Please add me in. I am ready to get back to where I was 5 years ago. For January I am giving up alcohol and bread.
SW - AS of today. 205.5
CW -
Goal for January 195. That's 10.5 pounds, but I know the first 5 will be water weight.
Thank you for always being here Joy. I found this thread to be so helpful in the past.

Hey Guys! Good to see some other possible participants. I've tracked my breakfast and lunch, and got my 30 minutes of exercise logged on my watch. Hope everyone is having a great Saturday!

Howdy everyone! Here it is...Monday again! I've been off work since Christmas eve. It was nice to get back to a normal schedule. Weighed in this morning and have all my food points tracked for the day. I managed not to drink any alcohol all weekend, which is quite a feet for me, as hubby and I are craft beer junkies. Was down just a little to 204.4. Everyone enjoy your evening...I still have a workout planned after dinner.

Happy Friday! Today is my weigh in day. Only down a few to 203.8. Still, I'll take it. Another weekend coming up and doing my best to preplan so I can stay on track. I worked out Monday and Tuesday, but my arthritis was killing me Wed and Thurs. Planning to get out to my garage gym this afternoon. Hope you all are doing well!

happy friday to all .

my weekly weigh-in day is not until monday, but the scale is showing me that i am trending the right way. the hardest part for me is not eating after 9pm, but i have been doing very well in that area since new years. i plan on keeping it up.
hope everyone is doing well with their plan.
