Thank you very much! Staying off the scales was a Big Deal but I'm glad I've done it
Thankyou for getting this challenge going
Awesome job!! 🎉
I would love some tips on staying off the scale as I have gone up 1/2 a pound and then stayed there for 2 days . . . which is frustrating because I have been following my plan strictly.
Happy Easter 🐰 to All!! Wishing you all a wonderful day, hopefully the sun is shining where you are today.
My plan is to spend some time out doors and enjoy the beautiful spring weather.
So far I'm down 1 more pound since last report, but that is up 1 pound. I'm a little frustrated because I have been strictly on plan. I know it happens and I need to stop daily weigh-ins, but I am curious to see my progress. 🤞
So I am planning to stay positive and keep the plan. 😉

I keep the laundry basket on top of the scales, so I can't actually see them;
and I make the first thing I do in the morning is take a tablet with a huge glass of water ~ I'd Never weigh myself with all that heavy water inside me!!!
Britt I am sorry to hear that you had a couple rough days, I hope things have improved! Also, I hope that you are able to get things moving again, being constipated is awful!
queenbee It is frustrating when you stay on plan and don't see the rewards on the scale, especially when you weigh each day. I think that I am going to take some time off the scale this week, but will probably have a hard time sticking to it.
I hope that everyone had a nice weekend!
I am very disappointed in myself. Yesterday I binged for the first time in months. Two glasses of wine turned in to, well, I lost count. I woke up drunk this morning. I ate several pieces of cheesecake, I ate dinner rolls. I was out of control. If that wasn't bad enough I made myself throw up after. This was the first time I had a drink since Jan 1st and its apparent now that I do have a binge drinking problem. I am disgusted with myself.
Well guys, no breakthrough. If anything, a regression. Pretty disappointed, 152.6 today. Haven't lost a single thing for a week and a half and indeed seem to have gained almost a pound (?!). To top it all off, it's the first Monday since New Year's Day I haven't met my goal (should have been 152 today). I kind of want to cry. I would just work harder to catch up but we're going on vacation for 10 days starting Thursday and you all know how hard it is to stay on any kind of plan away from home!
ETA: I see we posted at the same time, kfunk! I'm sorry, that's a horrible feeling. I hope things get better for you soon (and for Britt and queenbee too!).

New to the forum, just started Medifast today, so I am IN for a challenge! Maybe a little optimistic, but I am aiming for a 15 lb. loss by the end of May.
Um... whaaaaat?! I weighed myself again at lunchtime since I had an inkling it might prove useful and voila, 151.6. So... that's good? Hopefully it'll stick!!
I just realized that I never came back for updates on this thread...again, lol. I'm bad about checking in regularly on these seasonally-lengthed challenges. But, I'm here now! I'm about 10 pages behind, though. So, welcome to all the newcomers and great job & keep it up to everyone who has been checking in all along!
I've lost 12.2 lbs so far in this challenge, as of this morning, so I'm pleased with the progress so far! I'm hoping it continues at this rate and that I will have to update my ticker with a Part Two, but we will see. I'll make sure to check in here with you guys a little more frequently from now on.

Hi girls
Ophelia, thank you darling for checking in
I am so crazy busy right now and sorry I have not written. As of today, aim going on 17k steps. I just want this to be over@ lol I have a photographer coming tomorrow and then an open house on Sunday so as you can imagine things are busy as sin.
I so love to come in and read all your news! You know, we still have 2 weeks to go so let's kick it!
Hope you all had a great Easter and seriously, I can't be able to come in and time t o write again but I hope so very soon. Thinking of you guys, stay strong and stay tough, we still have two weeks to go!
Hi ladies, hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Wanted to wish you all a great day
Amy
kfunk somehow I missed that. You know girl, I did that one time over the holidays and I ended up eating almost an entire cake! Yeap! I woke up so miserable it's not funny, I know the feeling..ugh. I came in and posted to the chicks the next day and they really helped pick me up. It's a new day and I hope it ends up being a good one for you! Let the other day go, it's over! We all can sometimes hit a bump or bumps in the road, it happens..........feel better
Rosinate Oh what a wonderful tip! lol : ) Thank you for sharing with us....as for the thread it is totally my pleasure , I really enjoy sharing our journeys.....thank you for being here..smile.
queenbee The bugger scale likes to hold onto things sometimes, hang in there, it will eventually give up!
Britt I am glad your feeling better and hope your having a wonderful sunny day there.
Ophelia What a great loss! It is always such a pleasure to watch your progress, thanks for sharing : ) Hope that you had a great Easter too, that you all did.
Laura yay! Your in a new decade! That is great, let us know how the shake up goes.
jessie wtg on getting right back to it after the festival!
princess oh good! Glad it went back down for you, keep up the good work.
As always sorry if I missed anyone. Things went well today. Easter was very nice, I did have more than planned though and now back to it. I have been very active so hope that helps, have not done a WI since after Easter. Just focusing on each day and then will go on it when I feel ready. I hope that you are all well and having a great day, looking forward to catching up soon!
Hey, Weekend! Great job on picking up your activity! After doing a lot of walking and running on Sunday, I am really itching to get back into exercise as well. I just want to make sure I can go at least a month without binging before I start focusing my attention elsewhere! I can't wait to hit a month! I'm glad you had a good Easter
I am currently 10.4 pounds from my goal of 148 by Memorial Day. I seem to be losing about a pound a week (I'm a little over 20 pounds down since November), so I don't know if that will happen in the six weeks we have left, but I would definitely be happy!
I would just work harder to catch up but we're going on vacation for 10 days starting Thursday and you all know how hard it is to stay on any kind of plan away from home! 
So, welcome to all the newcomers and great job & keep it up to everyone who has been checking in all along!
