Would love to get in on a March challenge! Started at 20-22!!!! Now at 18 and would love to see 16 by April 1. One day at a time....One size at a time!
Hi everyone
l'll kick off March 1st.
Unfortunately I have made very little progress, I have only lost 4 lbs. in February and am no closer to getting into my slacks now than I was on February 1st.
The last month has been a bit of a problem healthwise, but I am getting better now, so I can start getting some exercize which will help improve things.
Sorry to start things on a not so good note, but I'll plug away at things in March and hope to have better news on April 1st.
Meanwhile I am looking forwards to seeing how you all are doing!!! YOU GO, GIRLS
Happy March 1st. It's our first (and likely our last) snowfall of the year here in Atlanta. It is so beautiful.
Well, unfortunately my pants still don't fit but I am very close. WaaH! It's my own fault. I had been steadily losing weight since November but in the last two weeks I got really lazy about what I was eating. I do this everytime I hit a certain weight. Anyway, I just have to get tough with myself. I swear by April 1st I will be able to wear those jeans!!!!
Well, I have to look at the big picture. From Jan. until now the 'bagel top' has diminished to a 'muffin top' and I can wear the stretch jeans <---even out in public!
Feb. has been a slow losing month, but weight that comes off slowly stays off right? I'm still committed to this WOE, no choice cause the weight is going down not up.
I sure would like to report 'onederland' by April for sure! A non-muffin top for spring will be great as well.
Bravo! So far nobody has to buy a bigger pants size!!!
How's everybody else doing?
I lost about 5 lbs in February. The pants definitely snap/zip up. However, still too tight to wear comfortably. I'm guessing (if I can lose another 5 lbs in March), that they will fit by my birthday in April.
Well, Lynn it's progress! I can't zip the 'non-stretch" pair or even pull them all the way up.
I have to say when I started this I thought I would have lost more weight by now....it just seems to hover around the same 5 pounds for weeks! Today I was up 2 pounds
Thank goodness for the measurements.....down another inch in my waist, hips the same.
Progress!
what a lot of time i've wasted! If I had really been diligent I would be wearing my jeans by now. Instead they are still a bit too tight. But I am renewing my pledge and I have made progress. These last 2 weeks have been Op and i expect to see some results soon. i don't count on anything untill I see it. My body doesn't always do what it's supposed to do. But i do know that if i continue I will lose, I just have to be patient.
OK - it's official - I lost 5 lbs since I began this challenge and now fit into the pants. I took them today to get shortened & plan to wear them to my birthday camping get-together in early April.
Hopefully, someone will take some photos & I will post.
Now, how about a "Summer Dress Challenge?"

LYNN Bravo!!! Please share pics.....
you are such a LOSER...
I went skiing today and I can tell my pants aren't as tight ... but I've still got miles to go......
Well, even though I have lost almost no weight, I seem to be losing inches: the slacks finally close.
That having been said, there is definitely serious muffin-top going on, so I won't be wearing them in public any time soon.
As for a dress challenge, I don't do dresses so I won't be doing that one.
I'll check in again May 1st to let you know how the muffin-top is doing.
Keep it up girls!
I've lost some inches....I can see some abs now! But the muffin top is still there .,,, but no longer a bagel top!
I have a beautiful velvet black sheath type classic dress that I've been trying to fit into for years......now that would be a challange!
YOU GO, GIRLS
fit or no fit.
