January Weight Loss Challenge
 

Start the New Year right with the January Weight Loss Challenge!

Join the thread this month (and every month) to set your goal, track it, and meet it -- with the help of a supportive and encouraging group.

What is your goal for January? All the goals will be compiled into a list. As each goal is met during the month, it gets turned RED in celebration.

Join us at our sister thread, http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/chic...challenge.html, to track your fitness goals.

I'll join to stay accountable. I have put on mega pounds since breaking my back. Eating has been out of control. -- I may not be able to shed any, but at least, if I did not gain more during the month of January.

Sum- What happened?!?! How did you break your back?!?! I'm so sorry, that sucks!!

pnkrckpixikat...by being stupid. Tried to get a box down, ugh. And I live with giants that could have easily taken it down for me, but I was being stubborn.

How tragic! Don't be stubborn ladies! (Drink your milk and take your Ca and vit D!)

I'm in for January. Realistically....6lb....Idealistically....10lb.... .or 55.....

Thank for making this thread, I was beginning to think you wern't :)

And congratulations to all of you who made your December goals and congratulations to all of you who lost any weight. And congratulations to all who are just starting a weight loss, you have joined a circle of winners. The first step is the hardest and you just took it.


For this month I am going back to my 6 lb per moth goal.

I missed the last goal but did not expect to make it. But now I see I could have :D

But I backed off for health reasons. (Jump on that Mrs. Snark :) )

once more I will not go over 2200 even on those insane days :) (And I know I am the ONLY one that has them :D )

Starting weight 196.4.... .6 lb under my Xmas goal.

New goal weight 190.4, and no going over 2200 calories. I will post my daily weights and calories but only once a week.

Good morning all, happy new year!

Goal is 4 lbs. ~ a pound a week

Good morning - I'd like to join in this month. My goal is to lose 7 pounds in January and get to 205. I lost a total of 25 pounds in 2014 and am aiming for 165-170 by the end of 2015. Right now I am trying calorie counting and will see how that goes. I lost the 25 pounds following Weight Watchers.

I hope everyone has a successful month.

Awwww Sum that sucks!!! :( I'm sorry :(

Ok, so I started staying on track on Monday, I seem to have flushed the majority of my water weight already so today's 259.5 seems to be at least close to true weight. I think I will aim for 8 pounds this month, if I hit it early somehow I will go for a stretch goal.

New month and New Year! This is a great month for focusing ---Lets do it together!! :carrot:

Gah! I've been off 3fc for the last 3 weeks because of all that was going on through the holidays. Thankfully I haven't gained much weight. I'm only starting 3 pounds up from my low. Although, I might have some trouble in the last part of the month as my Birthday is on the 21st.

Good luck to all in their weight loss this year. :hat:

Well, he returned your calls but yer hubby answered the PH so he hung up. And I see you have different head gear, a blue cap. Hiding that hat won't help, I will double my reward for it :cool:

I'm in! I lost 31 lbs in 2014, and the support on this forum has helped me a ton! I'm very happy to be starting the new year weighing a good bit less than I did last year. It feels good!

I'm hoping for at least a 4 lb loss for January, hopefully we will all reach our goals!

Alright. 2015. It's on. I'm weighing in at 173.6 after a long week of eating like crap and drinking like a fish. Was down to 150 and let it alllllll go. This time it's not that I don't like the way I look. I don't like the way I feel. And I remember feeling so great before. Any who. Let's do this!

I'd like to join! I've unfortunately gained some weight back over the holidays and I need to get back on track. My weight loss goal for January is 6 lbs:
