  • Okay I'm joining this because I've been afraid to weigh myself for weeks, and this will force me to do it. I will weigh in the morning and create my goal once I do!
  • I will join in on this thread, as well. I will get my start weight in the morning and use that as my beginning weight, because I will be out of town for the weekend. But, either way, I know that I want my first-month-back-to-3FC goal to be 10 lbs down for January. We shall see. Be back tomorrow!

    This has been my lifelong struggle, so I'm fearful and hopeful at the same time.

  • Yes, I am game!
    I did the December challenge and it really helped to keep me accountable. Here are my goals for January.

    01/02: 190
    01/09: 188
    01/16: 186
    01/23: 184
    01/30: 182

    This would be a total of 20 lbs since I started in December and a total of 8lbs lost in January!
  • Hello all,

    This is a great thread. I am totally new to the site so hope I am doing everything right! Currently reading an excellent book about habits and why we do what we do and how to change. One of the biggest factors found in studies in relation to achieving habit change is finding a support group of like minded people so here I am! Ready to change my habits for a healthy 2017

    Goals as follows:
    01/02: 89kg
    01/09: 88kg
    01/16: 87kg
    01/23: 86.5kg
    01/30: 86kg

    Achieving this will mean I will be at the lowest weight I have ever been. There is something to work for!

    Here's to everyone achieving their goals!

  • In for the long haul.

    I fell way short of the 8 lbs I thought I would lose last month, losing one of the eight.

    My starting weight this month is 250.

    My goal will only be the remaining 7 lbs of last month, or 243 lbs.

    I know I lost fat even though it does not show on the scales. I feel better and modified my died removing dairy, which I love. Since starting I have bought no more cheese and only 2 1/2 gallons of Knudsons buttermilk.

    Wishing the rest of you much more success than I had this past month

  • I would like to join! My goal is to lose 5 lbs in January. I just started WW using the smart points on 12/28- I weighed in this morning and had already lost -3lbs. I plan to weigh in weekly to post lbs lost:

    Is there an active smart points ww group here?
