Well, I blew January's goal! So lets try for five pounds in February. Maybe I will get it this time. I was doing so good and then it got so cold I could not get out to exercise and my back is very sore, but if I could stay away from the junk I would be alright.
Im still working on me! Fine polished works of art take time and are not to be rushed so I guess I will not be finding a quick fix to my weight problem, one day at a time, same as alcohol and nicotine addictions. Sometimes it takes a while to get it through my head.

I'll go for the 5 pound challenge, but I'm not going to push it since I lost weight being sick, my body might want to even out or something.

Personal goal: I am giving up red wine. I want to drink it just for social situations.

Habitual drinking has snuck up on me, and that is not a good thing.

Start: 148 Feb. Goal: 143

OK, I'm totally in for the February challenge.

Starting weight: 197.2 (as of 2 weeks ago when I went back to LA Weight Loss)
My current weight: 194
Loss goal: I would like to lose 6 lbs by the end of the month.
Personal challenge: to track in my journal everyday and stay on program. I'm also increasing my exercise. I am an optimist so I know I can do it!!!!

And may I say how much I love everybody's little weight loss rulers. They are soooo cool.

Default Me TOO!

Hi all,
Thanks Mauv for starting the February Challenge. Between yesterday and today, I LOST THAT LAST DARN pound from my January Challenge.!!!

So, that makes 10 total since joining this group. I would like to lose another 10 pounds for the February Challenge.

I would also like to post here every day, write to my 3chicks buddy every day, work harder getting all my water in every day, and get in 10,000 steps every day. (whew! Thank goodness this is a short month!)

Good Luck to us all!
