, large enough for leftovers. We'll eat on those meals for a few nights so I can go to the gym after work and not spend lots of time late into the evening in the kitchen. I was also prepping breakfasts and lunches. It started to be too much time on Sundays so last week I started a meal delivery service with meals I only need to nuke for 2-3 minutes (Kettlebell Kitchen). Out of the 15 meals I've had so far, there are only 3 I would not order again. They are delicious and the macros/calories are appropriate for me and my activity level. I'm just ordering Mon-Fri breakfast and lunches. This seems to be working out perfectly for me. :-)
    My goals this week are to:
    1. Work out at least 5 times, plus yoga Wed night
    2. Continue my KB Kitchen meals for Bfast & Lunch then have a healthy meal for dinner @ hm
    3. Run at least 2 days
    4. Food prep dinners on Sun night

    Super pumped! - met with my personal trainer yesterday ..... I am sore as all get out today! Doing Keto and have sworn off the scale for the next 12 weeks. Going to focus on the simple things - daily walking/workouts and proper nutrition and proper sleep --- lets see how that goes and where it lands when I am not so darn focused on making that dumb number drop!
