    Current waist: 31"
    Goal waist: 30" end of April.
    (I know it's just an inch, but I'm realistic)

    I'm in, but my goal is slightly diff. I've battled eating disorders for most of my life. I'm in the best point in recovery I've been in in a really long time. But, I can't weigh myself- too triggering. I successfully battled back from anorexia, but now still fight the occasional binge, which keep extra weight on. My goal is to continue normalizing my eating, the weight will come off the more consistent I am w that. My goal is 3 meals, 2 snacks, no eating after dinner- that's been when I am most triggered to binge! I'm so close to the type of recovery I want. Maybe April will be a very happy month for me. I know I'll feel inspired by everyone else's success!!!

    Here's to a great April for us all!

    On the ED-related note, I'll throw in a goal of going 30 days purge-free. Good luck to you, hoping your ED keeps getting more and more manageable :)

    Here goes.....

    We will check in every Monday, but my challenge to you personally for the month is to log everything... Every day! Drink water, and move! If you have a step tracker, try to get in your 10,000 steps every day this month.... If you are already doing 10,000 aim for 12,000.

    Thanks for starting this! My weight loss has slowed to a crawl, so I'll be happy if I can accomplish 1/2 lb a week.
