    I'm in !!!
    I actually started on Jan 3rd and called my project "Operation 75" for 75 days til my Mexico vacation LOL
    I have been weighing in daily, counting and logging all intake, using fitbit to gauge my daily burn for my set deficit. I also am following the Body Beast Lean calendar.

    Your challenge is perfect timing for me :) and our stats are similar too !

    Highest weight: 225
    SW (Jan3rd) 185.4

    I'll be doing my best! I tried quite hard for months, and made it to 96 pounds, but then life got wayyy too busy and I moved to a different country. I'm going to try again, and hopefully not give up this time!

    Hi I'm Sam. I'm trying to bounce back from having a baby about 5 months ago. Trying to get back into shape and lose what's left of the pregnancy weight. I've been plateaued for a few weeks (and the holidays weren't helping). So staying motivated is a huge part for me and has been a struggle lately.

    SW - around when baby was born - 165lbs
    CW - 136lbs
    GW - 127lbs

    Great timing, looking for a challenge such as this so thanks for creating it. Started on Sunday. Had a full shoulder replacement about a year ago and I was limited for about a year before that. Lost a lot of muscle and picked up unwanted weight along the way. Not strong enough to do everything I used to in the gym but I can get started.
    • Goals: Fat loss and strength building
    • Goal weight: Not sure, I rely more on photos, energy levels, and how my clothes fit rather than the scale but guessing 20-25 pounds. I do weigh myself every morning to make sure I'm heading in the right direction.
    • Training: Strength training 3-4 days/week, HIIT on alternate days, and other cardio (pickleball several times/week)
    • Nutrition: Protein 45-50%, Carbs 25%, Fats 20-25%

    1/19- 226
    1/20 - 224
    1/21 - 222
    1/20 - 222

    Thank you for starting this blog. I am getting back on track and can use all the help I can get! In 2018 I was in fairly good shape. I got lazy, broke my shoulder, was drinking more, etc... I slowly gained 38 lbs. I saw Christmas pictures of myself and decided to get into the best shape of my life. My May goal is <10% body fat.
