Valentine's Day Challenge
Anyone interested in doing a Valentine's Day challenge?
It's 6 weeks until Valentine's Day & I'm challenging myself to lose 10.4 pounds, which would put me at 204 pounds.
Who's going to join me!!

I'm going for 250 - which is 10 lbs. And 2 lbs below my current "lowest" weight on this journey.

I;m in with a goal of 215 by Valentine's Day. I've put on 1.2 lbs since reaching my Dec. goal of "under 200". So I'm starting at 220.6 so a lb a week will do it.

I'd like to see 245. That's about 14 pounds. I gained a couple of pounds in December from being sick and not exercising at all so I'm trying to get back in the habit.

I'm w/you guys. I would like to see 290 by Valentine's Day. That's only a 5# loss.

On Valentine's Day, I'll be halfway through my BFL challenge. 10 lbs. is a reasonable goal...that would put me at 228.

Hey Jennelle - how did you determine your BF? did you see a doctor for that? do you have a goal for BF at the end of your body for life challenge. Just curious.

Dana - I used the body fat calculator at
this site. It has two body fat calculators. Use the circumference one, not the YMCA one. When I get my annual checkup (actually, it's been over two years since I've seen the doctor!
), I'm going to ask the doctor if he has a set of bodyfat calipers.
My goal is a 27" waist and 38" hips (my hips don't get much smaller than that!
), which would be about 26% body fat according to the calculator. That's considered "acceptable."

My goal is 215 on 2/15, but reasonably, I'd be very happy at 225 or 220 on 2/15! Ohh... stress! LOL. Peace. -Apryl
