Is it too late to join? My goal for April 1st, when I started my journey (Jan. 28), was 25 pounds.
I have lost 17.6 lbs. and would like to adjust that amount now.
So, I'll say 15.2 lbs. That will get me out of the 250's!

277.8/260.2/245

Well, I've dropped 3 lbs in 10 days. Not bad. Aiming for another 2 lbs this week. I'm on February break from my job (teacher), but am still working on graduate work. I love break because then I can really get in some good workouts (I tend to be so exhausted after working with 2nd grade students all day), and not grab breakfasts and lunches on the go.

2/8/13 - 195 lbs
2/18/13 - 192 lbs

I didn't WI last week so hadn't updated but good news today and feeling like my goal is still realistic.

When I joined the challenge I didn't really have anything happening on April 1st but now I do! Well March 31st.... I am going to my brother's house for Easter. Most of my family lives near him and I haven't seen them for 5 years. So it will be the first time I have seen everyone since I have lost 86lbs! I hope to say 90lbs by then ;)

Changing goal, since my loss has slowed down. :(

Good luck all! :hug:

Monday is my WI day but I had a tummy bug over the weekend. So, this week's weigh in wouldn't be accrate. Will weigh in and update next Monday. I may check in on Friday, as that will mark the end of my first month.

Halfway there!!!

More progress CW on 02/26/12: 155

10lbs to go and about 4 weeks, yeah, not going to happen. The 8lbs from above would be nice, but most likely I'll be at 150 on April 1. Fine. I like the challenge but don't get too caught up in these things when they don't happen - assuming that I am losing. If not, then I'd be upset, but it's hard to not be happy about losing weight - even if it's not a much as I wanted. I started this challenge at 161, so being down 6lbs so far is cool and if I make it to 150, that's 11lbs. I'll take it!

I think TOM is getting to me this week, but keeping my head up and moving forward. For once in my life I've completed 2 months of "being healthy" and still feel like I have plenty of willpower left. Usually this is when I give up, but not happening this time!!

April Challenge
 

I would loooove to be 170 by April 1st! A number I don't think I've seen.. well, ever. :)

Here I go!

TONTUS94-I am excited for you. I can't imagine the feeling of having lost that much and not seeing your family in so long. They are going to be shocked, taking pictures, etc..Have you thought of any makeover things to do before Easter like haircut, highlights, etc? why not go in looking your best? Also the mini makeover could boost your motivation to make it an even 90 or more pounds by then. :D Best wishes to you!

I started this current challenge at 269. I am now 263!! Goal is 255 for Easter. That is 8 pounds in 4 1/2 weeks. I am stepping up my exercise. (From not really exercising at all to at least 15 minutes a day) Baby steps...

Update....

Very happy with my progress so far, although I did just change my goal weight because for some reason, it was only 14 lbs? I don't even remember if that was on purpose, but in any case, I think it's still very realistic, and hope to be a few pounds below that by the end.

ok, I am doing too many challenges, I was thinking this was a 15 lb challenge I was doing! lol!

In any case, since I'm only 1.2 away from my original goal of 229, I'll leave the changed goal for now.

Congrats :)

NOT making goal, at this rate! Up and down for the past couple of weeks! Just hoping to get into the 240's, at this point!

It's been awhile since I've lost more than a pound in a week and I lost 1.7 this week which is very exciting. It also means I SHOULD hit my goal no problem.

REALLY?! This is getting old!!!

Update! Down A Pound! :carrot:
Actually I posted my 263 close to two weeks ago, then was up a bit, down a bit but never got below that 263 until now. I doubt I will make 255 like I wanted for Easter but will keep on plugging on. Any loss is a good loss!
Good luck to us all!

I didn't check in last week, I was really busy! Last week I was only down 2oz anyway...

I am no longer obese! I needed to get under 174lbs to be only overweight :dizzy: That is a great(but weird) accomplishment!

Loganandlivsmom Well I had planned on getting a mani/pedi before I see my family but I think I will follow your advice and get something new done to my hair too!

Here's to a great week for everyone! :carrot:

I weighed 238 yesterday at my official weigh-in, but then ate bad yesterday and today, PLUS didn't exercise. I need to snap out of this mental funk!

TONTUS94--I am glad you are going to get your hair done too! why not? Sometimes just trimming the ends, a blow out or some highlights etc...can do wonders for your outlook. Congrats on being "only overweight" LOL It has been ages for me since I haven't been obese. That is quite an accomplishment in itself!:carrot:

Me-down another pound! One more pound to the big 4-0. It's over two weeks to get to our April 1st goal. I am probably not going to make mine, but I am OK with it. As long as it's in the downward trend I am happy! :D

I am very disappointed with myself this morning. I did perfect all week then Saturday hits and I overate and didn't work out and Sunday followed the same pattern but I did get a 3 mile walk in. So after overeating, lots of salt and no BM for 3 days(I have issues in this area) I am up a couple of pounds.

Today I am getting back on track! My goal is to make it through this weekend on track. It seems harder on the weekends with my husband and kids at home. I see them eating and it makes me lose my mind for a few hours :devil:

I am leaving my ticker at my weight pre-weekend as a reminder......

OMG, I'm so excited, it's TOM and I ate way too much for dinner last night, but besides that I had a good week. I even went for my first run in over 4 months on Saturday. And the results are good. I lost over 2.5 pounds somehow this week and officially met my goal, crazy!!!! I'm going to see if I can get out of the 180s now.
