Official last weigh-in for this challenge puts me right at 249.4 still...so, I was 3.0 lbs short of my goal for the month. But, like I said before, it was a ambitious goal for February, so I'm still happy with the progress I was able to make...12 lbs this month! It would be nice if I'm able to do that again, but I think I will be more realistic with my goals on the March thread...see you all there!

Carved - Congrats on reaching your goal before month's end!

Chickadee and Slimlizzie - Congrats to you two on your losses, as well!

Last day of the month. I always count tomorrow morning's weight as my end weight for this challenge and start weight for next month's, but I've been under 150 for the past three days so I'm very happy. I'm not very happy that I had to be completely wiped out with the flu to get there. Actually, it was not stomach flu, so my appetite was there, along with TOM, and I didn't eat all that well. I didn't exercise for three days either, so it's probably muscle loss showing up...

MsP: I did both the jumping jacks (too easy--I do them a lot) AND the squat thrusts, which were not as easy, especially with my still slightly woozy head. I'm tagging everyone to do the duck dance or the macarena, or the electric slide, or whatever ridiculous sort of line dance you can do without having to look it up, and then you have to tag no one!

Okay MsP, how do we tag team on this? I know how you feel about not really wanting to check in so often when you aren't playing the game full-heartedly. That's exactly how I feel. I also get overwhelmed with wanting to do personals, but not having the time, and ending up not writing anything! But hopefully, having a bit of responsibility on here will help me to refocus my energies and get to my goal once and for all. So how can I help? Do we take weeks or what?

Went to WW tonight, got all the new materials. Here's to giving it another go.
Look forward to seeing everyone in the March thread!

LouisaH-I started the March thread and I guess we can just play it by ear a little. The goal list is one of the hardest things to keep up at the beginning of the month. I'm off tomorrow, so I can do the thread through then. Maybe you could pick it up Wednesday and take it through the rest of the week?

My end weight for the month of February is 253.1 lbs.

Ophelia, LouisaH, Zoradah and VickieLou - congratulations on your losses!! And congratulations to everyone who met their goals this month, and everyone else who saw losses who saw losses over the course of the month! ANY loss means you weigh less today than you did a month ago, and that is fantastic. Best of luck with your new goals in March!!

Well, I didn't quite make my goal for February. I came up just a bit short.

SW: 215
CW: 207.4
GW: 205

I did lose quite a bit, which I'm pleased with. I just wish I hadn't gotten so sick and that the weather hadn't been such a yo-yo. But I'm hoping I can get to 205 by this Saturday and reach my 195 by April 1st!
