    Hi everyone! My name is Amanda, I am from Michigan. This is my second time on MFP. I lost 55 pounds in 2016, over the years gained it all back plus some. I started again last March with a goal to lose 110 pounds. I’ve lost 45 and would like to lose 45 more this year. It’s a new month and a new year! My goal this month is to lose 3 pounds.

    SW: 205.0
    GW: 202.0
    UGW: 140 lbs

    1/1: 205.0
    1/2: 205.6
    Stayed under calories but had a candy bar for lunch. Yeah, not making good choices.
    1/3: 203.6
    I did really good with meeting my goals yesterday of fruits and veggies and fiber but I’m not sure if it was deserving of a 2 pound whoosh. I will take it though, let’s hope it sticks around.

    My name is Liz and I really need some accountability to get my butt back in gear. This is the heaviest I’ve ever been.

    Total January loss:
    Goal: 220 lb

    1/1- 227.8
    1/2- 227.0
    1/3- 228.4- I had a dinner out with drinks and not the best of food. I didn’t sleep well and I’m back to my normal schedule so I’m weighting in 5 hours earlier today.

    Hello all!
    My name is Ashley, 36 years old. Married with no kids, one dog, two cats.
    Original start weight: 293 (01/21)
    January start weight: 178.2
    January goal weight: 170
    Ultimate goal weight: Maintain range of 160-165

    Jan 1: 178.2 (Happy New Year! We went out with friends last night and had a little too much fun. Slow moving today. Nevertheless, I have goals to accomplish, so I'm focused on what I want to achieve today.)
    Jan 2: 179.8 (All goals met yesterday including a 7KM walk that pushed me well over my 10K min step goal. Food was tracked, water was drank, did my reading. Today is my last day of vacation before we return to the office so I'm going to enjoy every minute!)
    Jan 3: 178.4 (Up early and back to my in office routine today. Yesterday I rode the Peloton, walked, and stayed on track.)

    I'm Ashley, or "Ashes". I'm a Midwestern gal that lost the first baby weight through these monthly accountability challenges. Now I'm back during my 2nd pregnancy to make sure I'm keeping an eye and not gaining (or losing) too quickly on poor food choices. I'm still first trimester so my doctor recommends 0-4 lbs weight gain, so I'm focusing on eating a super healthy maintenance with extra snacks if I want them.

    Height 5'5"
    1st Starting weight SW May 7, 2021: 169 lbs
    Maintenance weight since Mid Feb 2022: 140lbs
    UGW with pregnancy: ~165-175 lbs (last pregnancy I got up to 182 lbs...which was not recommended)


    1/01: 142 this was bloat from late night banana bread, no exercise
    1/02: 140.8, 15 minute stretches
    1/03: 140.8

    Howdy y'all! I'm a West Virginia girl who is trying to get back to basics. I lost 50 pounds from January to October last year then fell apart, gaining 10 pounds back. I'd like to drop another 40-50 pounds this year. I'm only 5'1" so my goal weight is <120. I enjoy being active, but I also like lazy days on the couch snuggled with the dog especially in the winter months.

    Starting weight: 160.8
    Jan goal: 155

    Jan 3: 160.8

    Jan 3: 270 lbs. -4 lbs! I know it’s likely just water weight, but still! I fasted for 18.5 hours today and am hoping to get a walk in this evening.

    @deepwoodslady I love your travel plan, I hope it worked out! Can you/would you pack a lunch on travel days to help? I know what you mean about the bloat and the water pill. I used to take a BP pill that was essentially a water pill and if I missed it, my weight would go up. I finally lowered my BP and stopped it but some days I miss the whoosh it gave me!

    Hey there, I'm Erika and I've been at this weight loss game, on and off, for tooooo long. This is it! I'm prepped and ready for the long haul. I have 46kg to lose and my aim for January is to lose 8kg. The benefits of weight loss are so massive I would be the biggest fool if I don't follow-through this time - being able to wear lovely clothes, having energy, a brain that's not in a fog, to be more nimble, to put less wear and tear on my joints, to reduce the chance of a 1000 different health conditions. We can achieve anything with good people supporting our efforts :)

    Hi everyone, I thought I saw a couple of people wanting to drink less alcohol. There is a great thread, "Less Alcohol" that promotes moderation and drinking less for whatever reason you need to. The people are very supportive and they share a lot of non-alcoholic recipes. It is not necessarily a 100% sober thread but that is what some use it for. Cant hurt to check it out, huh?
    https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10880222/less-alcohol-january-2023-one-day-at-a-time/p1
    Well I just went back and looked through, I didnt really see anyone mention alcohol, it must have been a different challenge Im on. Sorry! Leaving this here though just in case anyone is interested.
