    Welcome everyone! It is exciting to see so many motivated to join this challenge. It doesn't matter if you have a lot or a little to lose. Everyone can participate.

    I joined this challenge in 2017 with a goal of losing 40#. I lost 30! In 2018 I have not lost, but I did maintain until the past couple of months when I did lot of travel and gained 10#. I try to post on Sat but will start this challenge with today's numbers.

    Starting weight: ( 2016; 188 ) 141.2
    Goal weight: 120
    Current weight:: 141.2
    Total weight lost: (46.8)
    This week's weight loss: -.4
    This week's success: Continuing this challenge!
    This week's challenges: Too many left over goodies! I will take care of the "goodies" today.

    I finished the year with 12 organized runs of 5k & 10k. I will start 2019 with a 10k on Jan 6. Feeling very proud of this accomplishment. My first run was in March 2018. I was never a runner before and have found that I really enjoy it.

    Can I join if my goal is to lose slower than that (I'm shooting for 2lbs per month)? I've had a rough couple of years with injuries and stress at work, and I've gained back almost 20lbs. I need to find a way to get myself back on the right track.

    Yesterday was super easy to stay at my allotted calories of 1200. Today was a birthday party and that went up to 1757 calories ouch! Not a pretty day. This is why we can’t celebrate fun things every day- or at least *I* can’t lol. Here’s to a much better tomorrow!!!

    I need to join. I definitely need to lose at least 100 lbs, preferably 125. I've lost and gained in the past, and now I'm at my highest weight ever. My goal for this year is to make it to 193 lbs. My first non-scale goal is to fit back into my jeans that I haven't been able to wear in several months. I really don't want to buy a larger size, so losing is my only choice.

    Starting weight: TBD
    Goal weight: 199 lbs (eventually 120 lbs)
    Current weight: 245 lbs
