    Hi all

    I would like to lose 10lb this quarter please. I have previously joined and rejoined and rejoined SW but I never stick to it, so I'm hoping that if I join this group instead I will! I'm currently at 177lb.

    I will weigh on Thursdays as that's my WFH day so I have more time in the mornings.

    Thanks

    Happy New Year all!
    Im aiming for 7Ibs this quarter.

    End of last year was a total disaster, I went majorly off the rails and now feel like a bowling ball. :(
    TBH Im not going to be concentrating on weight loss this month though. I want to try and get back to healthy habits without worrying about weight. So increasing activity and getting back to my vegan wholefood diet (which is what seems to work best for me).
    I'll probably still be back weekly though for moral support! ;)

    Well the scales this morning weren't quite as scary as I thought they'd be, probably helped by a week of flu. Will probably stick to my monday morning weigh in and just miss this one coming.
