Smile Lose 4 Pounds by Valentine's Day Challenge!



Hello everyone! There are 27 days left until Valentine's Day, and I'd love to start a Valentine's Day challenge. Nothing complicated, nothing fussy, just a promise to to do our best to lose one pound per week until Valentine's Day. That is 4 pounds gone by Valentine's Day!

If we lose more, then great! Let's support each other in losing weight safely and slowly, so we keep it off!

All we will do here is weigh in to get a starting weight, then weigh in once a week (on Saturdays) to track our progress.

We can use this thread to post other goals we may have, to stay accountable, to support each other, to ask for tough love, whatever you need through the next four weeks!

Just post here if you'd like to join me

MJ

I forgot to mention, the challenge starts tomorrow (January 20th) but you can join in anytime! Just post here, and I'll start a list of participants so we can support and encourage each other.

Count me in! I am trying to lose as much weight as possible by Valentine's day, since my husband is due home around that time.

From the time that he left, after his two week visit in early July, until now...I've lost 42 lbs. Not too shabby, but I want for it to be at least 50 lbs, if not a few more than that.
