🗣Comments: We're moving into April on Monday Team!! I am going to a fundraising gala in less than 2 weeks and would like to look my best in a new gown.... so hoping I can shave a few pounds off. On a good note-- I tried on some of my dresses from my closet--- and they are very roomy on me!! YAY!!--- one is a Karl Lagerfeld leather cocktail dress, tags still on (not that I can wear that one now cause it's leather) ---I could not zip it up at all and now it's got room!
LET'S KICK BUTT IN APRIL!!!
Feels good to put on clothes you haven’t been able to fit into it we’re getting tight and there is room. Yay for you!!!!1 -

Woke up with migraine and knees and back killing me but my Master's Degree came so gave up my dinner for bottle of wine that I've been saving for the occasion. My last cheat that I plan for. Even though I felt losy.
Also found out in physical therapy at my 1st appt the my hips are humongous! OMG! So now I know why my legs be shaking when trying to stand to long. I guess this is why I need to get a full length mirror. So now looking for exercises to work out my thighs and buttocks. Cause my top is small but the bottom is like 3 globe sizes. Feeling very dissatisfied with my body but STILL STAYING POSITIVE5 -

@CindyJNC1963 I don't really know where mfp gets it's ideas, I had to disconnect my Fitbit from mfp because it just went crazy with the exercise calorie calculation... I look at my calorie burn but I keep my Fitbit separate from my food logs these days...they don't seem to play nicely together1 -

Almost went over today. Schedule was thrown off. Was home and hungry after missing lunch. So I snacked. Then I had some chocolate after dinner. Was good! 😋
Has anyone tried salsa and light sour cream as a salad dressing? It’s yummy! Have it on my taco salads of course but I’ve used it in my chicken salads as well. Something to just change things up!2 -

Username: Bm00re2u
Week: March Week 4
PW = 129.8 lbs.
CW= 131.4 lbs.
Not upset that I'm back in the 130s, as this is probably mostly added weight from TOM with bloating and whatnot, plus I ate over a little on my birthday. I'm confident I will be back in the 120s in a few days with hard work.
My husband gave me a huge ego boost by saying "Wow, I can really see your progress. Proud of you for sticking with it and meal tracking. You look GOOD! 😉" He has been my personal trainer, so tracking food coupled with strength training has really helped in my progress. Being a part of this group is also a bonus for accountability, so I can't wait to continue into April!2 -
Daily post for Saturday:
Track: kinda
Calories: most likely no..?
Exercise: 100 squats and hours of dancing
Water: about 100 oz
I went to an event here called the Ugly Disco. It was awesome! I was on my feet moving and walking and dancing from 8pm to almost 2am.
I did have some drinks and snacks and afterwards went to an after party and had pizza and cheese and a few mini eclairs. I actually didnt do too bad with the eating, but I didn't log any of that. It was at 1:45am, so not sure it counts for Saturday or Sunday! Haha
I did weigh myself this morning just to see, and was .8 lbs heavier than Sat. Morning. Could be food, could be sore muscles..... but I am happy with it regardless.
I danced so much! It was a blast!! I am going to be hurting for a few days.... hahaha3 -

Great attitude. Nice that your hubby is such a great active supporter. My husband is a great supporter, but not an “active” supporter. More like a side line cheerleader. .lol. Although last summer he did go walking with me a lot after dinner.Username: Bm00re2u

Sounds like a lot of fun.1 -
NSV: Took my measurements today. It’s been a month and a half since my last measure.
Overall I’ve lost 9.5 inches!
Mostly in my waist, abdomen and butt, a few inches over the chest measurements and thighs.
Scale numbers dropping are great but inches might just be better! 😁
