[circa83]

I'm hoping to see more progress this month, -3 lbs from my lowest weight.

SW: 154.4
GW: 150

03/01: 154.4
03/02: 155.8 Possibly PMS
03/03: 153.6 Possibly not
03/04: 152.4 Upset stomach, too many almonds this week
03/05: 153.0 TOM start
03/06: 154.4
03/07: 154.4
03/08: 155.4
03/09: 154.2
03/10: 153.2
03/11: 154.2 All right, no more popcorn chicken nuggets
03/12: 153.0
03/13: 152.6
03/14: 153.4 Not sure what went wrong
03/15: 151.8
03/16: 152.0
03/17: 151.6
03/18: 151.2
03/19: 151.4 About a 2200 calorie day
03/20: 150.8 I jumped up and down and did a happy dance when I saw that zero! Too bad I'm eating out this afternoon.
03/21: 151.2 Peanut butter cups and lack of sleep
03/22: 150.0
03/23: 149.8
03/24: 150.0 Darn I couldn't hang on to it, even under 1400 calories.
03/25: 150.6 Guess I'm in weight gain mode.
03/26: 151.2 NSV moment, when I went shopping for a shrug yesterday the associate handed me a medium. I thought, "What's she doing? I'm a large." The medium fit though.
03/27: 152.2 I ate sooooooo much yesterday. Shameful.
03/28: 153.6 I ate less than before but had a few servings of potatoes. I'm so used to gaining lately anyway. May as well get it out of my system before April.
03/29: 153.6 TOM start
03/30: 154.4
03/31: 154.4 Back where I started...

Wrap up:
I surpassed my goal weight by 0.2 lbs but managed to start and end the month at the exact same number. I suspected that corn products, like grits and popcorn, caused me to gain or hold onto weight and I'm almost certain of it now. Time to add another starch to the avoid list. It was nice to be able to fit into a size 8 and see a one forty something on the scale this month. I don't think I've been that weight since maybe 5th grade. I hope to see more 4s in April.

GW: 144 lbs
Goals: More muscular workouts (especially at home), weigh-in at gym 4x week in the morning, improve back pain
Rewards: New gym shorts (long enough for biking, short enough for running); "Gloves" for using pull-up bars; 1 new pair of pants!

Observations:

* Backpain has stopped
* This month I saw how I have over the years improved, but that I still need to work on, my coping mechanisms.
* Didn't try hard in the "muscular" area - I need to inform myself more, be more disciplined, and be daring enough to try it in public in the gym My gym membership lasts until the end of May. Time to take advantage of all of it!
* I weighed-in less frequently than last month. Hard to judge my losses and cycles

bumping up the post

[circa83]

Mama_Angel_2006, congrats on hitting the 20 lb mark and souvenirdarling for hitting your number goal already

[Mama_Angel_2006]

I have 1 lb left for my goal for the month then will be starting a new 8 lb goal

[AllyG47]

Ugh, I'm so mad at myself. I gained back everything I lost last year plus more! I just got back from a 2 week vacation and I gained around 10 lbs. That's on top of the 7 lbs I've gained since Christmas. My body is really feeling these extra 17 lbs. My knees ache and I get out of breath just walking across the living room. Plus, my clothes are tight and my embarrassing double chin is back. I'd really like to get back into onderland by the end of June. -My first weigh in was better than I expected. Already lost 5 of the 10 that I gained on vacation. Must have been water weight. Now hoping to reach onderland by the end of April.- I'm going to start planning out my meals again and calorie counting. When I don't plan my meals in advance, I just eat whatever and whenever which makes it easy to overeat. Once I get back into a routine regarding meal planning, I'll add in exercise - probably in a week or two.

SW: 210.8 lbs
GW: 206.8 (-4 lbs)

March

17. 210.8 (not as bad as I thought it would be)

19. 208.8 (-0.6)(TOM)
20. 208.8 (0)(TOM) - Ate at Red Lobster last night and, although I ate the low calorie items on the menu, I'm still surprised this isn't a gain. I'll take it.

Total March Weight Loss: -2.4 lbs

21. 208.4 (-0.4)

24. 207.0 (-0.4)
25. 205.8 (-1.2) - I even ate at Baker's Square yesterday and had a slice of Oreo Pie. Not expecting this loss to last long with Easter so close by.
26. 206.6 (+0.8)
27. DNW

Total Weekly Weight Loss: -0.2 lbs
Total March Weight Loss: -2.6 lbs

28. 208.2 (+1.6) - Easter was not good for my diet. I ate way too many chocolate eggs plus we went to McDonald's for supper.
29. 208.8 (+0.4)
30. 208.6 (-0.2) - Not sure how I lost anything. Diet is going horribly with Easter leftovers hanging around. Need to get back into meal planning mode.

It looks like everyone's been having a productive March.
I guess I'm bumping the post with an anecdote that happened this month when I had mentioned my current weight and goal weight to my dad who hadn't seen me this size before. Sometimes my sis will call me skinny or say I don't need to lose any more weight and make other comments I don't care for, and later that day she went as far as to say I had technically reached my goal already because I have dense bones. What is that? How does she figure my bones are 20 lbs heavier than other people's? Last I checked I still had excess fat to burn. Of all the lame excuses to try to convince someone to not lose weight.

It's nearly the end of the month, so I don't want to crash your party. When you start in April, can I join?

Many thanks!
