Default Mother's Day Challenge!

No, you don't have to be a mother to participate in a Mother's Day Challenge.

Choose to strive for a specific scale weight, a particular measurement, drinking more water, an exercise goal, following your food plan for the next 7 weeks--anything you want.

Post your goal here, and I'll bump the thread up periodically so we can measure our progress. And, if you don't make your goal, don't worry! It's all about the journey.

I'm in - I'm aiming for 15 down by then (that will put me at 148lb). I'm happy for this challenge because I'll be on a cruise for the first week of May and this will help keep me in check.

Best of luck to everyone who joins!

I'm in.
My goal is to lose 15lbs by Mother's Day.
I actually just took a calendar for the rest of the year and wrote down all of my mini goals. Mother's Day happens to be one of them so this works out great.
Good Luck Everyone!

I don't mean to sound like a dolt, but when the heck is Mother's Day? I've never paid much attention to this since I grew up celebrating no holidays.

edit
Nevermind, after googling it I found it's May 14 this year . I'm in foooor.... let's say 20lbs. I guess I'll just now start count the weight loss from my own March goal from now until.

I'm in for 20lbs. That will be halfway through my own next 10 week goal so it would be a great marker to see how im doing on that journey.
