    My starting weight is 328. I'm not as worried about weight loss this month as I'm 2 weeks from surgery!

    My goals:
    Survive the 2 weeks of Adkins induction (20 carbs or less per day) the surgeon prescribes as a pre-op, no cheating!
    Get down to 320 (which will be the 5 pounds loss the surgeon prescribed, I gained a bit over the holidays) by 1/12 (preop visit)
    Walk, walk, walk & sip, sip, sip after surgery!

    Good luck everyone!

    Start weight 187lbs
    1. Get enough water (was doing good but the last week has been really hard, think because I added more protein)
    2. Keep getting the protein I need
    3. Try to workout more, longer
    4. Try to be happier (think this should be #1 maybe)
    End weight for Jan - 175lbs

    for january I would like to lose 15 pounds, start exercising at least 4 days a week once I'm cleared by my doctor on the 17th, try to stay between 40-45 grams of carbs per day, and work on eating slower!
    Reason: put wrong info

    Awesome Idea!

    Starting Weight: 200.4

    1) Start on my exercise routine (Zumba, spinning classes, and aerobic exercise) 3-4x/week
    2) Increase my water intake to at least 60 oz a day
    3) Remember to take my daily vitamins
    4) Work on my confidence!
    5) Lose 15 pounds to get me to my first goal of 185!

    I'm in!

    Starting weight 220lbs - grrrr.

    1) Lose the 10lbs I gained during gallbladder surgery last week plus an additional 11lbs to get me to onederland. That's a 21lbs goal for the month.
    2) Exercise, water, protein, whatever it takes.
    3) Get to sleep early enough to have a decent nights sleep!

    Goodluck everybody!
