Like a lot of you, I hit the "resolution reset button" on  Jan 1.  Too much holiday eating and drinking (and a short dry spell in the gym) didn't do my fitness plan any favors.  It is definitely time to get back to business.   I updated my plan (via the Goals page in MyProfile).  I set my weight loss target at 2 lbs per week and my calorie intake goal to 2000.  

I'm 11 days into the plan and I'm down about 8 lbs.  So far, so good!   Even though the first 4 or 5 lbs is mostly retained water and glycogen, it still looks great when I get on the scale.  The good news is that things are moving in the right direction.
