Joyful January Challenge WK 1!

I would love to join! I know for a fact that challenges do give you that extra push. I lost almost 25 pounds last year and then let myself go and I am only down 11 pounds. I have 14 pounds to go to reach that point again! I can do this and I need all the help I can get! Please let me know what I need to do to. I was wondering if there is a chart that you keep track or will you post them directly on here? When I was in charge of the challenge before, I used google spreadsheets. Not sure how ya do it. Let me know if there is anything I can help you with too

Starting weight for January 1, 2012 is 164.0 pounds <~~ Should be way lower than that by now

So my start weight on Saturday was 159.8. The first few days I was still in holiday mode so not too hopeful for the first weigh in but already getting back on track. Yesterday I went for my first run in over a month. Goal was 2 miles and finished at 2.33 so WIN! I even made it back to my regular bootcamp class this morning and have planned my food for today. I feel 100% better already.

My goal for this week is to get back to tracking every gosh darn thing I eat into my food diary, even if it's bad and I don't want to see it in print. I need to hold myself accountable! It took be FOREVER to break my 160's plataue and I'll be d*mned if I see 16 in front of my weight again!

Keep up the great work fellow challengers!

Ahhh! I caved and stopped at Mcdonald's this morning. I got 2 egg biscuits...600 calories total!!! My daily "goal" is 1600 but still I am SO MAD at myself now!! "smack, smack, smack" Ok, now it's to the gym tonight to work extra hard.
