How's everyone doing so far this week?

Hi Everyone, just checking in. BTW, doing good w8inforthesun (love the name), thanks.
I started my 'new' journey February 1, and so far managed to lose 12 lbs. I am still hoping that I can make 15 lbs by the end of March. Even with the 12 lbs I have noticed that some of my clothes are not quite as tight. I am apple-shaped so everything I own always seems to be small in that middle area.
So today went through my closet and found some nice items that I might be able to wear again easily if I lost another 10 lbs. So that is my motivation for the April challenge! I will be able to have a new wardrobe without spending a penny! Of course if I ever get to my goat weight, I am planning a new wardrobe.
I am trying, which seems to work best for me, a lower carb along with counting calories and logging in everyday. I find that logging helps a great deal, along with the exercise. I do a lot better if I work hard on the cardio.
So my goals are to try to lose between 8lbs at least, log in everyday,drink my water and cardio 5-6 days a week (mainly brisk walking). And to fit into a new top from my closet!
Wishing everyone all the best in their weight loss journey, we can all work together and help each other on this journey downward.0 -
Moving closer to our start date of April1! Are you excited?? We have great goals and we WILL be successful in our journey!0

@w8ingforthesun My goal is to lose 2 kg (4.4lbs). I have lost 43 kg (94.7 lbs) so far, and my weight loss has slow down somewhat. I know it's normal, but it can be frustrating sometimes.

~~~JUST A REMINDER~~~
Your starting weights can be submitted any time between tomorrow, Saturday, March 26 through to Friday, April 1 depending on what day you weigh in.
In order to submit your weight please go to the thread located in Announcements for the applicable week and respond with:
Your Username:
Your Team Name:
Your Current Weight:
There is currently a very long list of individuals on a waiting list that would like to participate. I was surprised on how much interest there was! I could have easily added another 5 teams but I wanted to keep the numbers low, at least for this month. As a result I ask that everyone submit their weights on or before April 1. If not received by end of day April 1 I will assume you are no longer interested in the challenge and your seat will be filled by someone else.
Good luck everyone!! Let the game begin!!! 0 -
Argh Easter time, I have fallen off the wagon a little today and no doubt after the bunny has visited, tomorrow will be the same... so glad it's all over before the challenge starts!!0

You can go ahead and replace me with someone on the waiting list. I am not going to be able to participate right now. Sorry

Hi Team Dude, Where's My Gut!
Wishing you all the best. Let's get ready to {{{rumble!!!}}}...I mean {{{Lose}}} 0 -
Hello team! My name is Rae and I managed to sneak in under the wire! Thanks to whichever person dropped out so I could get in.
So, I'm a pretty regular poster on MFP and I LOVE to do challenges. I'm a retired wife, mom and grandma. I love my family so much but my life has been all about family and work and not very much about me. Since I retired last year, I'm changing that. Good nutrition and exercise are now my healthy habits for a lifetime!
So happy to be a part of this group. Now let's kick some gut AND butt!0 -
My goals for this challenge:
- Lose 10 pounds and get to a healthy weight and BMI
- Exercise at least 30 minutes minimum of 5 days a week
- Drink 64 oz of water daily
- Continue healthy eating habits
- Support and encourage my teammates
- Practice gratitude and count my blessings EVERY day!
