I haven't been great with food the first couple days this month, but it's been acceptable. I have a food plan for the next 2 days, so it's just a matter of sticking to the plan. DS and I started C25K to get him ready for his first 5K. It'll be fun to run with him and do some races this summer. Plus, it's almost like interval training this first few weeks. That should help with weight loss.

Alright so I am going for another 6lb loss hopefully I can over due it this month and not under do it like in March

April 1 my weight was 277.5

Today is my usual weigh in day, and the scale read 275.0, a loss of 2.5 lbs

I haven't drank as much water as I'd liked to today, and I could fall asleep till 3am this morning, it's now comming onto 10pm so I'm going to take some kalms and try to get to bed earlier tonight so I can be up early tomorrow.

I shall be weighing in on Sunday the 10th.

Hope everyone is doing well xoxo

carved: You've been added below. Good luck this month!

OhMyDogs: Nice loss!!

candy love: I feel your pain; I frequently have a very hard time falling asleep at night. I hope you get some better rest tonight.

MsP: Hope things are going well so far this week for you.


I finally got my whoosh this morning, and was down 2 lbs

Ugh. Today was craptastic. Binge central.

It will not continue tomorrow.

DS and I did day 2 of C25K yesterday and it's still a hit with him. Food was good until late night. Had a couple pices of chocolate and a few chips. The scale didn't show any negative effects, but I can't get into a bad habit of doing that.
We leave tonight for IL once again for my other grandma's service. 2 days out of town is usually pretty bad for my weight, but I'm going to try to be more mindful and make more careful choices!
Feeling good otherwise....

I'm jumping in a little late.

My goal for April is to lose 5lbs-SW: 134-and get into the 120's (for good!).

I'm going to a benefit in LA for a long weekend mid-month which is going to challenging to say the least, so I'm hoping to get 3-4lbs out of the way before then...

My SW: 223 GW: 215 So I hope to lose 8 LBS this month.

Alright- just found the trhead can I jump in? Even if I can't make the official list

Starting weight was: 196 GW: 187

Goals:
1. 187
2. Stick to my plan daily (1200 calories, 30-60 mins exercise)

Weighed in at 214 today (started at 216). So, that's good news! Staying within my 1600, too. Although my weekly cheat day is Thursday (home opener!) and I have every intention of focusing exclusively on the beer and encased meats food groups-- hopefully, this won't set me too far back.

1. Stay within 1600 cals-- yes!
2. Lose 8lbs-- 2 down, 6 to go!

ohmydogs - congrats on the niiiiice loss! I hope I can do the same this week

Candylove - I hate not being able to sleep, it seems to mess with me for up to two days after. Hope you have many zzzzzz's over the weekend

Chickadee - awesome woosh!!

Jasonslea - Hope things are going better for you

Scout - great loss!!! You'll get to 8lbs in no time



Okay so weigh in day isn't till Saturday, I'm hoping for a 2lbs loss, fingers crossed. On the other front I've been staying perfectly on plan so far (yay) One of my goals is to get through April with 100% compliance (inc. over Easter)

JuliaTN, VickieLou and risephoenixrise, you've been added to the list below!

JasonsLea: I hope today was a better day for you

MsP: Glad the C25K is going so well, and don't beat yourself up too much over a few chips and chocolate. I know you won't let it derail you. Travel safely, and stay strong!

scout83: Great loss! Have fun at the game

Lani: Thank you! And awesome job staying on plan... I will keep my fingers crossed for your weigh-in!


The scale has been up the past two days for me, for no apparent reason . I have been completely on plan, so I can only figure sodium? I drank a ton of water today, and so hoping to see it back down tomorrow.

I'm trying to find a pattern in my weight loss to find the key to consistency. Think I'll start adding on exercise average for the week to see if there is a correlation. Is there anyone who has consistently lost up to 2 lbs a week? If so, PLEASE tell me how to do it!
