Lose 5 for March - TOTAL LOST - 156.1

[Cruise04]

Time for March and the next Lose 5 challenge.
If anyone has not done a challenge, this is a great first one to do. I'll track changes weekly posting them on Wednesday's if not more (I'm a little addicted if you have never noticed :confused3 :teeth: )

I've grabbed the clip art from Sunny's (plutosmyfav) clipart file (THANKS). Just copy and paste the whole link - it's all ready.

http://sunnyshopper.com/5forMarch.jpg

Just copy the "specs" for the clipart:
{img]http://sunnyshopper.com/5forMarch.jpg[/img} - and replace the { with [ and the } with ].

Here's the breakdown for your updates (I'll change the colors tomorrow):

.1 - .4 lbs. lost will be in Dark Olive Green
.5 - 2.4 lbs. lost will be in Green
2.5 - 4.9 lbs. lost will be in Yellow Green
5 - 5.4 lbs. lost will be in Lime Green
5.5 - 8.4 lbs. lost will be in Sea Green
8.5 - 10.4 lbs. lost will be in Pale Green
10.5 lbs. and over will be in Orange (representing Gold (as in Pot of Gold))

So please sign up if you'd like to join us and let me know if you wish to go for more than 5 (which is absolutely not a problem).

Chris

eh, 8 for march please

[engagedatWDW]

Sign me up too. I'll sign up for 5 but hope for a few more.

[WDWLVR]

I'm in for 5. Came close in February with 4.5 so will work harder to get this one.

[knovak]

I'm in - I sure hope to lose more than 5 - however I have a regional meeting in Las Vegas for 5 days - so I sure hope I can stick with WW that week and keep on LOSING!

[RunningLilo]

Chris,
Add me too, please. This will be my first monthly challenge so 5 will be plenty for me! ;)

Thanks!

[Nanabug02]

Count me in! I'm going for 8 lbs in March. :banana:

[dthogue]

Count me in - 10 for the month of March

[DJBounce]

Hi Chris! Sign me up, too. This is my first challenge so I think 5 is a good starting point. Plus Lent starts tomorrow and I'm giving up all sweets :earseek: !!

Darcey

[kmp1191]

Ok...I'm in!! Didn't do good in Feb at all! Lost 2, Gained 2 - that would be a big fat 0!! :mad: this month will be better!! Starting fresh!!
Put me in for 5. (hopefully I'll exceed it!) pixiedust:

[frogmommy]

Hey Chris-

Please sign me up again for 5. Hoping that I'll actually make it this month!!

Thanks!!!

[Miandrea]

[jayna22]

Count me in for 5!
Thanks!
Jana

[TWyn]

This is my first challenge, so I'm looking forward to it. I gave up evening snacking for Lent. Maybe that'll give me a jumpstart. Put me down for eight, please. Thank you!

Tammy

[NCRedding]

Hey Chris: Please put me down for losing 5 pounds this month.

Thanks for running the challenge

[Maude4Disney]

Count me in. I'm going to go for 5 again.. and hopefully no yo-yoing this month. :crazy2: Good luck everyone!!!

[mrsschlep]

Count me in for 5 too please!! :thumbsup2

[donac]

I'm in for 5. I lost 5 last month and it was the first downward movement in 4 months but then again I didn't go up in those 4 months either so that was good.

[Suzy Mouse]

I'd rather not discuss my February...but I'll try again for 5 in March!

[goldcupmom]

I'll try for 5 again this month. So far, I'm not very good at it!

[cheerful chickadee]

sign me up! I'm going to keep it at 5lbs this month

[lilouisianagal]

I'm in for 5

[RhondaW]

Count me in for 5 too! I am going to try!

[sap1227]

[eeyore25]

Thanks Chris for putting this together....I am going to try again this month....hopefully the scale will start to move again!!!

[RoyalCinderella]

Count me in for 5. I don't weigh weekly, but I'll check back in a few weeks. Thanks!

[disneyfanz04]

Thanks for running this challenge...it really keeps me motivated.

I think I am going to try for 15 this month. I lost 11.4 last month, and I have started training for the Minnie(and there are 3 more days in March ;) ) so I really think I can make it to 15 this month!!

Good Luck to everyone!!! :thumbsup2

[RAMWDWFAN]

Sign me up for five please!! :cheer2:

[themudd4]

Mark me down for 5...planning on more like 20 tho!

Good luck everyone!

[ohMom]

[kcork1026]

Please count me in....I have lost 16lbs. since Jan 2. So 5 sounds good for March! :thumbsup2

[Foxfiregrrl]

Please put me down for 5. I really hope I can make it this month. Didn't do so good last month, but it is a new month, so I'm hoping for the best :sunny:

[Zim]

Well, since I'm doing the March Exercise Challenge, it only seems right to do this too! I'll go for five!

[elan]

I'll try for 6 again this month. (there's no more GS cookies in the house - so I'm hoping for a few more lbs than last month).

[michellek1]

I'll try! This is my challenge so I think I will try for 5 lbs.

[Lindamary123]

Please add me for this month.

Thanks!!
Linda

[schatz5k]

Count me in. I'm shooting for 7 but I'll be happy with 5

[Cruise04]

Never too late to sign up!!!!

I hope no one minds that I automatically started this one again this month. If someone wants to do a month, please let me know or I'll keep going. I really like doing this challenge because I love seeing how everyone else is doing. You guys are HUGE motivators for me!!!!!! (Even though this is the first month I choked and didn't post a loss :crazy2: :crazy2: ).

Right now we are looking at trying to lose a combined total of:

219 POUNDS!!!!!!

That would be one of me plus more (I can't believe I can finally say that!!!!).

[bigolive9]

I am going to sign up for 5 this month. I did not try very hard last month, so I am extra committed for this month!

[AlreadyexcitedGrammy]

Hey - I would l really like to add to the total loss of the "Monthly" challenges - I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ready to get 5 off and sounds like you all are too !

Count me in for 5 DOWNWARD on my ticker :cool1:

[KathyFP]

Put me in for 10. Since I just started, I am hopefull that the weight will come off a little quicker.

I need somethung to hold me acountable.

[KathyFP]

Put me down for 10. I am hoping that since I just started the weight will come off quicker.

[Misty89]

please put me down for 6lbs I want to make goal by the end of the month. :sunny:


Tina

[JnEsWDWMom]

~Lynn~

[Zippa D Doodah]

This is my first time partcipating... Hope its not too late for March. Put me down for 10

[binkyboots]

as of this morning I'm 4/8 :banana:

[knovak]

Only .2/5 this week - but it's better than gaining.

[disneyfanz04]

Weighed in this morning....and down 3.2 for March so far.


Good Luck everyone!!!

[Lindamary123]

My first weigh in for the month is 2.8! Good luck to all! :thumbsup2

[DJBounce]

My first weigh in for March... I have lost 1 pound!

Darcey

[Cruise04]

It's not too late to sign up. I'm going to add everyone else that has signed up yet. I'm down .5 right now for the month.

Good luck and anyone can join this challenge at any time during the month.

[JnEsWDWMom]

My first weigh in for March and I'm down 1.6 pounds! Downward movement on that scale is a wonderful sight. Keep it up, everyone!

~Lynn~

[decaff38]

Please add me!! I'm a little late but going to give it a try!! I am actually down 2 already. Thanks

[aero99]

[disneysnowflake]

:wizard:

[Zim]

Update for me - 1.8 pounds so far!

[sap1227]

Weigh-in this morning and I am down 3.5!

Christy

[taeja71]

I thought I'd step on the scale and see if there was ANY change. Well, does the low side of 130/ high side of 129 count? I still can't believe my weight has nOT changed since mid February. Crazy.

I will get through this. :thumbsup2

[kmp1191]

I'm down 3!
3/5

[RunningLilo]

Had a loss this morning! Ya-hoo!

Currently...2/5 gone!

Keep going everyone. :yay:

[KathyFP]

I am going to check in weight on Monday ams.

I am down 2 lbs - yeah!!

How I wish that it was more

[disneyfanz04]

I am down 2 lbs - yeah!!

How I wish that it was more

2 lbs. is awesome!!! When I don't lose as much as I hope to, I try and look at it in a different perspective...you lost 8 sticks of butter :eek: !!!

Way to go!!! :thumbsup2

[mom23boys]

I was wondering if I can join. I have been doing WW, but I need more motivation.

Can you count me in for 7 for March

[NikiM20]

Id like to join...5 lbs for march

[jayna22]

I'm only down .5lbs this week. The good news is that I did get to change my clippie! Yay! Next week will be better.

That puts me at .5/5.
Thanks!
jana

[cheerful chickadee]

down 2.5 at weigh in yesterday!!! I can change my clippie now to the 40lb one!! :banana: :cheer2: :bounce: :yay:

[RhondaW]

I am down 1.2 this week. I hope that it doesn't come back.

[disneyfanz04]

I'm only down .5lbs this week. The good news is that I did get to change my clippie! Yay! Next week will be better.

That puts me at .5/5.
Thanks!
jana


&

down 2.5 at weigh in yesterday!!! I can change my clippie now to the 40lb one!!

The new clippie looks good on both of you!!! Awesome job!!!!



GREAT JOB TO A BUNCH OF LOSERS!!!!!! ;)

[donac]

I am down 1/5 for the month so far. With the lose from last month I was also able to change my clippie. With the lose from this month I am only 1 pound away from onderland. I hope I hit it soon.

This board will be the first to know.

[Cruise04]

Good job on those new clippies ladies!!!!!!! WEIGH to go!!

I'm still only down the .5 also for this week. TOM is on it's way so I don't think it will go down anymore until next week but maybe this will be the surprising month :rotfl: :rotfl:

Keep up the good work everyone! :woohoo: :woohoo:
Chris

[goldcupmom]

Down .5 for the week. Not much, but with a surprise visit from TOM, I"m not too disappointed. At least it is something!

[michellek1]

Wow! I'm down 5 lbs. my first week. Guess that shows how much I need to lose since the first 5 came off so easy.

[elan]

Down 2 lbs for me. :woohoo:

[LuvTigger]

Could you put me down for 10? I've lost 2 since Monday (just started my program).

Thanks! What a great motivator!

[engagedatWDW]

Just checking in for the first time this month. Got on the scale yesterday and so far I've lost 2 lbs! 02/05

[Cruise04]

Good job everyone - keep up the great work!!!!

I'm down another .5 pounds this morning so I updated my count to 1 since I was updating. I'm happy about that especially since TOM is on my tail!!!!!

Chris

[DJBounce]

I weighed myself today and I'm down another 1.5 lbs, that puts me at 2.5/5!! Yeah!!! :goodvibes

[binkyboots]

saturday means weigh in, I'm now 7/8!

[Lindamary123]

Please add 0.8 more for me. Total 3.6/5. Almost there! :sunny:

[disneyfanz04]

Down .2 this week, not as much as a hoped but a loss is a loss so I'll take it!!! That makes me 3.4/15....hope I make it!!!

Good Luck everyone!!!

[aero99]

Down another 2 pounds so I am 3/5. I just need 2 more pounds to be overweight instead of obese. :cool1:

Melissa

edited since my official weigh day is Sunday.

[knovak]

I am 2/5 now for this month - yipee! :goodvibes

[bigolive9]

I am up 3 pounds!! :eek: :scared1: We have been getting ready to move this week, so we have been going out to eat a lot. Needless to say, I have not been making the best choices. :guilty: I will have a chat with DH when he gets home so that we can start making better food decisions.

[NCRedding]

I am late checking in. I've lost, but some of it is due to a stomach bug. Hope I will continue to maintain the loss once I feel better.

2.5/5

[JnEsWDWMom]

Ok I was 1.6/5 but gained 2 pounds this week. Does that mean I'm a minus now? I guess I'm just back at 0/5. :guilty: How discouraging!

~Lynn~

[Cruise04]

To those that gained - it is discouraging but you can get that off and a little more. Just pick up your water intake a bit, that will help. Good luck.

I'm stuck at 1 pound off with TOM almost done so that means hopefully I'll have a nice loss on Wednesday.....HOPEFULLY is the key word there!!!! :)

[KathyFP]

I weighed in this morning at Curves. I was hoping for a little better, but so far this month, I have lost 6. Although I am on track with my challange, I really was hoping for more.

[kmp1191]

I gained 2. Birthday week and I had no control!! :guilty:

Back to hitting it hard and heavy!! No more cheating!!

[Maude4Disney]

Up 1. :sad2: Im getting too frustrated. :furious:

[mrsschlep]

I am still 0/5 with this challenge :rolleyes2
I have been stuck right around 174-176 for 3 months now...it's so frustrating! It just won't budge...UGH! TOM isn't helping much this week...I wonder if I would've seen a loss if he hadn't shown up? Who invited him anyway? :confused3

[mom23boys]

I lost 3.4 pounds today at WW.

[sap1227]

I am down 1.5 which makes me meeting my goal of 5 for the month!!! I am so excited that I finally met a challenge around here!

Christy

[cheerful chickadee]

ooh I was really not looking forward to this weigh-in, I cheated all last week, I don't know what my problem was. I felt guilty all week and was beating myself up pretty bad about it BUT BUT BUT at weigh-in I weighed in 2.5 pounds less! I'm at 5/5 right now for the month. Had to be all that exercise!

:woohoo:

[Nanabug02]

Just got back from weigh in and lost 2 lbs. So my total is 2/8 so far.

Keep chugging! :banana:

[ohMom]

i'm down only .5 lb so far --- but i'm still comitted to this!

[jayna22]

I don't know how I did it, but I lost two pounds this week. I'll take it. That puts me at 2.5/5.

Thanks!
Jana

[decaff38]

2 more gone!! that puts me a 4/5!! and 2 weeks to go!!

[Cruise04]

Well I got on the scale this morning to not good news. I am up 4 pounds again. I'm on the last day of my TOM and I'm thinking that's it - I'm hoping anyway. I did get up early this morning and worked out for 30 minutes (did a Leslie Sansone Walk and Kick DVD). I'm upset with myself as I know others are too. We can do this guys!!!!! WE CAN DO THIS!!!!!!!!!!

Chris

[AlreadyexcitedGrammy]

Wed is my WI day - I really am not looking forward to it but any ol' amount down will put a SMILE on my face...................

[disneyfanz04]

I HATE TOM!!!! Don't worry, YOU CAN DO IT!!!! I dealt with TOM last week...not fun!!! You will do better next week. :thumbsup2

[goldcupmom]

I'm officially 2/5 now. YEAH!!! Finally!!!

[RhondaW]

I meant to post yesterday and forgot! I am 4/5! I just hope that it stays away. I seem to be going up 3 then down 3....

[elan]

I've lost another 1.5 lb. 3.5 for the month. :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc

I'm really beginning to like these challenges.

[Cruise04]

Well I'm down 2 pounds from yesterday but that still puts me up a pound from when I started this month. So there is hope!!!!! :)

Chris

[Zippa D Doodah]

My goal for March is 10 pounds. I am happy to report that I have lost 4 so far :banana:

[DJBounce]

WHOO HOO! I've lost 4 lbs so far! Yeah!!

[goldcupmom]

My scale shows down 4.5 from 3/1. I'll take it, but I'm not sure it will last. Might be a fluke, but it registered that 4x.

[LuvTigger]

I FINALLY got the "whoosh" I've been waiting for and lost another 2 pounds! So I'm 4/10 now.

[Cruise04]

Good job everyone. Keep up the good work and have a great St. Patty's Day!!!!!

Chris

[BamaBaloo]

Lost one after a week of staying the same. Don't think I'm gonna hit 10, but 5 is possible.

[JnEsWDWMom]

I don't officially weigh until Sunday, but I just wanted you all to know that we went out to Texas Roadhouse (Possibly the worst place to eat if you're on a diet beside maybe the ice cream shop) and I was able to order a salad no dressing and grilled chicken. Just knowing that Sunday was coming and wanting so bad to post a loss made everything seem so not worth it! Is that crazy? Anyway, thanks for your support!

~Lynn~

[Dory's Twin]

It's already the 17th, but I can sure try to get 5 off of my thighs! Even if I only get a couple....it's a win!

{img]http://sunnyshopper.com/5forMarch.jpg[/img} - and replace the { with [ and the } with ].

[Dory's Twin]

It's already the 17th, but I can sure try to get 5 off of my thighs! Even if I only get a couple....it's a win!

[binkyboots]

yay!! 3lbs gone, I'm 10/8 :Pinkbounc

[Lindamary123]

I lost 0.4 this week. I hope next week will be more. :thumbsup2

[disneyfanz04]

Lost 2lbs this week, so now I am 5.4/15 for March...probably won't make it to 15lbs this month, but I am gonna get as close as I can. I am picking up the exercise this week, so hopefully that will help!!! :thumbsup2

[LuvTigger]

Woo hoo! Just lost another 1.5 this morning. That makes me 5.5/10 for this month so far.

[Misty89]

with all my whining this week, it ended on a happy note. Even after eating like a fool....I lost 1.6 lbs this AM at WW - WI !
so...march total so far, 4.2 lbs. :goodvibes


Tina

[JnEsWDWMom]

Yeah! A loss this week! I'm now 2/5. I don't think I'll make 5/5 but I'm gonna try! I want a new clippie! I'm tired of the wish member one. Thanks to Chris for all her encouragement.

~Lynn~

[Cruise04]

Dory's Twin - it's never too late to start. If you want to put the clippie in your sigi then just change the { to [ and the } to ] at the line and it will put the picture in. I can't post it here the way it should go or it will just show the picture. If you need more help, PM me.

Good job you guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You all rocked this week!!!!!!!!!! I'm hoping for a loss too. I really worked very hard working out this week and worked VERY hard on my foods this weekend. I even resisted TONS of donuts at church today. I was very proud of myself.

Great job to Lynn and Tina - I know you guys have been struggling and it has finally paid off - :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

Keep rockin' everyone - got 2 weeks left in the month!
Chris

[frogmommy]

I finally lost some weight!!! :cool1: I'm happy to report that my total for the month is 1/5!!!! :woohoo:

[KathyFP]

[sap1227]

I am down another pound this week, making me 6/5 this month!!

Christy

[mrsschlep]

I am down 1 lb this week...making me 1/5...there's still 12 days left in the month...time to work even harder I guess...

[RhondaW]

I am down 3 for 5 so far this month!!.....two to go!

[cheerful chickadee]

well ladies I'm going to have to take a break from my weight loss journey for a while, not forever...just for about 9 months!!! I just found out I am preggo! I just want to thank you ladies for all the support over the last few months, these threads really made me stick with my program. To all the new people joining WISH or starting a new weight loss program, don't give up! I've lost 45 lbs over the past few months on weight watchers and have never been healthier or happier. I will be sticking with my nutrition choices and will check in once and while so I don't lose "it" and it will be easier to drop the weight after I have the baby.

[Miandrea]

Down 2 for the month 2/5...I was in Disney for March break and it was tough...I actually gained weight while I was there last week (I should be 4/5...oh well, there is always this week!)

Andrea

[ohMom]

i did a WI today - i'm down a total of 2/5

[lovetheparks]

This is my first challenge - I know I'm a little late in the month but very motivated right now!

So far I'm 1/5

[mrsschlep]

Awesome news Cheerful - CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!! :yay: :yay: :yay:

Miandrea - you didn't do bad at Disney if you only gained 2 pounds - good job!!!!

Will get ya added lovetheparks - welcome!

So far I'm steady again. I'm very high stressed today due to something that happened this morning and I want to eat everything in site but so far I'm doing okay. I'm trying not to think about what my tummy is telling my brain. UGH :)

Chris

[Zippa D Doodah]

I have now lost 7 pounds for March :banana: :banana:

[engagedatWDW]

I got on the scale this morning. I'm down 4 lbs this month! 4/5

[jayna22]

I am back from Miami and I'm afraid I gained two pounds while I was there. Ick. I'm not sure how that happened, but they are definitely there. That puts me back at .5/5. I don't think I'll make it this month.
Jana

[Cruise04]

Sorry to hear that Jayna. I'm happy to report that I'm down 1.5 pounds. However since I gained a pound then I'm only down .5 for the month. But there's still another week and I'm really watching myself again. Hope it's positive!!!!! :)

[LuvTigger]

One more pound lost for me. I'm 6.5/10 now.

I don't think I'm going to lose another 3.5 pounds in the next week, but this was a great challenge! I'm glad to at least have lost the five!

[Lindamary123]

Please add 1.8 for me for a total of 5.8! I made the March challenge!! :thumbsup2
Thanks for the support! :sunny:

[JnEsWDWMom]

No loss for me this week so I'm still 2/5. But as my son says, "It's better to stay the same than to gain!" :woohoo: Pretty catchy, huh?

~Lynn~ who still has one more week

[RAMWDWFAN]

I'm down .5 pound this week. It's funny because when I weighed myself in the middle of the week, I was down three pounds. But life is. I can say that my clothes are fitting better though. I'll be heading to WDW on Tuesday and am determined not to gain. I plan on working out at the SSR fitness center and doing as much walking as I can.

[aero99]

I'm down another pound so 4/5 total. I haven't worked out in two weeks so I am pretty happy with the lost.

[disneyfanz04]

I am down another 1.6 this week, so that puts me at a total of 7/15. I won't make my goal, but I think I set it too high for myself anyway. I will be happy if I make it to 10lbs for the month. I am off to a good start...I walked/ran 3 miles today, AND did 25 minutes on my elliptical.

Good Luck to everyone else!!! :thumbsup2

[lovetheparks]

Wow everyone is doing so great!

I'm 3/5 now so it's not looking good but I'm going to Curves for the next 3 days after work so we'll see!

[disneyfanz04]

well ladies I'm going to have to take a break from my weight loss journey for a while, not forever...just for about 9 months!!! I just found out I am preggo! I just want to thank you ladies for all the support over the last few months, these threads really made me stick with my program. To all the new people joining WISH or starting a new weight loss program, don't give up! I've lost 45 lbs over the past few months on weight watchers and have never been healthier or happier. I will be sticking with my nutrition choices and will check in once and while so I don't lose "it" and it will be easier to drop the weight after I have the baby.



CONGRATS!!!!!! I wish you the best of luck with your new bundle of joy!!! Hope to see you back in 9 months!!! :goodvibes

Down 1 - thank you stomach flu!

5/5...hopefully it won't come back.....like the stomach flu!!

[Cruise04]

Good job everyone. I'm afraid this month wasn't the greatest for me again and I was really hoping it would be a good one. I have to get back to tracking my food because two months in a row with yo-yoing isn't good for me. I'm putting a final number down until Friday.

But everyone else is doing great!!!!! Keep up the good work.

[mom23boys]

Lost another 1.6 pounds today so that puts me at 5 so far for the month. :cool1:

Maybe by Friday another 2 will come off. I am going to push to make it. Exercise everyday and COUNT THOSE POINTS.

[mrsschlep]

I maintained again this week...but after my Coldstone ice cream and chinese food binge this weekend I am actually pretty please to see that the scale stayed the same. So I am still 1/5...
Keep up the great work everyone!

Thanks!

[Cruise04]

I'm back at where I was at the beginning of this month. I'm upset but it's okay - at least I didn't gain the 10 I was hoping to lose the last two months!!!!!

Good job everyone. Keep checking in - I'll update daily this week (or more).

[engagedatWDW]

I made my goal! 5/5 Got on the scale this morning and I'm finally down 5 lbs this month! It was tough - between my birthday and extra stress, eating right was not the easiest thing. More good news - I'm able to update my clippie. With 5 lost this month, I've made it to 15 lost total. Woohoo!!

[RhondaW]

I am at -3.4 for the month. I just yo-yo between 3 pounds so hopefully if I am really really good the next three days, I could be at 5!

:guilty: Report:

I have not been with program for 2 weeks. Skipped last weeks meeting :confused3 I went today against my better judgement. T of Month finally came 6 days late :guilty: way bloated and still craving junk food.

I hope to get back on track....since now i will for sure not make lifetime by the end of may...kids and I are going "up north" shopping the next 2 days so i am sure WW re-start will have to wait.

l don't know how exactly to post this but I have some bad news to share, I had a miscarriage last week. My OB said it was nothing I did and that 1 in 4 pregnancies ends in m/c but I still feel terribly sad. I realize it's nature and these things happen, my OB said many times it's because of chromosonal abnormalities or chemical pregnancy but it still feels pretty rotten. I was feeling pretty yucky for a spell so I had stopped exercising and went off my points. I thought maybe I was over-doing it with my exercise and that was making me feel so terrible. One day I could hardly get out of bed, I was so tired and sore, I felt so nauseous, I pretty much stayed in bed all day. The m/c happened that night. My doc assured me that my exercise had nothing to do with the m/c. I'm feeling a little better now (emotionally & physically) and I may join the April challenge. My doc said I could get back to my regular routine as soon as I feel better so I will make April 1st my re-start date. I just wanted to let you all know what happened so if you see me on the April challenge you know why :( On a positive note...DH and I will try again in a few months! You are really a great group here, thanks for all the support!

OH Chickadee Very sorry to hear that :(
I hope you feel much better very soon.... I will say a prayer for you and have you in my thoughts

[Cruise04]

I am so sorry to hear that Chickadee. I will keep you and your family in my prayers!!!!! If when April 1 hits and you aren't up to it, don't push it. Do it when you are ready. We'll be here ready to help!!!!!!!!!!

Well this morning my scale flip flopped and wouldn't stay on a number so I chocked that up to the fact that I wasn't suppose to weigh today. It was down a pound, then up a pound, then at 0 for the month. So I'll just wait until tomorrow.

I went out last night with a bunch of people from Jazzercise, we had a blast, and I did really well with my eating choices so I was very proud of myself. And actually it showed this morning because I wasn't bloated and I feel good today.

Good luck to the rest of you, my final number will be tomorrow and hopefully a tiny loss.

Tina - sorry you have had this struggle. Next month is around the corner and I KNOW you can do it!!!!!! Have fun shopping!

Is anyone else interested in doing the April Lose 5? If not I'll be happy to do it again but I feel like I might be taking it away from someone that wants to do it. Please let me know if you would like to do it. I will be out of town from April 13-23 but I'm going to try to get somewhere and do an update at least once while we are gone as dh is taking the laptop - we're going to Disney's Hilton Head resort - I'm so excited!!!!!!!

I'll try to keep updating today and will do an update tomorrow as well.

I'm so sorry Chickadee. Sending prayers and pixie dust your way. :grouphug:

[RunningLilo]

Please make my total 5/5!!! Thanks!

[goldcupmom]

This morning my scale consistently said I made my 5/5. I won't be weighing tomorrow as I'll be gone in the morning, so this is it for my month.

[jayna22]

As of this morning I've lost another pound. That puts me at 4.5/5. Not quite there, but I'll take it. Tomorrow is a new day and a new month. I'm ready to start fresh.

[donac]

I will post tomorrow in the AM since I weigh in Sat.

[Cruise04]

That will be fine donac. I won't be on until later in the day tomorrow but if you still want to put a total toward this month, please feel free to and let me know when you post. I'll try to re-update again later today.

Oh, and my scale, despite being good yesterday, registered at 0 today. I'm so upset but there is a new month around the corner. I'm having more fun shopping than I did 52 pounds ago so that's what matters.

Thanks
Chris

[DisneyCrazyX5]

I think I am down 2 for the month and 16.6 for the year. Not a great month, but I am having a good year.

[DJBounce]

WHOO HOO! I made my first goal!! 5.5/5!!! I made my exercise challenge goal, too!! This has been a huge motivator for me!! Thanks for all the support! :banana:

[bigolive9]

I think I am down 2 for the month and 16.6 for the year. Not a great month, but I am having a good year.

Good Job! I should have wrote down what I was at on January 1 so I could keep track. That is a great way to keep perspective on the weight loss efforts. Good luck next month!
:cheer2: :cheer2:

[JnEsWDWMom]

I'm one more pound down so that puts me at 3/5 for March. Not too bad for my first challenge. Congrats to all who made their goal!

[LuvTigger]

Sorry for the delay in posting my final update for March...

I did 7.5/10! Squeezed in that last pound on the last day.
