    You're doing Great! Those plateaus can be frustrating, but your hard work and commitment to health and weight loss are paying off! One day at a time and we will get there! <3

    As for me, I'm happy with my progress on this journey so far, but it takes a conscious effort, a lot of will power, and planning everyday to keep moving towards my goals! Lol. I'm down 1.4 lbs since last week's weigh in and 22 lbs since Jan 1st.

    As it gets warmer with more sunshine, I definitely feel more motivated to be active and be outside! Already thinking about my garden even though the ground is still covered in snow! :D

    My goal was to lose 10 pounds for the challenge. I had lost 7.8 pounds until this week. I gained 2 pounds. I may not reach my goal for the challenge, but I will have lost and that's the most important thing. Is this a challenge that is ongoing? I have lost 60 pounds in the last year and need something to reinvigorate me and get me enthusiastic again. I have about another 50 to go.

    Congratulations on your weight loss success! 60 lbs is impressive! I'm sure you already know, but remember sometimes our weight can fluctuate daily a couple lbs just from water retention or hormonal changes too. If you think it may be related to your food choices/intake, then this is a great opportunity to assess that and come up with a plan to move forward. Today is a new day <3 You can still finish strong!

    As for the challenge, I'm not sure if the OP has said she is doing this challenge again after this one is complete. I agree though, I think the challenges help to motivate and keep me focused on my goals. Fingers crossed!

    Congrats on the 22 pound loss JustKeepSwimming! That is great! I am also thinking about my garden, and no snow here. It's supposed to get up to 80 degrees by the end of the week where I am.

    17.8 down. Spent most of this week in the hospital with my dad. Oddly enough hard to eat healthy in a hospital! Hours of cafe being open are limited and other options are vending machines. After a late night stress binge, I brought my own fruit and protein bars to curb my appetite. Exercise is nearly nonexistent so i doubled up when I could. Still managed a loss but not an easy one.

    Weighted in last night with Dr. A and was amazed to be down another 3 lbs in two weeks. Calorie deficit is starting to be less hard to manage. Easter is come next week and there are jelly bellies in my house!! I do not impose my diet restrictions on my family, but I have little will power around those tiny beans of sugar!

    Good luck to you too! Looks like I won't make my goal either, but won't miss it by much, maybe a pound. I'll have to find another challenge. This was helpful.

    This was awesome.... 16.8 pounds down.

    I hope you run another 3-month challenge, was awesome for keeping me accountable and focused on the long-term success vs the weight on the scale right now.

    My goal was to lose 10 pounds and I lost 8.4 pounds. I'll take it.

    Bravo to everyone who is even a wee bit lighter today than you were January 1!

    I was off track in the month of Feb due to illness (that flu going around is nasty). I did get back on track in March and have lost 17lbs total since Jan 1. I am happy with the results.

    I've joined another challenge group but it doesn't have the spreadsheet. There was something about seeing everyone's numbers on the same sheet as mine that was more motivating for me than individual postings.
