Ok well, i'm jumpin in a lil late on this one, but here goes.

easter goal, 14lbs
goal weight, 199ish :)

Keeping it to under1400 cals, and runnin around with the kids whenever i can.
April seems like a long way off(a good thing) so gl and keep it up ladies!

Hi everyone... sounds like everyone is doing well with the challenge. I was down 1.5 last week (I weigh on Fridays), but I am worried about this week. I'm having a super stressful week at work, and yesterday was pretty awful. I had pizza, brownies, and lots of it. Also some Easter candy someone had brought to work. It was all just mindless stress eating. Today has been better, but I have literally no time to exercise all week. So, I'm a little frustrated, but I will just try to watch the calories and get back on track when this **** week ends. Good luck to everyone else... we can make our goals!!

Although I haven't had the mindless eating problem, my problem is usually that I'm down to a good weight on Friday, but by Monday morning, it's right back up there! Ugh.

down another pound:carrot:

It's my second day here, I signed up last night. I'm looking forward to seeing 169 on the scale by Easter. Thanks for starting this challenge!

Weighed in this AM DOWN A POUND!!:spin: HOORAY! I'm off to good start!

WTG all you losers!!!!!

Yippeeeeeeee!
 

Down another 2 lbs! I am now 141.6 :hat:

Keep up the great work, Ladies! :dancer:

All my calorie-cycling / zig-zagging for the past month or two is finally starting to pay off! I am looking forward to sticking to the Easter Challenge plan and reaching GOAL! :carrot:

Keep the motivation going, keep posting, and keep countin those calories! :twirly: At the end of the challenge, I will record how many pounds each and every one of you lost and then post it! :comp: I can't wait to see how many pounds we all collectively lose! :cheer2: All that extra weight gone FOREVER!!! :woohoo:

Have a great day, Ladies! :wave:

:cheer: WE WILL SUCCEED @ EASTER CHALLENGE :goodluck:

:dust:

:grouphug:

I finally weighed in today and I'm down 2 lbs! woo-hoo!

So..I'm at 192.2!! I finally got to move my ticker I'm so excited!!!

Great job everyone! Keep up all the good work!

Allison, I do the weekend overindulging too. I weigh Fridays and then treat myself a little. Sometimes Friday's treat merges into Saturday. I'm going to try hard not to do that this weekend!

Good job to all the girls above who are losing... how many days/weeks now till Easter??

2 pounds down this week!

WTG!!! I'm 1 pound up from last Friday. I think that will be gone by tomorrow. Then I need to concentrate on not going up again.

I'm maintaining my one pound lost. My stress over finals is disrupting my workout schedule :(

I know EXACTLY how you feel. Last week was midterms for me.

Down 1 lb.:carrot: I guess that is better than nothing. I'll take it seeing that I have been sick all week. I have had a bad sinus infection. I have just now started to breath. YEAH!!

WTG Melissa!!

Down some more :)

Okay so I didn't post last week. I was away on my weigh in day (Monday)and the day after that so I didn't have my own scale to refer to. When I weighed myself on Wednesday I was up 1/2.

I have a had a week of fluctuations. :mad: I am still within my caloric target for the week but there are two things that I think have had an impact. #1 is lack of sleep. I always find when I don't get enough sleep the scales don't move as I like. #2 Hard time with the water.

Although I fluctuated all week, I have still netted a small loss. Tommorrow is my official weigh in but so I am hoping for a better report tomorrow :^: but for right now I am down another 0.6.

I am so looking forward to saying I am down 20 pounds!!!

Well I did not weight in today I had chips last night with my kids while we watched a movie so I will wait until next week. I don't have chips often so I am not too worried.

weighin' in tomorrow...
 

Well, I am going to weigh in tomorrow (Monday) morning... :bb: I feel like I had lots of salt :nono:this weekend and not much water -- not to mention chocolate! :chockiss: It's also now my TOM, so we'll see what the scale says tomorrow. :chin:

If it says the same as last week, I will be happy. :snail: If it says more I will be a little annoyed, but I'll know it's water retention from all the salt + TOM. :snooty: I hate TOM, not for obvious reasons, but also because it makes us retain water. :dz: How annoying that it messes with our weigh-in's.:halfempty

Uggh. :club:

But hey, that'll be over in a week! :coffee2: KEEP IT UP LADIES! :cheer: We've got about 35 days till GOAL!!! Let's make EVERY DAY COUNT!!! :yay:

LET'S KICK SOME BUTT!!!! :kickbutt:

If you guys don't mind I'm going to join in late. This is exactly what I need to get me to ONEderland. My goal is going to be 11 lbs. It may seem alittle much but with the proper nutrition and exercise.:carrot: I can do this.
My weigh in day is Wednesday. I'll check back then. Thanks.

Just weighed-in -- 141.2 :)

Mini-Goal : 140 lbs by mid-next week.

Good luck to everyone! :hug:

Down a pound for weigh in this week. Would have liked more but hey, a loss is a loss. I was down a half from yesterday so that is a positive.

Not looking good for my goal of 4.5 lost by St. Paddy's (which is half of my Easter goal):(

Woo Hoo Down anouther 1.4 today! I will make my St. Paddy's goal yet!!!

Down 1 more pound!

determined, you're doing great!!!!

I'm still stuck at the 2 lb loss, but my eating has been way off so that isn't surprising.

Back on the wagon yet again.

I'm in!!!!!
 

I am in...want to lose 10 pounds in March...3 down 7 to go! :dance:

Teresa

I can do all things through Christ who strenthens me!

Is it to late to join? I've been going over my fitday for the last 2 weeks, those calories are creeping back in!!! I'm taking myself back down to the 1400-1500 range, and want to lose 6 pounds by Easter.

Weight now: 218
Easter Goal: 212

Yay! Down another 0.8 which is 0.4 from my St. Paddy's goal since St. Paddy's day was half way between Easter and when I joined the Easter challenge, I wanted to lose half my Easter challenge weight by St. Paddy's. Looks like I am going to make it! I am so happy. I was so bummed last week when the scale was fluctuating in and out of the 200s.

I guess I will now switch my ticker back to the Easter Challenge ticker.

AND....On another good note, today I had to put a new notch in my belt! :D

Down another 0.6!

Not doing too good here, my weight is back to starting weight of 142. That's better than a couple days ago, though--it was up to 143.5. TOM, ya know (and maybe a little TMI!).

Eating is on track, I should see a loss by tomorrow.

WTG to everyone losing!

Well weight in this weekend could be a pain TOM for me also.I may get on anyways just to see but I hate seeing the 'high' number TOM brings sometimes even thought we know that 3-6 opunds is water the scale is still not playing nice.

I am having a really hard time finding the right calorie range for myself. I want to feel satisfied, but not bloated or full, but I also want to lose weight. I eat alot of raw veggies and fruit, in fact the rawer the better, lean protiens, but somehow those calories keep adding up.

It will get better, I'm taking a firmer control on the reins.

Unfortunately for me, my weight is still up (141 as of this morning). I'm going to eat light today so tomorrow I should be back to ticker weight of 140. From there it's all downhill!

I forgot to weigh myself (weird huh?) this morning, because I running late. TOM is on its way and I'm pretty sure the scale hasn't budged or gone up. I hate my scale.

Decided not to way myself this week because TOM visisted on Wed. I always have some weight gain during this time, so I am going to skip weigh in and do it next week. Have a good weekend!!:carrot:

Back down to 140.0!!! With motivation and determination I'll see the 130's by Monday!!!

GREAT JOB, Allison!!!!! That is AWESOME! Ladies -- we can all do this! This is all proof -- kepp up the good work! We've got about 30 days left in the challenge! Let's make every single day COUNT!

Down 1 lb.:carrot: 10lbs to go to ONEderland.

Well i am up 2 pounds but I already had breakfast and TOM is here so 2 pounds is not that bad maybe by wednesday I will be down:crossed:

edit:
sorry i am up 1 pound not 2
