January Weight Loss Challenge
 

Do you have weight loss resolutions for 2024? Let's get off to a strong start in January!

Join the January Weight Loss Challenge to set your goal, track it, and meet it -- with the help of a supportive and encouraging group. All the goals will be compiled into a list. As each goal is met during the month, it gets turned RED in celebration.

This thread is for weight loss goals. For your exercise goals, check out our sister thread: January Exercise Challenge

Hi Joy, thank you for the challenge! Hey everyone and happy 2024 to us all!

Start weight : 319.3 lbs on 1/1/24
End of month goal: 315 lbs
Method - low carb, eat more veggies, include more exercise in my week, continue to take my berberine and acv gummies. Drink more water and green tea. Stress less, sleep more.

Happy New Year
Bad end to 2023 so starting fresh in 2024
SW: 186.8
January Goal: 183 (-3.8)
2024 Goal: 160

I'm not that hopeful that I'll lose a kilogram in January, given that I lost weight in December. But I know that the best way to maintain December's loss is to attempt to lose more in January. So, here we go!

Thank you Joy, I am 316 from 319.3 lbs goal is still 315.

Hello again and congrats to all who lost in December, and that does NOT include me. My starting weight in December was 233. I went down to a few pounds then something happened that I shot back up to 239, a 6 lb gain!

My weight has been all over the place yet I have been restricting my diet so as to lose more than a pound per week. I have no explanation for that, but I am still trying to lose and must do so. Though I weighed 236 at the beginning of January I am now back down to 233. I will consider this 233 as my starting weight, the same as Dec 1st was.

My goal this month is really to just come out a few lbs less however I will state a goal of 4 lbs loss for this month anyway.

Good luck all of you, welcome to the newcomers and thanks for starting this up again Joy

Very nice Churchill quotes Camster, thanks

Hi everyone - I you all are doing well. I haven't been very consistent this month with exercise and weighing myself. I am down .4 since I last weighed, 2 weeks ago. I'm going to see if I still make my 4 pound goal for January - I've got 1.8 more pounds to go.

Gardenerjoy: congrats on meeting your goal!

Looking good, flower1 and MrBadger!

I have some life stressors going on, making good food choices a challenge. But not impossible, so I'm going to work harder on that.
