I'm wanting to try at this challenge again! This challenge really helped me this past year be accountable, that is until I fell off the wagon completely halfway through and gained it all back and then some.
But it's okay! I learned a lot and will use my past experiences to make this year even better! Good luck everyone!

I'm not sure I have 52 pounds of fat that I want/need to lose at this point, but I'm close enough that I'm going to call myself "in."
Starting weight: 197.1 pounds
(HSW: 252, MFP restart: 242.7)
5'1" F
Goal: 21.5% body fat
(currently estimated at 140-145)
Current weight: 197.1
Total challenge weight lost: 0.0
This week's successes: Getting back into deficit after a maintenance break.
This week's challenges: Extremely low motivation (for life-ing in general -- not out of the norm, as I battle physical and mental health issues on an ongoing basis).
A heads up: I will likely go faster than 1 pound/week for the first 4-ish months, then looking to tighten up and go into a slow loss followed by a recomp phase. I'll likely make 52 pounds of weight loss on the scale with some skin loss (hopefully), along with lean mass having to do with the support of the fat stores I have. I am aiming to maintain/increase muscle mass and bone density, so that may throw off the scale results. I do hope to reach my goal body fat percentage by the year's end, whatever scale weight that puts me at.6 -
I would like to join in. I'll post my weight over the weekend as I need to get a new scale. I've gained about 20lbs since November as I pigged out the entire month of December. I know this because I have nothing that fits to wear to work tomorrow8

Love the challenge. I want to lose 28, and then do some fine tuning after that. My vices of wine and chocolate, coupled with traveling for work, seriously interfere with my goals.

This week's challenges: I am married to a thin wife with a high metabolism. Days spent with her, with no mindfulness as to what I am eating, are hard. And I am on vacation for another week.
