    Really looking forward to 2020 and implementing long term good healthy habits! I started running consistently in 2019 and want to add pilates 3x's/week and getting down to my goal weight to this next year.

    Height: 176cm (5'9")

    MEASUREMENTS
    Stomach: 82cm (32,82") -> 83cm (32,68) ^up 1cm (.5") last month
    Waist: 75cm (29,53") - no movement last month
    Belly/Upperhip: 90cm (35,43") - no movement last month
    Hips: 99cm (38,98") - no movement last month
    Thighs: 58cm (22,83") -> ^up 1cm (.5") last month (up 2cm (1") since November)

    GOALS
    #1 Still working on that actual pull-up/chin-up. I definitely feel I've become stronger yet the full range movement is still (way) out of reach.
    #2 Get back down to my "stable" weight of 66.x kg
    #3 Do IF more conscientiously; I've often ended too soon at 13 or 14 hours instead of the minimum 16.

    2 Jan - 68,7kg (151,46lbs)... I gained a whopping 2kg (4,41lbs)... KILL ME. Strangely enough, my measurements don't seem very different (see above) although I feel you can see it in my face. I can only hope this "newly" gained fat melts off rather quickly.

    169 cm / 5’5”, 37 y 
    HW: 76.1 kg / 168 lbs (26/Aug/19) 
    GW Jan: 70 kg / 154 lbs
    Overall GW: 57.5 kg / 127 lbs 
    Monthly average –> Sep: 73.6 kg / Oct: 73.0 kg / Nov: 72.5 kg / Dec: 71.6 kg

    Goal #1: Get back into a “normal” rhythm after the holidays, for food and sports.
    Goal #2: Log more regularly (except weekends, still can’t be bothered).
    Goal #3: Keep taking more time and space for myself.

    01-jan: 71.2 kg (7-day average: 71.6 kg) - holidays could have gone much worse. not much up overall.
    02-jan: 71.8 kg (7-day average: 71.6 kg) - TOM around the corner. :/

    2019: HW 78 - LW 69
    CW: 72
    Jan GW: 70

    Yups, the holidays have taken their toll weightwise. All the foods combined with a total lack of exercise due to the bad weather and a lingering bronchitis result in a gain of a whopping 2 kg on top of the kilo that I had already gained before the holidays.
    I find it extremely difficult to maintain as I tend to be all or nothing when it comes to eating. Moderation is something that I don’t master; whenever I see food that I like, my reptilian brain takes over and I will vacuum down all the goodies.
    I’ve changed my calorie goals back to loosing 1/2 pound a week (1.200) and I will check in here daily to get back on track.

    Goals:
    1. Walk at least 10k a day
    2. Keep within my daily cals
    3. Push-up challenge restart

    @Antiopelle , what push up challenge do you use? It's one of the things I really struggle with doing (inclined is about the best I can do, but my planks are fine, it's just adding the movement...)

    Hi @katsheare. Last year I followed this : https://hundredpushups.com/
    I'm pretty strong overall, except my arms, therefor I did using my knees as restpoint instead of my toes. I did it until I could do 70, and then due to circumstances I stopped and I regret it, as I truly gained strength. This weekend I will do the test and next week, I start again.

    Brilliant! This looks thorough, and I do love a graded plan (C25k was a revelation!).

    I'll give it a read and hopefully be following in your footsteps soon (not with a paring knife, though! That does not sound like a good weight-loss plan!! I hope you're recovering well and not finding it too intrusive in daily life. It's amazing how much we use things like fingertips...)

    I'm in the same boat - it was going great... my arms were looking better and I injured my shoulder. I'm doing the test tomorrow and fresh start at it 1/6.
