    You can do it!
    I'm not going to reach my original goal but I would be happy to check in with you, on this post, every other day to keep us accountable! My revised goal is to lose 8 pounds by Easter. Two pounds per week is achievable and maintainable. Lots of 'ables' in this post!

    You all are doing just fabulous, simply fabulous. I hope you are noticing more strength and less pain...weight is so hard on our bodies. Personally, workouts are getting easier...so, I suppose it is time to up the game again. Good luck everyone. Write more.

    Thank you! You can too! I find the more I check in here, the more I hold myself accountable, and the better I do!

    Also, I took measurements yesterday for the beginning of the month, and I lost 3 inches last month. Progress is happening!

    I gained this week. I worked hard for weeks just to shed a few pounds. The moment I slip, all that effort has gone to waste in a matter of days. WHYYYYY??? :(

    Probably not gonna make my goal by Easter, but I will keep trying!

    I only lost about 0.4 lbs this week but I'm glad I haven't gained. I've been enjoying more food recently, taking a break from obsessing over every little thing I eat. Progress is progress anyway.

    I use to get headaches at LEAST 45% time out of the month, since I started this..... my last headache (knock on wood) was Feb 4, due to the fact that I was getting use to the new style of eating. Had to give up alot of thing ...well alot of JUNK that I loved, but the energy that I have NOW ..... AMAZING!
    KEEP IT UP GUYS AND GOOD LUCK ON THE JOURNEY

    Down 1.2 lbs this week. Just over 5 lbs to go by Easter! 19 days! It's still a lot to lose in that amount of time, but I think I'll get very close. We're almost there. And then we'll need a "Lose 20 lbs by 4th of July" challenge or something like that! ;)

    I don't know what went wrong this week. We ate out more than usual with my mother in law visiting, but I made good choices. I exercised more (walking, yoga, etc.) and drank a ton of water. Still 8 pounds to go by Easter. Probably not going to make it. But I hope I get close.

    Keep going everyone. There's still another week to go, and even though everyone may not meet their goal, you probably weigh less than you did at the start of this. Yay for progress!

    Couldn't agree more!! I won't reach my goal, but I'm close and a heck of a lot closer than I was at the beginning of the year. And I can be very proud of that!

    I made it! My current loss is 21 lbs since I re-started my dieting in late January. Didn't expect to get there a week early (actually, I expected to get here a week late or so), but I'm excited I did. (And even more excited that I'm so close to one-derland again. :smile: )

    Starting Weight: 222
    Easter Goal Weight: 202
    Current Weight: 201
    Next Goal Weight (by memorial day? or maybe before my birthday in July?): 180
    Ultimate GW ...someday: 150ish or 160ish

    Thanks for this challenge! It was a good sub-goal for me. :) This type of thing is a good reminder/motivator, and I like to have many reminders/motivators so that if one of them starts losing its luster, the others are there as a backup. :)

    Awesome job! :D And amazing progress! Can't wait to see more people post their updates since we are so close to Easter now! My weekly weigh in is tomorrow, and then I'll try to weigh again Sunday morning to see then too!
