I'm pretty happy with how March went. I got a little frustrated in the middle of the month when I started gaining despite doing everything right but I just kept doing what I was doing and it worked itself out. The only obstacle I can see for April is Easter but as long as I don't bring candy into the house until that specific day and limit it to a few treats as well as Easter dinner, then I think I will be fine. I'm aiming for a 6 pound loss this month which I think is doable. I haven't been under 190 lbs in over ten years so I'm pretty excited about getting into the 180's.
SW: 195.6 lbs

2. 195.6 lbs (

3. 195.4 lbs (

4. 195.4 lbs (
0) - I'm getting tired of the 195's. I was really hoping to be 194.x or lower by now.
5. 195.8 lbs (
+0.4) - I'm going to cry. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I've been sticking to my diet 100% plus drinking a ton of water and getting an extra 1,000 steps per day on top of my 10K goal. I even peed and pooped a lot yesterday and thought for sure I was going to get a big whoosh today.
6. 197.0 lbs (
+1.2) - This is my fault. I felt horrible yesterday and just wanted some comfort food. Went to Baker's Square for supper and had crispy chicken tenders, fries and pie. Yummy but very salty and a lot of calories.
7. 197.8 lbs (
+0.8) - Didn't think I ate that badly yesterday.
Total Weekly Loss:

10. 195.6 lbs (
-0.6) - I peed a ton yesterday so I was hoping for more of a loss. Oh well. At least I'm back to 195.
11. 196.6 lbs (
+1.0) - WTF!!! I am PISSED about this. I am doing everything right. Weighing my food religiously, staying between 1200-1500 calories and getting 10K steps a day. I even did some extra cardio and I GAIN weight.
I'm taking a few days off from weighing. It's driving me mad. I'll stick to my diet for the next few days and come back on Monday with a new, hopefully lower weight.

21. DNW - Ate too much yesterday and didn't want to see a gain. I went out to eat today in addition to all the candy I ate this morning so I'm not going to weigh-in this week. I'm going to work my butt off with my diet and exercise and come back on the 29th and see where I'm at.

**~April Weigh-In Thread~**
Welcome to the April weigh-in thread. You are free to copy and paste the form below into your own post to keep track of your daily weigh-ins or you can make your own. You don't even have to weigh-in daily to post here. You can weigh in twice a week, once a week, every other week or just at the beginning and end of the month - whatever you feel comfortable with. I'm looking forward to seeing your big losses (or gains if that is what you are aiming for) as the month goes on.
