Default February weight loss challenge

I'm not going to call it a 5 lb challenge, so that everyone can set their own goal for the month.

My personal goal is 5 lbs - or more! Hope it's a great February for everyone!!

I'm in. I am going for 4 pounds since there are 4 weeks in February. My weight on 2/1 is 165.4 so on 2/28 I want to be 161.4 (or below!).

I'm trying to get out of the 220's. From where I sit right now, that's 4 lbs but I think I'm still carrying some water from my indiscretion the other day. I did look to see what I weighed on Jan 1 and I am still down 2 lbs from that so that makes me feel a little better. At least the overall trend is still in the right direction. It is just way slower than I would like.

I'd be happy to lose 5 lbs.
I'm smack in the middle of a MAJOR home remodel project and I'm binging day & night and not preparing meals or exercising.

It's all relative - I'm looking very forward to getting INTO the 220s! lol!

But while it's not fast, 2 lbs down is still a lot better than 2 lbs up! Plus you may have whoosh coming with that extra water.

I don't usually change my ticker other than my official weigh in days, but decided to go ahead and claim my .5 lb I was down this morning, so I can officially declare that I've met my first 10% goal!!

Now I just need to keep that .5 off and have lots of little friends join it by official WI next week!

I'm in...been stuck at 223 for awhile now - I'm aiming for let's say 5 pounds. That's 1 pound for each week, and an extra for good measure. Goal to be at 218 by or before March 1.

If I get out of the 220's I will have lost 10% of my body weight.
